Gosh, I could spend my entire life on here... a new feature: BLOGS! I love new features...this is nasty (not literally--it's a figure of speech :lol: )

Just a quick note to let you know that The Gluten-Free Forum now has a new Blog feature that allows registered members like you to create and maintain your own Internet blog. For those who don't know what a blog is, it is basically like your own diary on the Internet. In this case it is our hope that what you share in your blogs will greatly help other people with celiac disease.

For more information please log into the forum's home page at:

and click "Blogs," or visit the blog page directly at:

Gosh ya'll,

I feel so OLD! I am so technologically un-savvy! :rolleyes:

"Blog" is a funny little word. :D I had to open this thread just out of curiosity.

celiac3270,

I went to your "Blog" and still have no idea exactly what I'm looking at...or how all of the messages interconnect...and what is a trackback?...I got totally lost! :o

How pitiful... <_<

Don't ask me--I'm new, too--lol :lol:

Have no idea what a trackback is..

Mine is really dull now, but I hope to find time to make it more interesting--I just wanted to test it out.

I have a blog, or LiveJournal, as we Thielians call it.

Check it out, it's in my signature.

For those that seem not to know, Blog is short for weblog. Its an on line diary, or journel type idea. Just FYI :)

Jill--you can also import the blog onto the site here, as well--but if it's not about celiac, I don't know... ;)

celiac3270,

It's about everything---and celiac disease. It's the story of my life, but I decided to make a separate celiac disease diary. My LJ is friends only, and I don't know if any of the members (besides Tiffany) have LJ.

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer.  Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks on supplements she is cheerful, sleeping better and looks better. The red rimmed eyes and dark circles are much better.   AND her Ttg was a 3!!!!!! So, we are crushing the gluten-free diet which is great. But WHY are her iron and vit d low if she's not getting any gluten????  She's on 30mg of iron per day and also a multivitamin and vit d supplement (per her dr). That helped her feel better quickly. But will she need supplements her whole life?? Or is there some other reason she's not absorbing iron? We eat very healthy with minimal processed food. Beef maybe 1x per week but plenty of other protein including eggs daily.  She also says her tummy hurts every single morning. That was before the iron (do not likely a side effect). Is that common with celiac?

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.
