I have no idea!!! If I figure that mystery out I will let you in. :D:D:D

Thanks for the good wishes everyone. This will be a quiet Bday as the city has both ends of my street blocked off so I have no excuse for not being lazy and just putting in the garden in my roses. :)

I did something yesterday to celebrate that I would reccommend to any and all. As today is also my favorite kitties birthday, he is 12 (notice how bold I am with his age). I like to give him something special on his birthday to eat and then I thought back to when I was poor and needed to rely on food banks and how wonderful it is that I am able to give him something special now. It wasn't that long ago that I struggeld to feed all people and pets. So yesterday I took 10% of the gift money I had recieved and went and bought pet food with it. I brought it down to the local food bank and they were greatly thankful. They said most folks don't think about pets when they donate and they often have to tell folks with pets that they have nothing. She wasn't exagerating the shelf was empty. It gives a good feeling inside to know that today when I sit down to my birthday dinner there are some pets that will be able to eat today also.

It felt so good I may try to do it on a regular basis. No reason not to have 'special' days all year long and so much more fun than going out and just buying some trinket to celebrate.

      Newly Diagnosed

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @NCalvo822! Ditto to what Scott said. But let me ask you, what method or methods did your physician use to diagnose you as having celiac disease? Normally, it is a two step process. The first step involves a blood test that looks for certain antibodies produced by celiac disease. The second step involves an upper GI scoping and biopsy of the small bowel lining to check for the damage to the lining typically caused by celiac disease. This second step is used as confirmation of the blood work when the antibody testing turns up some positives. Occasionally, positive antibody tests scores can be caused by things besides celiac disease. Which of these were done or did you have both done before the doc declared you to have celiac disease?

      Thanks for sharing this info! Frustrating to see companies who haven't used wheat as an ingredient start to do so! https://blistex.com/product/five-star-lip-protection/

      Frustrated

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      I followed the Autoimmune Protocol Diet to get my symptoms calmed down and my nutrients up.   I know what a struggle it is.  You're why I'm here. Smoothing out some rough parts of your journey makes my journey worthwhile. Here's the tests you can get for Celiac antibodies...

      This Roller Coaster Ride Needs to Stop

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Ginger38, I'm with you!   I could not take Metformin.  I got so sick, constant diarrhea, abdominal cramps, extreme highs and lows, no energy, weight loss, muscle wasting.  Just horrible.   Metformin is known to block thiamine absorption.  Talk to your doctor about thiamine deficiency.  It's called Gastrointestinal Beriberi.  My doctor didn't recognize thiamine deficiency outside of alcoholism.  So I took over the counter Thiamine in the form Tetrahydrofurfuryl Disulfide and felt health improvement within an hour.  Magical!   I followed the Autoimmune Protocol diet to get my stomach calmed down and control my blood glucose levels without medication. Being diabetic, we lose more thiamine through our kidneys, and the Metformin on top of it and malabsorption from Celiac.  Talk to your doctor soon!
