We had buckwheat sourcream blueberry pancakes with maple syrup and Jones sausauge links two days in a row.

I used 1/2 a package of a gluten-free pancake mix, added about 3/4 cup of buckwheat flour, an egg, about 2/3 cup of sour cream & 1 3/4 cup milk. (I like my pancakes on the thin side.)

The batter was even better the second day after refrigeration, but I added more milk because the batter got stiffer. The pancakes were delicious!!

Sqirming, I know the feeling you describe. I find high protein snacks helpful. (Like peanut butter on banana or sliced apple, a rice cake with peanut butter or safe nuts.) I wonder why our bodies crave protein after going gluten-free. :unsure:

Yes, ciamarie, no egg yolk for the low iodine for the dh. I got glutened about a month ago from a can of refried beans which was the first time I had tried hardly anything that wasn't whole foods. Before that I had gotten back on the iodine & seemed to be doing well.

Thank you you guys for the tips. So more protein & fat, less carbs. Easier to do when I can add iodine back.

Again, Thankssmile.gif

I made this Cinnabon Clone and it rocked. My Celiac neighbors couldn't believe it was gluten-free. My gluten-free daughter was in heaven.

I had one and wasn't hungry until dinner!

Oooooooooo, that sounds so yummy! I bookmarked the recipe for when I've healed enough to give yeast a try.

This may sound odd but sometimes I have unconventional breakfasts. I made myself yummy potato salad.

How did you feel mid morning? Did it help goin with a high protein breakfast?

It was better Marilyn. I ate at 8 but by 11 I was getting what I call the dropsies. This morning I had a banana followed by a bowl of buckwheat about 7:45. In about 10 minutes I'm going to begin making egg white, hash brown, & ham.

Thanks for asking. I'm still trying to figure this all out. Never paid much attention to carbs before as I never had any weight problems. Am now learning what constitutes fast carbs & slow carbs & the glycemic load business.

I amended the second 1/2 of my breakfast by giving hubs 1/2 my hash browns & having egg white & ham plus a piece of flax toast with nutella. Thought this was a better choice.

Will see how this goes.

Berry and Banana Shortcakes with chocolate shavings:)

I made almond flour biscuits and topped them with blueberries, strawberries and banana. Then I put on homemade whipped cream which I didn't add sugar too and then shaved 90% dark chocolate over top. It was delicious and I think if I made a sweeter whipped cream it would make a yummy dessert.

Squirming, I'm glad you're feeling better. I find it helpful to eat like a diabetic in the early smorning and afternoon (small portions, low carbs, frequent snacks). I must have a good lunch. DP always wants dinner early, I always want it late and light.

I still have a problem with eating in the morning, but liked my puffed brown rice cereal the banana and milk this morning, didn't even need sugar or honey. The unbelievable thing is that I bought it for $2 at a gluten-free expo. Wish I'd bought more!

Alex, your breakfast sounded delish! And in case you don't know, Squirming, almond flour used for bisquit making is low carb, high protein, might be something you like and can live with. Good luck!

squirmingitch Veteran

Alex's breakfast DOES sound delish ~~~ ANY time of day or night!

I'm going to have to try almond flour myself. Biscuits --- ohhhhh I miss my biscuits. Since I began cooking as a kid I've always made my own biscuits. And they weren't drop biscuits either. Rolling pin & biscuit cutter -- what you'd call baking powder biscuits.

Well Marilyn I got to 11:20 today before the dropsies started to make themselves known. Thanks for caring & asking. I'm going to lick this thing sooner or later.cool.gif

Louisianna strawberries are here, so I had a big bowl of strawberries with real cream. The berries are so sweet that I don't need sugar.

squirmingitch Veteran

Steak, pancakes, flax toast with nutella & a migraine.

Apple, Pear, Blueberry, Spinach, Kale smoothie.

A bit later -- eggs scrambled with onion and topped with cheese.

I need some quick and protien ideas! I get up at 5 a.m. and I'm so sleepy, I usually get only coffee in. I eat a rice cake or two on the job. I'm tired of boiled eggs on the run.

squirmingitch Veteran

Add some peanut butter to the rice cake. I'm eating one right now. That will give you approx. 8 grams of protein.

squirmingitch Veteran

Began with a brown rice cake topped with peanut butter, then had an apple with peanut butter, then had a tangerine, followed by some pineapple. I have a feeling I'll be looking for more to stuff my gullet with before too long.cool.gif

      My mother also has celiac disease, and one of her symptoms for many years before her diagnosis was TMJ. I believe it took her many years on a gluten-free diet before this issue went away.

      Ear pain and ringing your entire life may or may not be TMJ related but could be something else. A good TMJ exam would be helpful to rule that out as a potential cause from a dentist who treats that. I have teens as well as adults of all ages who suffer from TMJ issues so it’s not a certain age when it shows up.

