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......

I know! I said that to my husband--he just shook his head and said "I don't think so".

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.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By rei.b · Posted

      So far 3 months in - worsening symptoms. I have had the worst constipation in my life and I am primarily eating naturally gluten-free foods like potatoes, eggs, salad with homemade dressing, corn tortillas, etc. I hate gluten-free bread and pasta so I don't eat it. Occasionally I eat gluten-free almond flour crackers. As stated in the post, I don't have any vitamin deficiency. I was already tested.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Talk to your  Talk to your provider about testing for vitamin and mineral deficiency.  celiac disease causes malabsorption and eventually malnutrition.  Especially vitamin D. Having the gallbladder removed seems to be a common step on the way to a Celiac Disease Diagnosis,  Gallbladder is a sympton of deficient Choline. Eggs and red meat are the primary source..Choline makes up a majority of the bile salts.  The bile gets thick, doesn't get enough into intestine to digest fats well.  Can eventually back up into gallbladder, cause gallstones.  Without bile, bowel movements can become hard. Try to avoid all processed foods while you are healing, The gluten-free foods are not fortified with vitamins and use various ingredients to mimic fat that bothers many Celiacs.  Choose vegatables with low omega 6.  Optimum omega 6 to omega 3 ratio is less than 3:1.  Wheat flour is 22:1.  Grass fed milk is 1:1.   Commercial Dairies milk is 5:1.  They feed wheat, rye and barley Gluten as part of the food mix.

      Your DGP-G is also high. The thing to do now would be to trial the gluten-free diet for a few months to see if there is improvement in symptoms.
