Nikki -- good googly moogly -- don't take that from your kids' pediatrician's office . . . call every day and ask if there have been any cancellations. In fact, if you call first thing in the morning, and then right before noon, after two days, you'll be in. They don't want you calling and asking all the time!! They have openings that they keep "free" so that the doctors can catch up, or if there is an emergency. They'll fill them, though, if someone bugs them enough . . . because they don't want you to call them again (my daughter worked as a clerk for a pediatrician's office) .. . . . be a thorn in their butt -- not their side -- and you will get in VERY soon!!!!!

My son and I were discussing Rachelville . . . we decided that I can't be a STAND UP comic, because, well, I'm in a wheelchair . . . so I'm a SIT DOWN comic!!!!! Also, when I told him that I was the town storyteller, he said, "oh you mean a Bard?" That is what they used to be called . . . people who would wander the town, as a minstrel and storyteller . . . so maybe that should be changed as well.

Also . . . my son is a hunky 23 year-old . . . and plays the BEST jazz saxophone I've heard . . . but it's the old stuff . . . Duke Ellington, Glen Miller, Coltrane, etc. . . . . . He could be an asset to Rachelville. He's also very capable, and bust-a-gut funny . . . .

p.s. Carla - gorgeous photo and nice to see you !

Thank you ... Christmas Eve last year standing in front of my stove cooking dinner!! :P It was 2 weeks after going gluten-free.

It's good to be here!!

Gosh, took the kids to the pool and came back to a book to read! Skimmed over it ... I'm leaving here again in a little bit and won't be able to check in till tomorrow ... gosh, it'll be another 30 pages by then! :D

For music, I've always pretty much listened to anything anyone else wants to hear. I like about anything except twangy country (some of the newer stuff is good) or rap. My husband just bought us tickets to see the Commodores. That should be fun.

He's a pretty good guy . . . he just took me to my physical therapy appointment -- took off work to do it. Then, took me to the bookstore . . . . He has a HUGE collection of vinyl records . . . LOVES the classics . . . big Sinatra fan, but because I endured YEARS of squeaky saxophone practice, everyone can now benefit from the EXCELLENT baritone sax that he plays (also plays alto & tenor -- has an alto and a bari) . . . He can also play acoustic guitar, electric guitar, electric bass, banjo, clarinet, drums . . . can't think of what else, but I know that those are the instruments he has . . . (can you tell why I'm poor?????) Actually, I forgot -- the drums are Ashley's -- she plays drums, marimba, xylophone, piano . . . and I'm going to try to send via e-mail to you guys who want it the song that was played before their wedding . . . (she sings opera).

Okay, I've bragged enough . . . .

Premature posting....

Now...if it were me who could eat these muffins...well you can be damn sure I'd be walking around looking like Donna with crumbs all over my mouth and little puffs of muffin flying out everytime someone speaks to me. :D

:lol: new word....crumage! :lol:

I still havent heard anything back about my ultrasound. They said my doc would call in a day or two..its almost been two weeks now. <_<

Do you think they have seen the alien baby and are not sure what to do about it. I remember it felt as if he was quite disturbed that day after I poured about a gallon of water into my gut. :huh:

I'm getting a little worried...I shall call them today.

Call. Dr. R said he would call in a week and it was 3 weeks, but not until AFTER I called the nurse, lol. Talk about being worried...I had myself convinced I had pancreatic cancer by that point. I think more likely (as was in my case) they may be having the results looked at by more than one person.

Donna, remember how in R-Ville everything is happy and perfect?? We dont really kill things here...especially in such a violent manner. :o

I'm thinking we may actually need an intervention clinic in the town....it will be a busy place I'm sure. :rolleyes:

Oh yes, now I remember. :lol:

Glad Andrea got all straightened out on the Queen song. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Queen, listened to it all the time growing up, Another One Bites The Dust......

Chelse- I also am a HUGE fan of the classic rock genre, I see you on your Free Bird.

Hi evie!!! How are you feeling?? I hope better.

Susie- I heard that giving blood takes a lot out of you energy wise, don't really have first hand experience, but given how you have been feeling, with the D and all, it makes me worry. You also kill me with all of your posts, so hysterical!!

I'm trying to remember some groups even back in college. I can't. I know one song that I hate being stuck in my head is "Blasphemous Rumors" but I couldn't tell you the group anymore.

