Katie! Good to have your name. :) I do hope you know I was only kidding about teh middle-aged man stuff. ;)

Oh folks.....I have what we call the TRIPLE THREAT or HIDEOUS FEMALE TRIFECTA today. :(

Thrown out lower back, a glutening from last night's OUTSTANDING Ethiopian food (and this confuses me since there have been THREE intentional cheatings recently with NO reaction whatsoever), and ALSO started my period today. :angry:

the pain in the lower torso is indescribable - sorry to the guys but imagine JUST your gut and lower back killing you - then add a uterus that wants to exit your body. :huh: ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh my friend came over to walk the dingos, thank God, I am out of commission all day. (maybe magic place later on from drugs, we will see.)

carry on.....dingo OUT.

Awwww, Susie, sorry to hear you out of commission. :( If you brought home a dingo(doggy) bag from the restaraunt last night . . . THROW IT OUT. . . and don't pull a Constanza and go rumaging after it in the trash bin later! . . . Oh, I know you would NEVER do that! :lol:

Hope you're feeling better soon. :)

I wondered if Ethiopians use teff for bread. Thought I'd heard that.

Annnnnnnnnnnnd Pseu-zee .. . . :( secret experiments :(

If we gave them a silly name could we hear about them? ^_^

:ph34r: oh you know me too well. Got up this morning, ate it PROMPTLY for breakfast. :ph34r: Had not thrown it into trash so Costanza was not necessary (though do we not all know that I am NOT above that :lol: ). It was just too yummy and we all figured out the problem last night - - there were NINE vegetarian items, one had toasted wheat berries = I AXED them to leave that one off - they didn't. I ate around it. :ph34r: One of the owners of the restaurant is a doctor - she kept telling me things about Celiac and I asked how she knew so much - - finally she confessed. I LOVE her!!!!!!!

Well, come on now! figured eating around the wheat berries would be okay since three recent intentional cheatings resulted in NOTHING!!!! :huh: *yeah, half a pizza, and NOTHING??? WTH)

okay so - - update - - had a BRIEF period in bathroom this morning - five minutes? - glutening? I dunno. Mostly it was lower back and menstrual malaise today. All will be quite well by tomorrow. :)

Julie - - LOVE that bird kicking his leg up. Like the coach I love from MadTV. :lol:

and nighty'night!!!!!!

Wow, Snowball has got him some rhythm! And I had to go look (I'm a softy when it comes to animals), he has been adopted.

OK, SueZee, we are expecting to hear from you today.

Light, I have a DLB, too. We couldn't stand each other until we both had moved out. Just me being gone wasn't good enough because he was such a sloth and took terrible advantage of my parents (or so I thought). Now that we are both OLD and he has lost a LOT of hair (hehe), we get along a lot better and I wish I could see him more often. We do act pretty juvenile when we are both visiting the parents at the same time . . . some habits die hard. We even got yelled at by mom and were told to set a better example for the grandchildren (he started it though . . . he ketp LOOKING at me and he crossed over the line to MY side of the seat).

The whole thread is pretty quiet on weekends. That is because most of the contributors write when they are "working." :lol: :lol: :lol:

Feeling MUCH better today! :)

I highly recommend Ethiopian food for Celiacs. They do use teff (an ethiopian grrain high in protein) and for their own pancake-like bread, they mix it w/ other flours. For mine, she just used teff and olive oil.

I don't know if I was glutened yesterday or not. :huh:

Just know entire torso area was not a happy place.

Am feeling like quite the dullard today, got nuttin' funny to say. And dingos are starting to stare.

CARRY ON SILLIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey, Katie, one of my kids is just like that. He was the first kid to be expelled from any home school whatsoever! We sent him to boarding school for the second semester because we didn't know what else to do with him at that point .... he got "the talk" at the boarding school -- "We've never had to expel someone and we don't want you to be the first"

He's still a pain in the rear end, but he's a senior, so he can be his own problem soon.

Since I'm so sick, my kids do all the cleaning and laundry around here .... they all have to pitch in. Seventeen year old son is in charge of the yard since he can't get along working with anyone ....

Susie, sorry you're feeling bad ... QUIT eating gluten! It may not give you digestive issues anymore, but eventually it will build up. I don't think you want to be in the mental place you were before even if the bathroom issues aren't bothering you .... [/end of I can't help it I'm a mom rant]

Was it at all disappointing like Carla's?

