I watched the film Under Our Skin on Netflix. It is about Lyme disease and is disturbing on many levels.

Hi Tex,
I've been doing some reading. Does the graphic below accurately capture what you were trying to explain to me about allergy vs sensitivity?

Do you think the intent is to be able to eat all the gluten you want and not suffer effects? Or is it to protect against accidental exposure?

Thanks for the inputs everyone. I found one tonight called "iPee Address". Very cute name. It shows me restrooms near my current location (it must be using GPS). But I'm planning a trip up to Malibu tomorrow and it won't show me restrooms at my destination. Not sure if I'm not using the ap...

I'm with Deanna, I seem to get colds and flu ect a couple of times a year.

I have LC as opposed to CC. Does that make a difference in the involvement of the immune system? I read here recently that people with CC have more difficulty weaning off of Entocort. What other differences are there?

Is there an app for that?

I just bought a new iPad3. I'm wondering if anyone here has found an app that they recommend for living with food sensitivites? Good restaurant finders / shopping guides? How about a food diary? Have you found such a thing for the iPad?
Thanks!

Are you drinking enough fluids? D can rob you of fluids and throw you into a cycle of C, IMO.

I completely agree with the power of the tribe. When I was in high school I took up the awful habit of smoking because I had a friend who smoked. And then I made more friends who smoked and so on and so on. The most difficult part of quitting was when I realized the only way I could kick the habit w...

Thanks everyone for voting and replying. The results are quite interesting. Udi's is a clear favorite. (Paula - the only Udi's bread I am aware of is the frozen kind.) Garlic bread - what a brilliant idea! Udi's toasts so nicely if must be perfect for garlic bread. I feel a craving coming on. Many m...

Gabes, It's too bad you can't find the rosette fabric locally. I often order fabric online from Fabric Empire (http://www.fabricempire.com/). I did a quick search and they do carry many rosette fabrics but at $12 to $15 a yard it is probably a bit expensive for your project. But, who knows, maybe th...

What brand of GF bread do you prefer?

I thought it might be fun to see what brand of bread is prefered/most tolerated among people with MC. Gluten-free bread of course. If you vote "other" please tell us which brand. I picked brands that I have seen in the stores but I'm sure there are many others. I would suspect there is a l...
