Amanda--

Gosh, be careful going home! We've had freezing rain now for several hours--it's 32 :angry: We are not supposed to get the snowfall, though.

Hi Nikki!

Last week we had 16c and all our snow melted...then the next morning we woke up to 10cm of snow. It was "wet" snow. Wet snow is much heavier and harder to shovel than regular snow. Tomorrow: 12c if we are lucky.

I lived for 10 years on Vancouver Island where we had tons of flowers in March/April. Right after I moved to Regina, I was bike riding with a friend in April and I said, "Where are all the flowers?" He said, "It's April!" "Yeah! Where are they?"

Turns out in Regina, you get about 2 weeks of flowers. Otherwise it's either too cold or too hot.

:) Exactly :)

However, I'm delighted to say that Tori and I were able to play outside today. I bought her a tee ball set so she learned how to swing a bat. She was actually quite good at it. We also had a picnic, in t-shirts. The weather man said in the news last night not to count on this past snow to be the last... He said we're still waiting on the onion snow... Ugh!

Mother nature does not want me to unpack the sandals and my pretty summer clothes does she?

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      Is there a digestive enzyme that helps build a healthier gut? I see people taking them but not sure what really works

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped".

      hi, i want to say thank you to you and @trents . after 2 phone calls to my GI, her office called me back to tell me that a blood test was “unnecessary” and that we should “follow the gold standard” and since my biopsy did not indicate celiac, to follow the no dairy and sucraid diet. i luckily have expendable income and made an appt for the labcorp blood t...

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong. yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped". Your Serum IGA 01 (aka, "total IGA") at 245 mg/dl is within normal range, indicating you are not IGA deficient. But I also think it would be wise to take your doctor's advice about the sucraid diet and avoiding dairy . . . at least until you experience healing and your gut has had a chance to heal, which can take around two years. After that, you can experiment with adding dairy back in and monitor symptoms. By the way, if you want the protein afforded by dairy but need to avoid casein, you can do so with whey protein powder. Whey is the other major protein in dairy.
