If they could see my tummy grow from a size 2/3 jean to the way I look now in only 4-6 hrs.(very prego) they would believe.
I can only wear my night clothes at this point but it will go down. I have had some ask what did you have?

LOL This is what I am afraif of. My mom never taught me to cook as she never cooked. I learned everything I know from Betty Crocker lol and now most of my own after I married.
I have NEVER made bread or dough so I am horrified.
I am trying to find a good white and wheat bread. Just the basics for now

Yes at this time I just cant affored all new. So I guess my non sticks are a nono with no way of using them? I have a stainless one I guess will be mine and thank goodness Christmas is on its way as well as my Birthday ;/ guess we know what Mary gets lol..I am trying to male the entire house gluten free besides my families premade breads. This at the beginning is not as easy as I thought. Thank you again!!! I do appreciate it ALL more than you know!

This is where I am having all my problems, even when I was little ( the adult would say people in jail only ge bread and water) I would say I could live in jail lol as I am a bread addict. For real my fav snack was toast, didnt make a meal with out some sort of bread. Now I am trying to find a good bread recipie here so I can make my own as 5.00 for not even seems to be a quarter of a loaf is a bit much for me.
Ohhhhhh bread ; / I can live with out all the rest cakes pies cookies ect

I am wondering is there a way to clean my pot pans silverware and plates ect so they are gluten free and I dont have to go buy new ?

Nice to see I am not alone here!!! I was just diog. Celiac a few weeks ago and I am freaking out. We go to the in laws and it is full of gluten.
I dont want to be rude and ofcourse I want to eat, guess I could offer to make a fruit veggies tray.

You don't have IBS. You have celiac disease. Stop eating gluten and don't look back. You shouldn't need the miralax once your intestines start to heal. Did you eat gluten for a little while before you had your blood tests, or was that done gluten-free?
I went gluten free for 3 days after reading an article then 1 day before my doct. tested me I started eatting it.
So that test I had been back on it for almost 2 days. Still numbers were high, I have the # just didnt post all that ; )
Another question the holidays are coming and I dont want to be rude, do any of the people you know order "frozen" holidays meals like for one anywhere ; ( I am really not a happy girl about this lol

Welcome. You sure belong here. That's a strong celiac result! Let us know if/when you need help starting on the diet. Please jump feel free to ask questions.
Low total IgA means that you are IgA deficient. It is not a big deal as far as health, but it is a risk factor for celiac so it's not surprising. The confusing thing is that usually the IgA celiac tests don't come back positive when you are IgA deficient. Either you have a LOT of celiac antibodies, or there was a lab error on the total IgA. You can't know without retesting total IgA. It would be good to retest total IgA so you and your doctor know for sure whether to use the IgA or IgG version of the tests to follow your celiac disease (you will be retested to be sure the antibodies go away). If you are definitely IgA deficient, the IgG tests will be more senstive. If you're not IgA deficient (it was a lab error) you use the IgA versions because IgG is unreliable.
Is your doctor referring you for an endoscopy or are you going gluten-free right away?
I am Gluten free my doct advised it as I have been hosp. 2 times since 2007 and to the ER many times. I was always told I had IBS when I was little as well as many other problems ie : miagrains the worse!
I swell though, I go from a size 2/3 pants to looking 9 months pregnant at times. I lived on miralax stool softners and Docalax everyday that a GI in the hospital told me to do.
My family doc is the one I had to request this test from as someone told me to read up on it, we didnt understand the last part though. I am scared to go back to eatting it as I am now going back down. I swell with in hours no joke but it takes weeks to a month and a half to go back down ; (