I'd forgotten all about a conversation I had many yrs ago w/ a long-time celiac. I was still yrs away from 100% gluten-free.

He said he cheats every 6 months w/out repercussions.

mmmmmmm vicarious cheeeeeeeating <drool>

donut? pie? :unsure: croissant?

I'm one of five. Even though my younger brother and I argued a lot, we were the two youngest. At times, it was necessary to team up. Talk about unsupervised . . . I think the phrase "You're not the boss of me! :angry: " started at our house. :lol:

I have six ... I hear that phrase! Usually it's the girls against the boys in our house, though the girls will fight amongst themselves and so will the boys, but they team up when it's a boy/girl disagreement.

I may be the only one who finds this video anything more than mildly amusing but I saw it today and I laugh harder every time I watch it.

I'm having post-gluten grumpiness so my fiance has been finding me funny clips on youtube to watch and for some reason this one found my funny bone. I think I've even seen it on TV before and didn't find it that funny but seeing it today was a different story.

So if everyone else finds it to be rather lame, lets just blame it on my brain being affected by gluten.

Did you add the second sentence or did I just not see it??? Uh, oh, maybe the brain fog is getting worse. :huh:

My bird was dancing yesterday ... my son was holding him and walked into the family room ... the TV was on and the commercial had music that he apparently liked so he was hopping all around, bouncing and putting his crown up. It was hysterical. Then he stood on my son's head for a few minutes trying to take a nap! You know how birds stand on one foot and tuck their heads in their back .... but he kept slipping off my son's head!

He won't stand on my head because I'm the head of his flock ... he knows I'm boss. Birds are wild animals, so dominance is important to them ... and to you if you don't want to be bitten. :)

Ok, ok, I'll see your delirium and silliness and raise you a loopy and a slightly off-balance:

According to dictionary.com, cack (n) - a soft-soled, heelless shoe for infants.

So I can only deduce that a "Cackatoo" is a cockatoo that wears baby booties.

      @catnapt, Wheat germ has very little gluten in it. Gluten is the carbohydrate storage protein, what the flour is made from, the fluffy part. Just like with beans, there's the baby plant that will germinate ("germ"-inate) if sprouted, and the bean part is the carbohydrate storage protein.

      Raising you vitamin D will increase absorption of calcium automatically without supplementation of calcium.  A high PTH can be caused by low D causing poor calcium absorption; not insuffient calcium intake.  With low D your body is not absorbing calcium from your food so it steals it from your bones.  Heart has priority over bone. I've been taking 10,000 IU D3 a day since 2015.  My doctor says to continue. To fix my lactose intolerance, lots of lactobacillus from yogurts, and brine fermented pickles and saurkraut and olives.  We lose much of our ability to make lactase endogenosly with maturity but a healthy colony of lactobacillus in our gut excretes lactase in exchange for room and board. The milk protein in grass fed milk does not bother me. It tastes like the milk I grew up on.  If I drink commercial milk I get heartburn at night. Some experts estimate that 90% of us do not eat Adequite Intake of choline.  Beef and eggs are the principle source. Iodine deficiency is a growing concern.  I take 600 mcg a day of Liquid Iodine.  It and NAC have accelerated my healing all over.  Virtually blind in my right eye after starting antihypertensive medication and vision is slowly coming back.  I had to cut out starches because they drove my glucose up into the 200+ range.  I replaced them with Red Bull for the glucose intake with the vitamins, minerals and Taurine needed to process through the mitochodria Krebs Cycle to create ATP.  Went from A1c 13 down to 7.9.  Work in progress. Also take B1,B2,B3,B5,B6. Liquid Iodine, Phosphatidyl Choline, Q10, Selenium, D and DHEA.     Choline supplemented as phosphatidylcholine decreases fasting and postmethionine-loading plasma homocysteine concentrations in healthy men +

Luckily you still have time to do a proper gluten challenge (10 grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks) before your next appointment when you can be retested.

