Yes, He works when I let HIM!! I just discovered that a pill I've been taking daily for "joint health" doesn't say "gluten free".. only "wheat free" I've got a call iinto the company..I'm hoping that maybe this is the culpret.. I have to be getting gluten somewhere.. The only problem is..I think I was feeling bad prior to taking it.. And I was under...

Thanks Dessa, I'll also ask my GP for a prescription. I'm on Medicare and I'm finding that it helps with a lot of these items.. Also thanks for telling me about eating left overs.. Duh!!! You are right, I was in the "gotta have eggs and bacon" mode.. I miss my oatmeal!!!! Whine and cry!! My knee woke me up a little while ago..major pain...

The TENS unit has made a difference in my knee.. It doesn't hurt nearly as much.. I'm encouraged.. I see the PT tomorrow and I'll see if I can get one..She also uses the duel modality.. I'm going to ask her to use it on my SI and see if that also helps.. If so, it would be a wonderful answer for me.. I loaned my exercise bike to a man who had open heart...

Interestingly enough the physical therapist used a "TENSs unit" on my knee and back today.. Both are so much better right now.. How long will it last???? It sounds like I might be able to purchase one??? But I've been so tired since I got home .. feel like I'd been hit by a truck????? I must be getting some glutin somewhere..The fybromyalgia seems...

It's hard to pick a favorite isn't it?? I guess the one I come back to time and again..is Proverbs 3:5-8 "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding ..In all your ways acknowledge HIM and He will make your paths straight. Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and shun evil. This will bring health to your body and...

Hi Dessa, Thanks for answering Nicole!!! You and I have much the same problems.. Overweight, arthritis and muscle pain.. I'm having a lot more discomfort since starting the PT.. Had to use my rollator this afternoon while cooking .. It made it possible for me to sit and roll from place to place.. Standing for any length of time has become really hard...

Hi Nicole.. I'm hoping some of the others will read this and respond to you.. I'm so new at this message board that I'm not sure how it works.. So hopefully some of the ones who really understand this will respond.. It sounds like some of my symptoms..which at one time before I was diagnoses with Celiac disease..I thought was fybromyalgia..( I'm still...

I'm laughing as I read your posts.. Being a MtLady from the West anyone knows that "Chicken Fried Steak" is made with wild game!!! At least that was the way I was raised.. Never in my life have I heard of a "half moon" unless it was on the out house.. Are we funny or what??? MtLady

Oh my goush ChelE!! Consider yourself hugged!!! I have a freezer full of elk meat ( wonderful stuff!!) and use to make chicken fried steak with it but haven't since going on the diet.. My family will be so blessed tonight!! By the way, does anyone have a good meal loaf receipt??? and I use to make a Chocolate mayonnaise cake using Miracle Whip...

How amazing!! Some of you are allergic to bandaids also!!! My last surgery was a nightmare because some of the tape wounds were worse than the incision.. amazing!!! I keep reading your posts and finding the very things that have caused me so much grief over the years.. MtLady

Thanks for all the encouragement.. It really helps just to know you are there!!! You asked why I can't exercize.. To name a few: Age, fybromyalgia, and arthritis.. Location and limited income.. I have started P.T. and it has flared up the fybro.. It's hard not to become discouraged when that happens because I get my hopes up..Well, I'll bet you know the...

[ It's interesting reading all your posts about exercise and diet.. One wonders what an overweight celiac does who honestly can't exercise anymore??? I'm sure some of you will say .. "you really can if you try hard enough".. and I'm smiling because once upon a time.. I would have also said that..and probably did.. If there is someone else out there who...

Kathleen.. I would also like to have th information about the EMAIL weight-loss group for celiacs.. MtLady

This is so neat!!! I feel like I've been given a big gift!!! Thank you each one.. My time with the Spine/pain Dr.. was informative.. I came out with a wad of prescriptions for PT/OT starting next week.. An MRI and Xrays ... I'm going to get a walker so that I can get into our favorite spots and Thanks to your help and encouragement.. I had a day free of...

Thank you so much each one for your input!! You have no idea what it means to me to be in contact with someone(s) like me.. So many encouraging ideas.. It's so comforting to know you are there and are also having problems with the gluten free breads, etc.. My cravings are impossible to deal with and no amount of "will power" is working.. So I'll go back...
