    Welcome to the thread Peacenlove. Quite a few on this thread have been diagnosed or suspect lyme disease but not everyone. This thread has mainly turned into a place to bounce around ideas for people who haven't gotten completely better on the gluten free diet. It's been quiet lately, but we hope you'll check in and join whatever discussion you...

    Donna, I'm glad to read that you are feeling better aside from your dairy mini excursion. I hope that doesn't leave you down too much. Miamia, Hoping you will post about your appointment. We had a quiet day yesterday with just us and leftovers (aside from making pie). I didn't use evap. milk. Used coconut milk and water (should...

    Rachel, Glad that the food is going well overall so far. Your brother....

    We'll be waiting for your report.

    Miamia, Looking forward to hearing about your appointment tomorrow. My son and daughter in law got me some sudoku books! I was surprised....they figured I would like something like that. We had a good day yesterday visiting with all the boys. One of them brought his girlfriend whom we didn't know was coming, so we didn't have a gift for her...

    You are getting closer to a firm diagnosis. Lyme just sounds so plausible with your test results even though they were't strong positive. Hugs.....next year will be a year of more answers and starting down the road to recovery. I'll be waiting to hear about your test results.

    Rinne, Hope you enjoyed the nuts. You deserve it! Rachel and Donna, I love pumpkin pies too! I hope you both enjoy them and don't get sick.

    I'm sorry about your vitamins Tiffany. I use Freeda prenatals. They have a whole range of different vitamins.

    How long do you have to be on this stuff? Was it two weeks? Will it take care of the sinus/ear infection? I used to get sinus infections every year and got to the point where I'd call the clinic for a prescription since one was coming on. They wanted to see me the first time and didn't notice anything but took an x-ray or something and found that...

    Donna, Why do I suspect the meds you are taking are bringing you down......especially when you felt better before your next dose......could be the meds wearing off. Hope you get this figured out real soon.

    Happy Birthday Judy!!! I hope you had a great day! Another reason you are so special......I have a birthday girl today too. She's in my avatar. Love you.

    Laura, Yea!!!! You found a good doctor! I'm glad she/he is being so thorough. 11 vials.......I don't know how you guys handle all the blood draws. I think the most I've ever had is 4-6. For those of you who don't go on D/S.....Robbin's last appointment was a disappointment. I'm not clear on whether she's been able to be tested for lyme or not...

    Laura, Thanks for posting your results. So, according to what Rachel said you have bacteria but not necessarily lyme (although it could be). That's about as confusing as mud isn't it? Very curious as to what your doctor said.......

    Get thee to the store! If you haven't left yet.

    Judy, I'm thinking anyone can do star ratings. For instance, go to Patti's profile and put your cursor on the fifth star and click. You should get a message that it's updating (or some such thing). Patti already has five stars but you can see if it will work.

    Rachel, Thanks for always taking the time to post about your appointments. I for one really appreciate it and enjoy reading about them.....and/or talking to you. I so excited about all this for you! Laura, I'll be waiting for you to post about your appointment tomorrow. Hopefully this will be one of the good doctors.

    To repeat Carla and Donna.....good girl! Uh oh. You win some and you lose some and then you lose some more as far as your body retaliating. I hope you are feeling better now.

    Jerry, I have my numbers posted in my sig. My family tested low (I had been very gluten light for 1 1/2 months before enterolab. My husband is the only one who didn't test positive but he has 2 celiac genes. He scored a 4 I think. We all have celiac genes so we went gluten free before further damage was done.
  19. AndreaB
    I'm glad you checked in. I was wondering if you had power.....I assume you do if you posted.
  20. AndreaB
    Jerry, I'm not sure where the numbers fall for those who would test positive by blood and how that would correlate to the intestinal tract. If you didn't have gene testing done you don't know if you have a celiac gene but you already have an autoimmune response going on so it is still best to leave gluten behind. All of my family's numbers were low...

    Oops, quoted the wrong quote......I was going to say maybe you could live in Australia during our winter and in California during our summer.
  22. AndreaB
    I hear you!
  23. AndreaB
    You are not a dork. Those types of things keep your brain in good working order. We need a challenge of some sort for brain health. Carla, That does not sound good. I hope this herxing (or whatever it is) calms down soon. Good plan to take it easy for Christmas. Good idea for you to either have extra help or be content with the...
  24. AndreaB
    That's what we do. Hope you have a good holiday weekend......that goes for everyone.

    We discovered this game on Chevroncars.com/games/ I love puzzle type stuff! Those marshmellows to sound good. Wonder if I'd still think so after I saw the ingredients.....definately better than store bought I bet. You'll get there....give it time Rachel. Two drops is a start for now. We already think your...
