Living in the year 2006

1. You accidentally enter your password on the

microwave.

2. You haven't played Solitaire with real cards in

years. (guilty)

3. You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach

your family of 3.

4. You e-mail the person who works at the desk

next to you. (guilty again)

5. Your reason for not staying in touch with

friends and family is that they don't have e-mail

addresses.

6. You pull up in your own driveway and use

your cell phone to see if anyone is home to help

you carry in the groceries. (really guilty)

7. Every commercial on television has a web site

at the bottom of the screen.

8. Leaving the house without your cell phone,

which you didn't have the first 20 or 30 (or 60)

years of your life, is now a cause for panic and

you turn around to go and get it.

10. You get up in the morning and go on line

before getting your coffee.

11. You start tilting your head sideways to smile. : )

12. You know exactly to whom you are going to

send a copy of this message.

13. You are too busy to notice there was no #9 on

this list.

14. You actually scrolled back up to check that

there wasn't a #9 on this list. :lol:

OK-that's too funny! Contrary to my kids belief, dinosaurs did not roam the earth when I was a kid! (Although I think my dad killed the last one for Thanksgiving dinner when I was about 9-haha) :P

And my son thought when I was young Adam and Eve were there.

That means I must be younger than you, by a smidging.

Guilty of going on computer before work.

Have always tiltled my head sideways, so I was ready for that phone!

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      By trents · Posted

      Cristiana, that sounds like a great approach and I will be looking forward to the results. I am in the same boat as you. I don't experience overt symptoms with minor, cross contamination level exposures so I sometimes will indulge in those "processed on equipment that also processes wheat . . ." or items that don't specifically claim to be gluten free but do not list gluten containing grains in their ingredient list. But I always wonder if I am still experiencing sub acute inflammatory reactions. I haven't had any celiac antibody blood work done since my diagnosis almost 25 years ago so I don't really have any data to go by.

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      By cristiana · Posted

      I've been reflecting on this further. The lowest TTG I've ever managed was 4.5 (normal lab reading under 10).  Since then it has gone up to 10.   I am not happy with that.  I can only explain this by the fact that I am eating out more these days and that's where I'm being 'glutened', but such small amounts that I only occasionally react. I know some of it is also to do with eating products labelled 'may contain gluten' by mistake - which in the UK means it probably does! It stands to reason that as I am a coeliac any trace of gluten will cause a response in the gut.  My villi are healed and look healthy, but those lymphocytes are present because of the occasional trace amounts of gluten sneaking into my diet.   I am going to try not to eat out now until my next blood test in the autumn and read labels properly to avoid the may contain gluten products, and will then report back to see if it has helped!

      Low iron and vitamin d

      By lizzie42 · Posted

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer.  Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks on supplements she is cheerful, sleeping better and looks better. The red rimmed eyes and dark circles are much better.   AND her Ttg was a 3!!!!!! So, we are crushing the gluten-free diet which is great. But WHY are her iron and vit d low if she's not getting any gluten????  She's on 30mg of iron per day and also a multivitamin and vit d supplement (per her dr). That helped her feel better quickly. But will she need supplements her whole life?? Or is there some other reason she's not absorbing iron? We eat very healthy with minimal processed food. Beef maybe 1x per week but plenty of other protein including eggs daily.  She also says her tummy hurts every single morning. That was before the iron (do not likely a side effect). Is that common with celiac?
