Katie! Good to have your name. :) I do hope you know I was only kidding about teh middle-aged man stuff. ;)

Oh folks.....I have what we call the TRIPLE THREAT or HIDEOUS FEMALE TRIFECTA today. :(

Thrown out lower back, a glutening from last night's OUTSTANDING Ethiopian food (and this confuses me since there have been THREE intentional cheatings recently with NO reaction whatsoever), and ALSO started my period today. :angry:

the pain in the lower torso is indescribable - sorry to the guys but imagine JUST your gut and lower back killing you - then add a uterus that wants to exit your body. :huh: ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh my friend came over to walk the dingos, thank God, I am out of commission all day. (maybe magic place later on from drugs, we will see.)

carry on.....dingo OUT.

Awwww, Susie, sorry to hear you out of commission. :( If you brought home a dingo(doggy) bag from the restaraunt last night . . . THROW IT OUT. . . and don't pull a Constanza and go rumaging after it in the trash bin later! . . . Oh, I know you would NEVER do that! :lol:

Hope you're feeling better soon. :)

I wondered if Ethiopians use teff for bread. Thought I'd heard that.

Annnnnnnnnnnnd Pseu-zee .. . . :( secret experiments :(

If we gave them a silly name could we hear about them? ^_^

:) to no reaction anyway!!

:ph34r: oh you know me too well. Got up this morning, ate it PROMPTLY for breakfast. :ph34r: Had not thrown it into trash so Costanza was not necessary (though do we not all know that I am NOT above that :lol: ). It was just too yummy and we all figured out the problem last night - - there were NINE vegetarian items, one had toasted wheat berries = I AXED them to leave that one off - they didn't. I ate around it. :ph34r: One of the owners of the restaurant is a doctor - she kept telling me things about Celiac and I asked how she knew so much - - finally she confessed. I LOVE her!!!!!!!

Well, come on now! figured eating around the wheat berries would be okay since three recent intentional cheatings resulted in NOTHING!!!! :huh: *yeah, half a pizza, and NOTHING??? WTH)

okay so - - update - - had a BRIEF period in bathroom this morning - five minutes? - glutening? I dunno. Mostly it was lower back and menstrual malaise today. All will be quite well by tomorrow. :)

Julie - - LOVE that bird kicking his leg up. Like the coach I love from MadTV. :lol:

and nighty'night!!!!!!

Wow, Snowball has got him some rhythm! And I had to go look (I'm a softy when it comes to animals), he has been adopted.

OK, SueZee, we are expecting to hear from you today.

Light, I have a DLB, too. We couldn't stand each other until we both had moved out. Just me being gone wasn't good enough because he was such a sloth and took terrible advantage of my parents (or so I thought). Now that we are both OLD and he has lost a LOT of hair (hehe), we get along a lot better and I wish I could see him more often. We do act pretty juvenile when we are both visiting the parents at the same time . . . some habits die hard. We even got yelled at by mom and were told to set a better example for the grandchildren (he started it though . . . he ketp LOOKING at me and he crossed over the line to MY side of the seat).

The whole thread is pretty quiet on weekends. That is because most of the contributors write when they are "working." :lol: :lol: :lol:

Feeling MUCH better today! :)

I highly recommend Ethiopian food for Celiacs. They do use teff (an ethiopian grrain high in protein) and for their own pancake-like bread, they mix it w/ other flours. For mine, she just used teff and olive oil.

I don't know if I was glutened yesterday or not. :huh:

Just know entire torso area was not a happy place.

Am feeling like quite the dullard today, got nuttin' funny to say. And dingos are starting to stare.

CARRY ON SILLIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey, Katie, one of my kids is just like that. He was the first kid to be expelled from any home school whatsoever! We sent him to boarding school for the second semester because we didn't know what else to do with him at that point .... he got "the talk" at the boarding school -- "We've never had to expel someone and we don't want you to be the first"

He's still a pain in the rear end, but he's a senior, so he can be his own problem soon.

Since I'm so sick, my kids do all the cleaning and laundry around here .... they all have to pitch in. Seventeen year old son is in charge of the yard since he can't get along working with anyone ....

Susie, sorry you're feeling bad ... QUIT eating gluten! It may not give you digestive issues anymore, but eventually it will build up. I don't think you want to be in the mental place you were before even if the bathroom issues aren't bothering you .... [/end of I can't help it I'm a mom rant]

Was it at all disappointing like Carla's?

I'd forgotten all about a conversation I had many yrs ago w/ a long-time celiac. I was still yrs away from 100% gluten-free.

He said he cheats every 6 months w/out repercussions.

mmmmmmm vicarious cheeeeeeeating <drool>

donut? pie? :unsure: croissant?

(he started it though . . . he kept LOOKING at me and he crossed over the line to MY side of the seat).

:lol: oh TOO funny! :lol:

I'm one of five. Even though my younger brother and I argued a lot, we were the two youngest. At times, it was necessary to team up. Talk about unsupervised . . . I think the phrase "You're not the boss of me! :angry: " started at our house. :lol:

I have six ... I hear that phrase! Usually it's the girls against the boys in our house, though the girls will fight amongst themselves and so will the boys, but they team up when it's a boy/girl disagreement.

I may be the only one who finds this video anything more than mildly amusing but I saw it today and I laugh harder every time I watch it.

I'm having post-gluten grumpiness so my fiance has been finding me funny clips on youtube to watch and for some reason this one found my funny bone. I think I've even seen it on TV before and didn't find it that funny but seeing it today was a different story.

So if everyone else finds it to be rather lame, lets just blame it on my brain being affected by gluten.

Your fiance is so sweet ... I remember when he would get on here months ago worried about you. :)

I have a cockatoo ... they really are hysterical birds.

