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:

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

      Celiac flare years after diagnosis

      The sensitivity of people with coeliac disease varies greatly between individuals. The generally accepted as safe limit for most people is 10 milligrams per day. This equates to a piece of bread the size of a small pea. Some people report that they are more sensitive than this, but others can very occasionally eat a normal gluten containing meal without reacting...

      @Jmartes71, Been here. It's okay. You're not imagining things, but there's no bugs or parasites in your skin. The cats are not infecting you with anything. That's a hyperkeratotic plug that builds up in a hair follicle which does go deep and is attached by the hair sheath that looks stringy. It's a type of thing seen commonly in Dermatitis...

      4.5 years into diagnosis, eating gluten-free and still struggling: would love support, tips, & stories

      I am currently 28 and was diagnosed when I was 19-20. I am strictly gluten free and dairy free, grain free etc. I just had to say that I had a horrible reaction to quinoa when I tried it as an alternative. It was certified gluten-free quinoa noodles. I couldn't even finish the bowl of food before I started to feel sick. I had trouble breathing and threw...

      How Celiac Disease Impacts Bone Health: What You Need to Know

      4.5 years ago I had 2 vertebrae fractures. After several months, 4 doctors, and numerous tests, it was determined that the root cause of my fractures was long term undiagnosed celiac. My DEXA tests 4 years ago showed significant osteoporosis; -3.3 T-score on my left hip. I had to wait 5 months before going gluten free. After wearing a back brace for ...

      The sensitivity of people with coeliac disease varies greatly between individuals. The generally accepted as safe limit for most people is 10 milligrams per day. This equates to a piece of bread the size of a small pea. Some people report that they are more sensitive than this, but others can very occasionally eat a normal gluten containing meal without reacting. I don't think that touching or throwing bread around would lead to you ingesting enough to cause a reaction. There are case reports of farmers with coeliac disease reacting to the dust from gluten-containing animal feed but they were inhaling large amounts of dust over a long period of time in barns. Perhaps you episodes are caused by a reaction to something other than gluten? Have you had your antibody levels checked to see whether you are still being exposed to gluten?

      @Jmartes71, Been here.  It's okay.  You're not imagining things, but there's no bugs or parasites in your skin.  The cats are not infecting you with anything.  That's a hyperkeratotic plug that builds up in a hair follicle which does go deep and is attached by the hair sheath that looks stringy.  It's a type of thing seen commonly in Dermatitis Herpetiformis.   Niacin B 3, in the form Nicotinic Acid (active form that causes flushing) or in the form Niacinamide will help immensely with clearing this up.  Take 100 mg three times a day, and Tryptophan (another form of Niacin) to help you sleep and heal your intestines at night.   Kidney stones can result when the body doesn't have sufficient Thiamine B 1.   Are you taking a B Complex supplement?  The eight B vitamins are water soluble.  Many people with Celiac Disease benefit by taking a B Complex to boost absorption.   The cloves are great because they can reduce inflammation, but your body needs the Bs and extra Niacinamide as well.  Benfotiamine, a form of Thiamine B 1, is also needed in higher doses to heal the intestines.  If you get your intestines calmed down, your skin will calm down, too.  Benfotiamine has anticancer potential in higher doses.

      Hello everyone! I am very glad to be a part of this group. I want to share a bit about my celiac journey and hear from you as well. I was diagnosed when I was around 19-20 with a confirmed blood test and biopsy. I am now 28 and since my diagnosis, I have been strictly gluten-free. I have discovered over the years many new intolerances to foods, not to mention bad joint pain and skin issues, which led me to going on the carnivore diet. I don't eat dairy, sugar, or grains, except for rice/rice flour crackers, which seems to be the only substitute I can tolerate. I feel pretty good most of the time, but every so often I have what I consider to be a "celiac flare", which always follows the same pattern: I get a mild stomachache that gets progressively worse, followed by nausea, vomiting, and severe abdominal pain that lasts hours. What is strange to me is that I didn't have as severe symptoms as I do now before my celiac diagnosis, when I still actively eating gluten, even though I felt crummy and had synotoms. Has anyone else experienced symptoms like this? I am so careful with what I eat and I never eat out. As I was looking around on the forum here, I found a post where someone asked about airborne gluten and subsequent reactions. My mom likes to feed the birds bread, and I was helping her toss bread around. Could even touching gluten or breathing it in result in a reaction like what I had? I wash my hands and keep everything separated in the kitchen, of course. It is just very frustrating, because I am so careful and when I have these flares, the pain is debilitating. Any advice or experiences you have had would be greatly appreciated. Thank you and God bless.

It was certified gluten-free quinoa noodles. I couldn't even finish the bowl of food before I started to feel sick. I had trouble breathing and threw up. It was one of the most severe reactions I have ever had, so I have never eaten it again. Since cutting out gluten, I feel that over the years I have developed new intolerances to foods. I eventually went on the carnivore diet which helped me a lot. I no longer have joint pain and my skin is better. I would recommend trying carnivore, because even foods that you think aren't affecting you could be, especially sugar, natural or otherwise.

      How much gluten do I need to eat prior to testing?

      By trents · Posted

      Thanks for the update, Ben. If you will be having an endoscopy/biopsy to confirm the results of the blood testing - and this would be the normal protocol - you will still need to continue the gluten challenge until that is done.
