Funny when you put a night person with a morning person. He kept me up late and I got him up early...

I dressed for the occasion. Had a bow tie and everything. :P He seemed to appreciate it. Didn't manage to get any dinner though. ;)

Have a wonderful time, Lisa :D

One of my sons is spending the whole Christmas weekend with us and the other is coming Sunday so that day will be our family Christmas dinner. :D :D (his girlfriend has to work Christmas Eve and Christmas morning).

Last year we spent the day alone in TexAss--went to Starbucks and installed hardware on the kitchen cabinets--wearing sandals :lol:

Christmas factoid:

To deliver his gifts in one night, Santa would have to

make 822.6 visits per second, sleighing at 3,000 times

the speed of sound.

At that speed, Santa and his reindeer would burst into flame

instantaneously.

( please don't ask me to provide documentation to back this up B) )

Going to BE's house to be congratulated for finishing. :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r:

I'm not here...I'm

  • Writing cards
  • Wrapping presents
  • Continuing putting decorations up....
  • Shopping

You did NOT SEE me ph34r.gif

I sooooo have not done any Christmas cards. Was planning on it. Maybe I'll take them with me tonight to work on in the car. That'll take my eyes off the road while hub's driving over the pass..... Maybe I'll be sitting in the back seat. 10 to 1, I'll be the one driving <_<

I've gotten this damn cold that's going around here, but I swear I'm skiing tomorrow, snot bubbles and all!! :rolleyes:

I recommend starting with a shot of whiskey. Makes those uncomfortable clothes easier to put on (and quicker to come off :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r: )

That sounds like a great idea. A romantic trip to the yarn shop. Checking for the appropriate color and softness.

Will show that to J.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
    • trents
      Under the circumstances, your decision to have the testing done on day 14 sounds very reasonable. But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in hospitals or institutional care and I'm guessing your physician would be willing to grant you a diagnosis of gluten sensitivity (NCGS) even if your celiac testing comes up negative. Also, you need to be aware that oats (even gluten free oats) is a common cross reactor in the celiac community. Oat protein (avenin) is similar to gluten. You might want to look at some other gluten free hot  breakfast cereal alternatives.
