Hold onto your hats! Here goes . . . .

I love that I have met some of the greatest people I know on this forum, and that they have become my friends.

I love that those friends are so supportive, so kind, so thoughtful, and that when they say they know what I'm going through, they REALLY know what I'm going through

I love my husband -- he is the most amazing man. He is the greatest.

I love my kids -- and my future son-in-law. They are loving, supportive (especially my son) and just as goofy as me.

I love my Mom & Dad -- they're just the greatest. I love it that they care enough about me to cry when they see me walk like I do.

I love my sister -- she knows me like no one else does. She also knows how to manipulate my kids better than anybody and she gets them to do the things I can't!!!!!!! :lol:

I love my brother-in-law -- when he, my husband, my son, my dad and now my future son-in-law get together, I laugh until my stomach hurts.

I love my nephews -- they are cute and funny and silly and SOOOOO loving.

I love the way my oldest nephew (age 10) gives hugs -- he gives full-out hugs that let you know he really loves you.

I love my grandmother -- she's 100 years old, and she still goes to the Bingo 3 nights a week, and goes to the gambling boat once a week and stays out until 4 or 5 in the morning!

I love my little Destiny -- she is the greatest little laid-back poodle!

I love our bigger dog Lucky -- he is REALLY protective of me.

I love my flower gardens. They are beautiful and have already started attracting the most beautiful butterflies.

I love that I have so much support navigating my new life.

I love that I can write about things that I love now. Thank you all.

Love, Lynne

I love to sometimes just completely veg out, curl up in a big blanket, and watch movies

I love my soul mate

I love it when I can wake up in the morning and know that I have another day with my wife and children. Another day to go to work, to breath in the Spring air, another day to .... live!!!

I truly thought I was going to die last year. Many of my colleagues, friends and family felt this way as well. Heck, I was actually starting to prepare for it to happen...but that's another story for another thread.

I stumbled upon the gluten free diet...in fact my wife suggested it, completely out of nowhere, and it worked! So, I also love the gluten free diet!!!!!!!!!1

I love that I'm now healthy enough to go out golfing with my hubby and this beautiful spring day.

I love it when we both have a good game, but can laugh at ourselves when we don't.

I love it when someone else loves to cook, and I don't have too :lol: Any of you cooks want to move close to me????

I love that all the spring birds are back and singing their beautiful songs.

I love when Sheba chases a jay and it sits on the post and scolds her.

I love that we made supper early this morning and put it in the crock pot before we went golfing :P

Yup......... I think that I really love life too! :rolleyes:

      Has anyone had terrible TMJ/ Jaw Pain from undiagnosed Celiac?

      Segments of the protein Casein are the same as segments of the protein strands of gluten, the 33-mer segment. The cow's body builds that Casein protein. It doesn't come from wheat. Casein can trigger the same reaction as being exposed to gluten in some people. This is not a dairy allergy (IGE mediated response). It is not lactose intolerance...

      Wheatwacked, what exactly did you intend when you stated that wheat is incorporated into the milk of cows fed wheat? Obviously, the gluten would be broken down by digestion and is too large a molecule anyway to cross the intestinal membrane and get into the bloodstream of the cow.

      Wheat in cow feed would not equal gluten in the milk, @Wheatwacked, please back up extraordinary claims like this with some scientific backing, as I've never heard that cow's milk could contain gluten due to what the cow eats.

      My only proof

      Hello, @NanceK, I'm glad you're willing to give Benfotiamine with B Complex another go! I'm certain you'll feel much better. Yes, supplementation is a good idea even if you're healing and gluten free. The gluten free diet can be low in B vitamins and other nutrients. A nutritionist can help guide you to a nutrient dense diet, but food sensitivities...

      My only proof

      Oh wow! Thanks for this information! I’m going to try the Benfotiamine again and will also add a B-complex to my supplements. Presently, I just take sublingual B12 (methylcobalomin). Is supplementation for celiacs always necessary even though you remain gluten-free and you’re healing as shown on endoscopy? I also take D3, mag glycinate, and try to get cal...

      Segments of the protein Casein are the same as segments of the protein strands of gluten, the 33-mer segment.   The cow's body builds that Casein protein.  It doesn't come from wheat.   Casein can trigger the same reaction as being exposed to gluten in some people.   This is not a dairy allergy (IGE mediated response).  It is not lactose intolerance.

      Hello, @NanceK, I'm glad you're willing to give Benfotiamine with B Complex another go!  I'm certain you'll feel much better.   Yes, supplementation is a good idea even if you're healing and gluten free.  The gluten free diet can be low in B vitamins and other nutrients. A nutritionist can help guide you to a nutrient dense diet, but food sensitivities and food preferences can limit choices.  I can't consume fish and shellfish due to the sulfa hypersensitivity and iodine content, and dairy is out as well.  I react to casein, the protein in dairy, as well as the iodine in dairy.  My Dermatitis Herpetiformis is aggravated by iodine.   Blood tests for B vitamin levels are notoriously inaccurate.  You can have deficiency symptoms before blood levels change to show a deficiency.  I had subclinical vitamin deficiencies for years which affected my health, leading to a slow downward spiral.  Because the B vitamins are water soluble, they are easily excreted in urine if not needed.  It's better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.   Wheat and other gluten containing grain products have vitamins and minerals added to them to replace those nutrients lost in processing.  Manufacturers add cheap vitamins that our bodies don't absorb or utilize well.  Even normal people can suffer from vitamin deficiencies.  The rise in obesity can be caused by High Calorie Malnutrition, where people eat more carbohydrate calories but don't get sufficient thiamine and B vitamins to turn the calories into energy.  The calories are stored as fat in an effort to ration out diminishing thiamine  stores.    It's time to buy your own vitamins in forms like Benfotiamine that our bodies can use well.   Not sleeping well and fatigue are symptoms of Thiamine deficiency.   I'm certain Benfotiamine with a B Complex will help you immensely.  Just don't take them at night since B vitamins provide lots of energy, you can become too energetic to sleep.  Better to take them earlier in your day.   Do keep me posted on your progress!

Is supplementation for celiacs always necessary even though you remain gluten-free and you’re healing as shown on endoscopy? I also take D3, mag glycinate, and try to get calcium through diet. I am trying to bump up my energy level because I don’t sleep very well and feel fatigued quite often. I’m now hopeful that adding the Benfotiamine and B-complex will help. I really appreciate your explanation and advice! Thanks again Knitty Kitty!
