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 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:

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      By trents · Posted

      Cristiana, that sounds like a great approach and I will be looking forward to the results. I am in the same boat as you. I don't experience overt symptoms with minor, cross contamination level exposures so I sometimes will indulge in those "processed on equipment that also processes wheat . . ." or items that don't specifically claim to be gluten free but do not list gluten containing grains in their ingredient list. But I always wonder if I am still experiencing sub acute inflammatory reactions. I haven't had any celiac antibody blood work done since my diagnosis almost 25 years ago so I don't really have any data to go by.

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      By cristiana · Posted

      I've been reflecting on this further. The lowest TTG I've ever managed was 4.5 (normal lab reading under 10).  Since then it has gone up to 10.   I am not happy with that.  I can only explain this by the fact that I am eating out more these days and that's where I'm being 'glutened', but such small amounts that I only occasionally react. I know some of it is also to do with eating products labelled 'may contain gluten' by mistake - which in the UK means it probably does! It stands to reason that as I am a coeliac any trace of gluten will cause a response in the gut.  My villi are healed and look healthy, but those lymphocytes are present because of the occasional trace amounts of gluten sneaking into my diet.   I am going to try not to eat out now until my next blood test in the autumn and read labels properly to avoid the may contain gluten products, and will then report back to see if it has helped!

      Low iron and vitamin d

      By lizzie42 · Posted

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer.  Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks on supplements she is cheerful, sleeping better and looks better. The red rimmed eyes and dark circles are much better.   AND her Ttg was a 3!!!!!! So, we are crushing the gluten-free diet which is great. But WHY are her iron and vit d low if she's not getting any gluten????  She's on 30mg of iron per day and also a multivitamin and vit d supplement (per her dr). That helped her feel better quickly. But will she need supplements her whole life?? Or is there some other reason she's not absorbing iron? We eat very healthy with minimal processed food. Beef maybe 1x per week but plenty of other protein including eggs daily.  She also says her tummy hurts every single morning. That was before the iron (do not likely a side effect). Is that common with celiac?
