Yes, I know and I already apologized. I just don't think it's a good idea anymore for me to hang out there. Maybe anybody else does it. I sure don't want to be a prick and if anybody askes me for help i sure won't say no. But on my own i'm not doing anything anymore. I'll stay on this message board here, where we know each other. I'm just sick of helping anywhere else. That's all...

Hugs, Stef

No problem, but I may come bug you if people ask about Celiac ;) And I have been meaning to post this over here. It is an awesome way to help explain anything and everything about having our multiple issues.

I will :). It'll be tough to leave, cause as you can probably tell, I live on this board! When I'm not doing homework or sleeping or eating, I'm on here posting--I'm going to go through withdrawl being away for a few days :lol:

Steph,

You have helped me. I learned about something new.

It just so happens a mother at school approached to ask me about Celiac. Her daughter has the peanut allergy at school. Her younger child at home is now going through the symptoms of Celiac or maybe E.E. I could only tell her about Celiac at the time, because I never heard of E.E. I will tell her about E.E. If the information helps her, I will let you know if I hear anything. You may have helped a child get an earlier diagnoses, for something we know the are very painfull symptoms.

Maybe things didn't go the way you hoped, but you may have helped more people than you ever imagined. You acted from your heart.

Thank you,

Laura

      I have enjoyed Schar's gluten free products for years. However, some items Do contain Wheat and are not clearly labeled on the front. Indeed the package states 'gluten free' on the front, and it is not until you read the ingredient label that one see's wheat as the first ingredient. Some celiacs may be willing to take a chance on this 'gluten free wheat', but not me. I strongly feel that the labeling for these wheat containing products should be clearly labeled on the front, with prehaps a different color and not using the 'no gluten symbol on the front. The products are not inexpensive, and also dangerous for my health!

      Thiamine Mononitrate is "shelf stable" and won't break down easily when exposed to heat, light and over time.  This makes it very hard for the body to absorb and utilize it.  Only thirty percent is absorbed, less is utilized because it takes additional thiamine to break it down.   Thiamine Hydrochloride is great.  Benfotiamine is wonderful, too.   Retaining water, edema, is a symptom of low thiamine.  I'd bloat up like a puffer fish.   The ingrown toenail problems I had that I attribute to Niacin deficiency and Vitamin C deficiency.  My toenails curled in and grew thick and yellow, thickened heels.  It was awful.   So glad you're going to give thiamine hydrochloride a try!   Let me know how it goes.  You may feel worse before you feel better, the thiamine paradox, but it does clear up.  It's like a car back firing if it hasn't been run for a while.   Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Thanks again, I'll keep pressing on.  🤞

      @Known1, Search for "niacin flush fades the longer you use it" and "Niacin flush worse if deficient".   It takes a couple to three weeks for the body to adjust and you're at that point now, so things should improve. Riboflavin makes the neon color, which glows under black light.  If not absorbed, excreted.  Absorption of riboflavin will improve as the body starts healing the intestinal lining and villi grow back.   You could skip the multivitamin instead.

      The conversion factor for mg/dl and mmol/L is 18. So 5 = 90, 7 = 126, and so on. In the US, blood sugar regulations now are the same as what we use in the UK except for this difference in units. In terms of how they compare in the past, the numbers today that I quoted are stricter than they used to be. Blood sugar numbers for +1 and +2 hour postprandial are measured from the beginning of a meal in these official numbers. In regards to the thiamin supplement I have: it says it is thiamine mononitrate. I had not until now been aware there were different types (it seems I find that is the case with everything, including the magnesium I take!) and this one I have is the only one available in my local stores. I know it makes my pee smell strong when I take it which would seem to indicate my body is absorbing enough that the remainder gets ejected, but I could be wrong. Of course, I'm willing to try anything reasonable to correct this long standing condition, whatever it might be so I will try and get thiamin hydrochloride. Back on the note of diabetes (potentially) I haven't had the blood test for a while and I did notice ingrown toenail type infections a few times in the last 3 years that kept coming back. I heard that diabetes caused high urination. But eating sugar and elevated blood sugar causes the opposite in me. If I eat a lot of sugar I retain water, like big time. If I ate a bunch o sugar in the afternoon say, I can produce little enough urine that I can go over 12 hours and have nowhere near enough urine to need to void in that time or longer which seems abnormal.
