I don't feel good

I can't keep my eyes open

I can't take my pain pills because I don't need that much anymore

I got Meijer's brand Advil.

I took two.

I got a reaction.

I wrote to them.

They wrote me back with a gluten free link that doesn't work

They told me they'll forward this on to someone else

I can't brush my teeth good and my mouth is disgusting yucky

He doesn't want me using mouthwash yet, just salt water

I feel filthy from head to toe

I didn't wash my hair cuz I didn't feel like it

I want some real food but can't have that yet

I got some broc cheese soup for lunch and it was good but I need a gallon of it

ok i'm done ranting now.

Poor baby! Most of the Advil/tylenol type stuff is gluten-free that I have found. Go take a shower & wash your head! (Say that in your Grandmothers voice!) It will improve your mood.

Can you eat little tiny bits that you don't need to chew yet? Hamburger chopped up really dinky in a little beef broth would probably hit the spot. Maybe a bakes potato with lots of butter or mixed with the mixer and milk & butter until creamy? An over ripe fresh peach mushed up? Making meself hungy. :P

The advice to take a nice warm shower is a good one. If you have any lavender scented soap, or any other favorite scent, it might make you feel better.

Do you have any cream of buckwheat on hand? That's a favorite comfort food of mine. Perhaps some scrambled eggs or some rice noodles broken up in small swallow whole bits and some nice chicken broth might be doable.

I hope your feeling better soon.

Connie dear.....I had only one molar pulled in January and thought that a pain in the butt as far as all the things you ranted about so I cannot imagine what pulling 6 teeth must be like. It was 6, wasn't it? :o My implant will be started in October so there's more fun coming for me down the road.

Take a shower and wash your hair so you'll feel cleaner and calmer. Even if you don't need the pain meds, maybe take one anyway for the hell of it as you shouldn't drink alcohol right now. ;) That always works for me! Eat your favorite mushy foods so you won't be hungry, which always makes people grumpy. Not much else that can be done...it's one of those pain in the arse times when you just have to get through it and try not to lose your mind. I am thinking of you and sending healing thoughts your way. Dental work is just no fun as it impacts what you can eat and that's huge. Feel free to rant away!

And tell me WHY I'm craving 3 Musketeers and Milky Ways and PB cups????

I have NEVER been a candy eater.

The good news is, I get off work in 16 minutes.

Oh, Connie - this too shall pass. I hope you can go home, maybe have a nice bath, and surround yourself with good things. Maybe watch something that makes you laugh?

You went to work like that? :P Supposedly, if we crave candy, we are actually craving fruit. OK, maybe...

Conniebky, I know EXACTLY how you feel! And, I appreciate the format in which you shared your frustration. To the point! No beating around the bush! Not writing, rewriting, editing and reediting til 3 hours pass and that frustrating energy is still swarming around because it hasn't been "released." Can you use Tom's toothpaste?

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
