This is what I decided to do--took cubed sweet potatoes, drizzled wif olive oil and honey, sprinkled wif garlic powder and salt. Sounded good, and much easier than making a cheese sauce. ;)

Actually, in this case we have been. It has impacted my availability as a mod, so they needed to know.

Here's a brief version of the story. Please do NOT make any comments about this on the book. Keep it here among the sillies.

Jacquie has had discomfort for some time due to large fibroids. She had surgery to remove them, along with everything else "female" from the cervix upward. The larger fibroid was about 10cm in diameter. There were some difficulties, and she had an additonal procedure Thursday. She is likely going to be kept until at least Monday.

The recovery process involves restricted activity including no driving for four weeks. So I will be busy between running our business without her help, and taking extra time to look after her.

Gads, I leave dh home for 4 hours and he decides to clean house. GREAT idea since his baby tubes were sliced and diced yesterday :rolleyes: Guess who was writhing on the sofa wif an orange-sized hematoma in his left groin....pseriously, do I have to babysit everyone?!?!?! :blink:

I met some other mom's at the zoo this morning and took and extra 4 year old boy wif me (jackson), as well as my 8 year old. When the 2 boys got in the car, the immediately started dishing about Ava, who is in their class (and would be at the zoo), see Jackson and Ava are quite the 'item' and Max wants her to himself (since his set of twins moved away :huh:) , so he and Jackson were trying to work out a deal. Initially Jackson was willing to sell her off for 50 quarters and by the end of the car ride, she was down to 5 dollars in cash and 21 quarters and Jackson would no longer be building the house he promised her.... I was laughing so hard. Poor Ava :lol: :lol: And this was poor Madeleine's phace thru the whole morning :blink:

So cute about Skeeter and her new ear holes

Madeleine found out today I used to have a tongue ring.....Hard to explain that one. I think what came out of my mouth was "uh, uh, uh, I WAS OVER 18!!!" :huh::lol:

MY LIVING WILL

Last night, my family and I were sitting in the living room and I said to them, 'I never want to live in a vegetative state, dependent on some machine, drinking fluids from a bottle. If that ever happens, just pull the plug.'

They got up, unplugged the Computer, and threw out my wine.

They are Soooo on my sh!t list ...

:lol: :lol: Phabulous!!

If you take the "C" out of Click to Enlarge" you get lick to enlarge

      Inconclusive results

      By deanna1ynne · Posted

      And thank you for your encouragement. I am glad that her body is doing a good job fighting it. I also just want clarity for her moving forwards. She was only 6 for the last round of testing and she's 10 now, so I'm also hoping that makes a difference. It was weird during her last round of testing though, because right before her biopsy, we'd upped her gluten intake by giving her biscuits made from straight up vital wheat gluten, and her labs actually normalized slightly (lower ttg and her ema went negative). Bodies just do weird things sometimes! lol

      Inconclusive results

      By deanna1ynne · Posted

      The first negative biopsy in 2021 just said "no pathological change" for all the samples, and the second one in 2022 said "Duodenal mucosa with mild reactive change (focal foveolar metaplasia) and preserved villous architecture." So I think Marsh score 0 in both cases, though it's not actually written in the pathology reports. I'm really hoping to get a clear positive result this time, just for her sake.

      Blood results

      By Wends · Posted

      Hopefully the biopsy gives a conclusive and correct diagnosis for your daughter. Im in the UK and have been in the situation a few years ago of trying to rule celiac in or out after inconclusive results. Many symptoms pointing to it including the classic symptoms and weight loss and folate and iron deficiency. You have to play a waiting game. I also had the label of IBS and likely food allergy. Genetic test showed low risk for celiac but not no risk. It sounds like the Gastroenterologist is on it and hopefully will diagnose what it is correctly. Food hypersensitivity (allergy) can also cause similar symptoms and inflammation as well as mimicking IBS. Milk / dairy and wheat (cereal grains) being the biggest culprits. The “oesophagitis” and “gastritis” you mentioned can be caused by another gastrointestinal disorder called “eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders”. These are named depending on which part of the gastrointestinal tract is affected. For example eosinophilic oesophagitis, eosinophilic gastritis, eosinophilic gastroenteritis, and more rare eosinophilic colitis. They are antigen (allergen) driven. When the blood test measuring anti-ttg antibodies is positive in absence of a positive ema test - which is more specific to celiac, this can also suggest food hypersensitivity (allergy). Usually delayed type allergy similar to celiac but not autoimmune if that makes sense. In this case the ttg antibodies are transient. Which happens. I’ve first hand experience. For info, evidence of villous atrophy too can be caused by food hypersensitivity. Not just by celiac disease. In Egid disorders the six food elimination diet, under a dietitian and gastroenterologist care, is the dietary protocol to figure out the culprit or culprits. Sometimes only two food elimination diet is used at first. The number one culprit is milk protein / dairy. Followed by wheat, eggs, soy, fish and seafood, and nuts. Most are only reactive to one food group or two. Most are only reactive to milk. Hope this is a helpful reply.

      Wow, the system is crazy isn’t it? Maybe switch Doctors if you can. It’s surprising from what you’ve written it seems obvious it’s celiac disease. The “potential” diagnosis means celiac is developing and it basically just hasn’t done enough gut damage to be captured on the biopsy yet, and meet that “criteria” to satisfy the current system! Given the overwhelming evidence already - family history, positive ttg and ema. And your own experience and intuition which counts far more. And the labs being reproduced after gluten elimination and reintroduction- elimination and reintroduction diet is the gold standard too. Shame on the Doc and the system. What was the Marsh score? I’m guessing not 0 if it’s potential celiac. Meaning the autoimmune process has been triggered and started. Your daughter is obviously very healthy and her immune system is putting up a good fight. It can take years for the gut damage to build to a point where there’s overt symptoms and then a conclusive diagnosis, hence why many celiacs receive diagnosis later in life. You can prevent it. See the positive and the gift in that. Hopefully the gluten challenge confirms it, but if it doesn’t maybe get a second opinion?
