Yes. The damage to the small intestine mucosa can be caused by too many mast cells or celiac disease or both. Not around here much lately, popped in to quote an old post. You should ask your doctors for complete antibody testing...be sure you are still consuming enough gluten. Good Luck : )

Not sure I used the quote feature correctly. perhaps I wasn't clear...I believe the endoscopy is an essential component of diagnosing mast cell disease. It can be very difficult to find a Gasterenterologist that has accurate and up to date knowledge of both celiac disease and mast cell disorders. Blood, Urine, Endoscopy and Bone Marrow should...

Hi DarkAngel....increasing anaphylactic events to many triggers, both known and unknown is very scary. I am not around here much anymore...but email alerts are still going to me regarding other food intolerances. I wanted to add to cycling lady's suggestion regarding Mast Cell Activation. An endoscopy may not result in positive celiac biopsies...

Karen lit the super silly signal....I'm thankful she did. So very sorry to read this news. You sound at peace which shows what a remarkable person you are....you will be missed by those you've helped as well as those whom have shared time with you... in the real world or through our keyboards. Many hugs for all your days left on this rock....

Love it! That would have been welcomed at California ... Especially the Labor Day race used to be hot as hell...I paid 25 bucks one season for the water truck to fill a kiddy pool...everyone laughed at me until they ended pulling their camp chairs to the edge to dangle their feet in my pool! Made the water too dirty for the toddler racetrack neighbor... -

Don't think you did anything wrong. K provided a link that said melt butter on the iron and some other stuff. I went with that and the fact that you said sweet potato didn't work and squeezed as much moisture out of my grated yams as possible. Oh...and turned the heat down to lowest setting as I wanted them to cook, not burn. We do potato pancakes with... -

Dad came to see mom so I ran home for real food and to take care of other details of life. Wanted fresh food so ended up grating two yams...out of sweet potato Then I squeezed the hell out of them in a tea towel...used butter in the iron then threw the grated yam and garlic salt on top...worked great! Just sitting down to a yamwaffle cheeseburger... -

Waffle iron hash browns is a brilliant idea....I think I'll throw some shredded sweet potato in my iron when I get home today. Thanks Ruth I threw a whole chicken with a bunch of fresh rosemary and a bit of broth in KFG before I left to check on mom this morning. I should be home to move it from frig to counter, but if not the guys can do it between... -

I think would try making the same thing without the rice and grate your own cheese (not because of gluten, two in my family react to the anti caking stuff in pre-grated cheese..took us a while to figure that one out). Or better yet, just the tortilla would be the best test. Hang in there....rooting these things out is beyond frustrating.

Thanks Ruth! We never cared for most of the EnerG products...we did eat their pretzels when first dx'd, but then Glutino and others hoped onboard with better tasting pretzels Guess maybe I'll give them another go for me.

Well I joined the snacking dinner crowd this evening. Was in ER with Mom for nine hours so my snack pouch was a couple meals. Dinner was a bag of pretzels/almonds/toll house white choc chips along with astronaut squeeze of apple, butternut, carrot...oh and lots of coffee Ps...has anyone found a gluten-free pretzel without soy? -
Welcome Eric! Here is a combo of my experience coupled with way too much time spent reading medical journals and added experience "listening" to many folks here over the years... Celiac Disease is the core of many autoimmune dysfunctions...if diagnosed early and gluten is removed, health is improved relatively quickly. For others it takes longer...