That would be Depeche Mode

Ah, music. Love it. Love classic rosk. When I was young (here's showing some age folks), my favorite group was Led Zeppelin. Now, I don't have time to listen to much except the music for choir and the small group. ;)

Okay, it's 2:20 and still no chocolate, although I was really hungry and all I had to eat was some plums from our trees. Anyway, I think I'm safe on the chocolate for today since I leave here in 10 minutes and have no chocolate at home. Thank goodness for laziness...otherwise a trip to the store might tempt me, but alas, I am lazy so no stops. :rolleyes:

Susan - put down that nugget and back away! :lol:

Nope, you won't catch me laughing at you. Love that Bluegrass, Celtic, and OLD Country.

BTW, my daughter, the Elvis fan, is taking off for Memphis on Thursday, for all the goings-on at Graceland. It's an annual pilgrimage.

Funny you should mention telemarketers, Andrea. We have not been able to receive incoming calls on our phone for about 2 weeks. They sent a man out last week, couldn't figure it out :blink: . New man comes today, figures out that the problem is a broken wire, underground somewhere between the entrance of the neighborhood and my house. As of 3 pm today, have phone service back. Have also gotten 2 telemarketer calls since! :D They came out of the woodwork as soon as the line opened up! :lol:

I always loved 70's AM radio music growing up. Motown, Bee Gees, Neil Diamond--all that stuff. I still like that music today--the XM Radio has a 70's station that I listen to a lot. My sons are into 70's rock--Steely Dan, Led Zeppelin--I remember when it was all on the radio as new music! My older son also got me into a little Hip Hop.

I also love Country Music--old and new. That's what I tend to listen to in the car the most--good to sing to :D

I also really like showtunes :ph34r:

Susan,

Past male friend who drinks could be trouble if you can't disassociate the past happenings (ie. going out drinking) with now. If it will encourage you to old habits....then no, no, no.

If you are ready to date, which I thought you said you weren't, and it won't pose a problem of past associations then it's a possibility.

      Other diseases, medical conditions, medications and even (for some people) some non-gluten foods can cause villous atrophy. There is also something called refractory celiac disease but it is pretty uncommon.

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      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!

      @Hmart, The reason why your intestinal damage was so severe, yet your tTg IgA was so minimal can be due to cutting back on gluten (and food in general) due to worsening symptoms.  The tTg IgA antibodies are made in the intestines.  While three grams of gluten per day for several weeks are enough to cause gastrointestinal symptoms, ten grams of gluten per day for for several weeks are required to provoke sufficient antibody production so that the antibodies move out of the intestines and into the blood stream where they can be measured in blood tests.  Since you reduced your gluten consumption before testing, the antibody production went down and did not leave the intestines, hence lower than expected tTg IgA.   Still having abdominal pain and other symptoms this far out is indicative of nutritional deficiencies.  With such a severely damaged small intestine, you are not absorbing sufficient nutrients, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1, so your body us burning stored fat and even breaking down muscle to fuel your body.   Yes, it is a very good idea to supplement with vitamins and minerals during healing.  The eight essential B vitamins are water soluble and easily lost with diarrhea.  The B vitamins all work together interconnectedly, and should be supplemented together.  Taking vitamin supplements provides your body with greater opportunity to absorb them.  Thiamine and the other B vitamins cannot be stored for long, so they must be replenished every day.  Thiamine tends to become depleted first which leads to Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a condition that doctors frequently fail to recognize.  Symptoms of Gastrointestinal Beriberi are abdominal pain and nausea, but neuropathy can also occur, as well as body and joint pain, headaches and more.  Heart rhythm disruptions including tachycardia are classic symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  Heart attack patients are routinely administered thiamine now.   Blood tests for vitamins are notoriously inaccurate.  You can have "normal" blood levels, while tissues and organs are depleted.  Such is the case with Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a thiamine deficiency in the digestive tract.  Eating a diet high in carbohydrates, like rice, starches, and sugar, can further deplete thiamine.  The more carbohydrates one eats, the more thiamine is required per calorie to turn carbs into energy.  Burning stored fats require less thiamine, so in times of thiamine shortage, the body burns fat and muscles instead.  Muscle wasting is a classic symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  A high carbohydrate diet may also promote SIBO and/or Candida infection which can also add to symptoms.  Thiamine is required to keep SIBO and Candida in check.   Thiamine works with Pyridoxine B 6, so if Thiamine is low and can't interact with Pyridoxine, the unused B 6 accumulates and shows up as high.   Look into the Autoimmune Protocol diet.  Dr. Sarah Ballantyne is a Celiac herself.  Her book "The Paleo Approach" has been most helpful to me.  Following the AIP diet made a huge improvement in my symptoms.  Between the AIP diet and correcting nutritional deficiencies, I felt much better after a long struggle with not feeling well.   Do talk to your doctor about Gastrointestinal Beriberi.  Share the article linked below. Thiamine, gastrointestinal beriberi and acetylcholine signaling https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12014454/ Keep us posted on your progress!
