People are seeing your posts. Please stop re-posting your information. You are going against board rules/guidelines by posting the same things all these times. You can find your multiple posts all under one category now. Having multiple posts bogs down the board and makes it less effective. Please take the time to make yourself familiar with the rules and guidelines of this board and community. Thanks!

I see that now but I don't think that this format is very newbie-friendly - I was not multiple posting to be rude or to get attention to my posts, I just couldn't understand where the posts were going - I read the rules of the board before I ever made any posts and my cookies/firewall wasn't an issue so I was confused...

I could see my posts when they were replies to threads that other people had started but could not see any of the posts that I had started myself.

I cannot speak for everyone here, but I can say that I certainly never meant to spam the boards - I was just questioning if my threads were being posted.

Believe me, it will never happen again.

It is a bit confusing I agree, anyway, welcome to the board and please don't think we don't want you here! :D

Did you have any questions or anything?

First of all, Welcome to the board.

The reason I pointed these things out to you is.....I spent a good 30 min. cleaning up the message trail that you left. I am not paid for this job, it is a volunteer position that I enjoy doing. It helps the celiac community.

I just want you to know how to use the board and what the rules are. If we do not let you know, then how will you learn to get around on here? Please do not be offended by my statement. I just wanted you to know your posts were going through, and that you need to be careful when posting. End of story.

Thank you for the warm welcome, Lisa! :D

As for having questions...I have a lot of disease-related ones - I posted a question about B12 deficiency over on the pre-diagnosis board - I do have a lot of questions but I am waiting to post these until late next week (after my biopsies come back and I get some answers).

As for technical board questions - I'll get back to you on that one as soon as I learn more about how things work here ;)

      Yes, except for the most sensitive, cross contamination from airborne gluten should be minimal. Highly sensitive people may have nutritional deficiencies. Many times their bodies are in a highly inflamed state from Celiac, with high levels of histamine and homocysteine. Vitamins are needed to break down histamine released from immune cells like mast...

      Should not be a problem except for the most sensitive celiacs. The amount of gluten that would get in the air from cooking alone has got to be miniscule. I would be more concerned about cross contamination happening in other ways in a living environment where others are preparing and consuming gluten-containing foods. Thinks like shared cooking surfaces and...

      Hello, @NCalvo822, Blood tests for Celiac Disease test for antibodies our bodies make in response to gluten exposure. These Tg IgA 2 antibodies mistakenly attack our own bodies, causing problems in organs and tissues other than just the digestive tract. Joints can ache, thyroid problems or the pancreas can develop. Ataxia is just one of over two hundred...

      symptoms.

      @Rebeccaj, When you smell toast or pasta cooking, that means that particles of that food are floating around in the air. Airborne gluten can then be inhaled and swallowed, meaning the food particles get into your digestive tract. If you're careful to avoid gluten and are still having symptoms, those symptoms could be caused by vitamin deficiencies...

      Yes, except for the most sensitive, cross contamination from airborne gluten should be minimal. Highly sensitive people may have nutritional deficiencies.  Many times their bodies are in a highly inflamed state from Celiac, with high levels of histamine and homocysteine.  Vitamins are needed to break down histamine released from immune cells like mast cells that get over stimulated and produce histamine at the least provocation as part of the immune response to gluten. This can last even after gluten exposure is ended.  Thiamine supplementation helps calm the mast cells.  Vitamin D helps calm the immune system.  Other B vitamins and minerals are needed to correct the nutritional deficiencies that developed while the villi were damaged and not able to absorb nutrients.  The villi need vitamins and minerals to repair themselves and grow new villi. Focus on eating a nutritional dense, low inflammation diet, like the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, and supplementing to correct dietary deficiencies.  Once your body has the vitamins and minerals needed, the body can begin healing itself.  You can have nutritional deficiencies even if blood tests say you have "normal" blood levels of vitamins.  Blood is a transport system carrying vitamins from the digestive system to organs and tissues.  Vitamins are used inside cells where they cannot be measured.   Please discuss with your doctor and dietician supplementing vitamins and minerals while trying to heal.

I would be more concerned about cross contamination happening in other ways in a living environment where others are preparing and consuming gluten-containing foods. Thinks like shared cooking surfaces and countertops. And what about that toaster you mentioned?

Some people with Celiac Disease also make tTg IgA 6 antibodies in response to gluten exposure.  The tTg IgA 6 antibodies attack the brain, causing ataxia.  These tTg IgA 6 antibodies are also found in people with Parkinson's disease, though they may not have Celiac Disease.  First degree relatives (parents, siblings, children) of those diagnosed with Celiac should be tested as well.  Celiac is genetic.  Your mom and sister should be tested for Celiac, too!   Definitely a good idea to keep to a gluten free diet.
