A+....which explains my tendency to be an over-achiever :lol: I think we have determined that Celiac does not discriminate!

Is anyone tabulating these responses :blink: We could do medical science a real favor here :D

Anyway, I'm another A+ (don't I wish I could have said that back in my school days!). And another Heinz 57 (mostly German/Danish, with a smattering of Irish, Scottish, Austrian and Slavic).

B's certainly seem to be in the minority.

I'm pretty sure we are related somehow...I mean, like we both have mothers, right? Just kidding, but we do share the same blood type and your heritage is almost identical to mine..except that there is some french in mine as well and the traditional 'my great,great, great grandmother was a cherokee princess' schtick! LOL

Well, I would love to be able to claim that I am part of a family that can produce babies as beautiful as the one in your avi.

Actually, you just reminded me that there is also some French Canadian back there, too. And my sister used to claim some indian blood when she was a kid... but that was just because she had dark hair and skin, while I was a white-haired blondie.

Of course none of my heritage is unusual for the the city I was born in. I believe half the inhabitants could claim the same heritage, all in various percentages :)

So far I see a number of green-eyed, reddish brown haired celiacs here, which describes me as well.

Thank you! That is my newest granddaughter.

      @TerryinCO, Are you taking a B Complex in addition to your B12?  B 12 needs the other B vitamins to function correctly.  Celiac disease and the damage to the intestines makes absorbing vitamins and minerals difficult.  Talk to your doctor and nutritionist about supplementing while you're healing.   Are you on any medication for your Gerd?  Here is often caused by too little production of digestive juices.  Supplementing with a B Complex will help.

      OTC pain reliever that are gluten-free and corn free??

      I definitely try to get those in my diet.  There is most likely a genetic component to the issues.  Thank you so much for the advice!!

      Bless your heart!  That does make for a bumpy journey!  The Takeda ALINAMIN EX Plus really works well for pain relief.  I was surprised at how well it works.  I can't recommend it enough.  I can't tolerate aspirin nor nsaids.   Are you getting enough Omega Threes in your diet?  Healthy fats like olive oil help keep our discs and joints healthy and fluid.

      Thank you!  I will have to look into that.  I have Anklosing Spondylitis, bulging and dehydrated discs so pain is a big part of my life.

      Welcome to the forum, @trsprecker, I needed daily pain relief for three crushed vertebrae and found out that Thiamine, Pyridoxine, and Cobalamin (Vitamins B 1, B 6, and B12) have an analgesic effect.   Mechanisms of action of vitamin B1 (thiamine), B6 (pyridoxine), and B12 (cobalamin) in pain: a narrative review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35156556/   This is the one I order through that big online store... It's made in Japan.  I've been taking it for a couple of years now without problems.   GSG 12X Takeda ALINAMIN EX Plus Vitamin B1 B6 B12 Health Supplementary from Japan 120 Tablets I don't do corn, nuts nor artificial sweeteners, either!    Keep us posted on your progress!
