Well, after two days off, back to work in the morning. It will be a short day.

Christmas was a quiet day for just us mostly. We visited Jacquie's brother in the afternoon, and our nephew took five minutes out of playing with the Wii to open his gift and say thank you.

Dinner for two was roast beef with Yorkshire pudding, with gravy, wax beans and rice. All gluten-free, of course.

We had the family gathering on my side this evening, with my brothers, their wives, and my parents. Open Original Shared Link was the host this year. They had some gingerbread cookies by El Peto. Mmmm.

'Mornin', POeter! Been meaning to tell you that Jack finally got hold of Rob's latest (I think it's his most recent.....:unsure:... . . . .."Watch", I believe), and he loved it. Sophie halfhazardly picked it up in a sci-fi-is-SOOOO-uncool-and-totally-not-my-thing fashion and, despite herself, could not put it down. Jack wrote a message to Rob on his website about it and got a very nice, attentive answer.

Jack is wondering if he could come to Rob's house with you next Christmas, as he has too many other questions to feasibly be posting on the website. :rolleyes:

mmm Having a big bowl of bean soup for brekky (thanks K-wren!). Christmas from my bro and SIL was food based. Gigantic saute pan, oil mister, Barbara Kingsolver Open Original Shared Link, ginger scented lotion (may need that after the bowl of beans), and a box of gluten-free chips and crackers and asparagus tapenade.

I'm getting them a Open Original Shared Link

Sounds yummy. Not my mom's recipe - light colored dried beans, salt & pepper & ham. :blink:

We do a three-year rotation, so Rob is next up in 2013. This coming year is Alan's turn.

Watch is the latest, the second volume in the WWW trilogy. Wonder is due out in April, and Rob will be doing another Canadian tour for the launch, and he plans to include Ottawa.

or make them so heavy they can't fly at you. Hard to be attacked by pigeons with indigestion waddling at you.

The starlings stayed in the trees for about 15 very loud minutes. Suddenly, it went silent and they flew away. Maybe just waiting for a freshly washed car to go by.

Bah! humbug. It is STILL raining here too - all day, and cold and blowing. I am consoling myself with reading and cryptic crosswords, and eating too much - have now switched to a glass of wine since it's five o'clock

'Tis extraordinary, really... . . . . ....Ottawa is known for its cold, snow-laden winters, and yet this city has somehow miraculously been completely sideswiped by ALL of the horrific blizzard activity that has been pounding the surrounding areas. Got nuttin' here - - perhaps 12 cm of psnaough since the start of winter. :huh:

Must go out and buy a lottery ticket, methinks.. . . . ..

We know quite a few people whose holiday travel plans have been skippered. Patteigh! How are youse faring after the 51 cm??

Things are pretty much back to normal here as of this morning--the Governor's office called for a snow emergency yesterday. Mark went in to work yesterday without too much difficulty (although to be phair, our cars are in a parking garage so he didn't have to dig out like a lot of pholks did).

The winds were awful--finally dying down this morning.

It's supposed to be close to 50 by the week's end. :rolleyes:

You sure did send it here- we got 9 + inches. We initially had such heavy snow and winds that you couldn't drive. Then the winds were unbelievable through last night.

I'll be offline and in bed as I seem to have the flu. Does Celiac make you more susceptible to illnesses? I seem to just keep getting sick. Spent the past two days in bed already. We have all these movies we want to go see but right now getting the energy to shower is all I can muster. Clark is actually going to the supermarket with a mini shopping list.

I miss my psillies. Sending Non Contagious Hugs, smile.gif

Loey Lane

P.S. sorry if this was whiny. Clark's off for the whole week and so far I've slept through most of it. sad.gif

Hi Patti,

      Blood tests low iGA 4 years later digestive issues

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Mmoc! Please include the reference ranges for the IGA and the TTG tests in your next post if you have access to them. We cannot comment much otherwise as different labs use different reference ranges for these tests and also different units of measurement. There are no universal standards as of yet so the raw test numbers are not always helpful. Having said that, if your IGA (what we usually call "total IGA") is low, the TTG-IGA score will be skewed and cannot be trusted. Other kinds of tests for celiac disease would need to be run, particularly those in the IGG family of tests. Perhaps this will be helpful:

      Blood tests low iGA 4 years later digestive issues

      By Mmoc · Posted

      Hi there any advice welcomed. I have had 4 years of symptoms ranging from immune related anaphylactic symptom sudden onset food allergy to peppers/paprika/chilli/capsicum family derivatives. all these allergies fizzled out and following a food challenge test in hospital I reintroduced them a few months ago. Since then my digestive system is a mess. i have since noticed that 4 years ago when testing for iga allergies my iga level was .62 and my ttg was less than .1 (due to symptoms I was probably eating very plainly at that time). should I insist on being retested for celiac? I’ve since read two indicators for celiac include: sensitive to spicy foods when in flare up tooth enamel weakness and symmetrical discolouration patches on teeth which I have had since childhood on my two front teeth     thanks

      Headaches / Migraines and Hypoglycaemia

      By trents · Posted

      This article does not address migraines at all.  Yes, red wine and sulfites are often mentioned in connection with migraine triggers. With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably. So, I think most of my migraines are tied to fluctuations vascular tension and blood flow to the brain. That's why the sumatriptan works so well. It is a vaso constrictor.

      Headaches / Migraines and Hypoglycaemia

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Excessive dietary tyrosine can cause problems.  Everything in moderation.   Sulfites can also trigger migraines. Sulfites are found in fermented, pickled and aged foods, like cheese.  Sulfites cause a high histamine release.  High histamine levels are found in migraine.  Following a low histamine diet like the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet, helps immensely.    Sulfites and other migraine trigger foods can cause changes in the gut microbiome.  These bad bacteria can increase the incidence of migraines, increasing histamine and inflammation leading to increased gut permeability (leaky gut), SIBO, and higher systemic inflammation.   A Ketogenic diet can reduce the incidence of migraine.  A Paleo diet like the AIP diet, that restricts carbohydrates (like from starchy vegetables) becomes a ketogenic diet.  This diet also changes the microbiome, eliminating the bad bacteria and SIBO that cause an increase in histamine, inflammation and migraine.  Fewer bad bacteria reduces inflammation, lowers migraine frequency, and improves leaky gut. Since I started following the low histamine ketogenic AIP paleo diet, I rarely get migraine.  Yes, I do eat carbs occasionally now, rice or potato, but still no migraines.  Feed your body right, feed your intestinal bacteria right, you'll feel better.  Good intestinal bacteria actually make your mental health better, too.  I had to decide to change my diet drastically in order to feel better all the time, not just to satisfy my taste buds.  I chose to eat so I would feel better all the time.  I do like dark chocolate (a migraine trigger), but now I can indulge occasionally without a migraine after.   Microbiota alterations are related to migraine food triggers and inflammatory markers in chronic migraine patients with medication overuse headache https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11546420/

      Then we would need to cut out all meat and fish as they are richer sources of tyrosine than nuts and cheese. Something else about certain tyrosine rich foods must be the actual culprit.
