    When we started we just swapped out gluten-free stuff with not gluten-free stuff. Be careful to use only WHEAT. She got better when you removed WHEAT AND BARELY AND RYE AND OATS. If you plan to challenge only do one at time. Use a wheat filled cookie instead of a gluten-free one, closer the match in texture/colore/etc the better. Gotta run boss just yelled...

    Just to show you I am either not a wacko, or at least not alone in my wackoness Open Original Shared Link

    My advice runs counter all that, and it works at least for me and those that I know who gave it a SERIOUS try. Base your diet around GOOD fat (ie from animals and plants and not labs), I am talking like 60% of your diet being fat, 20-30% being COMPLETE proteins, and balance in complex carbs. Drop all potatoes, sugar and simple carbs completely get your carbs...

    One thing to keep in mind, improvement can often be GRADUAL, such that you do not really notice it until you re-introduce gluten, then (all this is based on posters here) you feel like you got hit by a massive truck and thrown from the highway into a filthy muddy ditch in the pig pen. So when you do the trial keep in mind that part of it might have...

    You state you are having symptoms that interfere with your life? Right? You have no answers yet right? So ummm... why not try gluten-free and see if it helps? If it does, then great! If not, you keep looking.

    If you can... take the General Jackson dinner cruise. Last time I was there I was trying the gluten-free diet, and we called the Chef ahead of the cruise and he actually knew what "gluten free" meant. He even came out 1/2 through the meal to make sure all was well with it. I hope the same chef is still there, was a lot of fun. *disclaimer turned...

    Oh just for completeness the biopsy report: DUODENUM: Normal STOMACH: Antral mucosa with chronic gastritis with increased lamina propria and intraepithelial eosinphils; negative for helicobacter pylori (see comment) ESOPHAGUS: Normal COMMENT: An allergic etiology for his injury pattern should be considered.

    Time for the much over used response... "rather be a wise guy then a stupid one!"

    Well I donated it all to Locks of Love, so the mullet lives on! Somewhere...

    If you BOTHERED to read that little section of text under my avatar you would know EXACTLY where... but since your SO LAZY I will just let you wonder the rest of your life!

    I have in front of me his test results form when he was at the height of his sickness... GLIADIN IGG ABS 53.9 (<25 normal) GLIADIN IGA ABS 12.0 (<25 Normal) IGA QUANTITATIVE BLO 65 (12-139 Normal) TTG 0.1 (<7.0 normal) So as you can see, only the IGG was positive and that is the least accurate/specific of all the tests. I see now...

    Yep. I guess I never told that story here... fell on very hard times (lost my job, no medical insurance, etc..) was offered a job in Viriginia (I lived in TN) on the condition I cut my hair, at a place I WANTED to work, (Liberty University), with a bit low pay, but great perks/benies, so it came down to "have a place to live and eat" or "have long hair",...

    I will also add we are still watching just in case there is an extremely (for him) atypical very long delayed response. Remember all his responses previously were less then 4 hours, not measured weeks like it would have to be now. History is a great teacher, and his history says wheat was not the problem. but you do have to temper history with present...

    Check my profile. I do not need ANOTHER letter fro Scott crying about the great evil of my posting a link to photos... And I am NOT allowed to post links to information either, IF I created or participate on the site that hosts said information. Yes I have been told that by Scott too. Just let it go, its his house, his rules. For the most part the site...
  15. VydorScope
    Yes it is there, but I was referring to the extremely evil and unthinkable act of... do I dare even speak it? posting a link in response to a question! OMG HOW EVIL! LOL Sorry, sometimes I really need to just go to bed instead of check this thread
  16. VydorScope
    Nope, its in the forum rules and I have been personally contacted by Scott himself about it. No big deal to me. Its his house, I try to play by his rules no matter how silly.
  17. VydorScope
    I have been told not to post links to my personal site which is mostly just a collection of photos of me and my family. Very dangerous stuff! Must be outlawed! LOL I'll email it to you.
  18. VydorScope
    I think you should tell them that anyways, just to see thier reaction.
  19. VydorScope
    Considered entorlab, but they ONLY test IgA, and at the height of his sickness his IgA test was about as negative as you can get. So no real reason to think it would be any different now. The most objective test will come in a month or two my new insurance is in place and we can do IgG testing. Since we plan to keep him oat free, the IgG should be negative...

    My best guess is his poor beat to heck tummy just could not handle all that grease. He had not had McD's since going gluten-free (pretty sure that is right) because others had told me of them containing gluten (on this site) long before McD's changed their web site to state they were not gluten-free. Fell in to the trap of blaming everything on gluten thats...
  21. VydorScope
    YAY!!!
  22. VydorScope
    I never claimed he is cured. I want to be clear of that. There is currently no cure. I am stating that he never had it to begin with. It was oats all all along. If he had a clear positive on the biopsy and clear positive on the blood tests we would have never challenged it. But as my post says, he did not.
  23. VydorScope
    LOL Yea the bad part is some advice I gave out based on his reactions is now suspect
  24. VydorScope
    Was tTg the ONLY blood test? I believe IgA is considered to be the best indicator. Sorry I am not up enough on the full blood panel to give you much help on a specific interpretation.
  25. VydorScope
    I have seen it... but did not get skick form it. The foul smell and taste tipped me off to toss it out.
