Have not posted in a few days . . . I'm not phunny right now but am still reading along . . . have the most dreaded yearly apointment in an hour along wif the boob squeeze immediately after . . . hmmmm, wonder why I don't feel silly . . . :ph34r:

Hey, I've been reading about a new boobie cancer detection process called thermography. I guess it finds tumors before even mammograms can by measuring temperature fluctuations? They tried to use it in the 60's when the technology still sucked but now it works even better than mammograms, just most doctors won't suggest for fear of losing uninformed patients. Apparently it's less invasive than an ultrasound, and no squishing! That never made sense to me anyway. If you have a tumor, how is SQUISHING it going to help? Isn't that going to just spread it around?

No other options on the pap though.... sorry. Never hurt me to get a pap though, guess I'm lucky. Hope you went home and had some ice cream.

Hey Sillies . .. ...not all caught up but had to relate how stupid I've been.

Like everyone, I've read dozens of times about replacing pans etc.

When I first read it, so long ago, there was no problem as I didn't cook much before gluten-free and had gotten all new pans.

<ok duh where's the problem>

But when I moved in w/ John last year, he had his prev roommate's kitchen stuff, incl a lot of great pans - that guy was an actual trained chef at some Vermont culinary school.

Somehow it never struck me to keep using only my own. :duhface:

That's worth another :whata&^%$idiotface:

I still have those pans and have been using them.

What was I thinking?? <just NOT thinking?>

Could just a molecule here & there be keeping me down w/out showing glutenous symptoms??

If I'd had obvious glutening symptoms I would've tracked it down long ago.

I can't get my hopes up too high <again> but I sure won't use them again, at least for months (they ARE really nice) & we'll see if there's any difference.

Hey PHautaughmn!!!!!!!

Don't beat yourself up too much!...GADS..we've ALL done summat resulting in 'DOH' moments!! :rolleyes:

More later...off to Sven classes..haven't been ALL week as I found it preferable to sit indoors and eat chocolate :ph34r::lol:

flourgirl Apprentice

You really can't be too hard on yourselph Taawwmmm (Tickle-Tawwmm). First of all, one really wouldn't think that something like pans would be harboring the little monsters....but who knows? I think you're smart to put them aside for a while. If it makes a difference, you'll know it was at least one source. celiac disease is such a tricky, sneaky condition! For meself, I kept eliminating things, more and more, probably lots of "safe" things along with the poisonous snakes. Fact is...I'm just still sick, still "healing" if that's the word. I've become so paranoid about phood. I also am still searching for answers as I've not had a "healthy" day in more than 2 years...so I keep searching/waiting/searching/trying this and that. Wish the heck there was some group of TRUE REAL-LIFE "EXPERTS who really DID know the ins and outs....but like I said...such a sneaky, tricky snake we have!

Maybe I should have just left a private message instead of posting it here....but I know that we have a great group of understanding, caring fellow travelers here!

Hang in there Tawwmm, keep on keeping on :)

      Thank you for the update.  So interesting to know how things are changing, when I was diagnosed I had very similar blood results but still had to have the endoscopy.  Glad you know where you stand.  As your father has celiac disease you probably already know a lot about it, but do contact us if we can help further.

      But isn't it easier to just take a D3 supplement? Is the D light somehow a superior source? Links?
    • Scott Adams
      So the way it should be used is to take it before possible gluten exposure, so right before a meal at a restaurant take 1-2 capsules. Unfortunately taking it 1 hour or more after an exposure is too late.
    • Scott Adams
      Welcome to the forum, and thank you for sharing your detailed experience. It sounds like you’ve been through a lot over the past several months, and it’s understandable to feel frustrated after navigating unclear diagnoses and conflicting advice. Since you’ve found relief with a gluten- and corn-free diet, it might be worth continuing that approach for now, especially given your current commitments to culinary classes. You could consider working with a knowledgeable dietitian or a gastroenterologist who specializes in food intolerances and celiac disease to explore potential intolerances or other conditions without immediately reintroducing gluten. If confirming celiac disease is important for your long-term health management, you could plan for an endoscopy during a less busy period, ensuring you follow the gluten challenge protocol beforehand. In the meantime, prioritizing your well-being and avoiding known triggers seems like a practical step. Always advocate for yourself with doctors, and seek second opinions if needed—your health concerns are valid. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.
