Honey Of The Day

Came home from work today, to find teenage son, looking into the pantry forlornly, maybe there was nothing he could find to eat, but it is a common place along with the fridge for teenage sons to hang out.

Then I noticed on the bench he had been up to something, so I asked him what he had been doing. Mums always seem to know when something has happened. So he confessed that he had been cooking noodles and forgot to turn the stove off and had left the pot on the element.

So the odd things on the bench were his attempts at cleaning a burnt pot. I told him that's fine, we all make mistakes. He wasn't too sure things were fine and wanted to know if that was one of the pots I use, and I said yes, and he said would it still be all right for me even if he had burnt noodles in it. I just melted, he just so knows the problems I face.

Does this mean I can buy a new stainless steel pot? Probably not, as he had done a damn good job.

If it was a stainless steel pot, I guess it would be ok? Sorry. :P:D

aw that's very sweet!

you can buy a new pot if you want to, but stainless steel is fine even if it's had burnt on gluten in it, as long as he got it clean, you are good to go! (My hubby has burned gluten stuff in my stainless steel pots before)...

Aw, that's really sweet of him to be so concerned about you. I think the pot will be fine for you to use.

      Yes, there are slim chances that his positive antibody ttg-ab IGA score is due to something besides celiac disease. But usually when that is the case, the antibody score is a weak positive.  But consider the dilemma you will be in if your son goes gluten free now and there is a good amount of time that elapses before the biopsy (if the GI specialist wants to do that) and the biopsy is negative. You then will be presented with conflicting test results. Which will you believe? From the article I linked in my first post, concerning the reliability of the ttg-ab IGA serum test for celiac disease:  The test is estimated to have a sensitivity of approximately 90%, which means that it correctly identifies 90% of people with celiac disease. It also has a high specificity of around 95%, which means that it correctly identifies 95% of people who do not have celiac disease.

      Thanks @trents We are still working on accepting that he has to be gluten free all his life. And this reality is also hitting him badly.  As this was only the serum based results and biopsy hasn't been done yet, are there any slim chances that he might NOT have Celiac disease? I've messaged his doctor to confirm one more time if he should go gluten free now or wait until he sees specialist. Thanks.

      My daughter,17 was getting stomach pains off and on for months. Went to pediatrician, bloodwork came back showing TTG-IGA 5.3 weak positive. Told to follow up with gastroenterology, continue to eat gluten. Can’t get appoint until end of Jan (we are on waitlist also), called back because she was still getting pains and nurse said to let her try to go gluten free for a few weeks and see if she feels better. She does feel better. My question is should I let her stay gluten free until the end of January and see what the Gastro says? I know she will have to be eating gluten before she has any further testing, but that is likely months away at this point.

      Many years ago, there was a doctor who recommended never eating the same food within 5 days. Also recommended greens only 2X per week. Can't remember his name. Dx Celiac at age 87 by self as where I live in the northwest of Idaho, there is no medical insurance which covers Celiac disease or even will pay for tests!
