I heard from Rachelle earlier today. She asked me to "Please pass on my love to the psillie group and tell them that I'll be back soon!!"

She does not have internet access at home, but expects to solve that soon.

That's what happens when you move into a new place. The internet service doesn't follow along nicely. :(

Hmmm.. . ..*Members Only* Board, huh. . .. . ....SO unlike us loving, open and friendly celiacs o'er here with an open community.. . . . anybody can check out what we're saying -- and if one stumbles upon us here in this thread, he or she likely reads two posts, shakes his or her head, and skitters quickly back to the closed Crohnsville.... . . . :rolleyes:

Oh thanks! I keep forgetting to check in on her progress.

Being (happily) unemployed has a distinct mellowing effect on the brain.

Just stopping in with a quick hello full of love & positive energy. Slowly but surely I'm getting back to my own wacky ways. I've been cooking using my crockpot. Hard to accept that the easy things are no longer easy but I do feel blessed to be able to do these things at all. Simple things - like food shopping (but still not alone due to falling). Superman and I started watching Game of Thrones (Tony recomended it and we love it). Tony's taking Rob to a Springsteen concert over break.Tony didn't think I'd be able to handle a 6-7 hour car ride each way. Rob's taking me to see Joan Osbourne in April. BTW please forgive all the errors I haven't recovered from the two mini-strokes yet. I'll be damned if I let anything else keep me down.

Time to eat the yummy pot roast I made yesterday. It was the first day I drove I hit the same fence twice-no damage done(Rob drove the rest of that day).

Remember the warm weather is coming and the beach beckons (as does room in our house!

All my Love,

Loey

P.S. We'll be in NJ for a few days starting with July 7th. Rob's going to a concert (Roger Waters) with a high school friend and I'm sleeping at a close girlfriends house that night. We'll have a free day or two before or after that.

Welcome back Loey!

Those darn fences get in the way on purpose I think. They are very attention seeking inanimate objects. A couple of them have lured my cars in the past, so I know the way they are.

Congrats on the recovery, we are rotting for you1

I just got a new order delivered of their flax and sunflower seeds, and it turns out that they are no longer GFCO-certified. Instead, it just has a generic "Gluten Free" symbol on the package. I reached out to them to ask what protocols/standards/testing they have in place. The person that wrote back said that they are now certifying their gluten free status in-house, but that she couldn't answer my questions related to standards because the person with that info was on vacation. Not very impressed, especially since it still says on their website that they are GFCO-certified. Buyer beware!

But one thing I would like to say to you, no matter where you live, is you mention that your daughter is anxious.  I was always a bit of a nervous, anxious child but before my diagnosis in mid-life my anxiety levels were through the roof.   My anxiety got steadily better when I followed the gluten-free diet and vitamin and mineral deficiencies were addressed.  Anxiety is very common at diagnosis, you may well find that her anxiety will improve once your daughter follows a strict gluten-free diet.

      Welcome to the celic.com community @Dizzyma! I'm assuming you are in the U.K. since you speak of your daughter's celiac disease blood tests as "her bloods".  Has her physician officially diagnosed her has having celiac disease on the results of her blood tests alone? Normally, if the ttg-iga blood test results are positive, a follow-up endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining to check for damage would be ordered to confirm the results of "the bloods". However if the ttg-iga test score is 10x normal or greater, some physicians, particularly in the U.K., will dispense with the endoscopy/biopsy. If there is to be an endoscopy/biopsy, your daughter should not yet begin the gluten free diet as doing so would allow healing of the small bowel lining to commence which may result in a biopsy finding having results that conflict with the blood work. Do you know if an endoscopy/biopsy is planned? Celiac disease can have onset at any stage of life, from infancy to old age. It has a genetic base but the genes remain dormant until and unless triggered by some stress event. The stress event can be many things but it is often a viral infection. About 40% of the general population have the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. So, for most, the genes remain dormant.  Celiac disease is by nature an autoimmune disorder. That is to say, gluten ingestion triggers an immune response that causes the body to attack its own tissues. In this case, the attack happens in he lining of the small bowel, at least classically, though we now know there are other body systems that can sometimes be affected. So, for a person with celiac disease, when they ingest gluten, the body sends attacking cells to battle the gluten which causes inflammation as the gluten is being absorbed into the cells that make up the lining of the small bowel. This causes damage to the cells and over time, wears them down. This lining is composed of billions of tiny finger-like projections and which creates a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients from the food we eat. This area of the intestinal track is where all of our nutrition is absorbed. As these finger-like projections get worn down by the constant inflammation from continued gluten consumption before diagnosis (or after diagnosis in the case of those who are noncompliant) the efficiency of nutrient absorption from what we eat can be drastically reduced. This is why iron deficiency anemia and other nutrient deficiency related medical problems are so common in the celiac population. So, to answer your question about the wisdom of allowing your daughter to consume gluten on a limited basis to retain some tolerance to it, that would not be a sound approach because it would prevent healing of the lining of her small bowel. It would keep the fires of inflammation smoldering. The only wise course is strict adherence to a gluten free diet, once all tests to confirm celiac disease are complete.

      Hi all, I have so many questions and feel like google is giving me very different information. Hoping I may get some more definite answers here. ok, my daughter has been diagnosed as a coeliac as her bloods show anti TTG antibodies are over 128. We have started her  on a full gluten free diet. my concerns are that she wasn’t actually physically sick on her regular diet, she had tummy issues and skin sores. My fear is that she will build up a complete intolerance to gluten and become physically sick if she has gluten. Is there anything to be said for keeping a small bit of gluten in the diet to stop her from developing a total intolerance?  also, she would be an anxious type of person, is it possible that stress is the reason she has become coeliac? I read that diagnosis later in childhood could be following a sickness or stress. How can she have been fine for the first 10 years and then become coeliac? sorry, I’m just very confused and really want to do right by her. I know a coeliac and she has a terrible time after she gets gluttened so just want to make sure going down a total gluten free road is the right choice. thank you for any help or advise xx
