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!

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

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!

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

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

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 :)

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

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 :)

      My only proof

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Just wanted to add that checking B12 and Vitamin D only is not going to give an accurate picture of vitamin deficiencies.   B12 Cobalamine needs the seven other B vitamins to work properly.   You can have vitamin deficiency symptoms before the B12 blood level changes to show deficiency.  You can have "normal" B12, but have deficiencies in other B vitamins like Thiamine and Niacin, for which there are no accurate tests. Take a B Complex supplement with all the B vitamins.  Take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which has been shown to promote intestinal healing.  Thiamine Mononitrate found in most vitamin supplements is not easy for the body to utilize.  What makes thiamine mononitrate not break down on the shelf also makes it hard for the body to absorb and utilize.  Thiamine and Niacin B 3 deficiency symptoms include anxiety, depression and irritability.  The brain uses more Thiamine than other organs.  Take the B Complex and Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and look for health improvements in the following weeks.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Hello, @rei.b, Ehlers Danlos syndrome and Celiac Disease can occur together in genetically predisposed individuals.  Losing ones gallbladder is common with celiac disease. I'm glad Naltrexone is helping with your pain.  Naltrexone is known to suppress tTg IgA and tTg IgG production, so it's not surprising that only your DGP IgG and DGP IgA are high.   Have you tried the Autoimmune Protocol diet designed by Dr. Sarah Ballantyne, a Celiac herself?  The AIP diet helps lower inflammation and promotes intestinal healing.   The AIP diet is a Paleo diet that eliminates foods that can cause intestinal inflammation until you heal on the inside, then more foods can be added back in.  The low histamine AIP diet will help reduce inflammation further.   Histamine is released as part of the immune response in celiac disease.  Foods also contain various amounts of histamine or provoke histamine release.  Lowering the amount of histamine from foods helps.  The body, with help from B vitamins, can clear histamine, but if more histamine is consumed than can be cleared, you can stay in an inflammatory state for a long time. Cutting out high histamine foods is beneficial.  Omit night shades which contain alkaloids that add to leaky gut syndrome found with celiac disease.  Night shades include tomatoes, peppers including bell peppers, potatoes and eggplants.  Processed foods like sausages and gluten-free processed products are high in histamines.  All Grains are removed from the diet because they are inflammatory and provoke histamine release. Blood tests for deficiencies in B vitamins are notoriously inaccurate.  You can have vitamin deficiency symptoms before blood levels show a deficiency.  Blood levels do not accurately measure the quantity of B vitamins stored inside the cells where they are utilized.  The brain will order stored vitamins to be released from organs into the blood stream to keep the brain and heart supplied while deficiency occurs inside organs, like the gallbladder.  Gall bladder dysfunction is caused by a deficiency in Thiamine Vitamin B 1 and other B vitamins.   The eight essential B vitamins are water soluble and easily lost with diarrhea and constipation, and the malabsorption and inflammation that occurs with celiac disease.  Because they are water soluble, the body can easily excrete any excess B vitamins in urine.  The best way to see if you are deficient is to take a B Complex and Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and look for health improvements in the following weeks.  Most B Complex supplements contain Thiamine Mononitrate which is not bioavailable.  The body has a difficult time utilizing thiamine mononitrate because it doesn't break down easily.  Benfotiamine has been shown to promote intestinal healing.   Remember your intestines are in a damaged, permeable state.  Treat them tenderly, like you would a baby until they heal.  You wouldn't feed a baby spicy bell peppers and hard to digest corn and nuts.  Change your diet so your intestines can heal.   I use a combination of B12 Cobalamine, B 6 Pyridoxine, and B1 Benfotiamine for pain.  These three B vitamins have analgesic properties.  They relieve pain better than other otc pain relievers.

      I hadn't been eating gluten free before having the antibody test done. I started eating gluten free after having the test done because the gastro PA told me to eat gluten-free for 6 months. I'm now 3 months in.
