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.

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.

      Refractory or super sensitive?

      By Levi · Posted

      I have taken D2 50K oral capsules once weekly for 7 years consecutively due to a dangerously low deficiency level of 17. It took 3 whole years before I reached D level 34, followed by higher D levels up to low 70s. Two or three times throughout the following 4 yrs my labs would show slight high TSH (hypothyroidism). Is it possible that the last 4 of the 7 consecutive years of D2 50K which gradually increased my D levels to 60s & 70s is causing current labs of high TSH, even though for at least the last 4 months I have reduced my D2 50K intake to half dosage, every other week vs. weekly?

      Can celiac cause widespread pain??

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Untreated celiac disease is associated with arthritis and other autoimmune diseases which can cause such pain. These categories have research articles on this topic: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/fibromyalgia-and-celiac-disease/ https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/arthritis-and-celiac-disease/

      Can celiac cause widespread pain??

      By Paula Andrews · Posted

      Hi! Did anyone experience severe body aches prior to being diagnosed?  Last year I suddenly experienced widespread pain, completely unexplained. After numerous tests with normal results I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia in August and started taking Cymbalta, which helped about 80%. Now other than pain, I did not have any additional fibromyalgia symptoms.    In the following months I started experiencing diarrhea, to the point where it was constant. In January I was diagnosed with celiac disease and microscopic colitis after having an endoscopy/colonoscopy. I've been gluten-free since that day and recently my pain level has dropped to ZERO.  I'm starting to wonder if I even have fibromyalgia, or if all of my symptoms were celiac and colitis.  I've seen several doctors and no one suggested this, but from what I'm reading it sounds possible.  The fact that I was diagnosed with two different diseases within a few months also seems odd. Has anyone else experienced all-over body aches with celiac?  And if so did the pain end after eliminating gluten?  Unfortunately I don't know anyone who has either celiac or fibromyalgia to talk to.

      Help Understanding Test Results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Understood, and with any positive blood test the usual next step is a biopsy to confirm celiac disease, and this would be true even if the tTg-IgA is negative.

      ADA, if that applies to you, has specific procedures, guidelines, rules, and regulations for employers to accommodate employees with disabilities. Check with your company HR Dpt. As Scott has mentioned this would be a quick fix, with the protection afforded employees with disabilities through ADA there is no need for you to job hunt. Hope this helps.    Ps. Coeliac Disease is now a listed Disability in the U.S.
