Megan's First Birthday

TCA

Just wanted to let all of you know that my baby girl had a wonderful gluten free first birthday. Because of her heart surgeries, I made her a gluten free heart shaped cake with pink cream cheese icing. It was delish! She couldn't eat any because of her gagging issues, but she had fun playing in her cupcake. Thanks for all the support over the past few months. She's doing so much better now that we're gluten-free.

We went to a feeding clinic yesterday and her dietician's mother-in-law has celiac disease. It's so awesome to have someone who understands to help us at last! Just had to share my excitement!!! The new dietian has also found something called Compleat Pediatric, which is something we can give her by her feeding tube to increase her caloric intake and put some weight on her before surgery. I hope it works since all the formulas made her sooo sick. This is basically blenderized whole foods like beef and carrots, etc. The only thing she has tolerated so far is breast milk and my supply is falling off.

We also got a call from Vanderbilt today and the next sugery is scheduled for August 15. Please keep her in your prayers.

Gotta go get the little princess into her bed. She's snoozing in her swing at the moment after a long day of partying!

      Does anyone here also have Afib

      By Keith Hatfield · Posted

      Many years ago yes, after eating and going to bed, apparently my esophagus filled with food that my body rejected, the esophagus would lay against the Heart sack (pericardium?) and the heart would respond by becoming arrhythmic. That went away with the strict diet.

      I was commenting on the report saying it did not mention migraines! Yes it does last paragraph says have not seen any evidence that Celiac cause migraines! I thought this was about truth?

      It has been known for some years that celiacs suffer from migraines at a higher rate than the general populatation. It is an established symptom.

      I suffer so bad with migraines when I eat gluten! Yes diagnosed celiac disease n 2015 and it took me years to discover gluten was behind me having severe migraines.  So yes it happens there has to be others like me!

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      If black seed oil is working for his Afib, stick to it, but if not, I can say that ablation therapy is no big deal--my mother was out of the procedure in about 1 hour and went home that evening, and had zero negative effects from the treatment. PS - I would recommend that your husband get an Apple watch to monitor his Afib--there is an app and it will take readings 24/7 and give reports on how much of the time he's in it. Actual data like this should be what should guide his treatment.
