    I've heard that arthritis might cause the ttg to go up, but i'm not sure if that is factual or not.

    When i was younger i always went barefoot. I learned how to run quickly across the dark road in 90 degree heat. When i moved, however, the area i lived in was really rocky so i couldn't really do it. Pasta tonight. Very little time on my hands.

    I can see when its first sprayed, but with dryed hairspray? not that i'm doubting ya or anything i've just never heard of it.
  4. shadowicewolf
    Dry hairspray floats? Never heard of that one. I wouldn't think it would sense its heavier when its dry from what i can tell. Did you by chance get some on your hands and somehow ingested it that way? That's the only way i can think of.

    You can be both allergic to wheat and have celiac at the same time

    1. Up to you. I didn't and i learned how to do so. 2. Have you tried cutting out soy or dairy? I'm thinking, however, the big issue here is the fact that you are getting cross contaminated. That could be the source of all your issues right there. 3. Funny thing about it is that symptoms do change over time. They can get worse or they can lessen. ...

    I would, at this point, suggest doing the biopsy. The thing about those blood tests is that one out of the panel can come back positive, and you can still have celiac. I'm suggesting the biopsy because of your family history plus the positive blood test. I'm not very knowledgeable with the DGP IGA, but i do know that it is quite sensitive for celiac...

    Look at it this way, there is only two more weeks to go. You've made it this far, you can do it!

    I looked at those. Looks like a great option for some. But other things as well, like salads, meats, and fruits. It doesn't have to be anything fancy, just an area that was dedicated to it i guess.
  10. shadowicewolf
    Yeah, thats what i thought

    Its in the 80s here with rain drizzles. We went from blizzarding one week, to rainy week, to summer stuff. Everything seems to have jumped a foot and my allergies are going crazy. Dinner? No clue.

    That would be nice actually. I don't see actual restaurants being able to do this, too many risks. However, if there was a good section of food in airports that would be nice.

    The itchy rash you had could have been DH, a skin condition that can be found with celiac (not all of us have it though) and that in and of itself is a diagnosis (if biopsied next to a breakout). Celiac can cause you to gain weight, just as it can cause weight loss. If you wish to be tested for it, then you have to stay on gluten, sadly. Then there...
  14. shadowicewolf
    The test tests for the antibodies produced by the consumption of gluten. So as long as you are on gluten it should be fine. As for the endoscopy, it should be the same as the blood tests.

    Peanut butter, apples, or corn tortillas. Cheese rice chex

    Mine showed up fine on the blood tests and the ultra sounds. No gallstones here.
  17. shadowicewolf
    Mine was right there with yours. The assistant surgeon said it looked dead when they took it out.
  18. shadowicewolf
    What about a strainer? I have one that is smaller and more of a scooper (kinda like a ladle) i use when i've only made a little bit.
  19. shadowicewolf
    Yep, we're covered under it. But like it was already said, its only really useful for school situations. For example, some colleges require their freshman (and sometimes sophomore) to live on campus in the dorms. With the disability act, that student can have accommodations in the school's cafeteria.

    Because they are smarter than your average dog?
  21. shadowicewolf
    I didn't mean literally. Should i have used "place" instead?

    The pain of a gallbladder is not fun. Mine was 5% when i had the HIDA scan done. I opted for the surgery because it was a constant pain. I could hardly stand to move. Heck, even the recovery from the surgery was no where near as bad (it still hurt) as the pain my gallbladder caused me. I would look into further testing for celiac. What tests did you...
  23. shadowicewolf
    If you are going to pick on poodles then you have to pick on the whole dog breed as they are not 'natural' either. Selective breeding bred for certain traits and not others. You could also throw house cats and horses into this generalization as well, because they too have undergone it. Could the cross breeding have caused more cases of celiac? Eh, I'm...
  24. shadowicewolf
    No, for celiac there is also the endoscopy where they do a biopsy and in addition to that there is a gene test, however, this one can't diagnosis by itself. There are no 'official' tests for an intolerance, outside of a diet change to see if that is whats causing it. As for labs, i don't know.
  25. shadowicewolf
    It wouldn't surprise me, to be honest. There is a lot about genetics that we do not know about. Who knows what other genes can trigger it?
