Well, I don't think we're up to doing 100 posts over the weekend like we pulled off once before when Susie was kween--she went away fer the weekend and by the time she got back, someone else had been crowned :P

Classic! :lol:

Everbody must send Queen Rachelle a supply of vodka to get her through the next 98 pages. It may well preserve her.

Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother (mother of the current Elizabeth II), outlived her husband, George VI, by more than half a century. Reportedly, she was preserved by gin and tonic to the age of 101. I don't do tonic, so for me:

Gin and tonic, hold the tonic. :ph34r:

Gin and lemonade was a college favorite. You get the added value of vitamin c.

Obama is a Muslin, I saw it on the interwebz!

I dropped off a new encaustic abstract at the local gallery today for an auction they are doing to raise money. It's a kind of a very artist friendly gallery run by a great guy who also runs the local artist web forum. Also helped a little with installing the show. And helped a bit with a photographer friend closing down his studio after they lost the lease.

Then helped Muffin the kat-head with drinking a box of wine. I had to help a lot thou, she wasn't really into it.

Used to live in old town Alex. Where were you? We could have helped Muffin with the wine!

Here's the info I have to date from the biopsy:

Esophageal Hiatal Hernia

Scalloped Folds and absence of villi in the duodenal

Ulcer in the pre-pyloric region

I'll be taking Omeprazole once a day for a month and then have to have the procedure repeated. The entire process was less than an hour. My longest wait was for the lab technician to come an draw blood to check for H-pylori. The results from the biopsy will take about a week.

Will be offline for a few days. Death in family (not unexpected) but we're staying at a cousins' house tonight so we don't have a long ride to the funeral tomorrow. I imagine they'll be a lot of wine drinking and reminiscing. I'll be goosd and have just asip or two. I have all my food packed and ready to go in microwave containers. He was sweet and wanted to know what he could cook for me but I explained the disease is pretty complicated and in my stage I could get sick easily. I'll explain getting CC'd, etc to them tonight.

Thanks for asking and for all of your support!!!

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      Are Bobresmill gluten free oats ok for sensitive celiacs?
    • jenniber
      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining it often results in nutritional deficiencies such as anemia. NCGS does not damage the small bowel lining so your history of anemia may suggest you have celiac disease as opposed to NCGS. But either way, a gluten-free diet is in order. NCGS can cause bodily damage in other ways, particularly to neurological systems.
