  1. Magnesium powder? I'll keep that in mind, but when I do go, I mine are already pretty loose looking. If by loose you mean, like a cow patty. I am vegan, but cannot afford a whole foods diet. I only get about 190 a month to work with and I really do not have any transportation to get fresh vegetables and fruit every week. I need to buy things that last...
  2. I was diagnosed with Celiac in July of 2016. I had an endoscopy in April of this year, the damage seemed to be very minimal (On a scale from 0 to 5, five being the worst and 0 being healthy, I was a 1.) and the doctor told me I'm healing.... If I'm still healing...why do I still hurt SO BAD? It doesn't matter what I eat, rice, rice pasta, fruits, vegetables...
  3. Good news guys! My inflammation is down! It was 40 before, but my most recent blood test showed that it's a 11! It's now considered moderate instead of severe! I also do not have anemia <3
  4. We don't have food stamps, i'm in Canada.
  5. I've had mental problems since before I was ever diagnosed with celiac. I really doubt things will clear up in the mental department for me. I had struggled for so many years and struggled hard before I was ever diagnosed with celiac. I can relate to you Ennis_TX, the world is not kind to people like us, who really do not want to be around other people...
  6. As I explained in a post before hand, getting a job is not just "going out and getting a job" for me, i have not been able to hold a job for the life of me due to my mental disabilities.
  7. I really don't clean my rice and have NO CLUE what to look for.... Gluten residue? What does that even look like? You forget, I don't have the transportation to go to the store every week. I couldn't even live off of 47 a week if i tried. All I know is, I've tried it before, and I ran out. The money for the bus destroyed my budget, among other things...
  8. I do not live in India and I am not ethnic, and I don't live in the UK, I'm Canadian and live in Canada. I was only given that stomach pill AFTER I explained to the doctor that nothing was moving. Nothing was digesting so he gave it to me to help me digest food, that's not why stuff is going to a halt... It was coming to a halt BEFORE i took those pills...
  9. .......you have to wash rice....? Yeah see I didn't even know that..... I just dumped my rice in the rice cooker and away we go. I used Kohinoor brand rice for the longest time, but I need to switch brands because they were rude to me, SUPER rude, when I called to ask if it was gluten free. I couldn't afford $47 a week, i'd run out. I'd have...
  10. I only have 190 to live off of a MONTH, and no more money after that. My budget never gets bigger as i do not work. I have tried a whole foods diet before and have ran out of food half way through the month. I'd rather not give away exactly where I live, but I will say I'm in New Brunswick. Vegetables are extremely expensive and I do not have the transportation...
  11. I do not have a job, so I only have 190 to spend for an entire month. I'm aware of what a whole foods diet is, but I simply cannot afford it with the budget I have. I also would like to point out that I do not eat any animal products. Please do not tell me to eat animals and animal products or I will leave this website. I came here for advice, not to...
  12. Well, I actually had no idea that celiac contamination ran that deep, the doctor told me if i changed my diet i'd be fine, he gave me no other information so I just assumed all I had to do was change my diet. I had no idea about washing dishes in the same water and same cloth that was used on gluten dishes, or counters or any of that sort. There was a ton...
  13. Well, I can tell you I'm pretty terrified, and the list of things celiacs may have intolerance too is huge. A year or more? Wouldn't my antibodies have gone down a little bit though? And not skyrocketed? I know one thing I need to work on is cross contamination. I live with gluten eating family members and my grandmother is really not being co-operative...
  14. Back in July of last year, i was diagnosed with Celiac disease. I got a recently blood test, when I was first diagnosed, my numbers were 240. They're now way over 300+. I made many phone calls and e-mails, aside from the rice and a few other things, every company gave me a clear answer. All my food is gluten free...what am i doing wrong? My doctor said...
