I just wanted to share what I did for a pumpkin pie crust. I crushed a bag of gluten free ginger snaps and mixed it with melted butter. I spread it in the pie plate and otherwise did the pie filling as always. I use the recipe on the Libby's pumpkin can. I also have just made a "pie" with the filling, no crust. I cook it as directed on the can. Everyone...

Does anyone have restaurant suggestions for Cocoa Beach and St. Augustine Florida? Thanks in advance Suze

My hip has been hurting (almost constant sharp pain radiating to knee) for about a month. I have a bad back so it does hurt off and on for years. But today most of my joints ache/weak. Shoulders, elbows, wrists, ankles, neck. Especially my wrists. Now I'm wondering if the hip is related. These aches are new. I made a huge mistake and was most likely...

Just a heads up about a drug manufacturer. Watson Pharmaceuticals is not a gluten free facility! I spoke with a pharmacist there this morning and she said "we don't test any of our products for gluten." I take a generic fiorinal that is manufactured by them. I have been getting a reaction similar to a gluten reaction from other sources - increased heart...

OK, I believe I glutened or caseined myself a week ago. I am still sick! How long can this last???

I also get mouth, or should I say tongue, irritations. I have a geographic tongue and when I get a trace amount of gluten - such as second hand beer from kissing, my tongue gets circles and ridges and it is tender. This is always my first and sometimes only sympton of being glutened.

I am casein intolerant and have gone very light on the casein, but have not given it up completely. Last March I went gluten free and casein light. For the first time since March I ate cottage cheese. Only 1/2 cup. Within minutes my tongue was sore (geographic tongue) and today I have undereye bags, hand is numb, lump in throat, chest/back pressure, rapid...

The Anhieser Bush Redbridge beer is gluten free. It is sorghum based. It actually tastes good. I don't know if bars/rest carry it, but it is at my local ABC package store and it doesn't cost anymore than the other beers.

I fell extremely lucky in finding my current partner (the first since being diagnosed and hopefully the last ). She found out on our first date and has been very thoughtful ever since. When she cooks us dinner she really goes the extra mile looking for foods/recipes that don't have any gluten. And at resteraunts she is more concerned than I am, actually...

I have been "fighting" a vaginal yeast infection for a little while now. Had my 2nd treatment on Monday. Could being glutened cause a vaginal candidiasis? I have been glutened twice accidently in August. And my new partner is a beer drinker. Without brushing teeth between beers and kissing, etc, could this be causing my problems? Any ideas??? I can...

Terrible stomach pains/cramps and incredible nausea were my most distressing physical symptoms. I would also litterally have to eat every 2 hours because of the intense hunger. Yet I lost weight. I had to tell the doc it is the actual stomach, not my intestines. When I would say stomach, the docs would automatically think I was talking about abdomen....

Is this daily? Thank you, it does help.

I used to take B12 1000mcg monthly by injection, but decided to skip it last month in hopes that I didn't need it anymore. Well, I think I do. The exhaustion finally hit me yesterday. I would like to try the pill form before going back to the shots. I've been doing the shots since 2004. Anyway, I remember a thread about B12, and wonder if the folks who...

You certainly won't be alone in asking for the gluten-free foods. My adult dtr and I are going to be at Disney World the week of June 17th! I emailed (the person to e-mail is in earlier posts about DW. I can't remember her e-mail address now.) I was e-mailed back resteraunts and foods available at all the parks and our resort we're staying at. I did...
