We should have our Sille (re)union at Canandaigua Lake!!!!!! :D

Very good idea- there is a Wegmans right next to the lake and we can go to Tastings for dinner---so celiac friendly I just want to adopt them :)

Ok, it's time, I can't believe it hasn't happened yet........

It's THRILLER!!!!!!!

K, hope that worked. Anyway.

I need help. I never got tested for Celiac because I just read about it in a book, tried it, got better and moved on. So what tests are out there, what should you get, what tests aren't really trustworthy? I have a friend who lost 80lbs in six months, full of ulcers, and so severely anemic he's getting transfusions almost daily. Sure makes me think Celiac.

Edit: Ack! How do you get the little color font thingys to go away?!?!? I messed up the phormat... crap.

Friend needs bloodwork done:

AGA IgA

AGA IgG

tTG IgA

EMA IgA

total IgA

That's the first step. Some doctors only run tTG and total IgA.

. . . and I've been meaning to ask . . . What's yer current hair coloUr, Lisa?

Which part?

I guess when my husband looks at it......in the back......some brown is showing thru.......have to take his word for it. :huh:

When I look in the mirror, I see mostly faded black........BTW.......my scattering of shiny silver-gray hairs didn't dye.......weren't as notieable with brown hair <_<

When I look down at the ends, I can still see blue. The blonde streaks are MIA.

........I guess you could say I'm a calico :lol:

So what do all these mean, and what results mean positive?

Awww, pattycake. My mother does that, I'm convinced her stomach has the capacity of a two year old. We have to remind her not to overeat, or she'll regret it!

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      Those are driving distance from me--I will try to check them out, thanks for sharing!

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.
