    Please do not take this member’s response to heart.   You can look up and see her four last unsympathetic responses.   She rarely contributes and has not been following your previous posts.     I can only imagine that she is having an ...

    Sounds like a toxic relationship. People aren’t always accepting of changes that alter the culture of the relationship. As my teenagers say, “You do you,” and focus on blessing yourself with health. Negativity makes us all unwell.

    It's not easy. I try to explain in ways they can relate to, like you know I can't just go down the flour aisle at the grocery store, because I would breathe in flour and that goes down the same way as eating it.  I could not help with ...

    Just as some foods can be toxic to you, so called “friends” can also be toxic.  Maintaining emotional health is just as important.  I have a few true friends that I can count on in times of trouble.  True friends.  The kind of friend...

    Can not wear a hat?  I limit my hat use by using a pretty umbrella when walking to pick up school children or watch a game.  Hubby will use a manly golf umbrella to keep cool or allow two people some shade.  Consider umbrellas (if you...

    I do not have any ideas except to research other autoimmune disorders.  Once you have one,  you can develop more AI issues.  Any possibility of drug side effects?  For example the FDA has a black box warning in a class of antibiotics call...

    Hi Johna,
    I think its pretty usual to have GI symptoms after first starting the gluten-free diet.  One of the possible issues is bacterial overgrowth.  When your intestines begin to heal, the surface area of the villi increases a...

    If I were dealing with DH or ataxia.....you bet I would not take ANY risks that would allow a potential exposure to gluten.  Just trying to avoid another autoimmune disorder is enough to keep me on track.

    Hi Squirrel,