      Hello, @asaT, I'm curious to know whether you are taking other B vitamins like Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3.  Malabsorption in Celiac disease affects all the water soluble B vitamins and Vitamin C.  Thiamine and Niacin are required to produce energy for all the homocysteine lowering reactions provided by Folate, Cobalamine and Pyridoxine.   Weight gain with a voracious appetite is something I experienced while malnourished.  It's symptomatic of Thiamine B1 deficiency.   Conversely, some people with thiamine deficiency lose their appetite altogether, and suffer from anorexia.  At different periods on my lifelong journey, I suffered this, too.   When the body doesn't have sufficient thiamine to turn food, especially carbohydrates, into energy (for growth and repair), the body rations what little thiamine it has available, and turns the carbs into fat, and stores it mostly in the abdomen.  Consuming a high carbohydrate diet requires additional thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  Simple carbohydrates (sugar, white rice, etc.) don't contain thiamine, so the body easily depletes its stores of Thiamine processing the carbs into fat.  The digestive system communicates with the brain to keep eating in order to consume more thiamine and other nutrients it's not absorbing.   One can have a subclinical thiamine insufficiency for years.  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function, so the symptoms can wax and wane mysteriously.  Symptoms of Thiamine insufficiency include stunted growth, chronic fatigue, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi (diarrhea, abdominal pain), heart attack, Alzheimer's, stroke, and cancer.   Thiamine improves bone turnover.  Thiamine insufficiency can also affect the thyroid.  The thyroid is important in bone metabolism.  The thyroid also influences hormones, like estrogen and progesterone, and menopause.  Vitamin D, at optimal levels, can act as a hormone and can influence the thyroid, as well as being important to bone health, and regulating the immune system.  Vitamin A is important to bone health, too, and is necessary for intestinal health, as well.   I don't do dairy because I react to Casein, the protein in dairy that resembles gluten and causes a reaction the same as if I'd been exposed to gluten, including high tTg IgA.  I found adding mineral water containing calcium and other minerals helpful in increasing my calcium intake.   Malabsorption of Celiac affects all the vitamins and minerals.  I do hope you'll talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing all eight B vitamins and the four fat soluble vitamins because they all work together interconnectedly.

The D3 does have coconut oil but it is non GMO, it is Gluten free, Soy free, Soybean free and Safflower oil free.  I have a cupboard full of supplements that did not agree with me -  I just keep trying and have finally settled on Sports Research. I take NAKA Women's Multi full spectrum, and have not felt sick after taking 2 capsules per day -  it is a Canadian company. I buy both from Amazon. I wish you well in your searching, I know how discouraging it all is. Florence.

      highly unlikely  NOTHING and I mean NOTHING else has ever caused me these kinds of symptoms I have no problem with dates, they are a large part of my diet In fact, I eat a very high fiber, very high vegetable and bean diet and have for many years now. It's considered a whole foods plant based or plant forward diet (I do now eat some lean ground turkey but not much) I was off dairy for years but recently had to add back plain yogurt to meet calcium needs that I am not allowed to get from supplements (I have not had any problem with the yogurt)   I eat almost no processed foods. I don't eat out. almost everything I eat, I cook myself I am going to keep a food diary but to be honest, I already know that it's wheat products and also barley that are the problem, which is why I gradually stopped eating and buying them. When I was eating them, like back in early 2024, when I was in the middle of moving and ate out (always had bread or toast or rolls or a sub or pizza) I felt terrible but at that time was so busy and exhausted that I never stopped to think it was the food. Once I was in my new place, I continued to have bread from time to time and had such horrible joint pain that I was preparing for 2 total knee replacements as well as one hip! The surgery could not go forward as I was (and still am) actively losing calcium from my bones. That problem has yet to be properly diagnosed and treated   anyway over time I realized that I felt better when I stopped eating bread. Back at least 3 yrs ago I noticed that regular pasta made me sick so I switched to brown rice pasta and even though it costs a lot more, I really like it.   so gradually I just stopped buying and eating foods with gluten. I stopped getting raisin bran when I was constipated because it made me bloated and it didn't help the constipation any more (used to be a sure bet that it would in the past)   I made cookies and brownies using beans and rolled oats and dates and tahini and I LOVE them and have zero issues eating those I eat 1 or more cans of beans per day easily can eat a pound of broccoli - no problem! Brussels sprouts the same thing.   so yeh it's bread and related foods that are clearly the problem  there is zero doubt in my mind
