  1. YOU'RE why the Dodos went extinct! I knew it!!!!
  2. Hamburger steak (grassfed local beef), a handful of sugar snap peas, and fresh, cold, straight from the cow milk. *drool* (we need a emoticon for drool!)
  3. Well since OCD is considered part of the anxiety spectrum disorders, it would make sense that it would/could be intensified or even produced by exposure to gluten. I have some OCD issues, and they have been steadily improving over the last two years. However my panic attacks and anxiety issues are triggered by soy as much (or even more than) gluten. I have...
  4. Hi Skylark. I came up positive from Enterolab on the TTG. My wife came up negative on gliadin and TtG but positive on casein, which also showed up on another IgG/IgE food sensitivey panel from another source.
  5. I had multiple inexplicable intestinal pains for years. The right side one was a sharp, stabbing pain that would come out of nowhere and double me over. The left one would be a duller pain that would wax and wane. Not long before my diagnosis both pains were pretty much present all the time. I was diagnosed with IBS prior, then also diverticulosus, and a...
  6. I trust no fryers after a couple incidents involving a 'dedicated' fryer. In fact now unless I know it is a place that is specifically celiac or gluten-free aware and trained I don't generally eat out. Which is frustrating.
  7. My RLS improved, but didn't go completely away until I cut out all refined grains, starches, and sugars.
  8. Hi Leah, I have suffered as much (if not more) mental, CNS, and neurological symptoms as GI. Panic attacks, anxiety, insomnia, fatigue, muscle twitching (Fasciculations), myoclonus (large muscle spasms), peripheral neuropathy (tingling and numbness in the extremities). My panic attacks, anxiety, and insomnia began to improve almost immediately (within...
  9. Yes, I have had similar issues. I have been gluten-free/CF/SF since April of this year (2009) and found some of this same thing happening to me. It has been somewhat scary. I think that some of it is related to the neurological component of celiac disease is being found to be far more common than thought, but I also think some of it is nutritional issues...
  10. Start taking a look at the amount of soy in everything. It is in chocolate, many brands of nut milks, soups, broths, tea, syrups, etc, etc, etc,. It is in almost as many things as gluten. The one positive thing is that since it is one of the top 8 allergens, the FDA requires it to be clearly labelled. Though I have found a couple instances where I have had...
  11. Does he have a soy intolerance or allergy? A lot of tea's have soy lecithin added as a dispersing agent.
  12. Hi Sleepie, I developed severe muscle twitching and myoclonus, and it is indeed related to gluten for me as well as soy. I have been strictly gluten-free since April 2009, and soy and casein free since May 2009. I have a number of neuromuscular and CNS issues triggered by both gluten and soy. The peripheral neuropathy is not strictly related to a vitamin...
  13. The more research I do the more concerned I get because it seems that a lot of us with celiac disease are miss the whole gut health and nutritional deficiency issue during the first few months/years. I have found that due to gut damage and BACTERIAL IMBALANCE due to both celiac disease and various rounds of anti-biotics over the years, my intestinal bacterial...
