Any other musicians/artsists out there? I write my own music, wondering if there is anyone else here? :)

I don't write music, but I love it. I have 2 guitars, and am learning to play them. I found a perfect quote one day:

Music is what feelings sound like!

I am an artist by nature but not by profession. I love working with stained glass and painting and also enjoy making jewelry and working with textiles. Right now most of my artistic impulses are involved in my gardens and also with my writing. I am working on a childrens book about celiac, don't know if I will ever get it out there anywhere. I am also a published poet but do very little poetry writing nowadays.

What style of music do you write? Do you write the lyrics also?

I'm a musician (BMus and MMus in progress), but primarily a music researcher. I am an artist for fun - I love to paint.

I used to write music and poetry years ago, have even done some recording (again, long time ago). I play rhythm guitar and love to sing, at one time semi-professionally. I play flute and play at the keyboard. Unfortunately have not been taking much time for any of this for quite a while.....partly because I just don't feel good enough to.

I used to sketch a lot, I quilt, make jewelry, dream catchers, do crafts. Basically I like to do anything creative and love to learn new things. Gardening takes a lot of my time in spring-fall, especially now as we've moved to a new house recently.

There is absolutely nothing in this world like making music with a group of people who "fit" together. Singing in harmonies is as close to heaven as this earth gets!!

I majored in music back in college (in the OLDEN days) and have spent my life fiddling around with folksish, balladish, and now more and more old-timeish music. I've made one celiac disease and have performed here and there a little when opportunities came my way...not too much for the past 15 or 20 years, though.

I used to like to pencil sketch, but don't have time... now I do some knitting, crochet, when time allows for that.

Here's music stuff I've been working on/studying recently... I'm getting more and more interested in clawhammer banjo... recently went to West Va. to study with a clawhammer guy... which I never could have done before... I never travelled or left home much because of my gut... now I'm pretty good and I can get out away from home... a NEW thing for me now... at almost 2 1/2 yrs. gluten free...

here's some of that on my youtube page Open Original Shared Link

It says above I've made one "celiac disease," what I wrote was that I'd made one recording, and used the initials, i.e., a C followed by a D... and it came out "celiac disease".

awesome! Thats acctually one of my worries, traveling. My goal is to be able to tour and I'm just thinking now, all I need to do is get CC and I will feel horrible for the next gig :(

here's my "one man (girl) band" project :lol:

its my space.com with "/msauers" at the end (it wouldnt let me post the site :(

GREAT music! Yes, you should hit the road and go for it!!! As long as you're feeling good by now.

I gotta say, I was pretty nervous the whole time I was away... fearing cc and staying in his little dorm-like cabin... how awful it would be if I got all messed up... embarrassing, interrupting of the whole process, etc. I was scared about that... but I explained it to him before I left that I would be eating ONLY foods I brought myself... brought a big cooler and snacks and stuff and also made a couple of trips to local stores and grabbed a few things... potatoes, tomatoes, etc. I cooked my stuff in his common kitchen, but brought my own pans, forks, spatulas, plates, etc... I'd explained ahead of time about my need to do this so it wouldn't seem strange or hurt anybody's feelings.

Like I said, I did worry the whole time, but it was really the first REAL trip I've taken and nothing bad happened... I was careful about having all my own food and not lettting my food touch anything and not letting anyone else touch my food.

I hope in the future I can get more confident in doing this... I would avoid restaurants on the road, but if you just run to local stores and buy fresh stuff, have a set of pots/pans/plates (camping stuff is light and easy to travel around with) and just be in charge of all of your own food... you should be okay. Don't take any chances... even if you have to be hungry a little while extra... I carried bagged SAFE snacks along in case that happened... but I think it should be something doable.

      I was not taking any medications previous to this. I was a healthy 49 yo with some mild stomach discomfort. I noticed the onset of tinnitus earlier this year and I had Covid at the end of June. My first ‘flare-up’ with these symptoms was in August and I was eating gluten like normal. I had another flare-up in September and then got an upper endo at the end of September that showed possible celiac. My blood test came a week later. While I didn’t stop eating gluten before I had the blood test, I had cut back on food and gluten both. I had a flare-up with this symptoms after one week of gluten free but wasn’t being crazy careful. Then I had another flare-up this week. I think it might have been caused by Trader Joe’s baked tofu which I didn’t realize had wheat. But I don’t know if these flare-ups are caused by gluten or if there’s something else going on. I am food journaling and tracking all symptoms. I have lost 7 pounds in the last 10 days.

