A Celiac Success

Just finished cleaning up after the extended family left. I managed to get 10 adults and 2 babies through a gluten free dinner without complaints or surprise gluten. A blissful birthday indeed. Beer basted chicken, veggies, smashed potatoes. Safe chips & dip. Knickinick white cake whith a Betty Crocker adaptation that got rave reviews and home made ice cream cake. Trix for the babies to snack on.

I sent out an e-mail to everyone asking them to leave the cooking to me, and leave the babies crackers at home. I gave specific brands if they wanted to bring something. (we always bring a dish to pass). Chips, veggie tray, soda, regular beer (Ok with me).

What a great time it was to be able to eat out of the chip bowl and comment how fresh the veggies tasted. I even ate the same cake as everyone. (I indulged dispite my mild egg allergy). The cake was incredible and my husband says it was the best he has ever had.

Hubby also told the guys at dinner that he feels more energetic now that he is eating gluten free too. Incredibly, he has noticed feeling sleepy on the days he has had big bowls of cereal when I'm not around. He has autism and type 1 diabeties in his extended family, so maybe he has a gene or two to feel the effects of this poison.

Good day and good cake. Good Cake. Good cake.

OK. Knickinick white cake, sub OJ instead of water. Layer with lemon pie filling. Top with Whipped White frosting. It is on the Betty Crocker Frosting page. Mmmmm

      It can take longer than 6 months for antibodies to drop to the normal range,  My DGP IgA took a few years as I got stricter and stricter about being gluten free  But having symptoms again could also mean you’re getting some gluten in your diet.

      Hi, I just had my 6 month check after being diagnosed Celiac 6 months ago.  All of my panel numbers were normal except: Deamidated Gliadin Abs, IgA (It is 31 with high being over 30)  I have also been having symptoms again. Am I not actually being as careful as I think I am or does it take longer than 6 months for this particular test to come back down?  I can't get ahold of my doctor this week as she is out.     Thank you!

      That is very strange, because it looks to me like two very different test results, but for the same test! It's definitely time to contact your doctor for clarity on this.

      Same day which is strange to me.

      Scott, thank you SO MUCH for this!! She has been through so much in the last three years as we've tried to track down answers. This language will definitely help me help her to reframe.
