I was thinking that we could create a group in myspace about celiac disease. It would be known better and we could meet other celiacs on myspace ;) (I just recently got a myspace) Open Original Shared Link Advertisement/kk_is_dragonqueen

I was actually surprised to find about four or five celiac and gluten free groups already on myspace. Just go to the groups homepage and run searches for the words "celiac" and "gluten"

Click on that link. This is my favorite celiac group on myspace.

DragonQueen Explorer

wow :o last time I searched there was nothing. I think we should just make our own group, since we kinda all know eachother and then other people can join our group!

Ya, its really easy to get an account. B)

I made a group for us

<a href="Open Original Shared Link Advertisement/glutenfreeforlife" target="external ugc nofollow">Open Original Shared Link Advertisement/glutenfreeforlife</a>

use my space instead of "lame advertisment"

Why does Scott have that control on there???

Scott,

In the decription portion of the group, I mentioned the group met at www.glutenfreeforum.com

If this bothers you, I can remove it.

"Open Original Shared Link space/glutenfreeforlife

If you put in this address (without the space in myspace) it should take you right to it.

For whatever reason, this did not work. Anyone else have trouble with it? Claire

VegasCeliacBuckeye Collaborator

Open Original Shared Link space.com/glutenfreeforlife <--CUT AND PASTE THIS

---- put the space back between my and space after you paste this ----

Then join the group -- I think we have 4 members so far -- where is KaitiUSA, Jenvan, celiac3270, Lisa baker, Richard, etc etc and everyone else?

My space is free folks and really easy....

jerseyangel Proficient

Ya, something is wrong with that link. :huh: ZI can't find the group, even when I search myspace, it isn't there. I want to join.

Oh, I got it! :rolleyes: Thanks Broncobux :)

Claire Collaborator

I am an experienced computer user but I am lost on this one. The link provided was declined and searches turn up nothing. Help. Claire

VegasCeliacBuckeye Collaborator

Claire,

Don't click on the link above in my previous e-mail

Due to the space between "my" and "space" the link won't let you get all of it.

Rather copy the whole thing (highlight it all and hit "Ctrl and C" at the same time (this will copy it)

OR you can highlight the entire thing and copy it with your mouse (right click then click on copy after it is highlightd)

Then

Paste it to the url area on the top of your screen (where the name of the websitesgo)

You can paste in two ways -- either click on the area you want to paste and then right click your mouse and then left click on paste OR click on the area you want to paste and hit "Ctrl - V" at the same time.

Then put the cursor right before "space.com/" and hit the "backspace" button

then click on "go"

does this help?

:)

Woo hoo! I'm in! Patti-what’s your my space address?

      @catnapt,  Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract.  They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows.   Even beans have lectins.  You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract.   You may want to allow your digestive tract to rest for a week, then start on gluten in "normal" food, not in concentrated vital wheat gluten. This explains it well: Lectins, agglutinins, and their roles in autoimmune reactivities https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25599185/

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg).   Both are gluten free and free of other allergens.  I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25".  It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA.  It's a powder form of Vitamin A.  I was having trouble digesting fats at one point, but found I tolerated the powder form much better and have stuck with it since.   Tryptophan and Vitamin A help heal the intestines as well as improves skin health.  I get Dermatitis Herpetiformis and eczema flairs when my stomach is upset.  So I'm healing the outside as well as the inside.   I take one 1000 mg Tryptophan before bedtime.   With the Thiamine HCl, take 100 mg to start.  If you don't notice anything, three hours later take another. You can keep increasing your dose in this manner until you do notice improvement.  Remember not to take it in the evening so it won't keep you too energized to sleep. When I first started Thiamine HCl, taking 500 mg to 1000 mg to start was recommended.  If you've been thiamine insufficient for a while, you do notice a big difference.  It's like the start of a NASCAR race: Zoom, Zoom, turn it up!   This scared or made some people uncomfortable, but it's just your body beginning to function properly, like putting new spark plugs in your engine.  I took 1000 mg all at once without food.  It kicked in beautifully, but I got a tummy ache, so take with food.  I added in Thiamine TTFD and Benfotiamine weeks later and felt like I was Formula One racing.  So cool.  You may feel worse for a couple days as your body adjusts to having sufficient thiamine.  Feels sort of like you haven't cranked your engine for a while and it backfires and sputters, but it will settle down and start purring soon enough.  Adjust your dose to what feels right for you, increasing your dose as long as you feel improvement.  You can reach a plateau, so stay there for several days, then try bumping it up again.  If no more improvements happen, you can stay at the plateau amount and experiment with increasing your Thiamine TTFD.  It's like being your own lab rat.  LoL Yes, take one Benfotiamine at breakfast and one at lunch.  Take the B Complex at breakfast. Take the TTFD at breakfast and lunch as well.  I like to take the vitamins at the beginning of meals and the NeuroMag at the end of meals.   You may want to add in some zinc.  I take Thorne Zinc 30 mg at breakfast at the beginning of the meal.   Are you getting sufficient Omega Threes?  Our brains are made up mostly of fat.  Flaxseed oil supplements, sunflower seed oil supplements (or eat the seeds themselves) can improve that.  Cooking with extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil is also helpful.   @Wheatwacked likes phosphotidyl choline supplements for his Omega Threes.  He's also had dramatic health improvement by supplementing thiamine.  You're doing great!  Thank you for sharing your journey with us.  This path will smooth out.  Keep going!

      good luck! vital wheat gluten made me violently ill. I will touch the stuff ever again.  
    • catnapt
      I wouldn't consider this lucky. I can NOT tolerate the symptoms. And I googled it and I was not even getting 10 grams of gluten per day and I was extremely ill. They'd have to put me in the hospital. I'm not kidding.   I will have my first appt with a GI dr on March 4th   I will not eat gluten again - at least not on purpose   they are going to have to come up with a test that doesn't require it.

      What Thiamine Hydrochloride brand do you take? Is it like the other vitamins I have added? What brand Tryptophan and amount do you take. Thanks
