Welcome to Sillieville, Sammy :D

Her Royal Majesty, Erica. It has a certain je n'est sais quoi, n'est-ce pas?

As Oracle, I must point out that your term as monarch here is limited. Even though you ascended the throne as a teenager, you are not destined to be the next Open Original Shared Link.

I think she is chasing bones in her sleep. She's on my lap, and her tail is wagging, and her head is moving and her whole body is wiggling. I think my giggling is going to wake her up.

I'm smitten. My heart grew about 10000000000x the size it was.

"Psillyville... it's this thing, it's a post/topic/thread/whatever on that celiac forum we found forever ago....?" "And how much time exactly have you been spending on there, to get elected queen?" "Uhhhhh...... :ph34r: well i mean that's not how u get elected..." "How much time?"

:lol: :lol: :lol:

My Stinker, God rest her soul, ran a veeeeeeeeeeeeeeerry successful trenching and excavation business in the back yard for her first two to three years........I'm not talking just......digging holes........oh no. We are talking furrows.....caverns........deep, long, connected ruts.....tunnels......nearly the whole grass obliterated and gone. :blink: Just a continuous maze of deep ruts and furrows and mud and dirt and holes. :lol:

<there were times I did want to bash her little triangular dingo head in>

:ph34r:

but.......the cuteness and the charm and the intelligence and the companionship and the snuggling love......she had my heart from the first second I saw her, in her cage. :wub:

Just remember the cuteness factor - it goes a long way. :)

I'm SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO happy she's with you and wriggling around in your lap...........

Yup.....that's about it. :P

Gee......who woulda thunk people would get pissy on a Miracle Whip thread? :blink: ...... <sigh> .. . . .

.. .. .. . ...and I'm not referring to you, Peter......I know you're just trying to get the facts straightened out... . . . .... . .and maybe shut some people up

.. . . .....I understand some people feel the need to be right, but can't they do it without making it appear as though they're sticking their tongues out at each other?

If you can't play nice, get out of the sandbox.

I'm going to bed.... ..... . . ........ ..to dream of puppies

I am picturing her sitting in front of her computer making hand gestures, trying to sign words like 'penis' and 'vagina'! :lol:

Um. . . . . . D'ya suspect that these may also be things she will share with her parents?

      Sorry but I don't have specific recommendations for doctors, however, starting out with good multivitamins/minerals would make sense. You may want to get your doctor to screen you for where you different levels are now to help identify any that are low, but since you're newly diagnosed within the past year, supplementation is usually essential for most celiacs.

      Yes, I can imagine. My celiac journey started with a rejection of a blood donation by the Red Cross when I was 37 because of elevated liver enzymes. I wasn't a drinker and my family doctor checked me for hepatitis and I was not overweight. No answers. I thought no more about it until six years later when I landed a job in a healthcare setting where I got annual CMP screenings as part of my benefits. The liver enzymes were continually elevated and creeping up every year, though they were never super high. My primary care doc had no clue. I got really worried as your liver is pretty important. I finally made an appointment with a GI doc myself and the first thing he did was test me for celiac disease. I was positive. That was in about 1996. After going on a gluten-free diet for three months the liver enzymes were back in normal range. Another lab that had gotten out of whack that has not returned to normal is albumin/total protein which are always a little on the low side. I don't know what that's about, if it's related to the liver or something else like leaky gut syndrome. But my doctors don't seem to be worried about it. One thing to realize is that celiac disease can onset at any stage of life. There is a genetic component but there is also an epigenetic component. That is, the genetic component is not deterministic. It only provides the potential. There needs also to be some health or environmental stressor to activate the latent gene potential. About 40% of the population have the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually do.

      Hello @Heather Hill You are most welcome.  As a longstanding member and now mod of the forum, I am ashamed to say I find numbers and figures very confusing, so I rarely stray into the realms of explaining markers. (I've self-diagnosed myself with dyscalculia!)  So I will leave that to @Scott Adams or another person. However as a British person myself I quite understand that the process with the NHS can take rather a long time.  But just as you made a concerted effort to eat gluten before your blood test, I'd advise doing the same with eating gluten before a biopsy, in order to show if you are reacting to gluten.  It might be worth contacting the hospital or your GPs secretary to find out if they know what the current waiting time is. Here is a page from Coeliac UK about the current NHS recommendations. https://www.coeliac.org.uk/information-and-support/coeliac-disease/getting-diagnosed/blood-tests-and-biospy/#:~:text=If you remove or reduce,least six weeks before testing.

      Thanks again. My mom was diagnosed over 50 years ago with celiac so grew up watching her deal with the challenges of food. I have been tested a few times prior due to this but these results have me a bit stunned. I have a liver disease that has advanced rapidly with no symptoms and an allergy that could be a contributing factor that had no symptoms. I guess I’ll call it lucky my Dr ordered a rescreen of a liver ultrasound from 5 years ago that triggered this or I would likely have tripped into cirrhosis. It’s all pretty jarring.
    • Heather Hill
      Many thanks for your responses, much appreciated.  The tests did include tTg IgA and all the other markers mentioned.  I also had sufficient total IgA so if I'm reading the Mayo clinic thing correctly, I didn't really need the anti-deaminated gliadin marker? So, if I am reading the information correctly do I conclude that as all the other markers including tTg IgA and DGP IgG and tTg IgG and EMA IgA are all negative, then the positive result for the immune response to gliadin, on it's own, is more likely to suggest some other problem in the gut rather than Coeliac disease? Until I have a view from the medics (NHS UK) then I think I will concentrate on trying to lower chronic inflammation and mend leaky gut, using L glutamine and maybe collagen powder. Thank you for your help so far.  I will get back in touch once I have a response, which sadly can take quite a long time.   Kindest Heather Hill
