So aside from the title, I’ve still been experiencing diarrhea, and severe abdominal pain. The gi said she thinks I have ibs d. I’m worried it might be refractory celiacs. I’ve gone 100% gluten-free for these 7 months as I feel like s$#& and want to be well. I’ve changed my kitchen tools, pots, pans etc. I have also changed all my beauty products to glut...

Celiac Disease in the Military—Don't Ask Don't Tell?
Cheerymarie commented on Jefferson Adams's article in Additional Concerns
The military rejects ANYONE with celiacs regardless of whether you have a “grunt” classified job. As someone who is currently active duty and recently diagnosed I can assure you the military is NOT a safe or healthy environment for celiacs. Most military assignments ( to be considered fit to be in the navy you are supposed to be fit for sea duty) will req... -
So I just wanted to put this information out here for anyone diagnosed while in the military. (Specifically the navy) You wont automatically get kicked out. I assumed this to be true because it’s all there was for me to read online... a bunch of people saying they were getting kicked out. (Which makes sense since you aren’t allowed to join if you are...

Anyone found a GOOD gluten-free pizza ?
Cheerymarie replied to Cheerymarie's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I love this community you guys are awesome thank you so much!! -
So pizza was a huge staple in my life (healthy I know) and I’ve tried about 4 different gluten-free pizzas (UDI’S being one of them) and I honestly HATE IT. It’s like a thin crust pizza that’s over cooked on the bottom and gummy and chewy/undercooked on the top. But that’s just how it tastes ! It seems to me all gluten-free pizza is like this and I should ...

Snap also I forgot to mention. Ignorance can be bliss until you get cancer! Undiagnosed celiacs can cause lots of types of cancer. I personally had a pre cancerous polyp removed (I’m 25!!!) I wouldn’t have had a colon screening until 50! Very thankful for celiacs versus death by horrible cancer.

Diagnosed in late September myself, I feel you! I totally understand what you are going through you are NOT whiny, it does suck. As time passes you figure out little things that make it way easier overall. The first few months I’ve been really depressed and the holidays were SO hard this year since it was all still brand new. I bought a NIMA (gluten sensor) ...

What I wish I heard when I was you : It seems surreal now, you’re imagining how shitty it might be and yes it can be shitty. The first month was probably the hardest of my life but it does get better, you do realize how much there truly is for you. You just have to figure out where to go. Some grocery stores suck for gluten-free stuff just the traditional o...

Dean's Sour Cream
Cheerymarie replied to AmandaD's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Googled this hoping to find the answer a few days ago. I purchased a Nima Sensor. I tried deans today and it told me it was gluten free. HOWEVER, it could just be this jar I’m not saying hands down other tubs of it couldn’t be contaminated. However I thought it would be nice to share! -
backstory: I was diagnosed via biopsy and blood test 9/25 is when I was told by the GI doctor (civilian). I went to navy medical for sea duty screening and was told “bring your own food on deployments” which honestly isn’t possible for a 9 month carrier deployment nor do I WANT to live off gluten free snacks, while working such long hours. ( I feel like ...

He left a voicemail (which I was really thankful for bc it is SO hard to get ahold of someone) and said the celiac panel came back positive and told me to start a gluten free diet and asked me to call him. He said he was going to set me up with a nutritionist. I will definitely check out the newbie page. I am in the navy and I'm pretty sure I get kicked out...

I've been having diarrhea for the last year which I attributed to stress. In the last three months I've been having INTENSE abdominal pain(all over not from gas bc I took anti gas medicine) gas, and bloating. The doctor ordered an upper and lower endoscopy. He found a precancerous polyp (not the cause of symptoms) removed it, performed biopsy on the irritated...
