So-o-o-o-o......I throw myselph on the mercy of the court B)

Anywho, it's been rectified (hee! I said "rectified" :P), and you are now back in both "sillie groups".

Smackl had a big project due Wednesday. Skeeter had a small project due Tuesday and voluntarily(Smackl would never do such a thing) signed up for the Science Fair which was last night. We were there for 3 hours!! Smackl has belt testing for TKD tonight. Hubby leaves for a week long trip tomorrow. Throw in the regular stuff . . . homework, piano lessons, blah, blah, blah . . . after hubby leaves, I'm going back to bed for the rest of the day.

Good to see you Juedee.

I need some funny things to say to my FIL on Sunday night. He's a doozy. In town for a couple of days & BIL is having us all over for dinner. Told Bro about Celiac & knows a little & will try hard. I'll bring food, too. FIL is retired dentist who knows everything about anything medical. He will "know" all about Celiacs, too. Probably the only time he heard about it was when he went to a dental convention. It was the workshop he skipped to go to the pool for margaritas. SIL says she is serving lots of wine to help her & I get through it. May eat at the kitchen table with 4 teen boys.

:lol: :lol: Jyaghnutt crackin' up at Patti crackin' herself up cracks me RIGHT up. ... ...

Kherrighn, I remember addressing the subject of celiac to my dentist when I was first diagnosed, as it likely explained my lifelong battle with cavities and enamel deficiency. He is an older man, ready to retire.. . .. .. .....and he looked at me like I was from another planet. At least he had vaguely heard of the illness. He smiled politely and mentioned something about it being related to faulty digestion, and therefore not at all to oral health. <_<

So, you could have an interesting time with your tippling FIL. . . .. . . ......

Wow! Emmel, you is so clever--quoting yourselph within a post afore ye have even posted it :unsure::blink:

Dat's a durned clever trick!! I won't even attempt to emulate it :P

Joodee, so good to see you back. Did I miss an update and a Velcro pic?? How is the wee darlin'?? Has he become a California kool kat? My Main Coone kitteh could never have been a California cat--when it gets to be 80 degrees in the house she looks at me so piteously, and says "DO SOMETHING"!!! (I am wearing a fur coat, ya know!!) :lol: and flops down on the tile floor. So muggins turns on the air conditioning, FOR THE CAT!!

Well, I am certainly glad that all the things that needed rectifying have been dooly rectified by our chief rectifier :lol: and hope that no more rectification needs to occur because I for one do not like to be rectified on any account :o .

I am one of the fortunate few whose dentist has a celiac wife and children :) so needs no education. He does not, however, serve Margaritas! And just when ya needs em too, so you can dribble them out of the side of your mouth that's numb and down your chin and onto your clothes :rolleyes: I have to wait to do that with my capucchino to which I always treat meselph after dental punishment. :rolleyes:

Clay is happy because summer (as he knows it from CA) is phinally in phull bloom. All that crazy stuphhh that was coming up from Antarctica is finally staying down in the Southern Ocean where it belongs and all is good in our household for a while. Thank (the higher power) for no smog!!, one of the things I was happy to leave behind. Of course, driving down the road I have to keep the air on recirculate because Kiwis have a lluuvv aphair with diesels, and not the modern ones but the dirty stinky ones from days of yore--PeeYugh, makes me coff 'cos my lungs are shot from the CA smog :( There's just no winnin' wherever ya goes.

Emmel, you is playing tricks on me. Because your post which was included in the quote from Ghianknit is no longer in the quote. Wotinell is happening here? :huh:

Yeah, I love rectify too. Geo. Eliot: "You can neither straighten their noses, nor...rectify their dispositions" :P

Kitteh is now flopped on top level of her condo, three legs in the air, belly exposed to the full blast of the air con :lol: Not a lady, my kitteh!

Well........ .. . . Rectify is a funny word....... but I've got a funnier one for your FIL, Khearrihn: FRUCTIFY. 'Tis an intransitive verb, meaning to bear fruit, reproduce or make productive. As in, Jooooodie will be fructifying her property in California.

Kherrighn, try to use this word in your discourse with your FIL. "Now, here......have another margarita, Dad - - it greatly fructifies your wit".....

:lol:

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      @catnapt, Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract. They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows. Even beans have lectins. You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract. You may want to allow your digestive tract...

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg). Both are gluten free and free of other allergens. I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25". It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA. It's a powder form of Vitamin A. ...

      I wouldn't consider this lucky. I can NOT tolerate the symptoms. And I googled it and I was not even getting 10 grams of gluten per day and I was extremely ill. They'd have to put me in the hospital. I'm not kidding. I will have my first appt with a GI dr on March 4th I will not eat gluten again - at least not on purpose ...

      @catnapt,  Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract.  They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows.   Even beans have lectins.  You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract.   You may want to allow your digestive tract to rest for a week, then start on gluten in "normal" food, not in concentrated vital wheat gluten. This explains it well: Lectins, agglutinins, and their roles in autoimmune reactivities https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25599185/

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg).   Both are gluten free and free of other allergens.  I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25".  It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA.  It's a powder form of Vitamin A.  I was having trouble digesting fats at one point, but found I tolerated the powder form much better and have stuck with it since.   Tryptophan and Vitamin A help heal the intestines as well as improves skin health.  I get Dermatitis Herpetiformis and eczema flairs when my stomach is upset.  So I'm healing the outside as well as the inside.   I take one 1000 mg Tryptophan before bedtime.   With the Thiamine HCl, take 100 mg to start.  If you don't notice anything, three hours later take another. You can keep increasing your dose in this manner until you do notice improvement.  Remember not to take it in the evening so it won't keep you too energized to sleep. When I first started Thiamine HCl, taking 500 mg to 1000 mg to start was recommended.  If you've been thiamine insufficient for a while, you do notice a big difference.  It's like the start of a NASCAR race: Zoom, Zoom, turn it up!   This scared or made some people uncomfortable, but it's just your body beginning to function properly, like putting new spark plugs in your engine.  I took 1000 mg all at once without food.  It kicked in beautifully, but I got a tummy ache, so take with food.  I added in Thiamine TTFD and Benfotiamine weeks later and felt like I was Formula One racing.  So cool.  You may feel worse for a couple days as your body adjusts to having sufficient thiamine.  Feels sort of like you haven't cranked your engine for a while and it backfires and sputters, but it will settle down and start purring soon enough.  Adjust your dose to what feels right for you, increasing your dose as long as you feel improvement.  You can reach a plateau, so stay there for several days, then try bumping it up again.  If no more improvements happen, you can stay at the plateau amount and experiment with increasing your Thiamine TTFD.  It's like being your own lab rat.  LoL Yes, take one Benfotiamine at breakfast and one at lunch.  Take the B Complex at breakfast. Take the TTFD at breakfast and lunch as well.  I like to take the vitamins at the beginning of meals and the NeuroMag at the end of meals.   You may want to add in some zinc.  I take Thorne Zinc 30 mg at breakfast at the beginning of the meal.   Are you getting sufficient Omega Threes?  Our brains are made up mostly of fat.  Flaxseed oil supplements, sunflower seed oil supplements (or eat the seeds themselves) can improve that.  Cooking with extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil is also helpful.   @Wheatwacked likes phosphotidyl choline supplements for his Omega Threes.  He's also had dramatic health improvement by supplementing thiamine.  You're doing great!  Thank you for sharing your journey with us.  This path will smooth out.  Keep going!