      Welcome to the forum, @Hmart! There are other medical conditions besides celiac disease that can cause villous atrophy as well as some medications and for some people, the dairy protein casein. So, your question is a valid one. Especially in view of the fact that your antibody testing was negative, though there are also some seronegative celiacs. So, do you get reactions every time you consume gluten? If you were to purposely consume a slice of bread would you be certain to develop the symptoms you describe?

      I only went on the multi vitamin AFTER a couple of year of high dose, targeted supplementation resolved most of my deficiencies.  I was on quite a cocktail of vitamins that was changed every 6 months as my deficiencies resolved.  Those that were determined to be genetic are still addressed with specific doses of those vitamins, minerals and amino acids. I have an update on my husband and his A Fib.  He ended up in the hospital in August 2025 when his A Fib would not convert.  He took the maximum dose of Flecainide allowed within a 24 hour period.  It was a nightmare experience!  They took him into the ER immediately.  They put in a line, drew blood, did an EKG and chest Xray all within minutes.  Never saw another human for 6 hours.  Never got any results, but obviously we could see he was still in A fib by watching the monitor.  They have the family sign up for text alerts at the ER desk.  So glad I did.  That is the only way we found out that he was being admitted.  About an hour after that text someone came to take him to his room on an observation floor.  We were there two hours before we saw another human being and believe it or not that was by zoom on the TV in the room.  It was admissions wanting to know his vaccine status and confirming his insurance, which we provided at the ER desk.  They said someone would be in and finally a nurse arrived.  He was told a hospitalist was in charge of his case.  Finally the NP for the hospitalist showed up and my husband literally blew his stack.  He got so angry and yelled at this poor woman, but it was exactly what he needed to convert himself to sinus rhythm while she was there.  They got an EKG machine and confirmed it.  She told him that they wanted to keep him overnight and would do an echo in the morning and they were concerned about a wound on his leg and wanted to do a doppler to make sure he did not have a DVT.  He agreed.  The echo showed everything fine, just as it was at his annual check up in June and there was no DVT.  A cardiologist finally showed up to discharge him and after reviewing his history said the A Fib was due to the Amoxicillan prescribed for his leg wound.  It both triggers A Fib and prevents the Flecainide from working.  His conversion coincided with the last dose of antibiotic getting out of his system.  So, make sure your PCP understands what antibiotics you can or cannot take if susceptible to A Fib.  This cardiologist (not his regular) wanted him on Metoprolol 25 mg and Pradaxa.  My husband told him that his cardiologist axed the idea of a beta blocker because his heart rate is already low.  Sure enough, it dropped to 42 on the Metoprolol and my husband felt horrible.  The pradaxa gave him a full body rash!  He went back to his cardiologist for follow up and his BP was fine and heart rate in the mid 50's.  He also axed the Pradaxa since my husband has low platelets, bruises easily and gets bloody noses just from Fish Oil  He suggested he take Black Cumin Seed Oil for inflammation.  He discovered that by taking the Black Seed oil, he can eat carbs and not go into A Fib, since it does such a good job of reducing inflammation.   Oh and I forgot to say the hospital bill was over $26,000.  Houston Methodist!

      The symptoms that led to my diagnosis were stomach pain, diarrhea, nausea, body/nerve tingling and burning and chills. It went away after about four days but led me to a gastro who did an upper endo and found I had marsh 3b. I did the blood test for celiac and it came back negative.  I have gone gluten free. In week 1 I had a flare-up that was similar to my original symptoms. I got more careful/serious. Now at the end of week 2 I had another flare-up. These symptoms seem to get more intense. My questions:  1. How do I know if I have celiac and not something else? 2. Are these symptoms what others experience from gluten?  When I have a flare-up it’s completely debilitating. Can’t sleep, can’t eat, can’t move. Body just shakes. I have lost 10 pounds since going gluten free in the last two weeks.
