Hi, Sorry I could nto find the message you sent but hope you can get this one.

when do you leave? where in tokyo will you stay? Have you been here before and if so can you get by in japanese? All these things will help. scrolling though all the mesasges will too but to start --

yes bring the dining cards with you it will help in some places but in others they will still look at you like your crazy.

yesterday i went though a bunch of health food stores took pictures of all the gluten-free soy sauces, flours, cookies and other things I was surprised to find.

going to be a while until I can upload them all. after that I drove to nagoya at 5am -- after midnight and im still at it.

i would bring one bottle with you of wheat free shoyu. I often bring more and leave them for friends here.

if you stay at a place you can cook, i can tell youwhere to go.

anyway the store in yokohama is called Natural something -- also have a picture of the sign and my notes which I'll upload later. also some other things in Japanese.

The places I usually hand out are on the expensive side but worth it. they do keep my soy sauce there which your welcome to use.

hope this helps

Ken,

What do I need to bring with me, look for for my trip to Tokyo. Do I bring the card explaining our diet? Should I carry wheat free soya sauce? Any advice will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Nancy

You can also order Japanese language dining cards from the above company. If you do use the cards from the site that Ken posted, try to use the high resolution version. My husband(Japanese) said that he has difficulty reading the card version.

Here is is a link with information on board member's travels in Japan, including information that Ken posted in Japanese.

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

      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 test that day. i just got my results back and it indicates celiac disease i think 😭   im honestly happy bc now i KNOW and i can go gluten free. and i am SO MAD at this doctor for dismissing me for a simple blood test that wouldn’t have cost her anything !!!!!!!!!!! im sorry, im so emotional right now, i have been sick my whole life and never knew why, i feel so much better already   my results from labcorp:   Celiac Ab tTG TIgA w/Rflx Test Current Result and Flag Previous Result and Date Units Reference Interval t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA 01 28 High U/mL 0-3 Negative 0 - 3 Weak Positive 4 - 10 Positive >10 Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) has been identified as the endomysial antigen. Studies have demonstrated that endomysial IgA antibodies have over 99% specificity for gluten sensitive enteropathy. Immunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum 01 245 mg/dL 87-352

      Thank you this really helped.

      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.
