Karen, blow you nose, and come out where ever you are. Hope that you are feeling better. We need you assistance here.

Did Karen finally find some??? Is Terry out of the doghouse???

Rebecca, we just have a bit of silliness ... it's become a tradition. We act like we're being really bad, but we just get silly.

I have been on a quest - Altoids have mysteriously disappeared from shelves in Canada. I have been searching - they are nowhere.

Oh well, doesn't matter - Terry's still in the doghouse - I think he should really think about winterizing it - he's gonna need to keep warm through the winter.

My husband sells insulated metal wall panels, let me know if you need some :lol::lol::lol:

Terry doesn't sound like he's trying to hard to get out of the doghouse ... maybe he knows about the Altoid shortage and figures it's not worth trying! :lol::lol:

I think there is an Altoids conspiracy in Canada. LOL

Karen -- I can send up an extra space heater and a 50' outdoor cord, if you need it. Give him some extra blankets, too. Sure you guys up there have sleeping bags that are rated for below zero. I also have a little electric/or/ battery-operated T.V. It gets crappy reception, but then again . . . . Maybe someone else has a little hot plate . . . he could heat up some Chef Boyardee Ravioli on it -- right in the can. He can keep drinks cold outside. I'm thinking that we have a whole package deal going on here for him. Naaaaaaaahhh.... he wouldn't have to help around the house -- he might like it too much!!! No, make him stay INDOORS in the INSIDE doghouse!!!

BTW: I love your new avatar. Did you design that cat?

Also -- for all you Canadians -- I'll be happy to be your U.S. Altoids hook-up! Walgreens has buy one get one free every other week -- the clerk knows me by name ;)

      Fiber Supplement

      Welcome to the forum, @Trish G! "Gluten free" does not necessarily equate to "no gluten". According to FDA standards it actually means that a food product contains no more than 20ppm of gluten. This is safe for most celiacs but would not be for those who are on the more sensitive end of the spectrum. So, it would depend on the individual celiac and their...

      Fiber Supplement

      I was taking Benefiber for my IBS-C before my celiac diagnosis. It does say Gluten Free but lists Wheat Dextrin on the label. I really dont like psyllium fiber, so is there anything else I can take or is the Benefiber really ok for someone with Celiac disease? Thanks!!!

      Basic metabolic panel results - more flags

      @Rejoicephd, I'm not a doctor, but I experienced severe thiamine deficiency. Your symptoms seem really familiar. Malabsorption is a real thing that happens with Celiac. A multivitamin is not going to prevent nor correct nutritional deficiencies. Doctors do not recognize nutritional deficiency symptoms. Gastrointestinal Beriberi is not recognized...

      Welcome to the forum, @Trish G! "Gluten free" does not necessarily equate to "no gluten". According to FDA standards it actually means that a food product contains no more than 20ppm of gluten. This is safe for most celiacs but would not be for those who are on the more sensitive end of the spectrum. So, it would depend on the individual celiac and their level of sensitivity to minor amounts of gluten. That's the long and nuanced answer. The short answer is that it is a product derived from wheat and so you can be certain it will contain some residual amounts of gluten. No gluten removal process is 100% effective. So, to be absolutely certain, stay away from it. Have you tried chia seeds? Very high in fiber and quickly turns into a gel when added to water. Make sure you get seeds that are gluten free if you decide to try it.

Now I’ve learned these other symptoms—that I have but attributed to other issues—could also be related to celiac disease:  fatigue joint pain canker sores numbness or tingling in hands or feet difficulty with coordination anemia headaches neutropenia I never dreamed in a million years she would consider celiac disease. It was a shock to me. It’s definitely not what I went to her for.

      @Rejoicephd, I'm not a doctor, but I experienced severe thiamine deficiency.  Your symptoms seem really familiar.  Malabsorption is a real thing that happens with Celiac.  A multivitamin is not going to prevent nor correct nutritional deficiencies.    Doctors do not recognize nutritional deficiency symptoms.  Gastrointestinal Beriberi is not recognized often.  Caused by thiamine deficiency, high dose thiamine supplements or IV administration with other vitamins, minerals and glucose under doctor's care is needed.   Thiamine deficiency is found in anemia.  Thiamine deficiency in the kidneys can result in electrolyte imbalances and cloudy urine.  Thiamine deficiency can cause high blood sugar which can cause cloudy urine.  Dehydration can cause cloudy urine.   I'm linking some PubMed articles.  You see if your symptoms match.  Discuss the possibility of Gastrointestinal Beriberi with one of your specialists soon!  Just to rule it out.  I'm very concerned.   I'm linking some PubMed articles.  You see if your symptoms match.   Thiamine, gastrointestinal beriberi and acetylcholine signaling https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12014454/#ref3 From Section 3: "In conclusion, TD limited to the gastrointestinal system may be an overlooked and underdiagnosed cause of the increasingly common gastrointestinal disorders encountered in modern medical settings. Left unattended, it may progress to wet or dry beriberi, most often observed as Wernicke encephalopathy.". . And... Refeeding Syndrome https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK564513/

      What are your symptoms? What has brought you to the point where you sought celiac disease testing?
