I Love My Daughter's Teacher!

When I dropped off my daughter at school this morning, I had to go into the cafeteria to drop off her menu selections for the week to supplement the lunches I send from home, and I stopped in to say hi to her teacher... Well, she said "oh just the person I wanted to talk to!" She had a empty bag of Bob's Red Mill gluten-free Chocolate Chip Cookie mix and said that on Friday one of the other girls mom is bringing cookies for everyone, so rather than ask me to make some for her, she picked up the mix at Kroger and made them herself and put them in the freezer until Friday. (She's also trying the gluten-free diet herself to see if it helps her symptoms and she has a grown son with multiple food allergies including wheat).

Because she has a grown son with allergies, I know I can trust her to be aware of cc issues and everything, she even checked to make sure the vanilla she used was gluten-free. And come Friday when they have their party, she said that she and my daughter will have their gluten-free cookies together!

How amazing is this???!!!!

I hope she enjoys the cookies too! I'm just so thrilled that her teacher makes the extra effort to make her feel included and safe. She's already been awesome about letting me know when they had won a pizza party so that I could bring in a hot fresh gluten-free pizza for my daughter as well, and she always asks before planning an event with food. And we are only a few months into the school year!

That's great, Nini! I love Carleigh's teacher too. They are going to make a friendship soup in the crockpot at the end of the month. She wants everyone to bring a cup of veggies or something to contribute. She emailed me today for input on how to keep her safe.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By rei.b · Posted

      So far 3 months in - worsening symptoms. I have had the worst constipation in my life and I am primarily eating naturally gluten-free foods like potatoes, eggs, salad with homemade dressing, corn tortillas, etc. I hate gluten-free bread and pasta so I don't eat it. Occasionally I eat gluten-free almond flour crackers. As stated in the post, I don't have any vitamin deficiency. I was already tested.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Talk to your  Talk to your provider about testing for vitamin and mineral deficiency.  celiac disease causes malabsorption and eventually malnutrition.  Especially vitamin D. Having the gallbladder removed seems to be a common step on the way to a Celiac Disease Diagnosis,  Gallbladder is a sympton of deficient Choline. Eggs and red meat are the primary source..Choline makes up a majority of the bile salts.  The bile gets thick, doesn't get enough into intestine to digest fats well.  Can eventually back up into gallbladder, cause gallstones.  Without bile, bowel movements can become hard. Try to avoid all processed foods while you are healing, The gluten-free foods are not fortified with vitamins and use various ingredients to mimic fat that bothers many Celiacs.  Choose vegatables with low omega 6.  Optimum omega 6 to omega 3 ratio is less than 3:1.  Wheat flour is 22:1.  Grass fed milk is 1:1.   Commercial Dairies milk is 5:1.  They feed wheat, rye and barley Gluten as part of the food mix.

      Your DGP-G is also high. The thing to do now would be to trial the gluten-free diet for a few months to see if there is improvement in symptoms.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Roses8721! How long were you off gluten before getting the celiac blood testing done? The testing is not valid after having been gluten free for a significant period of time. Many of your symptoms align with celiac disease.
