I'm Leaving For Germany Tomorrow

Hello everybody,

I just thought I'd let you know that I will be leaving tomorrow for Germany, and won't be back for six weeks (on August 17th).

I don't expect to be able to check in too often while I am gone. I hope all of you have a great summer. I checked the weather report for Hamburg, Germany, and the next ten days is nothing but cold temperatures and rain (most days call for severe thunderstorms). I have my rain jacket and umbrella in my carry-on, so I am definitely prepared!

I'll 'see' you all when I get back!

Hope you have a great time! :) Let us know how you find eating gluten-free there...my fiance is (half) German, and we plan on touring there at some point.

Ursa,

Have a good, safe trip! I'll miss you around here, but I know how much you've looked forward to this trip, and I'm so glad you're going to be able to spend some time over there.

Hope that rain goes away quickly and you can enjoy better weather while there.

Take care, and have a nice, relaxing time :)

I don't know if you will still see this, but I hope you have a wonderful time!

We've had lots of rain and thunder here in Holland as well. Yesterday evening we had lightning cracking straight above the house, scary...

Oh awesome. Have a great time! Would also love a gluten-free report, as I'll be going there in November for two weeks.

      Is it gluten?

      Thanks for the reply.

      nothing has changed

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      Trip to Anaheim/Disney

      By Seaperky · Posted

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
