Megan had a pretty good day today. We've been very busy packing. Our preacher came by and annointed her. My parents are here and Jarod's parents will meet us in Nashville tomorrow to help with Dr. appts. So far we're not in Ronald McDonald House, but hopefully we will tomorrow. Thanks to all of you for the constant prayers and support you have given. You are each a blessing to our family. Check the webpage for further updates!

Love and Hugs,

Tanya

In case you forgot she is putting updates on : Open Original Shared Link

Heres the lastest entry...

FRIDAY, JULY 21, 2006 01:25 PM, CDT

I just heard from Megan's surgeon's office and the time of her surgery has been changed to 7:45 am next Tues (7/25). I'm not sure what happened to the baby scheduled before her, but please remember that family in prayer too.

She has a preop appt. at 1:15 on Monday, so we'll spend the night in Nashville. I pray we get into Ronald McDonald House. It's such a wonderful resource. It's full of families in similar situations and all the love you can imagine.

Megan seems to feel better today than she's felt in a long time. I'm glad she's feeling more like playing.she's been using her dress to play Peek-a-Boo and it's just adorable.

Thanks for all the messages and phone calls. We appreciate all the love, prayers and concerns from all of you. Hugs to all!

UPDATE UPDATE UPADTE

I just got off the phone with TCA. I read her the gist of the posts her and she said your all very sweet. :D They are in a hotle beucase there is no room in the Ron Mcdonal house right now, so they are on a wiating list.

Megan is doing well, she has GAINED SOME WIEGHT EVEN!! :) She is 17 pounds, 13 oz!Theres a team of docs treating her for this and one of them is a bit concerned about one of the "stats" being at 70% but other then that it looks like a good for surgry first thing tommorow am. They need to be there at 6am for it. Her step mom will be staying with Cole in the hotel so that both Mom and Dad cna go in with Megan.

After the surgy Megan will be in Pedi Intensive Care for "couple" of weeks then moved to a regular room.

After the surgry she will call her sister, and her sister will update Megan's site with teh most current info, so make sure your watching that tommorow.

Thats everything I know at this time!

END UPDATE!

Well it's 12:13 on the 'big day' I pray your sleeping sounding while we're sending our love and prayers.

Went and spent some time with the 'stars' and now holding (after i finish typing) my mustard seed.

I too will set my alarm for your 6:00 am 'send off' into the journey toward good health and healing, little megan. You are one precious little child to us all.

love

Judy

      Bob red mill gluten free oats

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified...

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you...

      High TTG-IgG and Normal TTG-IgA

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease...

The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining it often results in nutritional deficiencies such as anemia. NCGS does not damage the small bowel lining so your history of anemia may suggest you have celiac disease as opposed to NCGS. But either way, a gluten-free diet is in order. NCGS can cause bodily damage in other ways, particularly to neurological systems.
