Thank you SO VERY MUCH pabb and glenntaj (always MrsD!!)
I have watched my gorgeous life loving and vibrant dd slowly morph into a tired, overweight, unhealthy, fed up and sometimes NOT EVEN THERE person I don't know.
All beginning with the removal of her left lobe of her thyroid because the nodules MIGHT be cancer...negative. This was at 19 yo - 8 years ago.
Along with the Hashimotos, hypothyroid, pcos, ebv, anemia, adrenal gland fatigue, estrogen dominance, food sensitivities, extreme fatigue, brain fog, mood swings - we are adding severely sore/swollen fingers in the morning!! (That pesky Round 1 of Gardasil given during undxd mono! REALLY haunts me...)
Where do I begin? There is a test result with the above referenced bloods for ALLERGEN (IGG) IMMUNOCAP GLUTEN
GLUTEN IGG* results:
17.8 H This test has not been cleared or approved by the FDA.
tsmitty, what tests were ordered for YOU? Are you considering a biopsy *be sure they take MANY SAMPLES ALL OVER!! - for you will need to eat gluten. Actually, you DON'T NEED gluten, so say goodbye to it - forever. Look at all the issues surrounding it as well as RYE and BARLEY *and I feel corn and peanuts too! Oh, and alcoholic beverages.
But that is just my opinion. I am not sensitive or allergic - as for my endoscopy results six years ago, but I am GF today. Just because I like me.
