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 ;)

      Do I have Celiac’s Disease?

      Welcome! It’s great that you’re getting answers through testing, even if it feels overwhelming right now. Your results show mostly normal ranges, but the weak positive in TTG IgG could suggest gluten sensitivity or early celiac—especially since you already react to gluten. Hashimoto’s and celiac/gluten issues often overlap, so it’s smart to investigate further. ...

      Recently diagnosed with Celic disease

      Hi Stephanie, I’m so sorry you’ve been going through such a frightening and overwhelming time. A celiac diagnosis on top of gastroparesis and gastritis is a lot to process, and your feelings are completely valid. It’s wonderful that you have such a strong support system—leaning on them (and your faith) will make this journey easier. The gluten-free transit...

      Decreasing tTiga?

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive...

      Celiac And Eggs

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The...

      Clancy’s Hint of Lime tortilla chips Aldi

      Technically speaking they should be gluten-free and below 20ppm, however, it is possible that a batch was somehow contaminated and is over that level. It's also possible that you are sensitive to another ingredient. This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:

      Do I have Celiac’s Disease?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome! It’s great that you’re getting answers through testing, even if it feels overwhelming right now. Your results show mostly normal ranges, but the weak positive in TTG IgG could suggest gluten sensitivity or early celiac—especially since you already react to gluten. Hashimoto’s and celiac/gluten issues often overlap, so it’s smart to investigate further. Hopefully your doctor will clarify next steps (maybe an endoscopy or gluten-free trial?). Either way, listening to your body is key. Hang in there, and keep advocating for yourself—you’re already on the right track! The next step is likely an endoscopy to confirm celiac disease, and for that, similar to the blood panel for celiac disease, you need to be eating lots daily in the weeks leading up to it. Let us know what your doc says.

It’s wonderful that you have such a strong support system—leaning on them (and your faith) will make this journey easier. The gluten-free transition can feel daunting at first, but it does get better with time, and many people find relief once their body heals. You’re not alone in this! Sending you so much strength as you navigate these changes.

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.
