  1. Fbmb, Wow, your family as a lot going on in the GI department. I have read in other places about friend's not taking people seriously, but people laugh at what they don't understand because it makes them uncomfortable. I have found that a fun way to bring friends into the fold is to get together and cook with them. That way I can educate them...
  2. Hi Hannah, Yes, I had 44 years of eating good bread before my body took a shift. I was hiking and had an encounter with a mountain lion that shook me up (my nutritionist confirmed this is possible). I started feeling lethargic and sick for no reason.

  3. Thank you Cindy, I agree with your approach. For myself, I do not want to have an undue focus placed on me, or even worse, be "that guy". Thank you for your reply.
  4. Hello Hannah, I could not imagine what your husband went through during that time period.

I believe this comes from the fact that...
  6. I have had Celiac disease for five years, and have been on the same learning curve that many people on this forum have been on. It is a challenge to start, but once you find your way to navigating how to manage it, it just becomes a part of your lifestyle. One aspect that I have not been able to figure out, and the reason I put this forum under "Coping...
  7. Easy there. Everyone should be doing whatever they need to in order to take care of themselves. If gluten free shampoo causes you to live an anxiety free life, then by all means - do it. However, there are a lot of people working with some half-baked information when it comes to celiac disease, or if someone has celiac disease, or what someone with celiac...
  8. Hi guys, I have been asymptomatic celiac disease for five years. Unless you are eating your shampoo, you should be fine. Remember, celiac disease is an auto-immune disease that takes place in the small intestine. Your shampoo should be just fine.
