Are you sure that she actually needs to return to the outside pen? Sounds like she's making herself at home.

Can you litter-box train a chicken? :huh:

M & Hub are going to Northern Minnesota, crossing into Canada, to go canoeing & camping. No cell phone coverage for the 5 days. They might not see anyone else the whole time. :blink:

They'll have a great time. I hope!

I KNEW you were coming to help me move! Your only 4 hours away. Everything's almost packed up. You'll have to share the airbed with my In-laws though. :ph34r::lol:

On a good note the in-laws have decided to come the week AFTER we move instead. Yay! :D My husband was great. He called them and was VERY clear about where they would have to sleep if they got here the day before we move. He also told them we have plenty of help which was a big a factor in them changing their plans too. It turns out they feel bad because they have never helped us move before and they thought we were doing this alone. They really thought they were being helpful by coming during the move. They've never visited us while we lived in the city however and I think we made it clear that if they came AFTER the move we could relax, go to the beach have some fun, etc and it would be more like a vacation for them. The food situation is still a little stressful but I think I can deal now. MIL is still not understanding why she can't buy groceries when she gets here. I think a few more calls from hubby are going to be needed to straighten her out. Fortunately he is backing me on this 100% and is going to make sure there is no gluten or dairy brought in.

LOL! I actually have TWO places I trust to eat out: Red Robin and Five Guys. So we will take them to those places at least. Although the last time I went to Five Guys they couldn't do the lettuce wrapped burger because they only had shredded lettuce. They gave me a plain burger patty with shredded lettuce wrapped in foil. It was sort of a mess to eat, so we might skip that place. Although at least I didn't get cc'd. We also bought a grill so hopefully we can grill a lot of "normal" food.

Tomorrow is the big Cheese Day festival in my home town. Was planning to run in the 'Cheddar Challange' but I buggered up my foot yesterday and can barely walk today :rolleyes: We shall go to the parade and see countless log trucks, tractors, horses and pigs. The kids will fight in the streets over the label-less candy that they won't be able to eat and they we'll take them to get tatt'd up just like the rest of the folk in Toledo WA-at least theirs will be temporary...

I shall try to take a lot of pictures :P

Chickies are back in pen. Chicken litter swept out of house. Spent a while watching them yesterday to make sure Mulberry wasn't going to get picked on. It's quite a bit of fun. :) Read today on Backyard Chickens about putting a bug zapper in the pen so chickies have fresh barbecue in the morning. I think I'm gonna try this.

So my mom is in the hospital. She'll be fine. She had alot of fluid retention in her legs. She probably waited too long to tell the doc. This is a different hospital then she was in before. She is supposed to be on a low fat low sodium diet. In the previous hospital that would have meant they wouldn't give her a pack of salt. When I called to order her dinner, they told me she couldn't have some things because of her diet. All Hell will break loose when she realizes she can't have a hamburger for lunch tomorrow!

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      By catnapt · Posted

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
