I remember in the forth grade when a girl who knew I had Celiac,came up to me and put bread in my face,touching my lips and getting some of it in my mouth, she started laughing, then I remember running away crying wondering why someone would do such a thing,I also remember when I was in the 3rd grade a teacher staring at me because instead of bread I just had the meat, and her coming up to me asking why I do that, she didn't mean any harm, she was just curious but she made me feel so bad about mCalifornia Firm Recalls Chorizo Sausages Due to Misbranding and an Undeclared Wheat

I'm learning slowly the limits to allopathic medicine: if the trouble is not a pathogen or some huge physical catastrophe, they often don't understand the trouble. So what a relief to find some others who have had the itching and can link it to ingestion of gluten. I had been off gluten for a week and the itchIngredient Labeling

Off to Portland I was so happy and determined for so long about going to the college in Portlant that nothing was getting me down. I was like walking on clouds.

Up until senior year in Highschool, I did hurt myself, usually when I failed at something and or got too emotionaly distraught. I used objects or my hands to hit myself. One moody day I did successfully knock my jaw out of alignment, that hurt more than I thought it would. I vowed to God if He healed me I'd never do it again. The Chiropractor couldn't get my jaw realigned, I had waited too long to go see him. Hurting myself was wrong and didn't fix anything, obviously.

I've had issues since I can remember. In kindergarten I remember thinking all the other kids hated me, that there was something seriously different about me, something wrong. These thoughts were most likely from my negative family, seemed to be passed down. I believed those negative things and it hurt. Then they sent me to chiropractors at age five for scoliosis, which I did have, x-rays proved that there were three curves. Could be debilitating if it wasn't controlled soon.

Hi guys, I'm a chef that cooks gluten-free dishes from starters to desserts. I'm not celiac myself but wanted to ask a question. "What are the dishes that you miss because of being a celiac or on gluten-free diet? It can be anything!" I ask this because I love cooking gluten-free: sticky toffee puddings, ravilois, fresh breads, bread and butter puddings, fresh pastas and so on. I would love your feedback instead of me guessing what to cook. Thank you, ScotWaiting For Nov1 Blood Test!...back On Wheat!
