My Happy Tree!!!!!!!

Ridgewalker Contributor

Parties last last night were fabulous! So fabulous I was pretty much useless today. :rolleyes:

My best friend is the cheesecake queen!!! Her cheesecakes are requested for all major events by friends and family. Her stuff is actually better than Cheesecake Factory.

The one she made for me was a huge gluten-free chocolate swirl cheesecake, with crumbled peanut butter cups and homemade caramel sauce on top. The crust was made of crushed flourless peanut butter cookies (made with chunky peanut butter.) With completely honesty, I think it's the best dessert I've ever had in my life!!!

As soon as she puts it up on her blog, I'll post the link!

Good morning, Sillies!

Well,The Ripper's in the paper! Unfortunately, the online copy does not have the BIG photograph that accompanies it - - Jack's li'l smiling face. But I'm SO happy that they published this...it will hopefully grab the attention of many parents who have kids with similar unresolved neurological issues.

That cake just sounds too good, Sarah. I dare not make such a thing.....

This is so awesome! It's so well written -- I really think this will resonate with people who see those symptoms in themselves or their children. You must be so proud of your little guy! It kind of gave me chills reading it, realizing how similar Jack and Colin's symptoms were. I'm so happy that they're both living the gluten-free life and I hope that Colin will eventually see the kind of vast improvement that Jack has.

This says it all: "I kind of became a new kid -- me, only better." :D

That was so fabulous it made me sniffle.

Emily, The Ripper's essay is awesome! What an incredible kid. At that age, to make that sort of self assessment and decision... it's pretty freaking impressive!

Is your hubby permanently gluten-free, then? I remember he went gluten-free during the phart charting hey day, right?

Love the emotiTree!!!

Mmmmmmmm cheesecake!

My oh my Em, your heart must simply gush seeing his own testimony in print for all to see.

Jack will be absolutely jumpin' up and down to hear all of your reactions...As he was getting his backpack on and heading out the door this morning with the section of the paper to take to school, I said, "We gotta call Grandma as soon as you get home to ask her if she's seen it". His face lit up and he said, "No, first you've gotta get into Sillyville and show all of them!! What will they say? Will they be surprised?" I laughed, and he added as he was heading out the door, "I bet they'll be proud of me". :lol::lol:

Couldn't care less about Grandma's reaction, but you guys, well...........

Yes, I must go post it in the publications section.... :)

Is your hubby permanently gluten-free, then? I remember he went gluten-free during the phart charting hey day, right?

Yep, he's been gluten-free for about four months. Unparalleled pharting was his only noticeable symptom, and that's pretty well gone. He intentionally glutened himself a couple of weeks ago to see how he'd feel, as he still remains somewhat sceptical (strongly positive Enterolab results, negative blood work and biopsy), and had no symptoms. So that makes him even more sceptical....but he's staying on it. :)

I coming! I coming! Agreed- on hubby but I think everyone needs a wife. I would prefer my "wife" to be a gay man who could cook, decorate and give me fashion advice!!!!!!!!!! Now, i do know a gay man who could be my "wife" but he always asks me fashion advice and to plan his parties!

Well done article!!

Glad he is bringing attention to the neurological effects of gluten. It's not always about the poop (or absence of poop) :lol:

You must be bursting with pride--what a great kid :)

I'm with ya, Bev. I have often thought that I could really use a gay man.... :huh::lol:

Wow! I have never heard of For your Consideration. I have seen Best in Show and A Mighty Wind about twenty times apiece, laughing more hysterically each time. Must look for this new one....

Uh-oh!! Only 12(?) posts from a new Queen????

W/ all the royal confusion stemming of hijacked mullets, I'm recusing myself again. As last clearcut undisputed royalty, it'd seem like back-to-back.

Gotta give someone else a chance to rule!!!!

For some reason the board won't let me quote :angry:

Emily, I just love your tree-hugging picture! :D

Bev--I agree completely on the gay man as a wife. I've often said the same thing :lol:

Ripper--We are so incredibly proud of you!!! I kinda think of you as "our Ripper" :)

Wow Sarah, that cheesecake sounds drool-worthy. I'm so glad you got out and had some fun--you deserved it :D Big birthday week for you--congrats and hope it's a great day!

Hi Phaugaughm--Good to see you oot and aboot :D (a nod to our Canadian buddies) ;)

Where's Susie? Did I miss somefin? :unsure:

Probably more I wanted to say, but that's all I can remember right now. Feeling a bit less dizzy today :)

      Hello, I just wanted to share with the frustration of skin issues and seeing dermatologist and medications not working for years, I did my own healing experiment. As of last week I have been taking a drop internally under the tongue of Vetiver and putting on topically on sores Yellow/Pom.I am seeing a extreme difference at a rapid time.Im also noticing my nails a little harder. Ive always been into natural properties because I feel its safer for the body.I know short time, but really seeing a difference. I also feel the the trapped gases that causes bloating helps break down as well.Curious if any body else can benefit from and has tried. Products is made by Doterra by Dr Hill

      We have a category of articles on this topic if you really want to dive into it: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/miscellaneous-information-on-celiac-disease/gluten-free-diet-celiac-disease-amp-codex-alimentarius-wheat-starch/

      I agree with @trents, and the rash you described, especially its location and resistance to steroids, sounds highly characteristic of dermatitis herpetiformis, which is the skin manifestation of celiac disease. The severe and prolonged reaction you're describing five days after a small exposure is, while extreme, not unheard of for those with a high sensitivity; the systemic inflammatory response can absolutely last for several days or even weeks, explaining why you still don't feel right. Your plan to avoid a formal gluten challenge is completely understandable given the severity of your reactions, and many choose the same path for their well-being. While experiences with GliadinX (they are a sponsor here) are mixed, some people do report a reduction in the severity of their symptoms when taken with accidental gluten, though it is crucial to remember it is not a cure or a license to eat gluten and its effectiveness can vary from person to person. For now, the absolute best advice is to continue being hyper-vigilant about cross-contamination—buffets are notoriously high-risk, even with good intentions. Connecting with a gastroenterologist and a dermatologist who specialize in celiac disease is essential for navigating diagnosis and management moving forward. Wishing you a swift recovery from this last exposure. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:

      So just to be cautious, there is a big difference between cured, and responding to their medication. I assume you mean that your daughter responded well while taking KAN-101 during the trial, but the drug would not cure celiac disease, but may manage it while you are taking it. Let me know if I got this right.
    • trents
      Welcome to the forum, @Godfather! "Gluten-free" is not the same as zero gluten. The FDA standard for allowing the food industry to us the gluten-free label on a product is that it cannot exceed 20 ppm of gluten. That is safe for most celiacs but not for the subset of celiacs/gltuen sensitive people who are super sensitive. "Gluten-free" wheat starch products have been processed in such a way to remove enough of the protein gluten to comply with the FDA regulation but usually do retain some gluten and we usually get reports from some people on this forum who fall in the more sensitive range that such products cause them to react. Hope this helps. So, you may just have to experiment for yourself.
