Yup, wine always makes everything better. And home alone for the moment...it's a lovely noise.

Car? Ah huh... :rolleyes: You just wanted to stay and hand out countless pieces of candy to adults who drag their children along. :huh:

Okay, we gotta raincheck.....next time I'll fly to Jersey and we'll drive from your house, Pattiegh. If your car acts up, well, I'm stranded at YOUR place. I'll have my backpack full of pinot.... B);)

Whatever. You know she was lightening up the backpack by 'sampling' the wine.

The advantages of not working . . . I'm going to go mid-afternoon and avoid all those people trying to vote on their way to work, at lunch, or leaving a tad early to vote on their way home for work. I'm targeting 2:00 pm. Four years ago, there was still a pretty darn good line at that time.

I'll be glad when this is over . . . I'm sick of the ads and I'm sick of the phone calls.

I hear ya, Jan-it. I plan to go mid morning for the same reason.

Wonder of wonders, there are actually a few boxes of Junior Mints left. :P

We had lots of kids last night--I was curious to see what would happen with it being postponed but it actually felt like Halloween.

Yes--the ads, and phone calls pertaining to the elections. Will not miss those at all!!

      You have three celiac disease specific antibody tests that are positive: Endomysial  Antibody IGA (aka, EMA), tTG-IGA, and tTG_IGG. Furthermore, your Immunoglobulin A at 55 is low, meaning you are IGA deficient. This one is not an antibody test for celaic disease per se but a measure of "total IGA" levels and if low (yours is low) it can suppress the individual antibody scores and even cause false negatives. So, yes, it definitely looks like you have celiac disease.   Do not yet begin a gluten free diet as your physician may refer you to a GI doc for an endoscopy/biopsy of the small bowel lining for confirmation of the antibody testing. This may help:

      Hi, I received my labs via email yesterday and have not heard back from my doctor yet. Can anyone tell me if these results indicate I have Celiac?      Endomysial Antibody IgAPositive  Ft-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA6  H0-3 (U/mL) - Negative 0 - 3 - Weak Positive 4 - 10 - Positive >10 - Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) has been identified as the endomysial antigen. Studies have demonstrated that endomysial IgA antibodies have over 99% specificity for gluten-sensitive enteropathy. FImmunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum55  L87-352 (mg/dL) Ft-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgG183  H0-5 (U/mL) - Negative 0 - 5 - Weak Positive 6 - 9 - Positive >9

      Mine is definitely triggered by inflammation and stress! I do also have arthritis in my spine, but the pain is more in my pelvic area. Im sure i have other food intolerances or other autoimmune isues but the more I focus on it and see doctor after doctor, it just gets worse.  Best thing is get of Gluten! (I also avoid lactose). Try to limit stress and anything that causes inflammation in your body.

      Good morning,   I got an email about replies to this post. Some of my doctors had blamed a slipped disc for the pain I had and that contributes, but after meeting with a gastroenterologist AGAIN and trying some lifestyle modifications, I found out I have IBS and can't tolerate corn or excessive fructose to any degree. Cutting out corn AFTER having cut out all gluten containing products was a real pain but I feel much better now!

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.