      Not sure if related to coeliac disease but my ear ringing  has stepped up a notch since diagnosis.  Even since a child silence really hurts my ears - there is always a really loud noise if there is no other noise in a quiet room - but my brain has learned to filter it out.  Since diagnosis in my forties I also get a metallic ringing in my ears, sometimes just one, sometimes both.  But it comes and goes.   My sister also suffers now, we are both in our fifties, but she is not a coeliac, so for all I know it could just be an age thing.  I do get occasional stabbing pain in my ears but that has been all my life, and I do appear to be vulnerable to outer ear infections too.  So not a particularly helpful reply here, but I suppose what I am trying to say is it might be related but then again it could just be one of those things.   I think in the UK where I live doctors like you to report if you get tinnitus in just the one ear.  I reported mine but no cause was found.  Most of the time it is nothing but sometimes it can have a cause that can be treated, so perhaps worth reporting to your GP.

      Welcome to the forum, and thank you for sharing your story! It sounds like you’ve been through an incredible journey with your health, and it’s no wonder you’re starting to piece things together and wonder about celiac disease. Your experiences—from childhood through adulthood—paint a picture of symptoms that are often associated with celiac disease, though they can overlap with other conditions as well. The recurring sinus infections, being underweight as a child, chronic gastrointestinal issues, nutrient-related symptoms like cramps, and the persistent fatigue and brain fog are all things that many people with undiagnosed celiac report. Your reactions to gluten also stand out. The improvement in symptoms when you reduce or remove gluten, followed by the resurgence of pain and other problems when you reintroduce it, is a common experience for those with celiac or gluten intolerance. While your frustrations and trials with elimination diets might not have given you concrete answers yet, they’ve provided valuable clues. It’s also worth noting that celiac disease doesn’t always present in the classic way. Many people, like yourself, may not experience severe gastrointestinal distress but instead have “atypical” or extraintestinal symptoms like joint pain, menstrual irregularities, fatigue, and more. It’s a condition that can go undiagnosed for years, especially when symptoms are subtle, sporadic, or mistakenly attributed to other issues. The fact that you’ve sought alternative approaches to feel better shows just how determined you’ve been to find relief, even without a definitive diagnosis. Given your history and how your body responds to gluten, it would be worth exploring celiac disease further with a medical professional. Before removing gluten completely, it’s important to get tested while you’re still eating it, as going gluten-free beforehand can affect the accuracy of the results. A blood test for celiac antibodies (like tTG-IgA) is usually the first step, and if positive, an endoscopy may follow to confirm the diagnosis. If the testing process feels daunting, keep in mind that getting answers could give you clarity and help guide your health decisions going forward. Whatever the outcome, you’ve already made significant strides in identifying triggers and managing your symptoms. Your awareness and persistence are key, and this community is here to support you as you continue to seek answers. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of blood test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

      Hi, I am new!  (Although I've used this forum as a reference over the past couple of years.) I'm just looking for some initial reactions to if I actually might possibly have Celiac Disease, or if I'm reaching here.  I have had lifelong health issues and not once has a doctor suggested I look into celiac. I always thought it was basically an extreme allergy that needed an EpiPen, and I know that's not me.  However, I stumbled upon some symptoms, realized I was wrong, and after some research I'm almost shocked at what I have found.  It seems like anything I've ever struggled with has a potential correlation to this disease!  I'm in my 40's, now.  Here is my journey to date... Issues as a Kid: tons of allergies, and had sinus infections all the time... however I didn't have hayfever-like allergies and the scratch tests didn't register much, it was more that when I was exposed to allergens (like say I spent hours with a cat) I was certain to get a sinus infection and it lasted months. was extremely skinny and everyone always said I was anorexic (I wasn't) always getting sick and the illnesses hang on for a long time always cold (my favorite thing to do is sit in front of a space heater or be out in 90 degree weather) intermittent bad constipation (still happens but not as severe) horrible toe cramps that would wake me up in the middle of the night As I got older (teenage/college years): acid reflux diagnosis learned that beer made me EXTREMELY sick, cannot tolerate it horrible issues with menstrual cycle - I wasn't regular, had awful cramps and PMS, sometimes cannot function the first couple of days night terrors/sleep walking more stomach issues - I learned I couldn't have black coffee.  I often had issues especially when traveling.  For example I finally noticed a pattern that I could never, ever eat at a hotel buffet spread - it would always make me sick afterwards. More recent problems: always tired periodic pain on right side that can be so painful I can't stand up straight. Have had all kinds of scans and doctors always say I'm fine.  I was so sure I had gallstones or my liver was failing but... nope. chest pain brain fog not diagnosed but many, many ADHD symptoms lots of inflammation, am overweight now toe cramps evolved into leg/calf cramps None of my symptoms from any era of my life ever really resolved, except I went from being skinny to ~20/30 pounds overweight, and as I got older I got less outright sinus infections.  Largely due to the pain in my right side and the fact that I always, always seem to pick up every illness, especially when traveling, I started pursuing alternative medicine paths... I did the Pritikin lifestyle, I tried an elimination diet, I followed the Root Cause Protocol, I did a Leptin reset.  A lot of these paths recommend removing gluten, and in the past year or so some of my symptoms have gone away!  Specifically less issues with toe cramps, sometimes the side pain would go away for a long time, and my acid reflux got much better.  But, because I was never diagnosed with any specific intolerance, I wasn't militant about the gluten - I had cut out dairy, soy, all kinds of things.  So I would say cross-contamination is ok, or make an exception at a group outing. Then one day, I just got frustrated and ate some normal slices of pizza... and my side pain came back!  I started doing research and now I'm here and wondering... could I have actually had this my whole life??!? Thoughts and observations welcome.
