Dear Deb,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU! Sorry it is belated! :( I just saw the thread! How are you doing? I know you were having a rough time of it the last I wrote you. Did you do anything special yesterday?

Sincerely,

Jin

Thank you for the good wishes.

No Jin--nothing, just worked. My family is all 800 miles away, kind of a sad day for me. Birthday's are not to be had alone and thanks to all of you, you have brightened the day for me. ;)

Dear Deb,

How sucky is that?! :( Everyone being so far away on your special day is so lousy. I am going to make you an e-cake!

Gluten-free of course! Plus, it cannot make you fat or hurt your stomach! ;)

Can you see it? The skinny part at the top is the lit candle. The part with the 0s is the icing. Then, then 1s are the cake. Oh, and you are 25 this year, in case you were wondering! :lol: HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Sincerely,

Jin

P.S. When I posted it, it did not look like a cake! It did before I posted it!

darlindeb25 Collaborator

Silly--it's the best cake anyone has made me since going gluten free--thank you very much! :lol:

jerseyangel Proficient

Jin,

You are such a sweetheart :D

NoGluGirl Contributor

Dear Deb,

I am so glad you liked my cake! :) It could be a World Trade Center cake! We will rise again! B) You sure are wise beyond your years for 25! What a coincidence that we both are turning 25 in the same year!

Dear Patti,

Thank you for the compliments! You are sweet, too! :D Isn't it wonderful we can share birthdays together? Our family here is the best! Plus, it is for the better health of all!

Sincerely,

Jin

THERE WILL BE A SPECIAL PLACE IN HEAVEN FOR YOU

THAT CAKE WAS SUCH A SWEET THING TO DO..........BUT THAT'S OUR JIN.

SORRY YOU WERE ALONE DEB.............I WAS FOR MY 50TH ONE TOO.

JUDY

darlindeb25 Collaborator

Jin, did I misunderstand you? Do you think I am 25, God bless you!!!!! I am 52 now--my daughter in the pic with me will be 25 on Tuesday though!!!!!!! She was due on my birthday, but just didn't want to be born on that day!

NoGluGirl Contributor

Dear Judy,

Thank you so much! :) It must have been terrible being alone on your 50th! You know, I met the Pope, sort of. After Pope John Paul II died, I had a dream. The thing is, it was not just a dream. I know I was up in heaven with the light. There was no floor, just radiant white light, and Pope John Paul II was standing there with his arms open as if he were going to hug me. The feeling was amazing, and indescribable! HUGS!

Dear Deb,

I decided you were 25 this year! Youth is a state of mind. It is in your soul! :) You are only old if you say so, and if you believe so! Whether you are 52 or 22, age is a number. This has nothing to do with your self worth, only a measure of how long you have been on the planet physically. ;) HUGS!

Sincerely,

Jin

Happy belated birthday Deb,

You were my very first gluten-free friend. Sorry so late , but I was in the hospital on the 24th (my bd also) from a motorcycle accident.

best regards, lm

You've been missed larry mac. Hope you are doing better, and a belated birthday to you!

NoGluGirl Contributor

Dear Deb,

You are so welcome! ;) My grandmother always said she was too old for everything. I do not want other people doing that! It makes you old! That is like the self-fulfilling prophecy we learned of in our Interpersonal Communications class. My grandmother now has Alzheimer's. I do not want anyone to end up like that!

Dear larrymac,

How awful about the accident! Are you alright? I am sorry to hear you had to be in the hospital. Being there is never any fun. It is great you are home again.

Dear Goosey,

Hello to you! How are you? I am glad you seem to be well. The meet-up with tom and some of the others the other week sounded wonderful! I wish I could have been there, too!

Sincerely,

Jin

Hi Larry Mac,

I wondered what happened to you. So sorry to hear about your accident.

Belated Happy Birthday :)

larry mac Enthusiast

Thank you mg, ja, & ngg,

Yes ngg, I am alright. However, I have a metal plate and screws holding the bones together in my left arm, a banged up left knee, and assorted bruises and boo boo's. I have absolutely no memory of the accident, I woke up in the ambulance. Funny thing though, the responding officers say I was awake the whole time. Guess I was in shock.

Apparently there was an SUV that made a sudden illegal right turn from the middle lane. Unfortunately, I was in the right lane. There was a brief battle and I lost. She received a traffic citation, I got 4 days in the hospital and 2 surgeries. My wife say

jerseyangel Proficient

Lm--

How awful....thank goodness you're ok now. Can't say I blame your wife at all ;)

It was probably the heavy pain meds that kept you from having D from the questionable hospital food--they are terribly constipating. I was on them during and after a 2 day hospitalization in January and didn't feel the need to go for 6 days.

Take care :)

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.
