Hi all from SAlt Lake City! Glad to see some medical issues are resolving.

Just got back from an official Irish dinner at PF Changs. Boy did M eat! Skiing makes the boys hungry and PF Changs is one of his Favs.

We stayed the first few days north of SLC in a beautiful condo. Then, yesterday, we moved down to SLC to ski places closer to The city. We were to stay in a Chase Suites near the university. It is a few blocks from PF Changs and across the street from a gluten-free pizza place. It has a full kitchen - oven, stove burners, microwave & fridge. Got there and it had been sold 3 weeks ago and was being remodeled. The Chase company had not told any of the people staying there!

A guy who just happened to be looking for places to put some specialized construction workers for a few weeks, came in to the Chase to find out if they had rooms. He heard Hub's plight and told him he had just checked at the Homestead Suites and they had rooms. So we are now staying there. It has 2 burners, a microwave & a fridge. It doesn't really work well for cooking but it's OK for breakfast & to keep my lunch stuff. Last night we had Snack Dinner - cheese, apples, crackers.

Had a good day skiing.

Great day of skiing!

Going to try Litza's Pizza. Was recommended by the gluten Free store in Layton. A whole store full of only gluten-free foods!

We also tried Taggarts Grill in Morgan at their suggestion. Yum! gluten-free buns that they could use for anyone's sandwich. M said I should get a big box shipped! They also had a peacock that sat right outside out window and a lovely calico cat that greets everyone. They have at least 5 bakeries in this area. Not all have stores but supply other stores and restaurants.

HEEEYYY, Royal Psubjects!

Well.. . . . ....I spent last night in the eleventh century, completely swept up in jousting, falconry, hand-to-hand sword and shield combat.. .. ....'twas so... .....positievely Medieval.

It really was quite a show. I explained upon entering just who I was. If you can imagine, NONE of the subjects there were apprised of the Royal Arrival and Walkabout of Queen Emily the 3000th of Psillyville.

They seemed to not even know who I was. :huh:

Incredible.

However, they had a rather impressive crown ready to place on my head, and here I am in my av, ready to reign over this clueless, rather barbaric Toronto rabble... . ...

Technical question: Can we still write something under our avs? I could not find the option to do so under "edit my profile". . . .....

Hmmmph. Some monarch.... . . ...canna find my way around me own profile.... <_<

'Tis so. You must have at least 501 posts to be able to do this.

The moon is full and bright. Where is Canadian Karen when we need her? And, no, the smart Alec answer "Bowmanville" isn't gonna cut it.

Do Canadian Karens howl at the moon? Turn into a werewolf? Perform sacred Wiccan fertility rituals? Run naked thru Bowmanville?

Hmmmm... Sounds like fun. Maybe Kansan Karens should do those things.

I don't use Shockwave, although I have heard of it. Sometimes stuff just happens. You might want to make sure you have the latest version. Open Original Shared Link

Less than six hours until spring arrives. Shroomie--you get autumn instead. :o

Tis a magnificent goblet! Fit for a queen.

Back from Spring Break. Cooper spent the week with Grandma & Poppa. He is now a spoiled dog. My dad walked him 3-5 times a day!

      Self Diagnosed avoiding gluten 7 months later (Not tested due to eating gluten to test) update and question on soy

      I know I haven't been tested but self diagnosed that by avoiding gluten the past 7 months I feel so much better. I have followed how to eat and avoid gluten and have been good about hidden gluten in products, how to prep gluten-free and flours to use to bake gluten-free and have been very successful. It has been a learning curve but once you get the hang...

      Feel like I’m starting over

      Check your multivitamin to see if it contains Thiamine Mononitrate, which is a "shelf-stable" form of thiamine that doesn't break down with exposure to light, heat, and time sitting on a shelf waiting to be sold. Our bodies have difficulty absorbing and utilizing it. Only 30% is absorbed and less can be utilized. There's some question as to how well multivitamins...

      @Scatterbrain, What supplements are you taking? I agree that the problem may be nutritional deficiencies. It's worth talking to a dietician or nutritionist about. Did you get a Marsh score at your diagnosis? Was your tTg IgA level very high? These can indicate more intestinal damage and poorer absorption of nutrients. Are you eating...

      Has anyone had terrible TMJ/ Jaw Pain from undiagnosed Celiac?

      Vitamin and mineral deficiencies can make TMJ worse. Vitamins like B12 , Thiamine B1, and Pyridoxine B6 help relieve pain. Half of the patients in one study were deficient in these three vitamins in one study below. Malabsorption of vitamins and minerals is common in celiac disease. It's important to eat healthy nutrient dense diets like the Autoimmune...

I have followed how to eat and avoid gluten and have been good about hidden gluten in products, how to prep gluten-free and flours to use to bake gluten-free and have been very successful. It has been a learning curve but once you get the hang of it and more aware you realize how many places are gluten-free and contamination free practices etc. One thing I have read is how soy is like gluten. How would one know if soy affects you? I have eaten gluten free hershey reeses that say gluten free etc some other snacks say gluten free but contain soy and I dont get sick or soy yogurt no issues. Is there adifference in soys?

      Check your multivitamin to see if it contains Thiamine Mononitrate, which is a "shelf-stable" form of thiamine that doesn't break down with exposure to light, heat, and time sitting on a shelf waiting to be sold.  Our bodies have difficulty absorbing and utilizing it.  Only 30% is absorbed and less can be utilized.   There's some question as to how well multivitamins dissolve in the digestive tract.  You can test this at home.  YouTube has instructional videos.   Talk to your nutritionist about adding a B Complex.  The B vitamins are water soluble, so any excess is easily excreted if not needed.  Consider adding additional Thiamine in the forms Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) or thiamine hydrochloride.   Thiamine is needed to help control electrolytes.  Without sufficient thiamine, the kidneys loose electrolytes easily resulting in low sodium and chloride.   We need extra thiamine when we're emotionally stressed, physically ill, and when we exercise regularly, are an athlete, or do physical labor outdoors, and in hot weather.  Your return to activities and athletics may have depleted your thiamine and other B vitamins to a point symptoms are appearing.   The deficiency symptoms of B vitamins overlap, and can be pretty vague, or easily written off as due to something else like being tired after a busy day.  The symptoms you listed are the same as early B vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially Thiamine.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms can appear in as little as three days.  I recognize the symptoms as those I had when I was deficient.  It can get much worse. "My symptoms are as follows: Dizziness, lightheaded, headaches (mostly sinus), jaw/neck pain, severe tinnitus, joint stiffness, fatigue, irregular heart rate, post exercise muscle fatigue and soreness, brain fog, insomnia.  Generally feeling unwell." I took a B 50 Complex twice a day and extra thiamine in the forms Benfotiamine and TTFD.  I currently take the Ex Plus supplement used in this study which shows B vitamins, especially Thiamine B 1, Riboflavin B2, Pyridoxine B 6, and B12 Cobalamine are very helpful.   A functional evaluation of anti-fatigue and exercise performance improvement following vitamin B complex supplementation in healthy humans, a randomized double-blind trial https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10542023/

Malabsorption of vitamins and minerals is common in celiac disease.  It's important to eat healthy nutrient dense diets like the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet that has similarities to the Mediterranean diet mentioned in one of the studies.   Is there a link between diet and painful temporomandibular disorders?
