Just wanted to start a thread where everyone could post good thoughts, prayers, whatever you wish for Patti as she is having major surgery.

And when she comes back she needs a thread to remind her that yes, even though we all know her husband doesn't vacumn as well as her, she can't do it! WE LOVE YOU PATTI!

Patti - - - praying for a speedy recovery, and try to enjoy your down time (I mean, let the pills take you to your magic place!) :)

We look forward to seeing you and your sweet kitty upon your return.

Thoughts and prayers have been with Patti since late last night. I probably went to bed around when she was getting up since I'm on the west coast.

We love you Patti. Get the rest you need, don't worry about the house. It won't fall apart.

Take just enough meds to keep the pain down but still be at the point where you will know if you are overdoing it. That ought to keep you from the danger of vacuuming as well as lifting too much.

Just heard that all went well. No details but she's in recovery!

Patti- I can keep you company in your convalescence as i am down with some bogus virus! They think it's a relapse of mono. UGH! No vacumning for me either. Kurt and mark can exchange housekeeping secrets :ph34r:

Get lots of rest!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We love you, B

      I did ... But aren't we going to be vitamin deficienct if we are not eating due to being sick ?? If the food we eat is gluten free and we have other sensitivities , how do we get out of the cycle??  Thank you

      I assume that you already know that genetic testing for celiac disease cannot be used to confirm a celiac diagnosis. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. It can be used to rule out celiac disease with a high degree of confidence, however, in the case where the genetic testing is negative for the genes. Until and unless you are actually diagnosed with celiac disease I would not raise this as an issue with family. However, if you are diagnosed with celiac disease through blood antibody testing and/or endoscopy with positive biopsy I would suggest you encourage first degree relatives to also purse testing because there is a significant chance (somewhere betwee 10% and almost 50%, depending on which studies you reference) that they will also have or will develop active celiac disease. Often, there are symptoms are absent or very minor until damage to the small bowel lining or other body systems becomes significant so be prepared that they may blow you off. We call this "silent celiac disease".

      If you were off gluten for two months that would have been long enough to invalidate the celiac blood antibody testing. Many people make the same mistake. They experiment with the gluten free diet before seeking formal testing. Once you remove gluten from the diet the antibodies stop being produced and those that are already in circulation begin to be removed and often drop below detectable levels. To pursue valid testing for celiac disease you would need to resume gluten consumption equivalent to the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread daily for at least two weeks, preferably longer. These are the most recent guidelines for the "gluten challenge". Without formal testing there is no way to distinguish between celiac disease and gluten sensitivity since their symptoms overlap. However, celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the small bowel lining, not true of gluten sensitivity. There is no test available for gluten sensitivity so celiac disease must first be ruled out. By the way, elevated liver enzymes was what led to my celiac diagnosis almost 25 years ago.
    • trents
      Then it does not seem to me that a gluten-related disorder is at the heart of your problems, unless that is, you have refractory celiac disease. But you did not answer my question about how long you had been eating gluten free before you had the blood antibody test for celiac disease done.
