What a nice thing to do. I would love to join you but since I am half the country away that just won't be possible. What is being served?

OOO, I'd love to. Thank you for extending the offer! I'll need a private jet to get me there and a hotel room with a deep jaccuzzi! (I miss Japanese tubs SO much. Maybe more than gluteny goodies. Our American tubs(at least the older ones, which is what I've always had) are so shallow and even a petite woman like me can't stretch out and end up with a stiff neck! I've given up baths-don't worry, not bathing! :lol: ) As for the menu, dairy-free and some miracle sugar-free low-carb desserts please. Haven't had a dessert or baked good other than a few slices of bread and a few crackers for nearly 3 months! I'll bet Emeril can make some good seafood! After moving away from California I miss Meyer lemons too! I supose an all American menu featuring regional dishes would be in order for such an occasion.

Woohoo! Even better. :o I don't know what I'd wear! I was thinking that I'd have to appeal to Stacy and Clinton from TLC's What Not To Wear for advice on how to shop when you can't fit into adult size clothing anymore-even petites- and don't want to shop in the teens section and end up looking like a teenager. I could live with looking 27 again but I'll pass on 17.

Well Ka-pow! Or what that thing is he says! It's about time he cooked me something...!

First though things I don't want.

No dead raw fish, and no dead raw cows, and no dead raw anything except veggies thanks.

Hmmm, no gluten, no dairy, no soy, no yeast of course.

Nothing made in a factory by machines with chemical squirting guns and nozzles.

OK, something to eat though. How about a great big steak well done and baked potato with olive oil and salt and pepper on it. And some Waldorfen salad. Maybe some popcorn balls. And a big butterscotch pie with mile high lemon meringue baked on top like my mother used to make. Even If I can't eat it I wouldn't mind looking at one on the table.

Of course since it's an inaugural ball all the waitresses will wear white shirts and black Tux tails with their neon red hot pants. My kitty kat Muffinn will not be left out of course. She will need fresh salmon and some Whiskas Temptation kitty treats and some Safeway brand Priority kitty treats in all the various flavors, served on the floor thank-you!

This is a great idea, that Emeril feller should cook us dinner more often eh? Ka-Pow!

We need some ideas for ice sculptures to decorate the hall also. :rolleyes::)

Thanks Missy'smom! BAM it is!

Oh well, but no BAM today! Looks like the inaugration speech is going on and the food hasn't arrived yet. Guess 'ol Emeril got tied up with other things this year. These things happen I guess. Next inauguration we should probably get our orders in a little sooner eh?

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SamAlvi! Were there any other antibody tests ordered? Particularly, was there a "total IGA" test ordered to check for IGA deficiency. When people are IGA deficient, celiac panel IGA test scores, such as the TTG-IGA, are likely not valid. If a total IGA test was not ordered, I would request such to be done. Note: "Total IGA" goes by other names as well. I will include a primer on celiac disease antibody testing which does a good job in covering the nomenclature variations connected with the various tests. Elevated IGG scores can certainly indicate celiac disease but they are more likely than elevated IGA tests to be caused by something else.

      Thank you— yes, valid and essential— The issue either doctors is that every one I have tried to talk to about this has essentially rolled their eyes and dismissed me as a hypochondriac, which gets discouraging. I believe a diagnosis would help me to be taken seriously by doctors as well as being validating, but can carry on without it.    There are many, probably most people in my area of my age and gender, who avoid gluten, but many just avoid it casually— eating the occasional plate of wheat pasta or a delicious-looking dessert, or baking cookies with wheat flour for gatherings.  That is not an option for me. I don’t eat other people’s cooking or go to restaurants that do not have strict cross- contamination procedures. It can be boring and lonely, and people do look at me as if I am being a bit dramatic but weeks of symptoms after a single small exposure has taught me to respect my experience.    Thank you very much for your response— sometimes I just need to hear that I am not crazy—

      You’re not crazy—some people have severe neurological and physical reactions to gluten, not just digestive issues. While testing can be tricky without eating gluten, documenting symptoms and seeing a specialist familiar with atypical celiac or gluten-related disorders can help. Your reactions are real, and it’s valid to be cautious.

      You might consider asking for a referral to a RD (Registered Dietician) to help with food choices and planning a diet. Even apart from any gluten issues, you will likely find there are some foods you need to avoid because of the shorter bowel but you may also find that your system may make adjustments over time and that symptoms may improve.
