I just got my new(to me anyway) car!! It's the first car I've ever had to make payments on. So it's exciting and nervewracking all at the same time. It's a 2004 ford focus. I had to get an antenna ball today cause I kept "losing" my car. Today at wal-mart there were 4 (the same color) in the parking lot!

We're so happy to have a car that we're not CONSTANTLY taking to the mechanic! Yay! Anyway, I'm just too excited. Yes. It was so stressful (our car broke sort of 1/2 way thru our move), and I'm glad it's over!

A new home a new car!!! Wow, there are some exciting changes for you these days :):) Enjoy! Someone where I worked used to have the same exact Hyundai Sante Fe I did, same color and all. It even had the Cape May sticker with the lighthouse on the tailgate...ek!!

Congrats on the new car! We just bought my wife a new Honda Fit. It's such a fun little car, I have to keep coming up with excuses to drive it!

I can't wait to get a car, and not have to get the bus everywhere [including the nightmarish four bus hop to get to college]. First though, I need to learn to drive...

Congrats on getting a new car though!

So much has changed for us! We wanted to take it a little slower, move, settle in, then get a newer car, etc. But nooooo, our car has to break as we're moving. Just a few small wrenches in our plans. We had HUGE problems with our washer and dryer (well actually the installation people just DIDN'T install it properly) so I ended up doing it myself. Anyway, it all worked out, but not without insane amounts of stress. Now that that's over, we are just relaxing and enjoying it all!

      Hey Julie! I was in a similar situation before my biopsy and my gastro said Tylenol was fine. Just avoid ibuprofen or anything anti-inflammatory until you're cleared. Hope your surgery goes smoothly!

      I don't see how cornstarch could alter the test results. Where did you read that?

      Medication

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      For pain relief I take a combination of Thiamine (Benfotiamine), Pyridoxine B 6, and Cobalamine B12.  The combination of these three vitamins has analgesic effects.  I have back pain and this really works.  The B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted.   Hope this helps!  Keep us posted on your results!

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Xravith. I experienced similar symptoms before my diagnosis.  Mine were due to the loss of vitamins and minerals, essential nutrients we must get from our food.  With Celiac Disease, the intestinal lining, made up of thousands of villi, gets damaged and cannot absorb essential vitamins and minerals, especially the eight B vitamins.  The loss of Thiamine B 1 can cause muscle loss, inability to gain weight, edema (swelling), fatigue, migraines and palpitations.  Low thiamine can cause Gastrointestinal Beriberi with symptoms of nausea, abdominal pain and bloating.   Thiamine is only stored for a couple of weeks, so if you don't absorb enough from food daily, as the thiamine deficiency worsens physical symptoms gradually worsen.  If you're eating lots of carbs (like gluten containing foods usually do), you need more thiamine to process them (called high calorie malnutrition).  Thiamine works with all the other B vitamins, so if you're low in one, you're probably getting low in the others, too, and minerals like iron, magnesium, zinc, and calcium, as well as Vitamin D..  Talk to your doctor about checking for nutritional deficiencies.  Most doctors rarely recognize vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially in thiamine. Get a DNA test to see if you carry any Celiac genes.  If you do not have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably IBS.  If you do have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably Celiac.  I was misdiagnosed with IBS for years before my Celiac diagnosis.   Keep us posted on your progress. P. S. Deficiency in thiamine can cause false negatives on antibody tests, as can diabetes and anemia.
