Thanks so much for tracking down this information Judy. I haven't been on the forum for awhile, so missed most of this.

Evie...get better soon! We want you at home safe, sound and eating healthy!

It's about 1:15 am so i'm going to bed.

I didn't hear from Evie's daughter Shirley today.

Will post if and when i hear anything.

We'll just keep the prayers going, ok.

Thanks to all of you for your continued posts.

I posted the emails in a thread and sent in a personal email through the forum this am so it would be easier for her.

I put a post on the OMG thread when I got home mon pm. Am now eating my own types (gluten free + rotation diet) foods which I could not do in hospital, so am feeling stronger a bit. I got so low down on energy it will take awhile to gain back weight and energy. I so appeciate all of you asking about me, really pleased to have made so many good friends on the forum since April...who have all been so helpful!!

Our 2nd daughter has been here all week to help me and hubby..we so appreciate that, her hubby will be down Sat. and she will go home. So glad she could get away from her work for so long but has been in daily touch/ her main boss and doing some work from my computer too. Our oldest and youngest dd were her most of time I was in hospital, went home when this DD came. we are so blessed and have so much to be thankful for. Nurse has been helpful and wil be back next wed., and therapist coming on Mon. Not sure I will need that but Dr. thinks so, will help me get stronger am sure.

Thank you so much Judy for hunting me down and conversing with Shirley!! she is having late Than ksgiving with her wisconsin son and family and her dd + her hubby who live near her saturday. We had a very good day here and more Sat. dd and hubby here. Hope all of you had a good day, on Thanksgiving and had lots to be thankful like we have. I am thankful to be back home and so many things, so glad hubby and i wil be able to continue here Ok, I pray for that. Take care all and love too. :) evie

Evie, I'm so glad to hear you had a nice holiday with your family. It sounds like you're slowly regaining your strength. I'm sure you can rest much better in your own bed!

Your daughters sound lovely--everyone is taking such good care of you. Take care, and thanks for letting us know how you're doing. We all worry :)

Take all the rest you need and get stronger so you can take your walks and enjoy your yard too.

I know you want to stay there with hubby and you will as it sounds like the nurses and family are helping you recoop..

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions to it, so different for everyone.

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗

      I agree there I've tryed this myself to prove I can't eat gluten or lactose and it sets me back for about a month till I have to go back to being very strict to settle again
