2009 Newbie

Hi Everyone,

This group has been great, I have learnt so much in the last few days just by reading your stories and experiances. I went to the grocery store for shopping

it took me like an hour to buy a handful of things, since most of the stuff I am drooling over unfortunately I cant have or a gluten-free version of it isnt available (i.e waffles, pizza, doughnuts....)

I was wondering if any of you all know of any mail order companies that sell some of the hard to get gluten-free stuff, I live overseas so i guess i would have to have it shipped either via fedex or express mail, but if there are other international folks here let me know if you have had a similar problem?

oh btw those of you who care I managed to get today (gluten-free coocies, gluten-free pasta, gluten-free flour though i have no idea how to make bread:), and lots and lots of gluten-free rice cakes, unfortunaely could not find any cereal dunno if they even make them gluten-free?

Thanks again folks

They do--EnviroKids has a couple good ones that are gluten-free--they go by strange names like "Gorilla Munch" and stuff-- they're just different names for cereals that you'd probably know better as corn flakes, frosted flakes, or corn pops. I'm not sure if they ship overseas, but I'd just contact all the companies--phone or e-mail and see if they'd ship overseas...maybe they'd only do it in bulk, but at least you'd know.

Chebe bread offers alot including dry mixes and frozen doughs for numerous things. It has a very good taste as well. I'm not sure where they will ship it I know they ship it here but I'm not sure about elsewhere. Their website is www.chebe.com

Kinnikinnick foods is in Canada and I ordered donuts and man do they taste soo good. Again I am not sure where they will ship it to I know they ship here to the US . Their website is www.kinnikinnick.com

Also Foods By George has some great plain English Muffins and Cinnamon English Muffins. I love them both toasted. You might want to look them up too.

Also Envirokidz has some gluten-free cereal and alot of good gluten-free products.

Hope this helps you a little bit :D

Recommend the purchase of the food guide book from The Celiac Sprue Assn www.csaceliacs.org as it has a food company index with addresses & websites in the back pages.

I seem to do all my online gluten-free shopping exclusively at the Gluten Free Trading Company now. They have an AMAZING selection, and I've received wonderful service from them.

      Thank you! Eating out/take out has been half of my meals for a while so you are correct that this will be my biggest challenge. This has been a journey and I appreciate your help!

      "Bonus points". I like that analogy!  At this point, the following article might be helpful: Eating out will be the biggest challenge and will present the most threat to avoiding gluten since you don't have control over how food is prepared and handled back in the restaurant kitchen. Become comfortable with asking questions of restaurant staff and requesting that your food be cooked in clean pots/pans/surfaces that haven't been used for gluten containing foods since last washed. In time, you will become more comfortable with taking control in these situations and learn to be appropriately assertive. One thing that will take time for you to get a handle on is how sensitive you are to minor amounts of gluten such as you might get in cross contamination scenarios. Each of us is different in that sense and there is no substitute for personal experience. When in doubt, however, avoid foods that you feel may be significantly cross contaminated. Better safe than sorry. In time, you will develop a sixth sense about these things.

      Thank you!  Yes - labs are above but Deamidated Gliadin was super high, tTG was a weak positive and Immunoglobulin A was way below normal which gives "bonus points" to the positive tests because it can also cause false negative results.  This information confirms my thinking and I really appreciate your feedback!!!

      By far, the most likely cause of villous atrophy in the Marsh 3 range is celiac disease but there are other possible causes. Did you also have positive antibody tests? My guess is that when you see your physician he/she will declare you to have celiac disease. Of course, the ultimate proof of the pudding will be if you experience definite improvement in symptoms after going gluten free which, since you have now completed testing, you should begin to do.

      Hi again - I received the biopsy results but haven't had follow up appointment with Dr. yet.  Wondering if you could comment on this: "Duodenum, random, Biopsy (Cold Forceps): MILD VILLOUS BLUNTING WITH PROMINENT INTRAEPITHELIAL LYMPHOCYTES, CONSISTENT WITH SPRUE (MARSH TYPE 3A). See Comment. Negative for Infectious Organisms, Dysplasia or Malignancy. COMMENT: While characteristic, the histologic findings are not diagnostic for gluten-sensitive enteropathy / celiac disease. A number of additional entities can enter into the differential diagnosis of celiac disease based on the histologic features, including tropical sprue, bacterial overgrowth / stasis, unclassified sprue, specific food allergies, many drugs including NSAIDs, olmesartan and immune checkpoint inhibitors, and a wide range of autoimmune diseases including adult-onset autoimmune enteropathy, diabetes, thyroiditis, lupus and multiple sclerosis and occasionally common variable immune deficiency. History of drug take, celiac serologies, HLA-DQ status and response to a gluten-free diet might be a key for a definitive diagnosis" They say "consistent with Sprue (Marsh Type 3A)" and then comment that the findings are not diagnostic for celiac disease.  I thought Marsh type 3 was conclusive (and I know that 3A is the best outcome as it relates to intestinal damage). Is this just normal caveat language or am I missing something?  I had appt scheduled for tomorrow but Dr. is sick and now rescheduled to over a week from now.  Appreciate any insight you can offer in the mean time.  Thanks!!
