minor bit of whining

Does anyone find it frustrating when co-workers bring in goodies you are not able to have?  Drives me nuts.  The staff had a pizza party for lunch break today, donuts included.  Knowing the consequences of ingesting gluten seriously outweighs the temptation to snitch even a corner off a donut.  GGGRRRRR!!!!

Ok. I am done whining.  Back to real life. :) Have a great day y'all!

A good excuse to get your favorite treat on the way home. Glad you resisted the temptation.

I found out that the fast food place on the way home has a separate vat of oil for their French fries.  It is not used for anything but the French fries.  Might stop there on the way home. :)

I enjoy participating on treat days by making some gluten free goodies to share.  It is especially gratifying to see wheat eaters enjoying a slice of gluten free banana bread, for example, and taking second helpings. :)  And like you, I just remember that eating anything with wheat in it is equal to splashing battery acid on my skin.  It's just not worth it!

It was never tempting for me.  It bothered the people sitting near me while I ate my own food more than it did me!  Get a gluten-free candy bar from the vending machine... that takes the edge off!

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      New labs are now very elevated

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?

      Chances of being coeliac

      @JettaGirl, "Coeliac" is the British spelling of "celiac". Same disease.

      This may sound ridiculous but is this supposed to say Celiacs? I looked up Coeliacs because you never know, there’s a lot of diseases related to a disease that they come up with similar names for. It’s probably meant to say Celiacs but I just wanted to confirm.
