ARCHIVED Going Back To Gi, Negative Blood Results, Is This It?
tom replied to confused123's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
It is a good next step to let him see what's going on in there. I wouldn't hesitate on an endoscopy at all if I were you. -
ARCHIVED Starting 4Th Week Gluten-Free . . .
tom replied to DieWalkure's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Sounds like you really can't be more thorough than you already are, so congrats on that. What a PITA that mystery glutenings can still happen, but rest assured you're not the only one. I've seen plenty of threads started as a "what of these things could've glutened me" question. Sometimes a likely culprit is found & sometimes not. One that comes to... -
ARCHIVED Can Eating Nuts Make Your Symptoms Worse?

The pieces can be hard on diverticulitis, which I wouldn't exactly call common for celiacs, but it's certainly not unheard of. Open Original Shared Link -
ARCHIVED gluten-free Bagels, Soy-Free, Canola-Free: Do They Even Exist?
tom replied to ButterflyChaser's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Well it was the 'conventional wisdom' in the mid 1960s & but yes CRAZY & it's persisted enough that I saw someone RECENTLY quote a Dr saying so. Mine actually was sort of dormant for decades in that it wasn't debilitating or even noticeable in anything but hindsight, though of course I'd've been better off not going back on gluten when I turned... -
ARCHIVED gluten-free Bagels, Soy-Free, Canola-Free: Do They Even Exist?
tom replied to ButterflyChaser's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Arrrgh I thought I had a YES, but it appears Udi's has changed the Plain Bagel for good. They changed from a Plain that was using sunflower oil to the new "soft&chewy" version which lists "veg oil: canola or blahblah". I can't have canola w/out getting dizzy, though I'm not sure what would happen if I had a lot, or even a little daily or frequently... -

ARCHIVED Sudden Drop In Alt Level After Eliminating Gluten And Dairy
tom replied to QP1's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
And it's probably awesome to note that, too! Sorry I don't really know about LF tests, but it's possible that 10 pts doesn't mean that much if the test's precision/repeatability isn't very high. That said . .. .it sure seems like a 10 pt drop from starting gluten-free/df should be significant. Happy gluten-free Thxgvg! -

Who wouldn't want the power to proclaim? Fear not! You, MW, could mandate replacement of "yet" w/ "yet(i)" heretofore, if you wish. (Hehe, almost missed that) Just can't get too cocky bout it or The People might churn 100 pages in 2 days. ExQueen Pseuzee's "whot . ..only 4 pages to read?" when it was 104 topped it off.

Speaking of safety . . ...I just signed off a new req for black-belted security. Dunno wth last administration was up to, but the head of security is saying that w/ some new 'seniority by height' rule, the union won't allow a new addition over 5 feet tall.

ARCHIVED Testing--& Gluten In Diet
tom replied to raso's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I know that saying "life worth living" isn't hyperbole at all - many here were impacted to that magnitude by gluten, myself included. You may as well get tested asap, imho. Even if it's negative you might want to try all-out 100% gluten-free anyway to know more surely - lab results don't mean as much as 'quality of life' improvements you'd get if gluten... -
