Here are my two dogs. Diva is the Chihuahua and Syndi is the Pomeranian.

This is Diva when we first got her. She is now about a year and a half old.

Here is Syndi when we first got her. She is now 7 years old.

We used to have two Poms. But, my sweet little Billy died a year and a half ago. Here is a picture of me with Syndi and Billy. This was before we got Diva. Billy is the dog on the right.

Our first cat, Dennis. He is 7 years old now too.

This is Monkey. He just showed up in our back yard one day. Sweetest cat ever. He is about 6 now.

This is Tigose and Starina. Tigose is the tiger colored one. They are from the same litter and are about 4 years old.

This is Barney when he was a baby. He came from my gluten-free's sister. He has the most beautiful blue eyes you could ever see. He's a really big boy now.

This is Otis. He just showed up at my gluten-free's job one day. He latched onto her shoulder and he was so scared he wouldn't let go. She literally worked the whole day with this cat on her shoulder like this.

This is our parakeet, Sky

And last but not least....Sweet Pea! He is a Finsch's Conure and is truly amazing. So smart. He is funny, he is loving, he is playful, and he is a spoiled brat.

Sweet Pea is so special that I am going to post a slide show of him.

Ok, well, that's it! I hope you guys enjoy looking at our sweet babies. We love them all so much. They are a lot of work I have to admit, but worth every second of it.

Very nice photos, Lynnie. I can't believe how your conure and dogs interact like that--amazing.

Sweet Pea, our conure and Syndi our Pom, for some strange reason have taking a liking for each other. Syndi is so sweet with that bird. I put them down on the bed together and Syndi hovers over Sweet Pea like a little mother hen. And Sweet Pea just goes up to her and gets really close and all in her hair. Sweet Pea will lay down on his back right below her and wave his little feet in the air, like he is being silly and playing. It's such a sight to see. Cute as can be.

Now Diva, our chihuahua, is deathly afraid of Sweet Pea. She runs for her life when we try to put the bird down with her.

And the funny thing is, we have six cats, but one of our cats, Dennis is also close with Sweet Pea. Sometimes I will lay down on the bed with the both of them. Sweet Pea will climb all over that cat, on his head and everything and the cat just lets him do whatever he wants. Dennis is so loving.

We love our babies so much. They really are like our children and we get so much joy from them. They are all as loving as they can be. They all have their different personalities and quirky things that they do. We just adore them all!

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      @catnapt, Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract. They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows. Even beans have lectins. You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract. You may want to allow your digestive tract...

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg). Both are gluten free and free of other allergens. I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25". It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA. It's a powder form of Vitamin A. ...

      I wouldn't consider this lucky. I can NOT tolerate the symptoms. And I googled it and I was not even getting 10 grams of gluten per day and I was extremely ill. They'd have to put me in the hospital. I'm not kidding. I will have my first appt with a GI dr on March 4th I will not eat gluten again - at least not on purpose ...

      @catnapt,  Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract.  They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows.   Even beans have lectins.  You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract.   You may want to allow your digestive tract to rest for a week, then start on gluten in "normal" food, not in concentrated vital wheat gluten. This explains it well: Lectins, agglutinins, and their roles in autoimmune reactivities https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25599185/

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg).   Both are gluten free and free of other allergens.  I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25".  It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA.  It's a powder form of Vitamin A.  I was having trouble digesting fats at one point, but found I tolerated the powder form much better and have stuck with it since.   Tryptophan and Vitamin A help heal the intestines as well as improves skin health.  I get Dermatitis Herpetiformis and eczema flairs when my stomach is upset.  So I'm healing the outside as well as the inside.   I take one 1000 mg Tryptophan before bedtime.   With the Thiamine HCl, take 100 mg to start.  If you don't notice anything, three hours later take another. You can keep increasing your dose in this manner until you do notice improvement.  Remember not to take it in the evening so it won't keep you too energized to sleep. When I first started Thiamine HCl, taking 500 mg to 1000 mg to start was recommended.  If you've been thiamine insufficient for a while, you do notice a big difference.  It's like the start of a NASCAR race: Zoom, Zoom, turn it up!   This scared or made some people uncomfortable, but it's just your body beginning to function properly, like putting new spark plugs in your engine.  I took 1000 mg all at once without food.  It kicked in beautifully, but I got a tummy ache, so take with food.  I added in Thiamine TTFD and Benfotiamine weeks later and felt like I was Formula One racing.  So cool.  You may feel worse for a couple days as your body adjusts to having sufficient thiamine.  Feels sort of like you haven't cranked your engine for a while and it backfires and sputters, but it will settle down and start purring soon enough.  Adjust your dose to what feels right for you, increasing your dose as long as you feel improvement.  You can reach a plateau, so stay there for several days, then try bumping it up again.  If no more improvements happen, you can stay at the plateau amount and experiment with increasing your Thiamine TTFD.  It's like being your own lab rat.  LoL Yes, take one Benfotiamine at breakfast and one at lunch.  Take the B Complex at breakfast. Take the TTFD at breakfast and lunch as well.  I like to take the vitamins at the beginning of meals and the NeuroMag at the end of meals.   You may want to add in some zinc.  I take Thorne Zinc 30 mg at breakfast at the beginning of the meal.   Are you getting sufficient Omega Threes?  Our brains are made up mostly of fat.  Flaxseed oil supplements, sunflower seed oil supplements (or eat the seeds themselves) can improve that.  Cooking with extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil is also helpful.   @Wheatwacked likes phosphotidyl choline supplements for his Omega Threes.  He's also had dramatic health improvement by supplementing thiamine.  You're doing great!  Thank you for sharing your journey with us.  This path will smooth out.  Keep going!
