Soooo tired! Bro & wife are coming in from Bend, OR for the week. The only time we can see them is tomorrow at lunch. So everyoneis coming here! Making taco type stuff. Also, trying to get stuff started for hub's office party Wed. Went to grocery ( busy place), made 2 kinds of truffles, cookies for tomorrow, taco hamburger meat, hub grilled chicken for tacos, made peanut brittle, twice. The first time, poured the hot brittle on wax paper thinking it would be easy to pull off. Wrong! Paper stuck to it! Cooling the second batch on the porch so I can break it up tonight. ZZZZZ....

M woke up this early this am with barfage. Probably stomach virus. Wish I could blame gluten but I can't. So no one is coming over. I have 3 lbs of cooked taco hamburger meat and 5 of grilled chicken, 48 corn tortillas, 54 hard tao shells, 3 doz pumpkin spice cookies, 3 doz pb choc chip cookies, batch of peanut brittle, 2 large bags of chips, 3 red peppers, 2 heads of lettuce, 3 jars of salsa.

Fortunately, most will keep or freeze. Just running out of freezer space.

J has been Chloraxing.

I'm thinking " freezer" & " Xmas dinner"

Poor kid. Can't stop with the dry vomiting. He hasn't had anything in his stomach all day except the tiny bit of water from rinsing his mouth.

Crossing fingers. Spillage seems to have stopped. Gave him Enterol and it seems to be soothing. He feels like doing homework. :unsure: Maybe he is seriously ill?

Low-eee! Well, at least your GI spent some time with you, and has been listening. :) Hope the meds help! So often, IBS is a symptom of celiac. Now, those fibRE meds are all gluten-free, right??

Yay, Jyessss! Must have missed this, though - - what part are you playing?

This is going viral...so thrilled. The best flash mob I have yet seen - - happened in Welland, Ontario, a couple of weeks ago:

Just checked the medicine list and also the manufacturer's website and Fiber Con is gluten-free.

Opening night went fabulously. Full house. Excited audience. Great breakfast afterwards. Only eight more shows to go.

What play is it and what is your role? Hope BE is attending and presenting you with bouquets of roses. rolleyes.gif

So sorry to hear about M. If Tony ever barfs up something he'll never eat that food again. Even at 19. Sending healing hugs and a big bottle of Clorox your way.

P.S. glad you can freeze most of it!

Well, the tale of spillage continues. This may not be news at your house, but no one gets sick, almost never, at our house. He was feeling better, starting having a couple of sips of Gatorade and water. I went to J's football banquet. Got a pitiful text that he barfed. Said he didn't need me, he was going to sleep. He is dehydrated so he has a headache but a few sips of water make him feel like vomiting. He is trying to sleep with a water bottle for whenever he can sip. Poor kid. Hope he is drinking in the am. He's bigger than me so I can't carry him to the car.

Hope no one else gets sick as Hub's office party at our house is Wed. <_<

Yep--our phamily too. With me it was rice (of all things), Mark--german chocolate cake, and our son swears he will never again eat apple pie.

I eat rice now, but from 5th grade till I was probably in my early 20's I wouldn't go near it.

Poor guy. I hope he's over it soon.

Opening weekend went well. I'm running the light board for sound of music, so not in the play. Screwed up the wedding spotlight today :( but managed to not put everyone in the dark in my panic. :P

BE and his daughter are coming to the show next weekend although he took me out to dinner Friday before the show and I showed him the little light booth where I have to climb up the bunk bed ladder onto the platform and sit and do my homework while listening for cues. He climbed up inside and was greatly entertained by the graffiti on the walls.

Last full week of school. Just have to manage to get through the last homework.

O, Kareng I'm SO sorry he's not feeling better. I think I hate barfing more than D (although they do run neck and neck). Does ginger ale help?

I just finished washing the sheets and towels from my brother and SIL's visit. We did an early Christmas exchange and put up the (fake) tree. We didn't decorate it. Klark and I are going to do that tonight. We also lit the Chanukah candles and my brother and I couldn't remember the prayer to save our lives. Went to see Due Date. I highly recommend it (especially if you feel the way I do about Robert Downey Jr. - he's my Russell Brand).

I had to take real pain killers to be able to participate in any activities but it was worth it. Now I'm back to letting the pain rule. Don't want to get hooked on prescription meds (the oxy's). Had some left from my old GI.

The girl I'm tutoring is due in about a half hour. I don't think her mother is doing her a service by home schooling. All I can do is try to do my best and undo some of the things her mom taught her out of order. Still in the testing phase. I have to get her to the point where she knows the sight words (kindergarten and up). I had thought about taking an online course for a certificate program in dyslexia but it costs $440 and i just don't know that I can afford it. The program would guide me but my bank account is screaming "don't do it!!!"

