As someone who was told it was all in my head--I was just "sensitive"--for over 20 years, I would like to add my sincere thanks! My experience, like so many of us, was very similar to yours, Scott. I was reading through the thread in question this morning, and was so happy to see that you stepped in. :)

Hey Bev, thanks B)

yes, thank you Scott for jumping in... I got so sick of people for years, including my family, telling me that I either had a mental illness or that it was all in my head. Dr.s included... We don't need instigators coming in to stir up trouble and try to discredit valid Celiac info.

I was reading that this morning too Scott.

Thank you for stepping in.

Seems like we've had our share of disurbers lately. It's not bad to get people to think but telling people it's in their head, celiac can be cured so you can eat gluten, etc.....

Patti,

Didn't I read recently that you were thanked for getting people to think outside the box? We all need to process a lot of different information and see if it may fit. It would be different if a gluten free diet was unhealthy. Any diet CAN BE unhealthy, we still have the responsibility of varying our foods to maximize nutrition.

Yes, but that was completely different--the person was sick with an infection, and thought it was just her Celiac and was trying to figure out what she ate that was doing it. I suggested that it was something else entirely--and it turned out to be a serious infection--unrelated to the Celiac. That's what was meant by 'thinking outside of the box'.

I'm confused--did I say something I shouldn't have? Because it wouldn't be the first time :ph34r:

No you didn't. I referred to the diet since some people (not celiac/gluten intolerant) seem to think that the gluten-free diet isn't healthy.

Oh, ok :) Just my feeble mind not processing again! :D

Double post as put in the wrong thread first** sorry!

Thanks Scott..again, for stepping in.

I also chose to stay with my Internist of 20 who never thought to test for celiac as I was obese and struggling with my weight and constant 'd' for those years..and every year the 'd' got worse and IBS dx came and then after 5 weeks of not being able to eat, constant water 'd' that kept me house bound he tested for celiac. 16 months on gluten-free diet and help on the board for other food intollerances that have cropped up..I have my life back...and my mental health too, not because I was 'crazy' but mentally confussed by my illness from un dx celiac disease. He tells me I know more about celiac disease than he does and I'm helping him and his PA by sending them info too.

Thanks again.

Judy in philly

      Ichthus is the Greek word (using English letters) for fish. The letters in the actual Greek word form an acronym that come from the first letters in the Greek words for "Jesus", "God's Son," "Savior". Now, back to your family's denial of your celiac disease, I think you can relate to this:

      Anyone Else Experiencing These Symptoms?

      Thanks for the kind words. It's hard to convince my doctor to investigate further because of a negative blood test and he only tested me for one marker. 🙃 I've come to the point where I need to take this into my own hands because the doctors are infuriating and it's not going anywhere. I've been gluten free for a week and feeling better but I was still co...

I've been gluten free for a week and feeling better but I was still consuming dairy and I think that's what's backing me up. Next week no dairy introduced.

      Hello mantooth nice to meet you it's so uncanny what you wrote you sound just like me even the back issues are exactly the same and I'm new here too trying to find out if I have the same had I too have been struggling to find answers with my docters I don't have a diagnosis but I've been struggling like forever and was told ibs and health aniexty was my problem but on researching I've come to the conclusion it's probably more because i cut gluten and lactose out for 6 months and  it was a incredible change for me so although I can't help with diagnosis I can say your not alone in trying  to find answers 😊
