She is fine right now but she came out of room crying her sister said she swolled her sister ring. Her doctor wants her to get an x-ray of her tummy to make sure it come down like its suppose to. So i am gonna try to get someone to come get us since we dont have a car right now. Hopefully will get one this weekend.

I'm sure it will be fine. If the x-ray looks like one of those cool cartoon things with the perfect image of a ring in her tummy, be sure to get a copy to taunt her with when she's a teenager. :P

Unless it has/had some jagged edges...lots of water will help flush it :rolleyes: . Might be a loss for big sis. But maybe Santa can replace the ring. B)

Yeah its got heart shape on the top that why they want to check it out. Yeah that will be something from santa. :-)

It is utterly amazing what kids, and even adults, will swallow. My oldest son when he was almost 4 swallowed one of those glass stones that are often found in fish bowls. He ran into the bedroom panicking and clutching his neck. Wow, what a scare! He did end up coughing and swallowed it. I had to take him to the ED to make sure it would pass through. You could see it nicely in his stomach. About three days later I took him to work for another one and it was gone! There was no way I was going digging!

Aside from this incident, when he was around 2 we caught him putting small rocks up his nose. Days later he kept pointing to his nose and saying "ock." We thought he was remembering stuffing them up there. Well all the sudden he blew his nose on me and out comes a rock.

By far to me the funniest thing that happened was when he ended up with a big bruise on his forhead from hitting it on the toilet. He was around 4 or 5 and he was going to the bathroom. He was facing it when he bent down to pull up his pants and hit his head on the rim. He came out sobbing with a big goose egg. (I laughed about it afterwards to myself)

The stories are endless with this child. Funny, how this apple didn't fall to far from the tree. He gets definately gets his "gracefulness" from his mother.

Hope all passes well! :P

Wow, kids and the ingestion of things. . . ....

When my daughter was about two, we went to a family restaurant and indulged in their pasta (before the celiac was known). DD filled up on fettucine alfredo; she was quite the happy toddler with this.

On the way home she began fussing in her carseat. I turned around and she was whining and babbling, looking quite unhappy. As I was trying to comfort her, I noticed something tiny sticking out of her nose -- like some bright-coloured, dried snot. I grabbed a kleenex from my purse and picked at it. Then I grabbed it and pulled. And pulled. And pulled. A fettucine noodle, about nine inches long, emerged from her nostril.

Then she was good.

      This article does not address migraines at all.  Yes, red wine and sulfites are often mentioned in connection with migraine triggers. With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably. So, I think most of my migraines are tied to fluctuations vascular tension and blood flow to the brain. That's why the sumatriptan works so well. It is a vaso constrictor.

      Excessive dietary tyrosine can cause problems.  Everything in moderation.   Sulfites can also trigger migraines. Sulfites are found in fermented, pickled and aged foods, like cheese.  Sulfites cause a high histamine release.  High histamine levels are found in migraine.  Following a low histamine diet like the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet, helps immensely.    Sulfites and other migraine trigger foods can cause changes in the gut microbiome.  These bad bacteria can increase the incidence of migraines, increasing histamine and inflammation leading to increased gut permeability (leaky gut), SIBO, and higher systemic inflammation.   A Ketogenic diet can reduce the incidence of migraine.  A Paleo diet like the AIP diet, that restricts carbohydrates (like from starchy vegetables) becomes a ketogenic diet.  This diet also changes the microbiome, eliminating the bad bacteria and SIBO that cause an increase in histamine, inflammation and migraine.  Fewer bad bacteria reduces inflammation, lowers migraine frequency, and improves leaky gut. Since I started following the low histamine ketogenic AIP paleo diet, I rarely get migraine.  Yes, I do eat carbs occasionally now, rice or potato, but still no migraines.  Feed your body right, feed your intestinal bacteria right, you'll feel better.  Good intestinal bacteria actually make your mental health better, too.  I had to decide to change my diet drastically in order to feel better all the time, not just to satisfy my taste buds.  I chose to eat so I would feel better all the time.  I do like dark chocolate (a migraine trigger), but now I can indulge occasionally without a migraine after.   Microbiota alterations are related to migraine food triggers and inflammatory markers in chronic migraine patients with medication overuse headache https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11546420/

      Then we would need to cut out all meat and fish as they are richer sources of tyrosine than nuts and cheese. Something else about certain tyrosine rich foods must be the actual culprit.

      I agree that KAN-101 looks promising, and hope the fast track is approved. From our article below: "KAN-101 shows promise as an immune tolerance therapy aiming to retrain the immune system, potentially allowing safe gluten exposure in the future, but more clinical data is needed to confirm long-term effects."

      Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self. What you're describing sounds less like a purely psychological body dysmorphia and more like a distinct neurological event, likely triggered by the immense physical stress and inflammation that uncontrolled celiac disease can inflict on the entire body, including the nervous system. It makes complete sense that the specific sensory input—the pressure points of your elbows on your knees—created a temporary, distorted body map in your brain, and the fact that it ceased once you adopted a gluten-free diet is a crucial detail. Your intuition to document this is absolutely right; it's not "crazy" but rather a significant anecdotal data point that underscores the mysterious and far-reaching ways gluten can affect individuals. Your theory about sensory triggers from the feet for others is also a thoughtful insight, and sharing this story could indeed be validating for others who have had similar, unexplainable sensory disturbances, helping them feel less alone in their journey.
