Rough Week

Had the roughest week in the past 2 years (2 years trying to be gluten-free on the 21st)

Have to feel sorry for my wife and I know she feels bad.

Glutening #1

On Monday she decided to get a real bagel when I was out, missed some crumbs which got into something I tried to eat.

Sick with D and DH for 2 days.

Wednesday she tried to make up for it with a salad she made 10 times in the past few months. Within minutes I was sick again.

Tonight she made Pamala's brownie mix, that was it but again running back and forth to the throne room and all broken out with dh on top of the dh.

Sometimes its just rough trying to do it right!

Am sorry to hear its been so rough Ken! I think sometimes when its been so long it may be harder.

My sister Peggy is visiting from Southern California and she too got sick for the first time in 2 years. Sicker than a dog!! I am having her stay with me now rather than upstairs with our aged mother who hasn't completely cleaned up her act.

Hope you remember to take probiotics, marhsmallow root, slippery elm and the rest once you can tolerate anything. Peggy is doing much better using blackberry leaf tea--against the D.

Thanks Bea,

Usually I just sort of float around between my projects with no problems but for some reason last week was different.

I'm going to look for more S elm tomorrow and hope I can find it here. Leaving on the 29th so no time ot order from internet.

Hope your sister is better soon.

thanks again

Ya know, I bet if you ask really really nice, Collette would be happy to share some rain with you! Maybe you could even swap rain for warmth! :D Sounds like a win-win trade to me! :P

Seriously, hope you feel better soon!

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      By cristiana · Posted

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Russ H · Posted

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50. US 2024 - Increased Risk of Herpes Zoster Infection in Patients with Celiac Disease 50 Years Old and Older Sweden 2018 - Increased risk of herpes zoster in patients with coeliac disease - nationwide cohort study

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Flash1970 · Posted

      You might try Heallix.  It's a silver solution with fulvic acid. I just put the solution on with a cotton ball.  It seemed to stop the nerve pain. Again,  not in your eyes or ears.   Go to heallix.com to read more about it and decide for yourself Also,  I do think nerve and celiac combined have a lot to do with your susceptibility to shingles breaking out.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      Celiac disease requires both genetic potential and a triggering stress event to activate the genes. Otherwise it remains dormant and only a potential problem. So having the genetic potential is not deterministic for celiac disease. Many more people have the genes than actually develop the disease. But if you don't have the genes, the symptoms are likely being caused by something else.