Hope M is feeling better when I check back online.

That scared him! He has been sucking on ice and just peed to prove he is Ok.

Thanks for your sympathy.

Good idea. Right now he has graduated to 6 Rice Chex and some apple juice (in a dark cup with a lid and a straw so he doesn't know how much is in it). I'm tricky! ;)

      Diabetic 2

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Hello, @Lightingthunder2, I understand how confusing Celiac can be, especially when one develops other health problems. I developed Type Two Diabetes and was prescribed Metformin.  I started feeling weak and tired.  I searched for answers using my nutrition and microbiology education to find answers.   I learned that Metformin can cause Thiamin Vitamin B1 deficiency.  Metformin blocks the thiamin transporters that allow thiamin to enter cells.   Keep in mind that Celiac Disease causes poor absorption of all nutrients, vitamins and minerals that our bodies require daily to live.  Thiamin can be rapidly depleted because it cannot be stored for very long (3 - 21 days).  With Metformin blocking entry into cells and malabsorption from celiac disease, thiamine deficiency can set in quickly.  The early symptoms of thiamine insufficiency can be vague and easily be attributed to other things, like a bad day at work, and doctors can easily overlook the symptoms.  Doctors aren't well educated in nutritional deficiencies.  My doctors were clueless.   I took thiamin in the form Benfotiamine and followed the Autoimmune Paleo diet (developed by Dr. Sarah Ballentyne, a Celiac herself).  Benfotiamine has been shown to promote intestinal healing.  The Paleo diet cuts out most high carbohydrate foods.  This helps me keep my blood glucose levels under control without Metformin or other medications.  Now, I do add in occasionally rice or potatoes.  I avoid most gluten free processed foods since they are not enriched with vitamins like gluten containing products and are filled with saturated fats.  I do not take any pharmaceuticals for high blood glucose.  I control my type two diabetes with diet, and take Benfotiamine. Thiamine deficiency is found in both Type One and Type Two Diabetes.  Thiamin is not properly reabsorbed in the kidneys in both types.  Since thiamin is water soluble, it is lost easily in urine.  Type One Diabetes has a genetic component which involves thiamine transporters in cells not functioning properly due to faulty genetic information.  Type Two Diabetes may result as a consequence of thiamine insufficiency.  Ninety-eight percent of diabetics in both types are Thiamin deficient.   Discuss with your doctor and Nutrutionist any dietary changes and supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals while you are healing. Here are some articles I found helpful.  Thiamine and diabetes: back to the future? https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8505293/ The potential role of thiamine (vitamin B1) in diabetic complications https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18220605/ Thiamine Level in Type I and Type II Diabetes Mellitus Patients: A Comparative Study Focusing on Hematological and Biochemical Evaluations https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32528766/ Exploring the link between dietary thiamine and type 2 diabetes mellitus risk in US adults aged 45 years and older: Insights from a cross-sectional investigation https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39642136/ Metformin Is a Substrate and Inhibitor of the Human Thiamine Transporter, THTR-2 (SLC19A3) https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26528626/

      Can food allergies like milk and soy flatten villi?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I'm not a gastro doctor, but it seems reasonable to conclude that they would be able to spot any cancer-related issues during the endoscopy, at least in the areas that were checked.

      Sorry cut out. Scott! Thanks You are really the master of this things! Thanks! One more question please, i did 2 EGD. In first EGD there was taken 2 samples from duodenum where they found MARSH 3b. In second EGD after 1year (i described in first post of this topic) they have taken multiple Samples from duodenum and jejunum and everything is ok (other than some of the samples is not readable but the explanation is very small and short, villi form good samples is OK and  they only found inflammation in lamina propria. Sorry, I am little overwhelm by this and scared so dr.google almost every-time frightens me. Would my GI and histology expert doctor see if there were like something serious like small bowel cancer or neoplasms(especially in histology)?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's quite common for the mucosa to appear normal during an endoscopy in patients with celiac disease, especially in cases of Marsh 3a or 3b histological changes. Studies have shown that the "naked eye" assessment of the small intestine during endoscopy often misses the subtle changes associated with early or less severe villous atrophy. This is why multiple biopsies from different parts of the duodenum, including the bulb, are essential for a reliable diagnosis. Visual clues like scalloping, nodularity, or atrophy may not always be visible, particularly in patients with less advanced disease. In fact, research indicates that histology can reveal significant findings even when the mucosa looks normal on endoscopy, reinforcing the need for biopsy as the gold standard for diagnosing celiac disease. For anyone preparing to have an endoscopy, it's important to ensure that your gastroenterologist takes multiple biopsies from various areas to increase the likelihood of an accurate diagnosis.
