WHAT ELSE IS THERE TO EAT!!!!! JEEZ! I don't think I could do that if I wanted to. I'm a total carnivore and cheese hound.

I am a total carnivore too...love my meat...I think just reducing the overall load is what counts, so I'll do it in the other areas mostly.

Just popping in really quick, will have to come back and read to catch up....

An important tip about steaming the tortillas, do not let the water boil up into the steamer basket! That would be very bad, you will end up with a pile of mushy gooey ground corn. You want the water below the bottom of the steamer basket and as it boils let the steam come up through the little holes. Hopefully that makes sense?

Susan, they aren't very expensive (I don't think). I have a metal one, not sure what material, and it adjusts to fit different pan sizes. like an unfolding flower looking thing, hard to describe, bt it comes in handy. I steam vegetables with it, and tamales, and now the corn tortillas.

Rinne, beautiful picture!!!

I must confess I have not followed the thread about Megan, I haven't had much time to stray from here. I will have to read what is going on. She will definitely be in my thoughts and prayers as well.

Karen, looks like you are the trouble maker in Rachelville :lol: We have all thought about you and your "D", I wish somebody could find you a solution.

Be back later!

Rinne,

It's so good to finally see you. :P

Jeny,

I don't know about your situation with the different computers.

Karen,

Did you see the post about gliadin foods that someone posted earlier.

What's the thing with altoids? Aren't they a breath freshener? I've noticed on other threads that you are the altoids lady.

Susan,

How are you doing today. What does TMI mean anyway?

Rachel,

Have fun today.

Cissie,

Hope you feel better real soon.

Julie,

I'll keep that in mind....steaming corn tortillas.

Donna,

You've been doing lots of research lately. Did the plums settle well with you?

Patti,

Sounds like you are feeling good too.

Cecile,

For when you get a chance to get on here. Hope you're feeling good today.

Robbin,

Are you there? I forget whether you posted earlier today or not. Are you feeling better today?

Vincent, Ryan, Picard,

I trust all is well with our "fellow" residents.

All the other gals I missed, hello.

Debbie,

Can we add you to the list of jobs for Rachelville?

Yes, it was a little slow at work today, so when there's no work I can play. Well, I think the warning from Penguin was kind of applicable (reminding me of the prune affect, lol)...but that was okay because I'd had C for a couple of days. :lol:

We have something in common--My baby sister is 8 years younger than I am. I always took care of her when we were kids, I took her everywhere with me! We have always been very close. I have another sister who is 4 years younger. We also fought a lot when we were kids, and only now, in the last 2 years or so are we finally getting to be close.

Patti, yes it is great to have sisters, I feel very fortunate to have them. :)

Andrea, what an adorable picture of your children, the littlest one looks like he might be a little mischievious. :)

Cissie, I hope you are feeling better.

Thank you for the compliments, it's nice to be seen. :)

Oh and I don't get the Altoids thing either, does this mean I have to go to Google to find out? You mean I have to leave Rachelville? :lol:

      My POINT trents, was actually related to food more than inhalers causing your issue.

      Thanks Christina. The Granola products I tried were marked Gluten Free so supposed to be suitable. I've had many tests done but no results yet but I get the results in next day or so. I may well have these issues due to deficiencies. Just wanted to get some anecdotal feedback about the issue before I see the GE specialist If and...

I can't eat any gluten free breads from stores & certain pasta is a no too...others are OK. You may want to eliminate certain foods and see if your problem clears up.  2. Check with the inhaler manufacturer to ensure it's gluten free. Other than those two points if it continues a throat scope by an ENT may be needed to rule out other things.

      Hi @Farralley and welcome to the form I have had soreness, ulcers and also find my tongue and inside my mouth is very sensitive and blisters easily (blood blisters) if I bite something sharp.  Ulcers were a big issue twice before I was diagnosed, the doctors didn't put two and two together and think of coeliac disease, but I had two episodes where I had so many, even eating toast and marmalade made me think I was chewing glass. In your case, what you are describing could well be due to a reaction to cross contamination, or perhaps even a sensitivity to oats?  Are you consuming gluten free oats - i.e. certified pure oats, free from contamination?  You will probably know that coeliacs cannot eat standard oats, they have to be oats that are grown and processed separately from gluten containing grains, and certified as such.  But even then, a small percentage of coeliacs cannot tolerate pure oats, in the short term while they are recovering, or even in the longer term, unfortunately.  It took me eight years before I stopped reacting to even pure oats and now eat them with no issues, but for some a reaction to the protein avenin in oats can be either a temporary or long term issue. Another issue is you may be short of iron or B12 and other B vitamins, which can leave your mouth sore and prone to ulcers.  Have you had these levels tested recently?  If the burning continues, I'd definitely ask your doctors to do another blood test. Lastly - you may have burning mouth syndrome, do have a look into that, which could just be a temporary reaction to something - food, a new toothpaste, reflux? For now, in your shoes I'd probably keep an eye on any recurrences and perhaps keep a food diary to see if there is a pattern.  Have the blood test to check for deficiencies, and try to eat soft, bland food for a few days to help recovery along. Hope this helps, Cristiana

      Hi all I was diagnosed wuth Coeliac Disease about 9 months ago after my GP was investigating chronic anaemia. I had an endoscopy and 'total atrophy of the villa' was observed. I have recently had test to check fir other nutrient deficiencies. The test resilts will be shared with me soon during a visit to the Gastro Entrologist.  My concern is a sore mouth lining. I'm not certain but thought that consumption of a gluten free Granola which contained freeze dried berries seems to coincide with the soreness.. it's taken weeks and a range of over-the-counter remedied to reduce the soreness.  I've also been casting around for a remedy and a genuine cause. Perhaps foolishly I  purchased another similar product ( no frozen berries) and my mouth has become a lot sorer almost immediately.  No doubt my doctor will have some ideas. Just wondering if  1. Others had mouth soreness 2. Others had difficulty with gluten-free Granola-like cereal. TThans in advance. Farralley     .

Concerning the two antibody tests I suggested, the "total IGA" is not a test per se to detect celiac disease but to check for IGA deficiency. If you are IGA deficient, the test scores for individual IGA tests will be artificially low and can generate false negatives. The TTG-IGA test is the most popular test ordered by physicians when checking for celiac disease, and considered to be the centerpiece of celiac disease antibody testing, but it is not the only one. Ideally, others would be ordered but cost containment in medicine being what it is, physicians seldom order a "full celiac panel" at the outset. Here is an overview of the tests that can be run:
