I'm A Noob, But This Ticks Me Off!

At McDonald's I usually get a salad. The first time I went there after being diagnosed I got the asian salad and poured the dressing all over the salad without even thinking. I read the back of the package as I was about to take a bite and saw that there was wheat in it. I took the salad and everything back up to the counter and told a worker that I had just bought the salad, put the dressing on, read the package and found out about the wheat. I just told him I have a very strong allergy towards wheat. He gladly gave me a brand new salad and brought me all of the gluten-free salad dressings they had and let me choose one. I usually get the asian salad with their french dressing now. I have never been sick from that combo and usually feel really good afterwards. I was surprised at how easy it was with the whole deal but it totally gave me a new perspective on McDonald's. It made me feel so good. :D

      Just ate some for lunch!  A really superb alternative to gluten-free bread and burger buns that all have the taste and consistency of compacted sawdust.  I bought two packs and now I'm down to one remaining muffin so need to get some more; the only thing is it's their own brand - they don't do mail or on line ordering and the nearest TJ's is in Charlottesville (a real nightmare to drive around) an hour away from me over the mountain.  😒

      When I underwent a scope three years ago, the GI told me I was negative for celiac because there was no intestinal damage (in spite of multiple strong positive labs). I went back to look at my biopsy report out of curiosity, and found this note: “Localized mild nodular mucosa was found in the duodenal bulb. Duodenum otherwise normal.” The pathology from this scope was negative. Does anyone have any insight into mild modular mucosa and what that could indicate or be a precursor to? I’ve read it can be a sign of celiac or other gut issues like h. Pylori, etc.  Thanks in advance!

      I also had high eosinophils which I’ve never had before either - could that be due to gluten consumption?

      You're welcome! Be sure the patient eats at least ten grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks prior to repeating antibody testing.   Some people unconsciously reduce the amount of gluten in their diet because the feel unwell.  Three grams of gluten per day is sufficient to produce symptoms.  Only at ten grams or more is the immune system provoked to raise the antibody production high enough so that the antibodies leave the digestive tract and enter the blood stream where they can be measured.   Read the comments below the article...
