Not wearing his cape? Not even his glasses?

Mods, correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think this forum allows those type of pics. No matter how skinny the nakey person might be. :ph34r:

A naked sooperman? Might be ok...

So....I went to the bank to ruin my ex hubby's Christmas (cashed his post-dated rent check that he'd probably forgotten about :P ) then stopped at the store to get food. Whilst wandering the aisles it suddenly and completely hit me that I have no obligations this weekend. No theater, no homework, no tests, personal statement, transcripts, ref letters (except one) all set up to go, no family dinners, no drinks with friends, nothing.

I can do

anything

I

want.

So for my Christmas eve dinner I'm having brownies with eggnog ice cream. What sort of wine d'ya think goes with that? :D

Not sure if I ever told y'all about the end of my ex saga.

He was renting the spare room in my house, which I thought was a great deal for someone since I leave at 5 or 6 am and get home at 7 or 8 and pretty much go straight to bed, but he didn't seem to like it. Anyway, Feb? March? of last year he told me he was putting his stuff in storage, going to visit his parents, and getting an apartment when he got back, and could he pay me the last of the rent later. I said sure, just post date a check for whenever. He wrote it for September, and I forgot about it til a week or so ago. Meanwhile, he comes back from his parents, doesn't speak to me at all (and he works in the store where I shop) and I find out from one of the tellers that he came back with a wife and child. So he's been married for months and never told anyone, just showed up with a family. :P

And seriously, if he had spoken even a word to me in the last six months I would have returned his check and told him to get something nice for the baby, but I'm really into that reap/sow thing.

Don't blame you at all.

I remember that you and the ex were roomies but not any of the move-out details.

Sounds like he's embarrassed or sumpin. I would make a point every time I saw him to smile big and say hello. But then, I'm evil like that.

:P

I did for a while, just because that's what I do and it took me a while to remember that he wasn't talking to me. Now he seems to make it a point to be on his way somewhere else when I go in the store. ;)

I think it's kinda funny, and I can't imagine having enough energy to remember to snub someone. I just do what's easiest, and that's smile and say hi.

      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.

      Inconclusive results

      By Wends · Posted

      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?

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By cristiana · Posted

      @Gigi2025  Thank you for your interesting post.  Some of what you say chimes with something my gastroenterologist tells me - that he has clients who travel to France and find the same as you  - they will eat normal wheat baguette there without issue, for example.  His theory was he thought it might be to do with the locally sourced wheat being different to our own in the UK? But I have to say my own experience has been quite different. I have been to France twice since my diagnosis, and have been quite ill due to what was then (pre-2019)  poor labelling and cross-contamination issues.  My TTG test following my last visit was elevated - 'proof of the pudding', as we say in the UK!  It was not just a case of eating something like, say, shellfish, that disagreed with me - gluten was clearly an issue. I've also been to Italy to visit family a couple of times since my diagnosis.  I did not want to take any chances so kept to my gluten free diet, but whilst there what I did notice is that coeliacs are very well catered for in Italy, and many brands with the same ingredients in the UK are clearly marked on the front of their packaging that they are 'senza glutine'.  In the UK, you would have to find that information in the small print - or it puts people off buying it, so I am told!  So it seems to me the Italians are very coeliac aware - in fact, all children are, I believe, screened for coeliac disease at the age of 6.  That must mean, I guess, that many Italian coeliacs are actively avoiding gluten because, presumably, if they don't, they will fall ill?

      Inconclusive results

      By deanna1ynne · Posted

      Thank you both very much. I’m pretty familiar with the various tests, and my older two girls with official dxs have even participated in research on other tests as well. I just felt overwhelmed and shocked that these recent results (which I found pretty dang conclusive after having scott clean labs just six months ago) would still be considered inconclusive. Doc said we could biopsy in another six weeks because my daughter was actually way more upset than I anticipated about the idea of eating it for years before doing another biopsy. It doesn’t hurt her, but she’s afraid of how it may be hurting her in ways she can’t feel. She’s currently eating mini wheats for breakfast, a sandwich with lunch, and a side of pasta along with every dinner, so I’m hoping we’re meeting that 10g benchmark mentioned in that second article!
