  1. try canyon bake house products and mission gluten free wraps both taste great and canyon house makes bagels and all different types of bread that are great and i’ve never had a reaction to either/ Target sells both
  2. i was just reading the articles relating celiac disease to higher risks of lymphomas both TCell and Non Hodgkins and it terrified me - i thought that by eating gluten-free and maintaining this lifestyle the small intestine would heal and keep inflammation down - Although most of the studies show the risk to be higher it also says it’s not sort of definite -...
  3. i have gotten spasms like that here and there and pains in my shoulders and back - i can say that i’ve felt it when i’ve eaten something that may have gotten contaminated but i’ve also felt it other times - it usually goes away but i’d try taking some magnesium and vitamin d
  4. the lifestyle change can be tough at the beginning but once you get used to it you will find so many gluten free alternatives that are great! i’ve been in this journey for one year now and i feel so full of energy so less fatigued - most of my physical symptoms are gone and my levels were a bit over the normal range (aug 21) - i worked hard and the reward o...
  5. hi again i am still having this ongoing issue viewing my notifications - i do not see the bell icon on my account anywhere - all i see is the number of notifications at the top right corner of my screen but it gets blocked off by another screen -can someone take screen shots step by step of their account to show me how to get to my notifications
  6. can someone tell me what i’m doing wrong? i go on my account to check my notifications and read replies and when i click on upper right hand corner it shows me this instead - when i X out it still doesn’t let me see my notifications
  7. i agree - during my first 3 months i wasn’t gaining any weight but from months 4 to present i’ve gained 12 pounds and look and feel so much healthier - i also felt very hungry in the beginning - as long as ur eating clean and healthy you will see a gain in weight as you heal
  8. it took me roughly 3-4 months before i started to see weight gain - your body has to heal
  9. i look forward to being in the range by my 1 year range
  10. i would say the blunting is a clear indicator of celiac - your levels are extremely high as well - id urge u to start eating gluten free and see how healthy you will become 👍🏼i saw my GI on 8/13 to get my blood work done - 7.5 months post dx - my IgG and IgA levels initially were 156 and 106 and today i’m happy to report that they’ve dropped to 31.2 and ...
  11. i have had twitching muscles and on and off pins and needles and aches - they almost disappeared after my third or fourth month of being gluten free- i’m on month 7 now waiting on my updated blood work! my GI says i look so healthy - my eyes clear and my skin much healthier - yes these are real symptoms of celiac - they will mostly go away and return here a...
  12. i was the same way when first diagnosed - i think i made my GI swear that i won’t get lymphoma - and he promised me that as long as i eat gluten free the chances are highly unlikely - in his 25 years of being a dr he never had a celiac patient get lymphoma once they stopped gluten- in fact eating gluten free can keep you very healthy and less likely of g...
  13. my period stopped at age 47 - early 47 and prior i had cycles spot on every 28 days - i’ve been gluten free for 6 months now feelimg wonderful and about 2 weeks ago i felt pms symptoms all over again - tender boobs heaviness tired moody and crampy - as i used the bathroom one day to urinate i wiped and saw pinkish twinge on paper which only lasted one day -...
  14. yes i am - my gyno was the one that said it can awaken since i stopped on the earlier side of age/ it’s intermittent spotting at this point nothing crazy but i did read that if ur body is absorbing nutrients and ur eating healthy you can awaken it 🤔
  15. i still do like this week i have sharp pains under my ribs - i haven’t felt that in months / so i know i got contaminated but i’m trying to stay positive and know it will subside - i’ve gotten so much energy back and don’t feel as sluggish and tired as i used to
  16. just muscle pain then due to anxiety
  17. i’ve had flank pain on both sides shoulder pain and neck pain - got x-rays taken and were normal - once i began eating gluten free it all went away - i think a few days ago i accidentally got contaminated with something in a plate of pasta i ate - i have a bad pinchy feeling in both my ribs sore like and i feel twitching pain in my back along with headache -...
  18. i have had pins and needle pains and weird odd feelings and pain here and there and still do after 6 months of eating gluten free - they do subside though i take vitamin d vitamin b 12 magnesium and iron plus a probiotic - give it some time and don’t panic - they do generally subside by eating clean but if it becomes worse see a dr
  19. did u ever had your period awaken after going gluten free? i went through menopause at 47 - i’m almost 49 and was dx with celiac 6 months ago and have been gluten free since - all of a sudden last week after using bathroom i wiped and saw twinge of pink/red - also have had pms symptoms for last 2 weeks - my gyno says it can awaken - she is unaware of my c...
  20. i went through menopause early as well i’m 48 last period i had was in jan of 2020 and i got dx with celiac in jan of 2021 - i’ve been gluten free 6 months now and this last ten days i have tender boobs and all symptoms of a period coming - this past friday after going to bathroom i wiped and saw pink/red as if period was returning !!! i got so scared - i...
  21. i’m the same i’m gluten free now 6 months and in last 2 i’ve gained 10 pounds - not what i needed my weight was normal prior to dx - normal for my height is what i was referring to - i’ve gained more around belly and thighs which i don’t like however i am feeling much better so i’m assuming i’m healing - i watch what i eat too and i’m having a hard time los...
  22. that’s so great! i had no major symptoms either but anemia was one - i’m going to get tested mid july at my 6 month point - i’m hoping my levels have dropped like yours / ❤️
