Jestgar Rising Star

Dude! Even my Safeway carries it!! OK, I live in snob-city, but still, I think it should be becoming more common.

today my math teacher abbreviated 'want to find' as WTF. All the little kids laughed.

I live in an area where people don't think twice about spending $7 for a pint of ice cream. So where is it?????

I left a note for the manager at one store. Will report back when the quarry has been sighted and apprehended.

How to make lemonade:

Take an accidentally-glutened-by-a-friend state, with headaches, body aches, insomnia, bad mood;

Combine with a trip over the hill for grocery shopping, running errands for Dh (returning something he bought by mistrake); and shopping for layers of clothing for upcoming cold morns in too-warm changing rooms;

Add inability to read Dh's handwriting on shopping list or comprehend what he was trying to say: "5mgs chillis x3" (purchase some greenred chillis on sale)

Combine with misreading his request for 3 cans of Staggs chilli which were not purchased :( .

Scrutinize pantry and find lectins all over the place - cans of tomatoes, kidney beans, canellini which need to be consumed (but not by me)

Get out slow cooker

Brown ground beef, onions, celery and place in slow cooker

Add two cans of kidney beans, 1 can cannellini beans, 1 can tomato puree, 1 can Italian tomatoes pureed, two chopped red chillis :D , chilli spice and various assorted other things

Cook on low for 8 hours. Thicken with cornstarch.

Voila! lemonade! :lol: Enough lemonade to quench (or inspire B) ) a great thirst.

Holy crap.. . . . .....was just sitting here posting, and happened to glance over at the big framed picture I have on the wall beside me.

      @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.

      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. 
    • trents
      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.
