So the fair I was at this weekend had a forge right across the way from the

booth I was working in, and every morning and evening they would set off

their cannon (unloaded). It is INCREDIBLY loud. So last night at around 1am,

I dreamed it was about to go off, and woke up, sat bolt upright in bed with my

fingers in my ears. Yeah. I have GREAT dreams.

Well, at least it was only twice a day :unsure: I had a booth at a Christmas Faire one year where the neighboring booth played a very tinny recording of "Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock" over and over, ALL DAY, for two days!!! I thought I would go mad and that damned thing rang through my head right up to Christmas. Made me feel very un-Christmassy!!

People in New England are insane. It's official. How many people are

going to buy bread, milk, and eggs? What are you going to do when

the power goes out? Make French toast? Numbskulls.....

Only thing I don't like about the new format is it's too big from left to right,

you have to scroll back and forth to read. I think it would be better if the

default made the post boxes narrower. Everything else I'll get used to. :rolleyes:

All I want to do is let everyone I'm hoping they're safe & dry and I miss the old "reply" button so ... stay safe & dry. Will try to figure this out again tomorrw when DH isn't waiting to watch a movie with me (The Stand - Part 3)

Love, Hugs, & Positive Energy!!!

The "Reply" button at the bottom of each post is now labeled "Quote." It will prime the reply window.

The multiquote function has changed a bit. When at least one post is tagged as "MultiQuote" there will be a button in the lower right area of the screen to "Reply to x quoted post(s)." Click it to launch the reply window. Click "Clear" to the right to reset. Like before, you can MultiQuote tag a post in one topic, and post the reply in another.

The upgrade reset many notification settings. Look up in the right hand corner--you may have to reactivate the "follow" function. I did on the thread I follow. Then, go to your settings, check notification settings, and you may need to check email to reactivate it.

It would be a good idea for everyone to review your notification settings to make sure that they are still what you want them to be.

Yep, checked them. They were all good. I also completely unfollowed and refollowed. Still no emails.

Hmmmm . . . running out of ideas here. I gave it a try and it worked for me. Have you tried following any of the other threads? The Frankenstorm one gets a lot of action so you should be able to tell fairly quickly. Did you check your spam folder? I don't see how, but a computer might interpret this vital thread as . . . <gasp> . . . spam.

Why do you need notification anyway?? . . . Aren't you on 24/7 like the rest of us? . . . as your queen, I demand that kind of committment, you know.

Hiya Peepsters--I think we're as set as we'll ever be if/when the electricity goes out. Stocked up on water, other non-perishables, and the all important Popcorn Indiania Cinnamon Sugar Popcorn and Gluten Free Bakehouse stuff. B)

You wouldn't believe the people in the grocery store buying gallons of milk and eggs. Unless they have a generator (impossible to find, natch), how in the Sam Hill are they gonna keep that stuff? It was so phunny though--my shopping cart, normally full of produce, organic dairy, meats, etc was instead loaded with packaged, canned, bottled and snacky things. :lol:

HAPPY BELATED BIRFDAY, EM!!!!!!!!

:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

Hope it was phab!

      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.

      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...

      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.
