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 :)

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
    • trents
      Under the circumstances, your decision to have the testing done on day 14 sounds very reasonable. But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in hospitals or institutional care and I'm guessing your physician would be willing to grant you a diagnosis of gluten sensitivity (NCGS) even if your celiac testing comes up negative. Also, you need to be aware that oats (even gluten free oats) is a common cross reactor in the celiac community. Oat protein (avenin) is similar to gluten. You might want to look at some other gluten free hot  breakfast cereal alternatives.
