How Awesome Is My Hubby?

I went out to eat tonight, to a local place where my hubby knows the "chef", he brought him out to the table and sat him down and we explained to him about my eating issues...... OMG that was the best meal I have had in ages!

Rib eye steak, baked tater and salad, and now a couple hours later, still no signs of trouble! I figure one key was its a "off night" not many people were there so he could pay attention and not feel rushed when making my meal.... yes it took a few minutes longer I am hoping that was because he washed the grill and got out new utensils.....

If I continue to handle this meal well through the night I will be calling the owner in the morning and praising him to the rooftops! Not to mention be going out to eat more often on Wed nights!

By the way this is my first truly great expirience eating out, maybe it won't work for everyone but I hope it gives you all hope if nothing else (knocking on wood while I type as well in case I need it later)

Shall we all say a prayer, I want so badly to be able to eat out again, I hate cooking all the time!

That is awesome. It is nice to hear that someone would take the time to do all that. It seems we go out to eat once a week. I end up ordering a baked potato. One restaurant actually served sour cream in a little packet, I read the ingredients and it contained gluten. Didn't expect that in sour cream. I'm glad that you had such a great experience. I was hoping I'd get to go to a gluten free restuarant near here, but heard the chef left and it may not stay gluten free.

I stopped by the restraunt on my way home after passing my "big bad test" today for work and talked to the owner personally, maybe my beatuful little chef dude will get a raise!

And I have known for years my hubby is a keeper, thats why I let him catch me ;)

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

      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!

      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.

      No she didn't because if I want to ask I have to pay 700$ for 1 hour appointment so I couldn't even ask. I read that fillers like cornstash can alter the result and tylenol contains it so that's why I tried to find someone who can answer.

      Did the GI doc give you any rational for stopping the Tylenol during the gluten challenge? I have never heard of this before and I can't imagine a good reason for it. Ibuprofen, maybe, because it is an anti inflammatory but acetaminophen?  I don't see that it would have any impact on the test results to take Tylenol.
