I am DYING for a dang soft pretzel.......why have I not been able to find anything like one since I've been diagnosed...and WHY is it that when you get a little tipsy off of some weekend social activities that you CRAVE gluten. My boyfriend is amazing, luckily...because I wanted pizza so horribly this weekend and luckily he didn't allow it! And I'm talking Domino's...I know there's gluten-free pizza but it isn't the same :(

I saw a recipe for them - I think on Pamelas website, using her biscuit and pancake mix. I haven't tried it yet though, but I've been craving sof pretzels too so maybe I'll try it this weekend. I'll let you know if it works!

We made soft pretzels a few months ago and they turned out really well. I wish I knew where I put the recipe. If I find it, I'll post it. The pretzels were very similar to Auntie Anne's. Now if only I could duplicate their sweet mustard...

I don't have an answer on the pretzel but on the craving question. One possible reason why you are craving gluten foods when you party is because you may be getting glutened or CCed by what you are drinking. Gluten has an addictive nature, like with a cig for a past smoker if you get a little bit it will set off the 'I need more' reaction in the brain. Many celiacs will also get much more intoxicated off of a gluten beverage which will then lower the inhibitions and make risky behavior much more likely. Use a lot of caution with your beverages when out.

Wow... You're the only person I've ever heard say that about getting more intoxicated off of glutenous beverages than gluten free. I always just thought I was nuts because I used to be a two beer queer and now I can drink like a fish. Hmmmm... I guess it's NOT all in my head. Odd enough, the type of drunk has also changed for me.

I just came across a soft pretzel recipe too. I'm going to try it soon!!

I've never heard anyone say that either. I don't think it's possible to get glutened off of your own bottle of Chardonney...I wasn't really partying just casually enjoying time with loved ones...I guess that makes sense but I crave pizza on the regular...just because where I work its always around...and boy does it smell delicious. thanks for the advice!!! :P

      Looking for recommendations, most have “unsafe” oat ingredients

      @cristiana, milk is also a good source of magnesium, another very important nutrient in nervous system/mood health.
    • trents
      @cristiana, no, I'm asking if, when you eat out, do you actually experience symptoms of gluten exposure apart from any consideration of blood antibody test scores?

      Like you, I was a silent celiac. I was largely asymptomatic insofar as GI symptoms were concerned. The first real evidence, retrospectively, of having celiac disease was the development of mildly but persistently elevated liver enzymes which initially was discovered when I tried to donate blood at age 37. That was in about 1987. Of course, my PCP checked me for all the hepatitis varieties but cold not find any reason for the elevated liver enzymes. I was also slipping into mild anemia by the time I was in my late 40's and had developed some occasional loose stool and oily stool. My PCP had no clue. I was really concerned about the liver enzymes as they were steadily increasing though never got to alarming levels. My PCP threw his hands up and said during one office visit, "I don't know why your enzymes are elevated. Maybe that's just the way your are." Well, that was not a satisfactory answer. This was about year 2000 and it was not well known that one of the atypical symptoms of celiac disease is elevated liver enzymes. In fact, it happens in about 18% of celiacs. Finally, I booked an appointment with a GI doc who tested me right away for celiac disease and I was positive, both for blood work and biopsy. Within a few months of eliminating gluten my liver enzymes had normalized. But it took 13 years to get a diagnosis. And by that time I had developed osteopenia. Sorry for the long-winded story. My point is, celiac disease can be very slow in developing. By the time symptoms manifest themselves to the extent where they get your attention such that you seek testing, much damage can already be done to body systems. You and your son are very smart to be be pursuing this thing early in his life and let me encourage you, that whatever the next round of testing reveals, you continue to get testing done on a regular basis.

      Initially I was going to re-post all of the threads that have people stating they drink or recommend RO water.  There are just too many to post, so I'll recommend using the search feature here to find them all.  There are currently 4 pages worth of posts with people mentioning or recommending RO water/filtration systems.  Granted, some of the search results are from this thread. For me, it causes major issues with my stomach and as mentioned, there is no way I will ever intentionally drink it again.  As we know, everyone's body is different.  I am certainly not looking for a debate, but do highly advise anyone considering RO water to do their own research. Consider starting with this Google search:  Is reverse osmosis water safe to drink long term?
