We lost the little bun in the oven :( We'll start trying again when the man gets home from his deployment .

I'm ok, just eating frosting out of the container LOL. It's hard but I am thankful for the gluten free junk food you guys have showed me XD.

Oh, I am so very sorry. Such a loss is always painful. I agree - there's nothing like sweets when you are hurting.

Aw, K8! I know from experience its hard, even early on. But I also know that a pregnancy can happen again, when the time is right.

Continue with the junk food!

Oh no! I'm so sorry for your loss. :( Sadly, I too know from experience how hard this is. Take care of yourself however you need too. Frosting is a good start.

Thanks for all the support! We were pretty disappointed. It was worse on me because I saw it yesterday in an ultrasound and then today it was just gone. I have some GREAT pain pills and my husband took it pretty well (although he wants to try again when he gets home and so do I and we know it's just our parent sides being impractical). Anyway, I was asking the doctor if maybe my Celiac had something ot do with it and he said that being diagnosed could have messed with my hormones a bit. My body had to make some adjustments. So I am staying off birth control to let my body adjust. I told my husband it's HIS turn to worry about birth control LOL.

Thank you all so much. I am sure once my percocet wears off and my Pamelas Ginger Cookies are gone I'm going to be pretty sad. TOmorrow I booked a massage and I'm going to spend the day pampering myself while my son is at school. It's messed up that I still will have symptoms of pregnancy for up to a week. ALso, I have a baby bump (it's tiny but there) and I get sad whenever I see it.

Hmm...I think it's time to move onto snickers LOL.

I'm so sorry! :( I've been there (3 times) and there's nothing that can make it better. You're doing the best thing you can by resting and pampering yourself.

When you get to feeling a little bit better you might consider checking out the book "Taking Charge of Your Fertility" for a source of birth control.

You are absolutely right. I would have been pregnant and/or delivering the baby alone, and since I got so sick with my son, my doctor told me being pregnant could kill me. My husband would have missed too much...and with the possibility of death thrown in there it's hard to not be slightly relieved. I am sad, he is sad, and we are coping, but we are also thankful that things happen for a reason.

I think the hardest part was telling people we lost it. I had to tell everyone that I was pregnant because I was SO sick. And I still have symptoms (although they are less now) so it's hard to explain that I might still be nauseous for a few days.

      Celiac getting dentures

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      Fighting for a name

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Celiac getting dentures

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.
