Twill be a 3 or 4 espresso day for me, so watch out!! :D

How about findin' the nearest anaesthetist? They must have all kinds of terrific cocktails from which to choose, hidden in their lab coat pockets..... and perhaps you'd get your choice of delivery systems. . . ...... :rolleyes::lol:

So I've just discovered that my technician, who is Vietnamese, refers to me as "Grandmother supervisor" when she's at home. :blink: :blink:

She assures me it's because 'grandmother' is the highest title of respect....

Having the in-laws over for supper. Sparkling grape juice for all (everybody is on some kind of "no-alcohol" type medication except hubby and he'll just have a beer). They'll probably leave close to 9.

Also doing X-mas presents as this has not happened yet with the in-laws.

Tomorrow, I'm chopping taking down the Christmas tree.

:lol: 'tis indeed.........PARTY ON PAD-TEA's PAGE, everyone, get OVER THERE!

and............a confession.

I ate gluten today, on purpose. Did not care any more. Was at my mom's, ate Lay's barbecue chips - with barley malt flour clearly listed on label. :(

Truly did not care.

this, after my cupcake binge..........made Betty Crock's chocolate g f chocolate cupcakes last night (unbelievably soft and DELISH)....decided I needed a vehicle for the Betty Crock's milk chocolate frosting I was eating from the can with a spoon.........so..........ate SEVEN cupcakes between last night and today:ph34r: (they were small)

then went to a friend's house who made made TWO POUNDS of their phamily's phamous phudge (white choco and regular, with HUGE walnuts) for my mom and me.......ate some of that.......took it to Janey's, where it is safe.........

but just no longer cared and missed the Lay's chips TOO MUCH that I hadn't had in four years.......so figured, WHY NOT???? Mood is already so morose.... ate many chips and.........we will see how things are tonight and tomorrow. Don't par-tick-yoo-lar-lee care.

:huh:

:unsure:

[don't expect no pity for self-induced glutening]

      New Guy Here...

      So, is their reasoning for doing another biopsy after you've been gluten free for awhile to get a comparison of before and after? In other words, there should be healing of the SB lining if you go gluten free for awhile if you have celiac disease?

      Pathology results - coeliac positive?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Tazzy11! Yes, your DGP-IGG test is positive. It means you could have celiac disease. But there are other possible causes for an elevated DGP-IGG count. I note that your TTG-IGA was not positive. The TTG-IGA is considered the chief celiac antibody test and a bit more reliable than the DGP-IGG. But let me ask you an important question. Prior to the blood draw, had you already begun to limit your intake of gluten? Also, were these the only two tests ordered to check for celiac disease? A physician should always order what we call the "total IGA" test (it goes by other names as well) to check for IGA deficiency. If you are IGA deficient, the scores for individual IGA celiac antibody tests, such as the TTG-IGA will be falsely low. By the way you spelled "coeliac" I judge you must be in the UK. There are several other antibody tests that can ordered when checking for celiac disease in order to get a more complete picture. Here is an article outlining the various tests:

      Pathology results - coeliac positive?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.    Per this article: They will likely schedule an endoscopy to see if you have celiac disease, and for this they would want you to continue eating gluten daily until that test is completed.

      Augmentin (amoxicillin) syrup

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
