What's a blog?

It appears to me that it's like a journal or something where you can keep thoughts (journal maybe) and give info. about yourself and such and that others can check out your blog if they're interested. I've never been involved with a 'forum' or anything like that, so I don

Kathy, the forum is not a blog. Here you exchange information with other people. But you can start your own blog as well, as that feature is part of this site, too. Click on 'blogs' up above, and there will be a link where you can sign up to have your own blog. And yes, a blog is like a journal. There you can pretty much say anything you want (within board rules, of course) and can ramble on and on if you want to. People can read it if they want, and comment (if you allow that feature, you have choices).

So, the forum is interactive and what you say is supposed to either help others, or be informative, or you ask questions. On the other hand, the blog is a journal (but can be sort of interactive). It is primarily for your own benefit. It is nice to have both.

Hi, I signed up to do the blog but after going through all the controls of what can be done and so on and so forth, I can't seem to find where I go to actually write in it. I have gone over the pages again but I get to a page that says lmvrbaby blog but can not write in it. Any help would greatly be appreciated. :huh:

      Anyone understand genetic testing

      By JD-New to Celiac · Posted

      Although diagnosed with celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis, I was curious about the celiac genetics and had that testing done on my own. Unfortunately, the lab does not explain the results and any doctor I have asked said I would need to see someone specializing in genetics. I was hoping someone out there might help me understand. Here is what came back and although I understand the HLA DQ2 and HLA DQ8, I wasn't sure what the variants mean and why they repeat twice. Someone said it was a double marker meaning both of my parents gave me copies. I also read having this combination makes my celiac potentially much worse. HLA DQ2 - Positive | HLA DQ8 - Negative HLA Variants Detected: HLA DQA1*05 and again HLA DQA1*05 HLA DQB1*0201 and again HLA DQB1*0201

      What should tTG IgA be if Gluten Free?

      By JD-New to Celiac · Posted

      Understanding that normal is <15, I started off with 250+, then using the same lab it took two years to get to 11, the last test was 3. So, it jumped back up for some reason which is why I suspected gluten in my diet somewhere. I do not do dairy, eggs, oats, or soy. I am vegan and gluten free, and take numerous supplements with the help of this forum.

      I just want to post this new study here--it seems that for those who don't recover on a gluten-free diet may be in this group: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/scitranslmed.adp6812

      Additional Food Intolerances

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      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.

      To kiss or not to kiss: Can gluten pass through a smooch?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It does seem like brushing would be needed, and like anything else, a little daily exposure can lead to serious issues for celiacs.
