I think I missed this thread the first time through. I think my daughter may be dealing with this. I never connected her problem with gluten, although I do believe she needs to be gluten free. Are you going to get tested for this? What are the tests? Feel free to email me: darlindeb25@aol.com Thank you, Deb

I had panic attacks for years before going gluten free. I was diagnosed with panic attacks, anticipatory anxiety, and borderline agoraphobia...I even was in therapy for them. Now when I look back, I was given Xanax for the panic, and of course, Xanax contained gluten,,,feeding the monster, so to speak! I was on Paxil when I went gluten free, and eventually...

Anybody Out There A Morbidly Obese Celiac?
darlindeb25 replied to ts1986's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Sometimes, when you go on a gluten free diet, and you still do not lose, it may mean you have another intolerance. If you are eating a lot of processed gluten free foods, they are much heavier than regular old wheat flour products. Try eating natural foods, nothing processed, stay away from high fructose corn syrup, and sugars. When I was my sickest... -
I have never heard this before. Have you ever been tested for spastic paraplegia? This is a ligament/muscle problem. My grandson is now 10, and was diagnosed at 5 yrs old of this disease. He walked on his tip-toes from the day he started walking. His sister, my granddaughter has the disease too. She never walked on her tip-toes, but she stubs her...

Benefiber
darlindeb25 replied to darlindeb25's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Thank you Kathy. I have no idea why this was sent to me, but I have no intention of using it. Thank you for replying. -
Yesterday, I received a container of Benefiber in the mail. I find it questionable. The only ingredient listed is "wheat dextrin." It states it is sugar free, sodium free, and gluten free. It states there is less than 10ppm of gluten, so it's gluten free. I will not try it. I feel if it has one ingredient, which is a wheat product, then how can...

Coffee

I have been researching coffee, just to see what I can find. http://www.hollandbymail.com/coffee/coffee_bean_to_cup.html A very informative link about how we get coffee, I have never read this before. You learn something everyday! http://www.diagnose-me.com/treat/T112792.html http://www.vanhoutte.com/us_en/about_coffee/nutritional/ Now... -
Coffee
darlindeb25 replied to WhimsiKay's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Well golly Richard, I guess you can't back your opinion. You want all of us to believe you on your say so, but you tell us to back everything we say with links. SPICENATOR3000---I have never liked flavored coffee's so that hasn't been a problem for me. The vanilla bean idea is a good one for those who do like flavored coffee's. There was a time... -
Coffee
darlindeb25 replied to WhimsiKay's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I have read this somewhere before too, right now I can't find a link, but that doesn't mean it isn't true. When we hear something that may be a problem, it's always good to mention it, that way others do know enough to check and make sure what they ARE using doesnt contain gluten. Thank you for the warning Whimsikay!! I was glutened by Hazelnut Coffee... -
Coffee
darlindeb25 replied to WhimsiKay's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
No--sorry, they should have said that all coffee's with any flavorings added MAY CONTAIN GLUTEN!!! You can never be sure with flavorings, unless it's specifically states gluten free. I was glutened by hazelnut coffee years ago. Many of your flavored teas now state they contain gluten!!! Folgers, Maxwell House, 8 O'Clock, are some of the gluten free... -
Confusion About Silent Celiac
darlindeb25 replied to mhb's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
There is so much confusion about silent and latent celiac. A silent celiac is someone who does have damage, but no other symptoms. The villi does show damage, yet the patient doesn't know they are sick, a silent celiac is usually diagnosed by accident. A latent celiac is the one who has no visible damage yet. Here is an article I found from medicinenet... -
Gluten-Free Shampoo/Hair Products
darlindeb25 replied to a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I still swear by my Pantene. I get remarks about how pretty my hair is all the time. How thick and shiny it is, how good it smells! I must be doing something right. I have used Garnier too, but much prefer Pantene. I was told Dove is just as good, but I really do not agree. Aussie products are good too, their 3 Minute Miracle Conditioner is great. -
Do Eye Problems Go Along With Celiac?
darlindeb25 replied to JulesH's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Petemoss, you have to understand, everything can not be blamed on celiac disease. There may be something going on with your eyes that has nothing to do with your celiac disease. Some people have terrible night vision, my night vision is getting worse. I am 52, it happens. Go to an optometrist and get an eye exam. Don't just assume celiac disease is...
