I am so excited you guys as well as my family will actually get the print copy. I am going to grab a whole bunch at the store and send them out to others not in the area. :)

SO I am cleaning today with John being sick and me being in and out all week the house has taken a backseat. The laundry for work is lighter than usual since John's clothes were clean from last week yet. I did buy some new tops at thrifts shop this week I need to wash.

I am also cleaning out clothes that I no longer need.

Is Michelle using poodles? Snoodles (snowy poodles)?

:lol::lol: Mercifully, no....They would be constantly stopping, dropping onto their backs and spraying snow around. Not a great visual for the promotion of the majesty and grit of this fine sporting event... :lol::rolleyes:

I SAVED all Richard's avatar . Does that make me an avatarsseur?

Yes! And if you're male, an avatasseuse.... :D

Susie violated the rules of her contract by not reporting in yesterday and will be subject to a SEVERE punishment

I was wondering about this...Our queen must proclaim the disciplinary action to be taken. Susie may lose some emoticons, or have a text limit...Mygawd.....Susie with a text limit?! :lol:

OMG...hilarious. Are you handed papers like these to mark, Bev? I'm strictly ESL right now, but when I was looking at Anglophone students' work, I was frequently floored by this kind of...writing..... :o:rolleyes:

OH . . . I save Avs, too.

Excellent av, Janet!! Gawd....methinks I should be taking my profile pic off here for a while.... :ph34r:

there is another lady in the Downingtown one.

...And I am certain that this other lady could not hold a candle to our Amanda. Probably talking about the great price of produce there, the friendliness of the staff, blah blah blah.....Amanda slides in, gives a spectacular endorsement of an establishment which has her business due to their large supply of foods that she can eat on her life-saving diet...

Get people thinking..."Gee, maybe I should check out Wegmans. I've got some digestive issues. And perhaps I should research this condition a little more...and tell some people...." GO AMANDA! :D

Well searching for something today I opened....my clothes stank of smoke....and I dont even smoke. So now I will need to wash all those clothes again! How horrible!

Yep she is expecting a girl, named Lydia Hayden. Her water broke yesterday...but it was just a trickle. Now she is at the hospital and we should expect our niece in the next 24 hrs. We are still home, the Hospital is 10 minutes away. We will get there right after she arrives. His sis told us not to hurry.

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      Tea Bags and Gluten

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      Inconclusive results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

      Medication

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome to the community! Generally, for a gluten challenge before celiac disease blood tests, Tylenol (acetaminophen) is considered safe and should not interfere with your antibody results. The medications you typically need to avoid are those like ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) or naproxen (Aleve) that can cause intestinal irritation, which could potentially complicate the interpretation of an endoscopy if you were to have one. However, it is absolutely crucial that you confirm this with either your gastroenterologist or your surgeon before your procedure. They know the specifics of your case and can give you the definitive green light, ensuring your surgery is comfortable and your celiac testing remains accurate. Best of luck with your surgery tomorrow
