Mornin Judith B) Hope you get to that meeting and have a great time!

Amanda--you sound swamped! :( Hope things settle down at work and I especially hope that John gets some answers as to what's been wrong. You're both in me thoughts :)

Pataughmn!!! SO good to see you, but wish things were going better for you, too. There are times when I wish I didn't have to eat at all--ugh :angry:

Lee-saugh--I get the BeFreeForMe's too :D

Sillies-

I know you are all skilled in the kitchen--well better than me.

Anyone have a recipe for homemade garlic herb sauce for pasta?? I am hoping to find something so I can make it for me and John,

BTW I am taking this gluten-free cooking class next week. I am excited.

Thought for the Day from BeFreeForME.com........

"Life expectancy would grow by leaps and bounds if green vegetables smelled as good as bacon."

- Doug Larson

American Columnist

:D

Ahhhhh..LUV IT!!! I'd be eating lots more veggies if that was the case...and would actually enjoy them in the process!!! When I was growing up (in a large family), bacon was a real treat. When mom fixed it we got generally 2 pieces of bacon....just not enough!!! When I moved out on my own, I had a real brainstorm....I could buy a pound of bacon and have as much as I wanted. SO....I proceeded to eat the whole dang thing...got really sick on it...and couldn't touch bacon for a loooooonggg time :P . I have, however, overcome this insanity and love bacon again!! In moderation, of course! :lol:

oooohhhh, Tickle Tawm.....you need some tickle therapy....I guess. Wish so much I had some answers for you! Food and eating become a real problem in this house. Telehubby loves to eat, and would love to have meals already planned and fixed for him....which I do a great deal of the time. The problem is that MOST of the time I could not care less IF I ate, much less what and when! Puts a real hamper of the planning part!

Am keeping us all in prayer for healing, for happy positive outlooks, for satisfaction in our daily lives. ;)

I heard someone in the office here mentioned someone have kidney stones and they were talking about the surgical removal and it was a male patient and they used the term shaft.....had me chuckle!

Oh. One can actually purchase a thing that is solely designed for shooting marshmallows?? Man, what I've missed. . . . . . ... ... :lol: When and at what does one shoot marshmallows? (besides at a parade, of course) Stealthfully, at neighboUrs? At the cat? Out in the rain?

I did not know such a thing existed, but I DO know that I should be procuring one for my dad as he sits in his hospital room.....what a terrific thing to behold, my dad blasting marshmallows at old patients passing by with their walkers, or at the uptight nurses who charge in to test his blood. This would motivate him to get up and over to his window.....start firing marshmallows at cars whizzing by, or orderlies out on their break. .. . . . ..

'Tis a fabulous idea for rehabilitation.....gonna check ebay.

Reminds of a bus ride. The island bus is small, and we all know each other. One evening this guy gets on the bus with a piece of PVC piping. Another guy looks at the pipe for a few minutes, then says: potato gun?

First guy says: yep.

Second guy thinks for a minute and says: wife outta town?

First guy grins and says: yep.

      @sleuth, Has your son been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  All of those symptoms can be caused by malnutrition.  I had severe malnutrition that went unrecognized by my doctors.  Intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, and gastrointestinal distress are symptoms of deficiencies in the eight essential B vitamins, especially Thiamine B1, which becomes low first because the demand is higher when we're sick.     Celiac Disease causes inflammation and damage of the intestinal lining which inhibits absorption of essential nutrients.  Checking for nutritional deficiencies is part of proper follow up care for people with celiac disease.   Is your son taking any vitamin supplements?  Most supplements contain thiamine mononitrate which in not readily absorbed and utilized by the body.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that is shown to promote intestinal healing.  Benfotiamine is available over the counter.  Benfotiamine is safe and nontoxic.   Is your son eating processed gluten-free foods?  Gluten-free processed foods are not required to be enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.   Is your son following a low histamine diet?  Histamine is released as part of the immune response to gluten and other foods high in histamine.  High levels of histamine in the brain can cause anxiety, insomnia, and depression.  The body needs the B vitamins to make the enzyme Diamine Oxidase (DAO) to break down and clear histamine.  DAO supplements are available over the counter.  Vitamin C helps clear histamine as well.  Some people find over the counter antihistamines helpful as well, but they're not for long term use.   Nicotine has antihistamine-like properties, but can also irritate the gut.  Tobacco, from which nicotine is derived, is a nightshade (like tomatoes, potatoes, peppers and eggplant).  Nightshades contain alkaloids which affect gastrointestinal permeability, causing leaky gut syndrome.  Nicotine can cause gastrointestinal irritation and alter for the worse the microbiome. Safer alternatives to Nicotine that have antihistamine properties include Lemon Balm (Sweet Melissa),  Passion Flower, Chamomile, and Bilberry.  They can be taken as supplements, extracts, or tea.  These will help with the anxiety, insomnia and depression in a much safer way. Oolong tea is also helpful.  Oolong tea contains the amino acid L-Theanine which helps the digestive tract heal.  (L -Theanine supplements are available over the counter, if not a tea drinker.)  Tryptophan, a form of Niacin B3, also helps calm digestive symptoms.  Another amino acid, L-Lysine, can help with anxiety and depression.  I've used these for years without problems.   What ways to cope have you tried in the past?

      In general if it is labelled gluten-free then it should be ok for most celiacs, however, those who are super sensitive (which is most who have dermatitis herpetiformis) may want to eat only certified gluten-free items, which are supposed to test down to 10ppm (but don't always!).

      Have faith, you will survive. I get mine from Pipingrock.com.  500 capsules of 10,000 IU for $22.  That is almost two years worth for me.  250 caps 5000 IU for $6.69 if you only take 5,000 a day.  It's like half the price of Walmart.
    • Wheatwacked
      Testing can't alone be trusted.  Else why would it take so many years of testing and retesting and misdiagnosis to finally be told, yes you have Celiac Disease. As to what to eat, I like pre 1950 style food.  Before the advent of TV dinners.  Fresh food is better for you, and cooking from scratch is cheaper.  Watch Rachel Ray's 30 Minute Meals for how to cook.  Keep in mind that she is not gluten free, but her techniques are awesome.  Just use something else instead of wheat, barley, rye. Dr Fuhrman is a ex cardiologist.  His book Eat to Live and Dr Davis' book Wheatbelly were instrumental in my survival.
