That is wonderful news Celia. Don't feel bad as we have all been there and done that. And everyone is right - this is called a support group. You have a great doctor with a wonderful sense of humor.

How do I add my name under MY photo (he he)?

Hope everyone is doing better tonight.

I sure as heck would be phoning and blasting the water company for the pathetic way they attempted to inform everyone. :angry:

Hugs.

kAREN HOW SWEET OF YOU TO FIND THIS

I'VE BEEN SO WORRIED AABOUT YOU Celia...i'm so glad you have a great dr with a great sense of humor.

:D Hi All! Finally starting to feel human again. Getting knocked down so hard has shown me how far I had come.

Robbin, isn't this the truth..your words to me are so precious..i love you too and thank you for your kindness.

love you

Celia, post when your down...(ahem, Karen, ears burning????) You all were there when i needed help in the dark middle of nite with my celluitis I honestly couldn't have gotten through it without you and guess it's the first time in my entire life i ever said out loud (esp to people i haven't even met) " I'M SCARED TO DEATH THAT I WILL DIE IF I GO TO THE HOSPITAL"

tHAT WAS really hard for me to do but in a way doing it and putting it out there helped me cope and say..with your ideas..and support...It ain't gona happen..no way.

this SUPPORT group is the very best.

love and hugs

<------------------------------------------------------is my bratty cat lounging by the pool. He LOVES water. He is a big nerdball. One day this summer I had looked out to see what he was doing (he only gets let out every once in a while and I always keep my eye on him). Here he was......paws dangling in the pool. I snuck back inside grabbed the camera and snapped his picture. So that's him...........chillin at the pool.

He also spends a great deal of his time indoors in the bathtub or sink. When I take a bath in my big tub he is sittin on the edge trying to play in the water. When I get out, he gets in :blink: Such a wierdo.......

-Jessica :rolleyes:

OMG this is my mom's cat, she has three, and one HAS to play in the bathtub, the sink, is obsessed with water....ha ha ha ha I have never known of another cat this way! so crazy.....very cute..... :)

hi everybody....ate some nuggetts today :ph34r: But what could I do? my friends went out and brought them back, I simply could NOT be rude....ugh.....feeling slightly kicked in the gut tonight, but not too bad...

such a short post, gotta go....trying to catch up on too much - - very tired....must sleep.....

JUDY!!! good to SEE you finally! graet picture of your wonderful, smiling face....

And Armetta/mouse who is now Celia's former ostrich.....confusing but fantastic.....

Hi everyone, Hope everyone is feeling better. I keep thinking of Celia and that "tap water" issue. I sure hope she is ok. I think the osmosis water is what I may do but don't know what kind. Any suggestions? Do they take up a lot of space? :rolleyes:

Hi everyone......sad little dingo-girl meltdown....friends just left, it was so wonderful having them here for three nights...three extra people is crowded in my little house, but, the silence is screaming now...everything WOULD have been okay had we not seen R's brother at a yard sale this morning.....kind of funny, not one but TWO of R's ex-girlfriends coming up to him....so, he and I chatted for about 20 minutes, and he caught me up to date on everything....but now, just moping around here. *sniff* will the sadness over R. EVER fully go away? :(

God help me, I sent him a two-sentence email just now.....CISSIE - BRING YOUR GUN AND SHOOT ME......what was I thinking......blatant online confession.....dear gaaaaaaaaaawd..... :o

sorry this is so sad, you know how I am......it will get better, just a rough one today.....PLEASE say a collective prayer that I will fully recover from this man. There is a hug that only R. can provide, a lap and shoulder and strong comfy-bear warmth and solidness that is like no other, and I hate him for that - - he truly is a wonderful person, just, dysfunctional and non-committal.

gotta go .....this is another post that could be erased soon..... :ph34r::o

Susan, sounds like a sort of R-Glutening to me, a little cc from brother & ex-girlfriend, & then you went & took a bite of the real thing! Hope he's out of your system soon.

Judy, nice to see your radiant smile!

Celia, there was an E coli outbreak in the water of the town next door. What's going on here!!!???

Leah

Susan--I spent 1/2 hr trying to figure out about this "R" person...I've been bopping in and out of forums so not sure where to go to find the deleted post..now are there 2 guys involved here??? :blink::ph34r:

Is there the singer and then R or are they one in the same. I know your sad w/o your company but think that Leah really hit it here...

Judy, I'm with you, this R is new to me ...

Susan, there are some guys you never get over ... you just move on. You will love the guy you end up with, but it doesn't mean that you ever "got over" the guy you didn't ... you just move on. Sometimes I think email should be outlawed, it makes it too easy to say things you would never say in person!!!

I didn't really catch up, just read the last two pages ... going to check in on R'ville, then back to the crowd in the living room! I got a little overwhelmed and snuck back here for a while for some quiet time.

oh sweet friends, so sorry to cause confusion! Judy - remember, just PM me - - don't go back into any threads!!! no, R - well heck, that's ROBERT. the other one - JR - he's more of an...irritant. Bad news years ago but I am long over that one and was never truly in love.

