An Introduction!

Hi there everyone!!

I wasn't quite sure where to post this, so I decided to just make my introductions here! :)

I'm Lindsay, I'm 18, and I live in Utah. Right now I'm just in the beginnings of starting a photography business. And I start college courses in January at a local University so I can live at home for awhile.

I haven't been diagnosed with ANYTHING yet... and, well, I'm kind of sick of being sick. Honestly. But, I'll leave that out of my intro hehe

I don't plan on majoring in anything right off the bat, but I'll be taking classes in a bunch of different subjects that interest me and kind of see where that all lands. I'd like to possibly go into clinical psychology, forensic anthropology, and of course photography. So we'll see!! :)

I love animals, and always have... if I wasn't so terrible with Biology, I'd certainly be a vet. I think they're the only consistent presence in my life and I am so grateful for that. I have two dogs of my own, Sophie- a 18 month old Great Dane, and Oliver-a two year old Chiweenie (Chihuahua-Dachshund mix) as well as two cats Kitty and Greycee and five birds of varying species. My parents have three dogs and three cats as well, so we've got a FULL house!! haha If it weren't for them, I'm not sure I'd have the strength to keep on keepin' on. Life has been very difficult for me and they have been my saving graces.

I'm excited to possibly be on the right track with what's been going on with me, because it's been years of feeling terrible and I am so over it. It got so bad that I had to leave public high school in the middle of my sophomore year and was homeschooled for the rest. I just began testing for Celiacs, and hopefully the initial blood test results will be in very soon, I also have a food allergy test tomorrow (which I am NOT looking forward to. haha) I'm a member of a couple other amazing forums, and I love the relationships that develop talking to people that have something in common with you. I hope I get some of the same here!!!

      1 Year Elimination Diet journey

      I have been looking for brands that are ready to make areas of time as I normally hear my oatmeal 1 min in microwave every morning. It appears buckwheat requires allot of cleaning soaking longer cook times. Any eat recipes have you tried. Also what's the reason if adding lemon juice to groats? Thanks

      Celiac flare years after diagnosis

      @nancydrewandtheceliacclue, If I were you I would give up the bread tossing until everything is under control for a few months straight. Then try doing it again and see if symptoms return. If you just can't give it up, try wearing a good mask, tie your hair up tight, and take other steps to reduce the possibility of crumbs sticking to you and eventually ending...

      New Study Reveals How the Immune System Learns Which Foods Are Safe to Eat

      It would be an interesting experiment to add the zein "tolerance" tag to a gliadin peptide and feed it to the celiac mouse model to see if it is tolerated or rejected.

      I love buckwheat groats (or kasha). I also like to add peanut butter to it. There are a bunch of these alternatives but I also recommend amaranth. It's good with fruit and/or cinnamon.

      @nancydrewandtheceliacclue, If I were you I would give up the bread tossing until everything is under control for a few months straight. Then try doing it again and see if symptoms return. If you just can't give it up, try wearing a good mask, tie your hair up tight, and take other steps to reduce the possibility of crumbs sticking to you and eventually ending up in your food. Attached below is a link to a nice graphic on what 10 mg would look like and I think it would be possible to ingest enough crumbs through the air. Also keep in mind that some people are reacting even at 10 mg per day. (They describe it as 1/350th of a slice of bread.) https://nationalceliac.org/celiac-disease-questions/understanding-gluten-levels/

      @nancydrewandtheceliacclue, if you had trouble breathing, I agree with Scott. That sounds like anaphylaxis.
