I noticed that squirmingitch hasn't been on lately. I tried to send her a message and it wouldn't allow me to. Anyone know if she's ok? She helped me so much after I was diagnosed and I miss her!

Looks like she posted on Friday.  I wouldn't file a missing person's report yet.?

You can look at someone's profile and see the last post they made.  Its supposed to tell you when they were last logged in, but when I looked, that didn't seem to be working right.

Faryn, how sweet of you to worry about me. Thank you. It's always touching to know people are concerned about other people. Thank you for caring.:wub:

I am good! For the last 6 or 8 months though, it seems like my life is out of control. I have no time and I don't know why. Every day I seem to be running & huffing & puffing just to get a few spare minutes. I know part of it is the Fasano diet I have been on which means I'm cooking more than ever before but that certainly isn't the whole reason. My husband & I are trying to readjust the things we used to do & not expect the same to continue forever. For example; the house used to get vacuumed every other day like clockwork. We've now instituted 2 days per week for the vacuuming. We're aging & just can't keep up the every other day thing so 2 days a week it is. 

For months and months I was having computer problems. Apple was working with me to resolve them. There were many, many, many, many phone calls back & forth and gobs of hours spent to isolate the problems and then to solve them. That took up massive quantities of time! I think we've got it licked now though. Thank you Apple!

I have no idea why you couldn't pm me. I haven't changed any of my settings, at least I don't think so. I'll go double check.

I discovered the problem with messaging me. I had used up all of my space. 100% full. OOPS!:o I cleaned out my messages so now there's room again.

      What should I expect from a UK restaurant advertising / offering "Gluten Free" food

      By trents · Posted

      @cristiana, I'm thinking the intensity of our response to the same amount of gluten can vary from time to time. Our bodies are a dynamic entity.

      Hi @trents Two things can happen:  1/ For a very small gluten hit, I will get a slightly sore stomach for a few days, maybe a day or two following the glutening, and (TMI warning) maybe slightly loose BMs with mucus  for a couple of days.  2/ For a substantial glutening, and thankfully it's only happened once in recent years,  I get bad chills, followed by vomiting, and my heartbeat is all over the place and I can hardly stand.  It's pretty extreme.  That happens within about 2 hours of eating the gluten.  I might feel slightly dizzy for a couple of days after the glutening episode. Interestingly I've just been out to a cafe which hitherto has made a big thing about how their french fries are cooked in a separate fryer.  I shared some with a friend and they were served with chilli sauce, jalapenos, cheddar cheese and fried onions.  Definitely not health food!  Anyway,  I'd eaten half when I realised I'd not checked the menu to ensure that this dish is still gluten-free - and it turns out it isn't!!!  They've changed the ingredients and the fried onions are now cooked with wheat.   I came home expecting to feel dreadful as I had no idea how much gluten I have consumed but so far if anything I feel just little queasy.  I think I'd have thrown up by now had there been a lot of gluten in the onions.

      Persistent isolated high DGP-IGG in child despite gluten-free diet

      By trents · Posted

      It might be wise to start him on small amounts and work up to 10g. Monitor how he reacts. Some people simply cannot complete the gluten challenge because it makes them too ill. By the way, you can buy powdered gluten in health food stores, at least here in the states you can. With a food scale, it would be easy to measure the amount being consumed in a day. I'm not sure what the intensity of reaction to gluten tells you about what's actually going on with regard to celiac disease. I mean there are some celiacs like me who don't seem to react to minor exposure amounts but who get violently ill with larger exposures. Then there are celiacs who get some kind of reaction to even the tiniest amount of exposure but don't necessarily get violently ill. And how the reaction manifests itself is very different for different people. Some, like me, experience emesis and diarrhea. Others just get brain fog. Others get joint pain. It's all over the map.

      That's interesting - that's a lot of gluten! I'll be very curious to see how my son responds to the gluten. In some ways, I guess having a strong reaction would tell us something? It's tough navigating this as a parent and having it be not so clear cut ;\
