Yes, we'll see if he survives my cooking. I'm doing shrimp spring rolls, salmon/goat cheese pizzas, and grilled ahi on rice crackers. I was trying to figure out how to do something low dairy, low veggie that wasn't straight meat. I guess we'll see if this works. Maybe I'll try to work him up to stir fry or sumpin'.

I, of course, drink so rarely that even the lightest of drinks would put me under the table. :rolleyes::unsure:

I've recently tried to drink again .... all tries, no matter how little, it keeps me up all night. If I drink too much (like 2 1/2 glasses of wine), then I am not only awake, but feel bad. Not sure if one glass of wine is worth no sleep .....

We just had pancakes and bacon for dinner....

Good idea! Hubby just made me brunch!! Waffles and eggs!

Ahhh, Mother Nature in fall is pretty awesome as she beds down for the winter, but she is also pretty fantastic in spring when she dons her new finery and springs forth with daffodils and apple blossom, and all those new green shawls appear on the trees :rolleyes:

That's bee- u- ti- ful.

M went backpacking and took a bunch of Lara and Lara-like bars with him. I forgot to warn him not to eat all 6 in 1 24 hour period. :blink:

Hub & I had a nice steak, potato, asparagus and choc Carmel brownie dinner. Then watched " The Bucket List". Great movie but we were both teary at the end.

Sounds delish! :D

Our gas grill is at Matt's house since we are not allowed to have one here. We do steaks one night every time we go down there to get our steak phix :P

Gonna be a lovely day here today--sunny, 70 degrees, and the wind has phinally died down. It has been wicked the last couple of days since Thursday's nor'easter came through. Not a cloud in the sky.... :rolleyes:

Fergot breakfast so I took him out to our little local diner, and yes, he just left. I'm a little sleepy this morning afternoon, must have been the wine. :ph34r:

He liked the pizza and the ahi on rice crackers. Spring rolls had too much vegetation for him. Udi's pizza crusts are really good, if you haven't tried them yet.

hmmm . . . pretty good . . . I was only here a second. Now I'm back cuz I'm avoiding housework. After checking in here, I think I'll take a nap (unloading the dishwasher just plain wore me out). -_-

Went geocaching this weekend. Hubby has not been all that into it . .. some of these are pretty easy to find . . . but yesterday we spent an hour at one location and still didn't find it. Talked about it throughout the evening about theories on how/where it's hidden . . . got his interest up now.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease...

      Brown Rice Vinegar (organic) from Eden Foods is likely gluten free

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especia...

      nothing has changed

      Seven months can still be early in celiac healing, especially if you were mostly asymptomatic to begin with—symptoms like low iron, vitamin D deficiency, nail changes, and hair issues often take much longer to improve because the gut needs time to recover before absorption normalizes. A tTG-IgA of 69 is not “low” in terms of immune activity, and it can t...

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.

      Seven months can still be early in celiac healing, especially if you were mostly asymptomatic to begin with—symptoms like low iron, vitamin D deficiency, nail changes, and hair issues often take much longer to improve because the gut needs time to recover before absorption normalizes. A tTG-IgA of 69 is not “low” in terms of immune activity, and it can take 12–24 months (sometimes longer) for antibodies and the intestinal lining to fully heal, particularly in teens and young adults. Eating gluten again to “test” things isn’t recommended and won’t give you clear answers—it’s far more likely to cause harm than clarity. Weight not changing is also very common in celiac and doesn’t rule anything out. Please know that your frustration and sadness matter; this adjustment is hard, and feeling stuck can really affect mental health. You deserve support, and if you can, reaching out to a GI dietitian or mental health professional familiar with chronic illness could really help you through this phase. This study indicates that a majority of celiacs don't recover until 5 years after diagnosis and starting a gluten-free diet: Mucosal recovery and mortality in adults with celiac disease after treatment with a gluten-free diet However, it's also possible that what the study really shows is the difficulty in maintaining a 100% gluten-free diet. I suspect that if you looked closely at the diets of those who did not recover within 2 years might be that their diets were not 100% gluten-free. Perhaps they ate out more often, or didn't understand all of the hidden ingredients where gluten can hide. Either way, it shows how difficult recovery from celiac disease can be for most people.
