Dude! Even my Safeway carries it!! OK, I live in snob-city, but still, I think it should be becoming more common.

today my math teacher abbreviated 'want to find' as WTF. All the little kids laughed.

I live in an area where people don't think twice about spending $7 for a pint of ice cream. So where is it?????

I left a note for the manager at one store. Will report back when the quarry has been sighted and apprehended.

How to make lemonade:

Take an accidentally-glutened-by-a-friend state, with headaches, body aches, insomnia, bad mood;

Combine with a trip over the hill for grocery shopping, running errands for Dh (returning something he bought by mistrake); and shopping for layers of clothing for upcoming cold morns in too-warm changing rooms;

Add inability to read Dh's handwriting on shopping list or comprehend what he was trying to say: "5mgs chillis x3" (purchase some greenred chillis on sale)

Combine with misreading his request for 3 cans of Staggs chilli which were not purchased :( .

Scrutinize pantry and find lectins all over the place - cans of tomatoes, kidney beans, canellini which need to be consumed (but not by me)

Get out slow cooker

Brown ground beef, onions, celery and place in slow cooker

Add two cans of kidney beans, 1 can cannellini beans, 1 can tomato puree, 1 can Italian tomatoes pureed, two chopped red chillis :D , chilli spice and various assorted other things

Cook on low for 8 hours. Thicken with cornstarch.

Voila! lemonade! :lol: Enough lemonade to quench (or inspire B) ) a great thirst.

Holy crap.. . . . .....was just sitting here posting, and happened to glance over at the big framed picture I have on the wall beside me.

      thank you RMJ! That is very helpful advice. Good to know we aren’t crazy if we don’t do the endoscopy. We are going to try the gluten free and see how symptoms and levels improve.    thank you Wheatwacked (love the username lol) that is also reassuring. Thankfully she has an amazing and experienced pediatrician. And yesss I forgot to mention the poop! She has the weirdest poop issues.    How long did it take y'all to start seeing improvement in symptoms? 
    • Wheatwacked
      My son was diagnosed when he was weaned in 1976 after several endoscopies.  Given your two year old's symptoms and your family history and your pediatrition advocating for the dx, I would agree.  Whether an endoscopy is positive or negative is irrelevant.   That may happen even with endoscopy.  Pick your doctors with that in mind. In the end you save the potential trauma of the endoscopy for your baby.   Mine also had really nasty poop.  His doctor started him on Nutramigen Infant because at the time it was the only product that was hypo allergenic and had complete nutrition. The improvement was immediate.
    • RMJ
      So her tissue transglutaminase antibody is almost 4x the upper end of the normal range - likely a real result. The other things you can do besides an endoscopy would be: 1.  Genetic testing.  Unfortunately a large proportion of the population has genes permissive for celiac disease, but only a small proportion of those with the genes have it. With family history it is likely she has the genes. 2.  Try a gluten free diet and see if the symptoms go away AND the antibody levels return to normal. (This is what I would do). Endoscopies aren’t always accurate in patients as young as your daughter. Unfortunately, without an endoscopy, some doctor later in her life may question whether she really has celiac disease or not, and you’ll need to be a fierce mama bear to defend the diagnosis! Be sure you have a good written record of her current pediatrician’s diagnosis. Doing a gluten challenge for an endoscopy later in life could cause a very uncomfortable level of symptoms.   Having yourself, your husband and your son tested would be a great idea.  
    • Samanthaeileen1
      here are the lab ranges.  Normal ranges for tissue transglutaminase are: <15.0 Antibody not detected > or = 15.0 Antibody detected normal for endomysial antibody is < 1.5. So she is barely positive but still positive.

      I have been diagnosed with coeliacs disease today after endoscopy, bloods and CT scan. I have also been diagnosed with Mesenteric Panniculitis today. Both of which I believe are autoimmune diseases. I have been told I will need a dexa scan and a repeat CT scan in 6 months. I had not even heard of Mesenteric Panniculitis till today. I don’t know much about it? Has anyone else got both of these.
