We were not effected by the storm. But, we have suffered through many a hurricane, so I feel your pain. B) Wishing you a full and speedy recovery.

I have lived in Raleigh NC in the spring of 2006 and I believe if I am not mistaken there was like three "twisters" that touched down within like 50 miles of each other right around Raleigh. I drove that night had a time trying to keep my car on the road, whipping from one side of the road to the other.

We was unluckily on the road when this one hit as well, the wind with this storm was something else. One of the power poles near my home, was broke into three or four places with at least 50 years of line in the road, three trees laying with it. We hare still getting some pretty wicked storms form time to time since this original storm on the 29th, causing more damage. There was not that many houses that had damage to them, it was mainly what was outside, trees, power poles, lawn furniture, cars, and such.

I don't know if I could live where this happens often.

We had lots of people without power here in the DC area too. Several people killed by trees and downed electrical lines. Mostly it is back on now though, My sister in Ohio just got power back yesterday. And a co-worker in W. VA got it back yesterday too. Pretty bad storm for sure.

      Is it gluten?

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      Trip to Anaheim/Disney

      By Seaperky · Posted

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