I am one of two, so it was rather boring...and quiet....growing up. I had to come up with imaginary brothers and sisters for a while when I was really young :lol:

Did you add the second sentence or did I just not see it??? Uh, oh, maybe the brain fog is getting worse. :huh:

My bird was dancing yesterday ... my son was holding him and walked into the family room ... the TV was on and the commercial had music that he apparently liked so he was hopping all around, bouncing and putting his crown up. It was hysterical. Then he stood on my son's head for a few minutes trying to take a nap! You know how birds stand on one foot and tuck their heads in their back .... but he kept slipping off my son's head!

He won't stand on my head because I'm the head of his flock ... he knows I'm boss. Birds are wild animals, so dominance is important to them ... and to you if you don't want to be bitten. :)

Whilst we are all sitting here mindin' our own bidness (the dogs and I - mommy is wasting time on Itunes :ph34r: ), Stinker (aka Tika) let out a highly-audible fart, scared herself, jumped up w/ tail betwixt legs and ran out of the room.

You ARE soooo busted !!! It's all right, you get a brain-fog pass on this one .

I did go back and add that question a couple secs after I posted it, so you must have just missed it. So it's not you! It was me, didn't mean to raz your mind :lol:

So dancing must be a special talent of the cackatoo?

Ok, ok, I'll see your delirium and silliness and raise you a loopy and a slightly off-balance:

According to dictionary.com, cack (n) - a soft-soled, heelless shoe for infants.

So I can only deduce that a "Cackatoo" is a cockatoo that wears baby booties.

      Welcome to the forum, @Cathijean90! I went 13 years from the first laboratory evidence of celiac disease onset before I was diagnosed. But there were symptoms of celiac disease many years before that like a lot of gas. The first laboratory evidence was a rejected Red Cross blood donation because of elevated liver enzymes. They assume you have hepatitis if your liver enzymes are elevated. But I was checked for all varieties of hepatitis and that wasn't it. Liver enzymes continued to slowly creep up for another 13 years and my PCP tested me for a lot of stuff and it was all negative. He ran out of ideas. By that time, iron stores were dropping as was albumin and total protein. Finally, I took it upon myself to schedule an appointment with a GI doc and the first thing he did was test me for celiac disease. I was positive of course. After three months of gluten free eating the liver enzymes were back in normal range. That was back in about 1992. Your story and mine are more typical than not. I think the average time to diagnosis from the onset of symptoms and initial investigation into causes for symptom is about 10 years. Things are improving as there is more general awareness in the medical community about celiac disease than there used to be years ago. The risk of small bowel lymphoma in the celiac population is 4x that of the general population. That's the bad news is.  The good news is, it's still pretty rare as a whole. Yes, absolutely! You can expect substantial healing even after all these years if you begin to observe a strict gluten free diet. Take heart! But I have one question. What exactly did the paperwork from 15 years ago say about your having celiac disease? Was it a test result? Was it an official diagnosis? Can you share the specifics please? If you have any celiac blood antibody test results could you post them, along with the reference ranges for each test? Did you have an endoscopy/biopsy to confirm the blood test results?
    • Cathijean90
      I’ve just learned that I had been diagnosed with celiac and didn’t even know. I found it on paperwork from 15 years ago. No idea how this was missed by every doctor I’ve seen after the fact. I’m sitting here in tears because I have really awful symptoms that have been pushed off for years onto other medical conditions. My teeth are now ruined from vomiting, I have horrible rashes on my hands, I’ve lost a lot of weight, I’m always in pain, I haven’t had a period in about 8-9 months. I’m so scared. I have children and I saw it can cause cancer, infertility, heart and liver problems😭 I’ve been in my room crying for the last 20minutes praying. This going untreated for so long has me feeling like I’m ruined and it’s going to take me away from my babies. I found this site googling and I don’t know really what has me posting this besides wanting to hear from others that went a long time with symptoms but still didn’t know to quit gluten. I’m quitting today, I won’t touch gluten ever again and I’m making an appointment somewhere to get checked for everything that could be damaged. Is this an automatic sentence for cancer and heart/liver damage after all these symptoms and years? Is there still a good chance that quitting gluten and being proactive from here on out that I’ll be okay? That I could still heal myself and possibly have more children? Has anyone had it left untreated for this amount of time and not had cancer, heart, fertility issues or liver problems that couldn’t be fixed? I’m sure I sound insane but my anxiety is through the roof. I don’t wanna die 😭 I don’t want something taking me from my babies. I’d gladly take anyone’s advice or hear your story of how long you had it before being diagnosed and if you’re still okay?

      Genetic testing cannot be used to diagnose celiac disease but it can be used to rule it out and also to establish the potential to develop celiac disease. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop it. To develop celiac disease when you have the genetic potential also requires some kind of trigger to turn the latent genes "on", as it were. The trigger can be a lot of things and is the big mystery component of the celiac disease puzzle at this point in time with regard to the state of our knowledge.  Your IGA serum score would seem to indicate you are not IGA deficient and your tTG-IGA score looks to be in the normal range but in the future please include the reference ranges for negative vs. positive because different labs used different reference ranges. There is no industry standard.
    • Scott Adams
      Since nearly 40% of the population have the genes for celiac disease, but only ~1% end up getting it, a genetic test will only tell you that it is possible that you could one day get celiac disease, it would not be able to tell whether you currently have it or not.
    • KDeL
      so much to it.  the genetic testing will help if i don’t have it right? If theres no gene found then I definitely don’t have celiac?  I guess genetic testing, plus ruling out h.pylori, plus gluten challenge will be a good way to confirm yes or no for celiac.
