ARCHIVED Let The Games Begin.... (long)
Jestgar replied to ohsotired's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
SLAP!! Well the rule here is "We believe you, so you have to believe yourself" It's so funny how connecting illness to food is hard for people (other people, I mean, the ones that don't get sick from it). I wonder if its some throw back to caveman days where survival depended on body awareness, and denying someone else was sick from the only... -

well, yah, but ya gotta eeeaase 'em into these things, start out small, with words that take you a minute to remember what they mean, like scrotum. then go for the bigger, more intimidating words, like penis, and ironing, and then, when they've gotten accustomed to those things, theeennn you squeeze out the anal glands. -

Yeah, well if you're getting advice from Carla, remember, she's got like, 15 kids or sumpin'. You'll need that addition, and maybe the car to escape in. Which reminds me of a funny story. I used to work with this really 'macho' guy, who had a stay-at-home wife who raised their three boys. One Monday he came in to work and said "my wife went visit... -
ARCHIVED Soy And Gluten
Jestgar replied to ChristinaKs's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Soy has nothing to do with gluten, but it is a big, hard to digest protein and some people find it makes them feel bad when they eat it. If you've eliminated gluten, and still don't feel well, you can consider cutting out milk and/or soy, otherwise, don't worry about it. -

ARCHIVED Chronic Dehydration - Worse After Glutened.
Jestgar replied to Woolygimp's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Not true. IVs are salt water. Your cells have pumps that run ions (sodium, potassium, etc) in and out of your cells to maintain a balance. I believe this is how cholera kills - it stops the sodium channels from working. The need for salt was (is?) also one of the driving forces behind cannibalism in the innards of Africa. Populations far from the coast... -

ARCHIVED Codeine/hydrocodon Reactions
Jestgar replied to jewlesD's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Not sure what you mean by awful. Codeine and its derivatives make me vomit within a few minute of taking them. Morphine causes internal hives. Vicodin works for me. -
ARCHIVED Chronic Dehydration - Worse After Glutened.
Jestgar replied to Woolygimp's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
So I actually spent some time thinking about this (I know, my lack of life is showing). It seems to me, that, unless you are pooping water, your body is absorbing it. If that's the case, you might want to revisit the electrolyte thing. Gatorade doesn't seem like the best choice because of all the chemicals, so you might want to consider mineral water... -

Although I realized I wouldn't object if I were allowed to end every post with something like "There are no omnipotent beings spending every moment of their existence focusing on just you, so maybe you should take some time to learn to take care of yourself." I mean, just look at Judy's flowers - omnipotent beings clearly have better things to do than... -

ARCHIVED Gene Test Results
Jestgar replied to mom2lucas's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
The "Celiac genes" are known to code for a protein that can accidentally learn to recognize parts of your intestine as a foreign invader, and start attacking it. Does this mean this will always happen if you have these genes? No. Does this mean that other proteins can't accidentally learn the same thing? No. The gene test is interesting, but not informative... -
ARCHIVED Genetic Testing For Celiac - How Accurate + Questions
Jestgar replied to marie06's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
The gene they test for is associated with celiac disease, not causative. It is also carried by about 1/3 of the population, so you have a 30% chance of carrying the gene whether or not you have celiac disease. The test is interesting, but not informative. You may never get a positive lab test result. Many people don't. They accept their own dietary... -
