Well yeah, I can certainly see why!

Have a great time! We adopted one kid from Russia, so we were in far-eastern Europe. It's very different from here! We took the train there, so we got to see some of the countryside ... but it was January so there was snow.

Take DEET so that you don't get bitten by any ticks. ;) Lyme is on every continent except Antarctica!

Have a wonderful time!

Thanks for the reminder, I had forgotten the insect repellent!

Thanks for the cheery wishes everyone. I'll try to post now and then when I stop to send email to friends and family. And I'll definitely give everyone the low-down on food - since that seems to be the major travel question posted!

AAAAGGGGHHHH will this week never end!!!!!!!

Hi all!

I'm in Slovenia, having gone through Croatia and Bosnia to get here. Tonight I head for Budapest.

Food has been no problem. I found rice cakes in Croatia and the hostel here in Ljubljana lists which foods on it's menu are gluten-free. Flour is used far less often as a filler so I've had no problems with CC. In Italy I bought gluten-free cookies to bring with me and have been munching through those as I go. The hardest time was the plane ride over here, lots of time in airports, but I had breakfast bars and nut bars for that.

24 more days to go!

It sounds WONDERFUL!!!! I hope you're having such a good time. Glad that food hasn't been an issue so far. Pretty amazing that they use less flour in those countries as filler than the US -- bet they have a lot less Celiac, too!!

Keep us posted -- I am so happy for you! Take care . . . . .

Love,

Lynne

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.

      Is it gluten?

      @par18, no, Scott's use of the term "false negative" is intentional and appropriate. The "total IGA" test is not a test used to diagnose celiac disease per se. The IGA immune spectrum response encompasses more than just celiac disease. So, "total IGA" refers to the whole pie, not just the celiac response part of it. But if the whole pie is deficient, the...

      This may be the problem. Every time you eat gluten it is like giving a booster shot to your immune system, telling it to react and produce antibodies again.

The IGA immune spectrum response encompasses more than just celiac disease. So, "total IGA" refers to the whole pie, not just the celiac response part of it. But if the whole pie is deficient, the spectrum of components making it up will likely be also, including the celiac disease response spectrum. In other words, IGA deficiency may produce a tTG-IGA score that is negative that might have been positive had there not been IGA deficiency. So, the tTG-IGA negative score may be "false", i.e, inaccurate, aka, not to be trusted.
