    I haven't tried any buns or bread I liked that were gluten free in the stores.....but! I read some reviews advertised on the side of this site somewhere......and thought I'd check out the site and I actually placed an order. They got here yesterday and I had 2 ham sandwiches on the Chullah rolls! WOW! To Die For! (not the same death as with crappy gluten...

    In Grand Rapids, Michigan - a gluten-free store just opened called Saffrons.......since they are Celiac and with food allergies too - they opened a gluten-free store and I've yet to visit. I did hear they sell Udi's! I don't spend the extra money on gluten-free foods because in the grocery store - I buy Classico pasta sauces and soups (Progresso) or make...

    ARCHIVED I'm Hot

    tmbarke replied to miles's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    For me the blood pressure isn't the problem - mine is low to normal I've experienced a bit of overheating a month after gluten free - but then once or twice since then - until I had the pleasure of my first summer gluten-free. I started to threaten broken fingers if my brother touches that A/C! He thinks it should be turned off when he leaves at 2 for...

    ARCHIVED I'm Hot

    tmbarke replied to miles's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    Ice Water - Cool or warm shower - A/C..............NOTHING will cool me down! I read it had something to do with an affected Thyroid that the heat intolerance and regulators act up. Not sure if it was hypo or hyper. I'm miserable and can snap someone's head off with my eyes if I can't cool down. I try to stand in front of the freezer and it isn't...

    Here is a site for all gluten free medications - also a great list to bring to the doctors office if they prescribe you anything. Open Original Shared Link For the record - dayquil and nyquil are safe! Also - a list of Walgreens OTC meds are on this list so don't hesitate to go store brand too. My doc has a copy of this list for me too.....and he...

    Fortunately I've known my coworkers for 10 yrs before diagnosis......and when I told them, they wanted to understand and were even supportive. If the donuts were brought in, they wouldn't say...."You can't have any!".....but then I wouldn't want any either......major bloat for the whole day and pants undone prior to diagnosis is NOT something I'd look forward...

    I can sympathize with your frustrations - I have gone thru pain like that most of my life. Even intimate encounters were painful! No doctor could find anything but a miniscule cyst.......hardly could cause that.....ultrasound showed that. FINALLY.......I got a doctor that scheduled a laproscopy and guess what he found. Adhesions. I had an infection or...

    I THINK BACK TO THE DAYS THAT I'D EAT PIZZA AND AFTER ONE THICK CRUST WITH TONS OF CHEESE SLICE, I'D BE BLOATED AND HURTING AND COULDN'T BREATHE FOR FEAR OF BURSTING MY STOMACH..........AND I'M SURE YOU KNOW THE REST. NOW I DON'T REALLY MISS PIZZA......I MAKE IT NOW WITH A CRUST THAT I CAN DIGEST - THE DEEP DISH WITH EGGS AND CREAM CHEESE AND CHEESES....

    Sounds like someone is out to make a profit off us celiacs....hmmmmmmm I myself rarely use the pastas - instead I grab a potato peeler and take it out on a zucchini - saute with pesto and its awesome.....even use slices in lasagna instead of pasta....mmmmhmmmm!

    I forgot to address your water behind the ear...... My doctor told me to take a decongestant to help that drain....try that first before you see a doctor.

    Hi GFG Welcome When my doctor told me to go on the gluten-free diet and that when I get glutened it attacks my thyroid....I did some heavy research. First it was hot flashes and racing heartbeat that I could here and feel. Out of concern for the heart racing.....I stumbled across a site that helps you determine any food allergies...or reactions. Take...

    Aww doll, I can sympathize with you mucho lotta. Although I am not on any medication, I've experienced your symptoms prior to going gluten free....then afterward, I'd get the hot flashes and I've also gained the weight. Sitting mostly on the job and here on this darn puter. My back spasms if I do any lifting or stooping so that in itself is depressing...

    This is a low carb pizza recipe! no flour! I use classico spaghetti sauce or alfredo sauce in place of the pizza sauce (Dia Frettelli?) is way too salty! Open Original Shared Link I don't miss Pizza no more! Hugs to all Tena

    Is it possible that you may have changed your laundry soap? or anything that touches your body? I'm allergic to Mr. Bubble and Tide. It was terrible when I was dating someone that used Tide and I started getting welted hives all over my body! thankfully he went to Tide Free and Era I also got a skin hive reaction in my teens from a medication.......I...

    I actually found my personality change as well.........but mine (prior) was depression and hopelessness with the attempt to have some fun. Now I am calm and have clarity.....with a bit of sassiness! But also find I can be less tolerant of ignorance too. I have goals and maintain certain projects around the house that give me that sense of accomplishment...

    Sand, I can relate very well with you. Good thing I'm a veggie lover! I have been cooking the Specific Carb Diet lately and have had some very good results. The first link explains what and why for the diet The second link has some recipes I've tried.....but HIGHLY recommend the Lasagna made with sliced zucchini in place of pasta (I used Classico spaghetti...

    Bigelow herbal tea seems to sooth my wretching stomach pain (right now it's constant comment but will try the mint). And definitely bland stuff. I like mashed potatoes with peas and butter. (even if instant potatoes to make at work) OH! And aleeve for the pin pricks I feel in the muscles and joints.
