Now, really...considering the nature of this Regal Procession, and its roots, and who the subjects are, I really feel that anyone we involve, whether it be a float-rider, a marching player, a twirler (tassles or otherwise) or part of the royal party, must be celiac, or at the very least gluten intolerant.

Uh, oh, I may only be able to participate on a partial basis then .... the longer I treat the Lyme, the less gluten intolerant I become .... I am gluten-free 100% at home, but not necessarily at restaurants anymore ... no longer drill the waitress/cook/manager. That's okay though, I can only partially play the flute due to the braces.

it sounds like things are going real well for you since treating the Lyme. :) Its good to hear.

I don't drill when we are out to eat as much as I used to and I am doing great.

Sounds reasonable - you're partially gluten intolerant and you'll be partially playing the flute.

Y'all have to stop posting so much while I'm gone. It takes too long to read everything, and it all starts to get jumbled together.

Could someone please explain WHY Charlton Heston will be wearing a care-bear costume and shooting oompa-loompas off of a Wayne Newton float????

Because that is what happens when Silly Yaks convene and put their heads together, you get Charlton Heston dressed as a Care Bear shooting chocolates at oompa loompas off of a Wayne Newton Float set to the backdrop of Meat Loaf songs.

This is totally off topic (redundant here), but yesterday I received a Open Original Shared Linkfan club. Now you may imgine my surprise, as it is not even my birthday!

I know the Hoff has been sent to re-hab, so I'll let it slide...

Wow. You people are Buz-y. I have a few questions...

1: This may be because I'm a partially-sheltered teenager, but WHO is Chuck Norris and Charlton Heston? The first name sounds farmiliar but...

2: Can I shoot the CareBears and Oompa Loompas Also? With my Marshmellow shooter of doom?

3: How did *shiver* Micheal Jackson get into this conversation? He is FREAKY. If he HAS to stay, can we dress him up like the chicken man and have him on a dunking platform?

4: Would you like me to create a sanity box for this parade? So no-one can bring their sanity in? (Grammer, by all means. Sanity, well, go hang yourself first...)

Sorry and/or my bad. Now that would be SILLY

Daughter of the Light, Chuck Norris is a guru of sorts, a real-life MacGyver if you will, the only materials he needs to conquer the world are his keen senses, a karate chop, and a Total Gym....oh and a shirtless chest.

I am busy but I should be more concerned about my desk work...instead I keep refreshing this thread so when the parade starts I don't miss the stepping off point!

We should have some Marshmallow Peeps too!

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.

      Is it gluten?

      @par18, no, Scott's use of the term "false negative" is intentional and appropriate. The "total IGA" test is not a test used to diagnose celiac disease per se. The IGA immune spectrum response encompasses more than just celiac disease. So, "total IGA" refers to the whole pie, not just the celiac response part of it. But if the whole pie is deficient, the...

      This may be the problem. Every time you eat gluten it is like giving a booster shot to your immune system, telling it to react and produce antibodies again.

      Scott, I am mostly asymptomatic. I was diagnosed based on high antibodies, low ferritin (3) and low vitamin D (10). I wasn't able to get in for the biopsy until 3 months after the blood test came back. I was supposed to keep eating gluten during this time. Well why would I continue doing something that I know to be harmful for 3 more months to just get...

The IGA immune spectrum response encompasses more than just celiac disease. So, "total IGA" refers to the whole pie, not just the celiac response part of it. But if the whole pie is deficient, the spectrum of components making it up will likely be also, including the celiac disease response spectrum. In other words, IGA deficiency may produce a tTG-IGA score that is negative that might have been positive had there not been IGA deficiency. So, the tTG-IGA negative score may be "false", i.e, inaccurate, aka, not to be trusted.

      Scott, I am mostly asymptomatic. I was diagnosed based on high antibodies, low ferritin (3) and low vitamin D (10). I wasn't able to get in for the biopsy until 3 months after the blood test came back. I was supposed to keep eating gluten during this time. Well why would I continue doing something that I know to be harmful for 3 more months to just get this test? So I did quit gluten and had the biopsy. It was negative for celiacs. I continued gluten free with iron supps and my ferritin came back up to a reasonable, but not great level of around 30-35.  Could there be something else going on? Is there any reason why my antibodies would be high (>80) with a negative biopsy? could me intestines have healed that quickly (3 months)?  I'm having a hard time staying gluten free because I am asymptomatic and i'm wondering about that biopsy. I do have the celiacs gene, and all of the antibody tests have always come back high. I recently had them tested again. Still very high. I am gluten free mostly, but not totally. I will occasionally eat something with gluten, but try to keep to a minimum. It's really hard when the immediate consequences are nil.  with high antibodies, the gene, but a negative biopsy (after 3 months strict gluten-free), do i really have celiacs? please say no. lol. i think i know the answer.  Asa
