ARCHIVED Negative Enterolab Results, But Still Celiac?
elye posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I am interested to know how many out there have had negative test results with Enterolab for Fecal Antigliadin, Antitissue Transglutaminase IgA and Quantitative Microscopic Fecal Fat Score, and a consequential positive dietary response with the gluten-free diet. Said plainly: has anyone had a false negative with these Enterolab tests? I keep hearing about... -

OMG...... I simply must interject into our serious talk a quotation from the Ripper himself, who asked me something a few minutes ago, while we were discussing Good Friday and what it means.... I started to explain what happened Biblically on Good Friday and Easter Sunday. He interrupted me: "Mommy, wasn't Good Friday the day when Jesus crawled out... -

All right....first of all, whaddya mean, Ptaum, ya don't really write that well? It's a trick? It's a Phd English neighboUr rushing over and composing your threads? Of course you write well...in fact, probably superbly at times when your brain is completely clear--the times that you've said you're feeling crappy, the prose is terrific! Anyway, that's... -

Yes, true, Ursula. Just like most people, methinks...... This is so interesting....I remember thinking, "This can only be a good thing, a wheat shortage on our continent--perhaps the price will jump so high that processed food producers will start looking around for non-gluten alternatives with which to bulk up and bind their products". ... -

Good Friday morning, sillies!! The start of a long weekend. Weren't my kids just home for an unfathomable amount of days? Well, yes, March break was last week....and now four more days! I'm sending them out to shovel snow...it's melting quickly, but no matter--good exercise. Who on earth has ever heard of MILs igniting the desire... -

Morning, Amanda and Nikki! 'Tis the first day of spring. Not very spring-like, here....we have a LOT of snow to get rid of. But it is melting, and there are flood warnings being issued. If it's suddenly well above freezing for a few days, it could be a deluge (how many posts am I at, again?) Nikki, has any of your....taff?...no, tatt!....moved... -

Whoa, I hear ya.....but listen to this heavenly scenario: at our Shoppers' Drug Marts, we have a card that gets loaded with points after each purchase. After an accumulation of 35,000 points, one gets $100.00 worth of free merchandise. Well, I rack up those points in a couple of months, as I buy all of my shockingly expensive diabetes supplies there. Well... -

GARTH!! This is a FANTASTIC name for any animal....especially a cat, but would do nicely on a chihuahua or toy poodle... I LOVE it. Nikki! Wait, now..... Our size 10 is the same as the US 10, I am certain...and it is just an average, healthy size for a five-foot-five woman... Mygawd....you mean a British size 12 is for fatties (excuse... -

YES!! Great idea, Janet!! We'll send Bev out on the ice in full uniform, and sick'er on these HEINOUS girls. She'll be covered in padding and helmet--everyone will think she's a thirteen-year old bantam player. Bev, you can stab them with yer picc line!!

Yes, watermelon...much easier to take than what appeared in the poor chap's bed in the movie...(looking uncomfortably at Bev's av)..... So, guys, my dad is getting some tests run...an ultrasound, and I think a scope of some sort....there's a fair amount of blood in his urine..... He's not in any pain, though....resting, and waiting.... Stay tuned... -

Morning, Sillies! Don't see Amanda here, yet. Hope her day goes more smoothly than yesterday. Amanda, even though it wasn't you reduced to tears by SL (Stalkerlady), you are still having the stress of a negative, at times unhealthy work enviornment. You should not underrate yesterday's shenanigans as something that should be disregarded because you... -

I want a Weggies up here!! No fair.... I wonder why there aren't any in Canada? We have enough Walmarts.... Susie!! This sounds like good news, the discovery of a splinter in David's eye....Certanly this must be the cause of his eye problems. Question: How on earth could he have gotten a wooden splinter in his eye and not realized it? -
