I Just Need To Whine A Little Bit

We have been waiting for this weekend for ages. Our anniversary was last month and we are finally getting to celebrate with a spa day and a fancy meal out on Monday. I talked to the chef at the spa restaurant who seems to understand the gluten issue and promised to provide me a wonderful and safe meal, we have overnight childcare for the kids and I can't wait.

Except my hubby was hurt at work today and now we can't go. We also can't build our chicken coop this weekend or the kids' tree fort and I'm feeling pouty about the whole thing. He's going to be fine thankfully, he had some stitches in his leg and he's on antibiotics because there was exposed bone (ick!) so the massages and mineral soaks we had booked are out.

Plus I got glutened yesterday from some unknown source. Could have been the Butterfinger (supposed to be gluten-free), the Kosy Shack chocolate pudding (supposed to be gluten-free), the Kirkland bacon (looked fine on the ingredients) or the McCain hashbrowns (supposed to be gluten-free)... or some other mysterious source like a kitchen pot or chicken feed.

Blah. I'm feeling cranky and sad.

Bit extreme just to get out of a spa weekend and chores! :)

I would send J & M to build the fort but they still have to finish school before they move in with you.

Yes, we can reschedule but I don't want to. I want to go on Monday. :angry: I'll get over it though, I'm just disappointed because it's been almost a year since we got away from the kids for a night. Something bad always happens. We went away for 2 nights last August for my birthday and I came down with Meningitis and spent 2 weeks in the hospital and another month at home learning to walk again and wwaiting for my hearing to return.

Well our two oldest girls are going home to Vietnam for July and August so we'll have room for two more then. Send them up!

Funny how that conveys exactly how you feel. I can see the grouchy pout on your face and you stamping your feet as you say it.

      False tTG3 Test?

      Thanks! I don't think it was a total IGA test, it was called "Array 3X - Wheat/Gluten Proteome Reactivity & Autoimmunity" and it tested a bunch of wheat proteins and transglutaminase for both IgG and IGAs.

      False tTG3 Test?

      Welcome to the forum, @SB04! Let's cut to the chase. Did they run a tTG-IGA and a total IGA? Total IGA goes by many names but it checks for IGA deficiency. If you are IGA deficient, IGA test scores will be artificially low and it can result in false negatives. The tTG-IGA is the centerpiece of celiac disease antibody testing. Dermatitis herpetiformis...

      False tTG3 Test?

      Hi all, about a year ago I had some blood tests done through a naturopath because I had constant hives and no idea why. They would go away for a few days with an antihistamine medicine but always come right back. Anyways, she did an igg test (which i now know is terribly unreliable) and it was pointing to gluten sensitivity. there was another test...

      Does anyone here also have Afib

      I know I'm late to the party, but I thought these articles are very interesting. Doctors don't recognize vitamin deficiency symptoms. Thiamine deficiency is linked to Long haulers syndrome, too. I had palpitations that only resolved with thiamine Vitamin B 1 supplementation. Association of vitamin B1 with cardiovascular diseases...

      Curious if I should quit my job

      @ohmichael, Have you tried contacting your state's Employment Services? There should be job opportunities and training programs especially for previous service members and veterans. Look into trade schools. Some offer training programs which provide scholarships and housing, and possible employment after completion. Some scholarships are funded...

If you are IGA deficient, IGA test scores will be artificially low and it can result in false negatives. The tTG-IGA is the centerpiece of celiac disease antibody testing.  Dermatitis herpetiformis is the epidermal expression of celiac disease. Most who have dermatitis herpetiformis also have damage happening to the small bowel lining as well but a small percentage do not. But dermatitis herpetiformis has a characteristic appearance to it, with the rash bumps having pustules in the center. It is also accompanied by a very uncomfortable itch. From...

They would go away for a few days with an antihistamine medicine but always come right back. Anyways, she did an igg test (which i now know is terribly unreliable) and it was pointing to gluten sensitivity. there was another test too, that tested for wheat iggs, igas and several other things, among which were Transglutaminases. The only one that came up as high for me was the tTG3 igg result, which shows an autoimmune response in the skin, commonly dermatitis herpetiformis in celiac patients. I was told it was gluten causing it but not celiac. Fast forward to now, I...

      @ohmichael, Have you tried contacting your state's Employment Services?   There should be job opportunities and training programs especially for previous service members and veterans.   Look into trade schools.  Some offer training programs which provide scholarships and housing, and possible employment after completion.  Some scholarships are funded by employers looking for specifically trained employees. Choose a career path in something you enjoy doing.   I agree with @Scott Adams.  Play your cards close to your chest.  Get your ducks in a row before discussing leaving the gluten aisle where you work now.  Managers can and will fire you really easily, like Scott...