Robert..... :( he's the one I've been whining about since I got on this forum in January. Gave up gluten adn R at about the same time, but he was still in my life, but he'd broken up wtih me a couple of weeks before dx. then....still off gluten....back onto robert. :ph34r: NOT GOOD. gave up Robert and my wine-drinking for good about 9 or 10 ?? weeks ago. feels like an eternity. Most days I'm okay....but not always. I just wonder if I"m ever NOT going to be in love with him? :(

DEAR GAAAAAAAAAAWED Cecile, don't you EVER feel bad again for your mucus-y days on here....I am the queen of baring the soul and sniveling whining.....aghhhhhhhhhhh :o

Carla, thank you for your wise words. I just want to MOVE ON......and today was a snag. a cc, as Leah so cleverly put it. :)

OMG - - OMG - - - OMG - - - good thing he's so freaking busy, a single parent with his own business and doens't care or have time to read any of this....OMG what if other people I know are reading this...ha ha ha ha ha ha doesn't matter, if they've known me for more than a month they'd know this anyway :lol::lol::lol:

Just bought tires. how heinous is that? wanted to drive to the mountains, and realized that I seriously could not. Such an annoying expense. Think of all the FUN things you could buy with $500??? :angry:

thank you all for your support......I want to move on....I want to move on...I WANT TO MOVE ON...... :(

Hi, Susan, just parachuting in here again to check on everyone. The right guy for you will NOT be dysfunctional, no matter how great he hugs. Sap that I am, I believe that true love ALWAYS comes with great hugs--but without dysfunctionality (is that even a word?).

good googly moogly... :ph34r::lol::lol:

YAAAAAAAAH! It has been driving me UP THE WALL trying to remember where "Good googly moogly" comes from, but I finally remembered! It's from a Nick Jr. cartoon that was on about 5 or 6 years ago called "Maggie and the Ferocious Beast."

I can finally sleep now....

This is so funny, Fiddle--last night my husband and I were watching "Dining On Asphalt" on the Food Network. Alton Brown said "Good googly moogly" when talking about a gigantic burger!

I didn't know about the cartoon, though--I've only heard it on here from Celia :D

When I eat certain food like dairy or soy my face gets so hot and I feel flush and my heart rate shoot’s up. And sometimes my bottom lip swells or I get hives somewhere. This started happening after I had a really bad case of Covid.  Before that I was able to eat all those things (minus gluten) I was diagnosed with celiac way before I had Covid.  Hmm, not sure really. I may look for a different allergist my current one told me to take Zyrtec and gave me an epi pen.

      9 Year Old test results - help interpret

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Gill.brittany8! There are two main genes that have been identified as creating potential for developing celiac disease, HLDQ2 and HLDQ8. Your daughter has one of them. So, she possesses genetic the potential to develop celiac disease. About 40% of the general population carries one or both of these genes but only about 1% of the general population develops celiac disease. It takes both the genetic potential and some kind of triggering stress factor (e.g., a viral infection or another prolonged health problem or an environmental factor) to "turn on" the gene or genes. Unfortunately, your daughter's doctor ordered a very minimal celiac antibody panel, the tTG-IGA and total IGA. Total IGA is not even a test per celiac disease per se but is a check for IGA deficiency. If the person being checked for celiac disease is IGA deficient, then the scores for individual IGA tests (such as the tTG-IGA) will be abnormally low and false negatives can often be the result. However, your daughter's total IGA score shows she is not IGA deficient. You should consider asking our physician for a more complete celiac panel including DGP-IGA, TTG_IGG and DGP-IGG. If she had been avoiding gluten that can also create false negative test results as valid antibody testing requires having been consuming generous amounts of gluten for weeks leading up to the blood draw. Do you know if the GI doc who did the upper GI took biopsies of the duodenum and the duodenum bulb to check for the damage to the small bowel lining caused by celiac disease? Having said all that, her standard blood work shows evidence of possible celiac disease because of an elevated liver enzyme (Alkaline Phosphatase) and low values for hemoglobin.

      Hi everyone  After years of stomach issues being ignored by doctors, my 9 y/o daughter finally had an upper endoscopy which showed a ton of stomach inflammation. The GI doctor ordered some bloodwork and I’m attaching the results here. Part will be from the CBC and the other is celiac specific. I’m not sure what’s relevant so I’m just including extra information just in case.   The results are confusing because they say “No serological evidence of celiac disease. tTG IgA may normalize in individuals with celiac disease who maintain a gluten-free diet. Consider HLA DQ2 and DQ8 testing to rule out celiac disease.” But just a few lines down, it says DQ2 positive. Can someone help make sense of this? Thanks so much.  result images here: https://ibb.co/WFkF0fm https://ibb.co/kHvX7pC https://ibb.co/crhYp2h https://ibb.co/fGYFygQ

      Those are great points and some follow up thoughts and ideas. I think you're both stating the same thing in two different ways, but I appreciate the "accuracy" of what you're getting to.   1. Are you both stating that the "too salty of a taste" could be triggered by a histamine reaction, and the flavor is coming from the electrolytes? If that is the case, wouldn't the individuals mouth always be salty during a "Glutening" situation, or are we saying that the person could get "use to the flavor" until introducing food or beverage and that could be enough to "stir the pot" and notice the salty flavor? 2. To push back on "#1": If that were true anyone with issues of histamine releasing foods/treatments would experience the same thing. Also, I did not experience a situation where most beverages were "too salty". Thoughts?
