Ha ha! :lol: Tame those pube hairs already Susan! :lol::lol: That's a good question! It makes my hair look shiny, healthier and gives me great volume. Read below... Helps reduce dryness and brittleness--which is what the gray hair can be like. Might be worth a try ! Good luck with those :P (Do you ever use conditioners? That might help a bit. I use Giovanni's Smooth as Silk conditioner...its not really heavy.)

Wow Jen, I won't be using any hair product you reccommend, look at how furry your face got! :o:P

And of course nose, cheeks, forehead, ears...and you've got some really long ones on either side of your face. You're beginning to look like a cat! :lol:

What's her name? How old is she?

Wellll, her *given* name is Maggie, but she has plenty of other nicknames...including beotch when she's naughty. But don't worry--she likes it :D She is about 3-3 1/2... We got her from a shelter. She is a major lap cat. She pretty much alternates from sitting on the screened in porch to sitting on whoever is at the desk or on the couch :D One more fun fact: She likes to eat Lundberg Rice Chips--sea salt flavor. She gets that from her mom :D

Her hair looks great, no pubes, is she using the Rosa Mosquito (or whatever the heck it's called) as well? :lol:

I just came back on and I'm reading these posts over and over trying to figure out what you meant by Jen's furry face!!! It finally dawned on me to hit "refresh" because she probably changed her avatar. I can be slow on the uptake sometimes! :lol: Cute picture of Maggie!

You girls are a trip!

I am gonna go to Charlotte (where I live doesn't have squat) on Saturday where they have 2 health food stores there where I plan to buy gluten-free Beer and look for hair stuff! I'll let you know what I end up with. And don't worry, I have no plans to get snockered and do anything crazy to my hair. HAHA!

I remember when we used to put beer on our hair in high school....what was that about? Now you can too, Turtle, since it's gluten-free! ;)

Aubrey makes Rosa Mosqueta conditioner too, right? I can't go without conditioning my hair.

BERNESES! We discovered that all Aubrey conditioners have wheat germ oil in them. We can use the Aubrey shampoos, but with another brand conditioner.

Yep- my parents bought me beer in high school so I could do it. I swera, I never drank it. :P What was that beer shampoo that used to be so popular????

I was looking at the Aubrey stuff today and noticed the conditioners had wheat so zi just got the shampoo. Thanks for the heads up though!

      Blood results

      By trents · Posted

      Maybe celiac but maybe NCGS that was misdiagnosed as IBS morphing gradually into celiac. Is NCGS a new category to you? It shares many of the same GI symptoms with celiac disease but does not damage the small bowel lining like celiac.

      Oral thrush question

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Thiamine has antifungal properties.  The body uses thiamine to keep bacteria and yeasts from overgrowth in the digestive system.   Fluconazole use can cause thiamine deficiency.   Supplementing with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine would be beneficial as Benfotiamine promotes intestinal healing.   Thiamine and the other B vitamins tend to be low in Celiac due to malabsorption.  Talk to your doctor about supplementing vitamins and minerals.

      Nutrient deficiencies despite normal MARSH and strict gluten-free diet

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome @Natalia Revelo, your experience is profoundly difficult and, sadly, not entirely unique within the celiac community. It's the frustrating reality of "silent" or ongoing damage that isn't captured by the MARSH score alone, which only measures active villous atrophy. Your normal biopsy suggests your diet is preventing the classic autoimmune attack, but it doesn't mean your gut has fully healed or that other issues aren't at play. The inflammation from your newly discovered milk and egg allergies is a huge clue; this constant allergic response can create a low-grade inflammatory environment that severely hampers nutrient absorption, effectively creating a "leaky gut" scenario independent of celiac damage. This is likely why your iron stores deplete so rapidly—your body is both unable to absorb it efficiently and may be losing it through inflammation. While the functional medicine path is expensive, it's clearly providing answers and relief that traditional gastroenterology, focused solely on the gluten-free diet and biopsy results, is missing. To move forward, continue the gut-healing protocols your functional doctor recommends (perhaps exploring alternative options to glutamine that won't irritate your cystitis), maintain your strict avoidance of all allergens and irritants, and know that true healing is a multi-faceted process. You might seek a second opinion from a different gastroenterologist who is more knowledgeable about non-responsive celiac disease and the complex interplay of food allergies and micronutrient absorption, but your current path, while costly, seems to be leading you toward the steady health you need.

      Blood results

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Have you had a DNA test to look for Celiac disease genes?  If she doesn't have any celiac specific genes, look for another explanation.  If she does have Celiac genes, assume they are turned on and active Celiac disease is progressing.  All first degree relatives (mother, father, siblings, children) should be genetically tested as well.   Sometimes blood tests are ambiguous or false negatives if one has anemia, diabetes or thiamine deficiency.  Certain medications like antihistamines and steroids can suppress the immune system and result in false negatives or ambiguous results on antibody tests.

      That was just the visual report, so need to wait for confirmation or otherwise from the results. They did take a biopsy from the upper end of the duodenum(D1). D2 looked unremarkable on the camera. Just wish we didn’t have to wait so long for the results as she’s naturally a very anxious person. But thanks so much for taking the time to answer me
