ARCHIVED What's The Bread That's Inedible But Makes Good Stuffing?
VitaminDGirl replied to luvs2eat's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
lovin' this thread. Enr-G bread yuck-sharing... but the package looks so neat and like it could be yummy... who really eats and enjoys it? (ok, just read there are a few that like it--good for them and the company Even my baby threw it down and made a bad face. I only use my bread machine now to make breads. Love Anna's breads and Gluten Free... -
yeah, and I'm gussing my dh's tea is probably gluten-free, but I should check to be certain.

Hmmm... I have one and had not considered that the tea I make my husband may cross-contaminate me. The way the machine works, it makes a hole in the k-cup before sending water through it. i guess there is a slight possibility a grain of tea or coffee could be left on the spike? I need to look closer. I do know that some coffee grains escape to the bottom...

ARCHIVED Should you be eliminating wheat from your child's diet? - CBC.ca
VitaminDGirl replied to Scott Adams's topic in Publications & Publicity
Are we as forum members, allowed to respond to these articles here? If not, please delete. I'm new here. I see there is not much conversation here... but I was saddened by the article somewhat making it sound like it could be damaging to take your child off gluten, especially if they haven't tested for celiac... I was actually told by my daughter's pediatric... -

I'm sorry you all that I haven't figured out how to quote several of you at once and reply, so that's why all of these seperate posts. Rowena, thanks for hearing my 'cry'. Glad to know another on this journey.

Thank you, I will look into that. I have not yet gone completely gluten free, so now is the time! I will give it a good try for a few months and see what happens. I'm so thankful for a place like this to encourage me as I embark on this new 'adventure' of sorts Prayerfully my body will respond with happiness!

Skylark to the rescue once again. Thank you!! This is wonderful encouragement to go off of gluten and see what happens. Thank you for sharing what you have read/researched. Helps newbie researchers like me!

yes, he is sending off the biopsies, so I guess that will be the final say? I was too doped up after the procedure to ask all of these questions and my throat hurts too much to talk right now by calling to find out. Thanks for you reply! So very much.

Ok. Here I am again. Suffered through the biopsy yesterday. Dr. said I'm not celiac. So... I went through all of that because I had a high positive on a saliva test for anti-gliadin autoantibodies. I did all the bloodwork--all was negative. But because I read here that there can be 20% chance i still could have it, I did the biopsy. So, now I'm...

Very informative reply, Shauna--thank you! I am storing up your info for later. -
ARCHIVED Ok, Now What?!
VitaminDGirl replied to gifree's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
ps also my thyroid was in the 3. somethings (high for my dr's liking) and that looked a lot better after getting my D up. Just thought I'd add that part in case it is helpful somehow to your case. Not many drs are 'up' on D, so choose wisely. I actually went to an MD that is not my family dr. for D testing and help as well as to get this celiac testing... -
ARCHIVED Ok, Now What?!
VitaminDGirl replied to gifree's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Hi. I have my biopsy tomorrow to confirm (or not) celiac... but wanted to say that getting my D up through a good D3 supplement in 5,000-10,000 ius helped my neuropathy type feelings IMMENSESLY. So it could be a seperate issue, that part. Hope that helps a bit. -
ARCHIVED Igg Ttg Negative (3) But Anemic And Low Vit D?
VitaminDGirl replied to gfForLife's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
In general, most people are walking around with lower D levels than they could/should. Mostly because of sunscreen, staying out of the sun,etc... So it's a good starting place But def. consider your own personal case and your herditary history. I've been ruled out for autoimmune, so I didn't have that factor to think about. God bless you as you...
