Mornin Judith B) Hope you get to that meeting and have a great time!

Amanda--you sound swamped! :( Hope things settle down at work and I especially hope that John gets some answers as to what's been wrong. You're both in me thoughts :)

Pataughmn!!! SO good to see you, but wish things were going better for you, too. There are times when I wish I didn't have to eat at all--ugh :angry:

Lee-saugh--I get the BeFreeForMe's too :D

Sillies-

I know you are all skilled in the kitchen--well better than me.

Anyone have a recipe for homemade garlic herb sauce for pasta?? I am hoping to find something so I can make it for me and John,

BTW I am taking this gluten-free cooking class next week. I am excited.

Thought for the Day from BeFreeForME.com........

"Life expectancy would grow by leaps and bounds if green vegetables smelled as good as bacon."

- Doug Larson

American Columnist

:D

Ahhhhh..LUV IT!!! I'd be eating lots more veggies if that was the case...and would actually enjoy them in the process!!! When I was growing up (in a large family), bacon was a real treat. When mom fixed it we got generally 2 pieces of bacon....just not enough!!! When I moved out on my own, I had a real brainstorm....I could buy a pound of bacon and have as much as I wanted. SO....I proceeded to eat the whole dang thing...got really sick on it...and couldn't touch bacon for a loooooonggg time :P . I have, however, overcome this insanity and love bacon again!! In moderation, of course! :lol:

oooohhhh, Tickle Tawm.....you need some tickle therapy....I guess. Wish so much I had some answers for you! Food and eating become a real problem in this house. Telehubby loves to eat, and would love to have meals already planned and fixed for him....which I do a great deal of the time. The problem is that MOST of the time I could not care less IF I ate, much less what and when! Puts a real hamper of the planning part!

Am keeping us all in prayer for healing, for happy positive outlooks, for satisfaction in our daily lives. ;)

I have been so stressed this last hour and this just made me laugh! Can one also purchase dangling members on this Ebay function as well?

I heard someone in the office here mentioned someone have kidney stones and they were talking about the surgical removal and it was a male patient and they used the term shaft.....had me chuckle!

Oh. One can actually purchase a thing that is solely designed for shooting marshmallows?? Man, what I've missed. . . . . . ... ... :lol: When and at what does one shoot marshmallows? (besides at a parade, of course) Stealthfully, at neighboUrs? At the cat? Out in the rain?

I did not know such a thing existed, but I DO know that I should be procuring one for my dad as he sits in his hospital room.....what a terrific thing to behold, my dad blasting marshmallows at old patients passing by with their walkers, or at the uptight nurses who charge in to test his blood. This would motivate him to get up and over to his window.....start firing marshmallows at cars whizzing by, or orderlies out on their break. .. . . . ..

'Tis a fabulous idea for rehabilitation.....gonna check ebay.

Reminds of a bus ride. The island bus is small, and we all know each other. One evening this guy gets on the bus with a piece of PVC piping. Another guy looks at the pipe for a few minutes, then says: potato gun?

First guy says: yep.

Second guy thinks for a minute and says: wife outta town?

First guy grins and says: yep.

      Celiac or Addison's complications? Can someone share their experience?

      By trents · Posted

      @KRipple, thank you for the lab results from your husband's celiac disease blood antibody testing. The lab result you share would seem to be the tTG-IGA (Tissue Transglutaminase IGA) and the test result is in excess of 10x normal. This is significant as there is an increasing tendency for physicians to grant a celiac disease diagnosis on the basis of antibody testing alone when the scores on that particular test exceed 10x normal. This trend started in the UK during the COVID pandemic when there was tremendous pressure on the medical system over there and it has spread to the USA. The tTG-IGA is the centerpiece of celiac disease blood antibody testing. All this to say that some doctors would grant a celiac disease diagnosis on your husband's bloodwork alone and not feel a need to go forward with an endoscopy with biopsy. This is something you and your husband might wish to take up with his physicians. In view of his many health issues it might be wise to avoid any further damage to his small bowel lining by the continuing consumption of gluten and also to allow healing of such to progress. The lining of the small bowel is the place where essentially all of our nutrition is absorbed. This is why celiac disease when it is not addressed with a gluten free diet for many years typically results in additional health problems that are tied to nutritional deficiencies. The millions and millions of tiny finger-like projections that make up the nutrient absorbing surface of the small bowel lining are worn down by the constant inflammation from gluten consumption. In celiac disease, the immune system has been tricked into labeling gluten as an invader. As these finger-like projections are worn down, the efficiency of nutrient absorption becomes more and more compromised. We call this villous atrophy.

      By KRipple · Posted

      Thank you so much! And sorry for not responding sooner. I've been scouring the hospital records and can find nothing other than the following results (no lab info provided): Component Transglutaminase IgA   Normal Range: 0 - 15.0 U/mL >250.0 U/mL High   We live in Olympia, WA and I will be calling University of Washington Hospital - Roosevelt in Seattle first thing tomorrow. They seem to be the most knowledgeable about complex endocrine issues like APS 2 (and perhaps the dynamics of how APS 2 and Celiacs can affect each other). His diarrhea has not abated even without eating gluten, but that could be a presentation of either Celiac's or Addison's. So complicated. We don't have a date for endoscopy yet. I will let my husband know about resuming gluten.    Again, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with me!

      Hi Phosphone, did you ever figure out what elevated your DGP?  I am in the same boat.

      Scott makes a good point about the prednisone. It has a general suppressing effect on the immune system. Don't misunderstand me. In view of your husband's several autoimmune afflictions, it would seem to be an appropriate medication therapy but it will likely invalidate endoscopy/biopsy test results for celiac disease.
