Ok I went to a Chinese Restaurant today. I was scared so I called 1st. I asked what I could have that doesn't have Gluten. The cook really didn't know what Gluten was. So I explained it to her. I ended out getting the Harr Kow, The Chinese veggies with rice and Gravy. When She brought it in she asked if Corn starch was ok :) I said absolutely!! So I I ate it. It was wonderful!! I just started thinking tho, I hope the Chicken stock was home made, and not bought. Because some has Gluten in it. But so far no problems :) It has been 4 1/2 hrs!! Yay!!

i've tried chinese restaurants too, when i ask about gluten they never seem to know what it is, so i usually get whatever curry dish they have available, to be safe.

I did fine!! It helps we used to go there all the time when the kids were young, so they know us. I have never had a problem there in the past. Even when I was having my blood test and was kinda "gluten free" I went there and had no problem, but I don't want to ruin a good thing because I have been doing so well :)

      A question - eggs & dairy

      By trents · Posted

      Lactase is the enzyme that breaks down lactose. Lactase is produced in the small intestine. It is not produced in the pancreas. https://cymbiotika.com/blogs/health-hub/understanding-what-organ-produces-most-digestive-enzymes   "Lactase is found in the brush border of the small intestine of humans and other mammals." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lactase Studies have shown through micro analysis that the small bowel lining from those with celiac disease may never completely heal, even after years of gluten free living. There is healing at the macro level but not all cellular functions may be restored.

      Diagnosed gluten allergy but not Celiac

      By Waterdance · Posted

      Thank you so much for this thorough and informative post. This information does help me to understand my body better. I will commit to a strict gluten free diet. I may not have a diagnosis but I know gluten is causing issues. The worst offender, white bread, causes a reaction within 20-30 minutes. Which I hate because I like sandwiches. Lol. Common sense dictates that it's time to stick to a strict gluten free diet. Thanks for the tips about alternatives. I do cook and bake so it's helpful to know what may work. I appreciate so much all the time and effort you all have put into helping me understand and being supportive. Thank you.

      I went back to consuming dairy after a year of healed villi.  What I didn't know is that along with developing celiac, my pancreas was no longer producing enough enzyme to consume lactose.  My GI said he often sees this with celiac patients.  Some people can go back to dairy with no problems at all and others will develop odd symptoms like ataxia--balance issues, etc.-- for no apparent reason.  It took me a year of suffering to get it all straightened out.  Hope this saves you some time!

      Blood results

      By Russ H · Posted

      Do you know what the lab's standard range is for the IgA tTG2 result? The Endomysial IgA basically tests for the same antibodies as IgA tTG2 but it uses an older, less sensitive method and the result is positive/negative rather than quantitative. Hence, it is possible to show raised IgA tTG2 antibodies without getting a positive test for Endomysial IgA antibodies.

      She’s eating mostly gluten as far as I know. Think her GP is trying to get her seen fairly quickly
