Hope she's doing well!

May I ask - what type of surgery was she having - nothing too serious I hope!?

Hysterectomy due to large fibroids.

Patti

Glad to hear all went well with the surgery & its over..... Now just relax & recoup . Don't worry about the dust bunnies, they need a home too...... Hope you recover fast but just don't tell Mark so that way he may actually start enjoying housework... or else he will hire a maid ......

Relax & rest.

hugs & blessings blowing in from Pa.......

Patti, so glad to hear that things went well... I'm still sending you lots of love, prayers, and hugs.

Does anyone know how long she'll be in the hospital? I don't know what the standard stay is for that procedure.

She'll be going home on Friday, unless they have reason to keep her longer.

Patti, I'll be praying for you as you have thought of me through my numerous ordeals. I know all will be well. You're just a thoughtful, friendly, and very helpful member as well as wonder friend. Can't wait to see you post again =)

Patti,

I hope they are taking good care of you in the hospital....and feeding you safe foods. :)

Glad to hear everything went well....we miss you already. Get well soon and yeah....try not to look at the "dirt". I still vote for hiring a maid....spoil yourself....who knows you may find you never want to clean again. ;)

Get lots of rest and feel better. We love you!! :wub:

Because Patti has so many food sensitivities, she made all of her own food and froze it, to have it ready for the hospital stay. She didn't trust the hospital, as it is hard to avoid all that she is currently avoiding. So in terms of food-she should be ok!!!!

I have to second Judy.

We miss you!

Can't wait until you're home in your own comfy bed. Hospital beds are the worse! Gotta give you another reason to want to get out of there. :)

Patti, remember to lie about on the couch and be as melodramtic as any sick man would be. Request bon bons and drinks, pillows and blanket. No cleaning anything, you are to lay about like the pampered princess.

Rusla, don't you think the hardest thing for Patti to do is 'sit still'? :blink:

some how I see her as a multi tasker who runs around doing 10 things at once with the vaccum belted to her waist and vaccuming as she runns around : :lol::lol::lol:

PATTI---DON'T YOU BE DOING THAT YOU HEAR US!!!!!! :ph34r:

hOPE YOU HOME AND FEELING OK.

HUGS AND LOVE

JUDY

      Thank you very much for your reply. I hadn't heard of celiac disease but began to notice a pattern of pain. I've been on the floor more than once with agonising pain but this was always put down to another abdominal problem consequently I've been on a roundabout of backwards and forwards with another consultant for many years. I originally questioned this diagnosis but was assured it was the reason for my pain. Many years later the consultant gave up and I had a new GP. I started to cut out certain food types ,reading packets then really started to cut out wheat and went lactose free. After a month I reintroduced these in one meal and ended screaming in agony the tearing and bloating pain. With this info and a swollen lymph node in my neck I went back to the GP.  I have a referral now . I have also found out that acidic food is causing the terrible pain . My thoughts are this is irritating any ulcers. I'm hoping that after a decade the outlook isn't all bad. My blood test came back with a high marker but I didn't catch what it was. My GP and I have agreed that I won't go back on wheat just for the test due to the pain , my swollen lymph node and blood test results.  Trying to remain calm for the referral and perhaps needed to be more forceful all those years ago but I'm not assertive and consultants can be overwhelming. Many thanks for your reply . Wishing you all the best.

      Wow! Fascinating info. Thanks so much! I really appreciate the guidance. @Spacepanther Over the years I have had rheumatologists do full lab work ups on me. They told me they had screened me for arthritis, lupus, and Lyme disease (all negative). In addition to joint pain and stiffness I had swelling in both knees that later moved to my elbow as well.  I also experience stiffness and pain in my neck and shoulders when it flares. I vomited fairly often growing up, but there wasn’t a real pattern to it and I didn’t know it wasn’t normal (thought people caught stomach viruses often).  I don’t usually have stomach symptoms immediately after eating gluten that I notice.  The only other joint condition I know of is fibromyalgia. Good luck! Hope you can get it figured out. I only assumed my joint symptoms were due to the celiac’s because it is under control for the most part on a gluten-free diet.  The rheumatologist also mentioned that some inflammatory/autoimmune diseases can be slow-moving and not detectable until they progress.

      @Spacepanther, I found these articles about the connection between Celiac and joint pain. Musculoskeletal Complications of Celiac Disease: A Case-Based Review https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10201087/ And   Intestinal microbiome composition and its relation to joint pain and inflammation https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6814863/ And The gut microbiome-joint connection: implications in osteoarthritis https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6903327/ Sounds like it's time to change the diet to change the microbiome.

      @Shireen32,  Take some deep breaths.  Your labs are fine!  Your tTg IgA is so low!  Well done!  Your endomysial IgA is fine.  There's not a level on the endomysial test.  It's just "yes or no" for if you have celiac disease.   No, it's too early to call it refractory. What are you eating?  Please tell us more than meat and veg. Do you consume dairy? Do you consume processed gluten free foods?   Are you taking any prescription medications, herbal supplements, vitamins and minerals?  
    • Spacepanther
      thank you knitty kitty I don't have a vitamin deficiency and I supplement omegas.  Are there other more mild symptoms that co-occur with your joint pain as well @Moodiefoodie? I am suspicious my own joint pain could be related to another autoimmune issue. I am wondering if it is Crohn's or something similar because I've continued to experience some issues despite having normal celiac antibody levels. What have you considered?
