I have just read your posting and thought I should add a few things. It really isn't easy dealing with negative skin biopsies, especially if heavy itching is still involved. I've been having some skin problems of my own recently, so I know all too well how that frustration must feel. It is really hard to find what's going to give me relief among all those...

I usually opt for some water and a gluten-free energy bar. Surprisingly, it's easier to find them than with normal food.

Gluten-free bread
CatherineWang replied to Kate1990's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
It's challenging to find a truly gluten-free bread. I've also tried many of them, but nothing has worked. But I'm trying to experiment in my kitchen and make something similar to bread. -
If you're worried about whether Metro's pepperoni is okay to eat with celiac disease, I think the best thing to do is just give Metro a call or ask someone at the store. The thing is, even if you look at the label, it might not tell you everything you need to know, like if there's a chance it got mixed up with something with gluten in it.

Dealing with constant nausea and just feeling awful.
CatherineWang replied to B1rdL0ver's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I'm pretty sure that in stores, you can find plenty of gluten-free options. But they are usually a bit more expensive. -
Dealing with constant nausea and just feeling awful.
CatherineWang replied to B1rdL0ver's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I'd recommend that you cook chicken broth at home. I used to buy pre-made chicken noodle soup, and for me, it made things even worse. Until I began to cook it at home. It takes time, but it helps me instantly. Recently, I saw a lifehack of how to make homemade chicken broth cubicles and keep them in the freezer. I haven't tried it yet, but when I'll do it... -
The answer looks like it was written by a lawyer or PR. Well, they just defend themselves in case you feel unwell after using their lotion. They have warned you, and you can't sue them. But I've checked online, and those products (Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil and Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter) seem gluten-free. Have you tried doing your own...

Dealing with constant nausea and just feeling awful.
CatherineWang replied to B1rdL0ver's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I think you got me wrong. Well, it's my fault. By changing your diet, I meant adding chicken broth and yogurt to your meals. However, regarding the yogurt, make sure that it's natural and not a dessert based on yogurt. On a natural yogurt package, it is usually written how many life bacteria are added there. -

Sometimes, antibiotics have this effect, and even flora capsules that should be prescribed by your GP might be ineffective. In this case, I can recommend only changing your diet. If you eat dairy products, then natural yogurt can help. If you aren't vegan, chicken broth can also be helpful. -
While it's theoretically possible for airborne gluten particles from dog food to cause a reaction, the risk is generally considered to be low. The particles would need to be ingested to trigger a reaction, and the amount present in the air from scooping dog food is likely minimal. Additionally, if you've been in close proximity to the dog food without experiencing...

Cycle of dermatitis herpetiformis
CatherineWang replied to Itchyperson's topic in Dermatitis Herpetiformis
The fact that your symptoms are closely associated with your menstrual cycle could also be significant. Hormonal fluctuations can sometimes exacerbate autoimmune conditions like celiac disease and dermatitis herpetiformis. Given your history of gastrointestinal symptoms, recurrent miscarriages, and negative celiac tests, it's possible that you may have a... -

Elimination Diet
CatherineWang replied to Hiawatha's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Since you're already gluten and dairy-free, you may want to focus on eliminating other common allergens or trigger foods, such as soy, eggs, nuts, or certain grains. Your healthcare provider can help you determine which foods to eliminate based on your symptoms and potential sensitivities. Keep a detailed journal of your symptoms, including any changes you... -
I understand why such misunderstatement may happen since the journalists can't know about everything, but in such cases just don't speak about what you don't know

Genetic Testing
CatherineWang replied to Ngueyn1980's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
The presence of HLA-DQ2 is a significant risk factor for celiac disease, while HLA-DQ8 may also play a role, albeit to a lesser extent. The specific alleles detected can further refine the assessment of celiac disease risk, as certain combinations of alleles are more strongly associated with the condition. However, it's important to remember that genetic... -

Body and exercise not how they used to be.
CatherineWang replied to dhooden's topic in Sports and Fitness
Of course because of the new diet you will feel different and maybe weak, because it's an important part of any exercise routine, but you are just overthinking. Your exams show that your body and health is ok, so just start to believe in yourself again and rely on your body. -
Next trip to New York
CatherineWang replied to SpanishCeliac's topic in Traveling with Celiac Disease
I would also recommend to pay attention to local small restaurants. When I am visiting NY I like to go to china town and eat in small home restaurants where people cook simple but very tasty food, also it's much cheaper than to eat in a hyped place. -
If you have celiac disease and are experiencing challenges with muscle growth, weight gain, or susceptibility to injury, it's essential to work closely with a healthcare provider and a registered dietitian who specializes in celiac disease and sports nutrition. They can help you develop a personalized nutrition plan to address nutrient deficiencies, optimize...

My head
CatherineWang replied to James47's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Hi. First off, big hugs to you on your journey. I went through something similar a while back. When I started my gluten-free diet, I felt like I was finally on the right path, but then those pesky symptoms started creeping back in. Turns out, it's not uncommon to hit bumps along the road to recovery. Our bodies are still adjusting, and it takes time. I found... -
Fuelling exercise -corn and other gluten free grains
CatherineWang replied to Gilly M's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
I can relate to your story sm. Like you, I've had my fair share of ups and downs trying to figure out what works best for my body. When I started cutting out gluten, I found that adding quinoa and corn into my diet helped maintain my energy levels during workouts. They're great sources of carbs and nutrients. As for dairy, it was a bit trickier for me, but... -
