Odd Coincidence

We've been looking at houses for well over a year now searching for the perfect place to live. Today we toured a beautiful home and when we opened up the pantry it was stocked with DeBoles gluten free pasta and Koala Crisp!!! I'm sure the realtor thought I was a freak with the way I was carrying on about their food.

Wow, how odd is that? I think you are destined to have that house :) Are you staying in your general area?

The housing in our area is not the greatest, we took have been looking for some time and neither of us are thrilled with what has been out there. Well, there was this nifty house a few months back, it had an open stairwell which was in this open window that spanned the house top to bottom, so when you were coming from level to level you looked out into this beautiful wooded area. I kept picturing it in the winter while snow was falling. It was going for a great price, it would need some minor work but we both liked it.....a another agent came and bought it on the spot....wasn't our day :)

Well, if you'd buy that house, you wouldn't have to worry as much about scrubbing everything to be safe from cc.

I thought the same thing when I read your post :D

That is a coincidence! Could be an omen....

Haha, my boyfriend and I are moving into a new place together May 1, and we are already planning the kitchen scrubdown that will take place. We have some layover time, where we will have both houses so a whole day is going into kitchen deglutening.

Unfortunately, there was gluten in the house. The place was immaculate though. I would feel relatively comfortable moving in there without scrubbing like a mad woman. I'd have to rigorously clean, but nothing like I would have to do in any other house. The place was exactly what i want too. I'm just not sure its what hubby wants.

Amanda, you should look at houses outside of lebanon. There are some really pretty areas and its not far from the hospital. E-town is really nice too, though I think its more expensive than Lebanon County.

We just bought a house in Slatington, PA. We got a good deal, but the house needs a lot of interior renovation. I don't think the guy cooks much, if ever, but there will be lots of cleaning taking place the day we close on the house (prior to moving day).

FF and Guhlia - you should get a face mask - I learned from a bad experience. There are the paper ones - which aren't any good - but I would recommend the ones that look like gas masks. They sell them for use in woodworking or working with dust and fumes.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      Is there a digestive enzyme that helps build a healthier gut? I see people taking them but not sure what really works

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped".

      hi, i want to say thank you to you and @trents . after 2 phone calls to my GI, her office called me back to tell me that a blood test was “unnecessary” and that we should “follow the gold standard” and since my biopsy did not indicate celiac, to follow the no dairy and sucraid diet. i luckily have expendable income and made an appt for the labcorp blood t...

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong. yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped". Your Serum IGA 01 (aka, "total IGA") at 245 mg/dl is within normal range, indicating you are not IGA deficient. But I also think it would be wise to take your doctor's advice about the sucraid diet and avoiding dairy . . . at least until you experience healing and your gut has had a chance to heal, which can take around two years. After that, you can experiment with adding dairy back in and monitor symptoms. By the way, if you want the protein afforded by dairy but need to avoid casein, you can do so with whey protein powder. Whey is the other major protein in dairy.
