Welcome back, Patti! I just realized that you're posting again. I hope your recovery is going well and that you're getting back on your feet. Although I hope you're taking it easy and letting your hubby wait on you.

Thank you Liz :)

It's good to be back and doing something "normal" again :lol: There's so much I'm not supposed to be doing right now--and I'm beginning to get a little bored.

Everything is going well--saw the doctor on Tuesday and she said that everything was looking fine. Now, it's just a matter of taking the time out to heal. Each day it gets a bit better.

How are you? Are you fully recovered from your surgery?

Oh Yeah! You are so casual about having some major heinous surgery, and you slip back into the role of gentle moderator so easily that I totally forgot how empty it felt without you!

Welcome back!

Glad to hear you're getting bored - that's a good sign. I hope you can find enough "stuff" to do to keep you occupied.

I'm doing well, thanks. I'm still a little tender, but am back to all normal activities. We got 6 inches of snow Wednesday night so we're off school. My van doesn't handle well in the snow, so yesterday the kids and I walked 2-1/2 miles to my in-laws' to get our sleds (stored there since we don't get much snow) and then walked a bit more to get to my SIL's house to go sledding with the cousins. I don't know how many times I walked back up the 1/8 mile hill dragging that sled behind me, but I realized last night that I'm completely back to normal. (My kids pointed out that I was the only mom actually sledding. I couldn't help myself - I have an old Yankee Clipper sled that still goes really fast and it brought back such good memories.)

:lol: I know, can you believe it? I would be on here, posting away in whining, dramatic rants about my surgery and pain :ph34r: And she just goes about everything, stoically and quietly, lovely sort of regal moderator that she is!!

Very glad to have you back, Patti. :)

I was just wondering how you were doing ? I started to hijack a thread and decided not too :P

How long has it been since your surgery ? Are you up yet ? Back to vacuuming ? :blink:

It took me forever to get over my gall bladder surgery. They took it out thinking it might help my stomach pains. DUH !! I was still eating gluten so the surgery basically just made me even more miserable ...

Aren't you glad you are gluten free ??? Marcia

Hi Patti, it's much too soon for you to be vacuuming :o You should still be regulated to the computer and the couch :lol:

How's hubby doing with his new house keeping duties anyway?

Hi Marcia and Shirley :D

I'm recovering a little bit each day. I can sit comfortably in a chair now, so I'm on the forum more.

No, I haven't vaccumed! The doctor said 4 weeks--my son has been taking care of that. Between him and my husband, I'm in very good hands ;)

I am glad I'm gluten-free! At least that's one thing I don't have to worry about :lol:

Too bad that the "trigger" can't work in reverse......

You can tell I haven't been on here much if I totally missed this thread for 1 week.

Glad you're able to be on more and feeling pretty good. :)

Good for you for letting hubby and son take care of things. You'll be back in the saddle in no time.

HUGS.

      Gluten-Free Diet Linked to Reduced Inflammation and Improved Outcomes in Multiple Sclerosis (+Video)

      I worried at one point on my journey whether I had MS, having many of the symptoms myself. However, my symptoms improved dramatically with high dose thiamine hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and Thiamine TTFD. Thiamine deficiency symptoms overlap with MS symptoms, including changes on brain MRIs. Thiamine deficiency affected my eyes (light sensitivity),...

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias!

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing...

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      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 y...

Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure.

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      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.
