Patteigh, yer story about kiddie barf down the side o' the bed reminds me of when The Ripper was very small (3, maybe) and he came into our room in the middle of the night, crying that he had thrown up. I went to check his room, and saw no barf on his bed nor on the carpet. He followed me in.... . ....."I didn't wanna get it all over my bed, or leave a big stain on the rug, so I did THIS"........ . .and he proceeded to open his bedside table drawer, which was about half-full of vomit.

:blink:

:lol::lol:

Quick thinkin' and amazing control! :lol:

My younger son would always make it to the bathroom. The oldest would just let 'er rip where ever he happened to be. There was another time where he threw up in his bed, so we put him in the guest room bed while I cleaned up his-- and he puked there too. Yes, I gave him a plastic wastebasket......

Another long night :lol:

Barph stories :lol:

About a year ago my ds hadn't been feeling well, he hadn't vomitted at this point. I put him to bed and about 3 hours later I heard a moment of commotion on the baby monitor, a burp, a quick little cry, then nothing but the sound of his breathing. My gut told me to go check on him, but my head told me not to wake him up. In the morning, I walked past his bedroom door and smelled the most god-aweful smell, opened the door and found my baby COVERED in dried, crusty vomit from head to toe and from the head to the foot of his bed. He woke up then, realized what happened and was totally hysterical only because it got in his hair :rolleyes:

Think I got the mom-o-the-year award on that one too.

It's like when they ALWAYS wake up at 630am and one morning it's getting to be 8am and they're still not up and you think-I'm not going in because

1) they're still sleeping and you'll wake them and pay for it the rest of the day or

2) they're dead, there's nothing you can do about it and you don't want to face it

That's so morbid, I know!!

My dd just tends to freak out, bury her head in my chest and proceed to vomit all over me-WTF??

So I just got off the phone the FH (used to be DH...) and he tells me that FYI: he's wearing his jeans and a nice shirt tonight and what do I think about that? I think I'm having heart palpitations right now and it's a good thing he's not standing in front of me right now! <_< When I am wearing 3 1/2 inch heels and have spent this much time getting ready, he is NOOOOOTTTTTT allowed to wear jeans!!!

I, myself, have never been a puker. Maybe 15 times in my whole life, one of those from gluten, several from alcohol, and the rest from stomach viruses. None of my mom's baby stories include me puking.

When I was eating gluten, I had nausea and vomiting. TMI warning: skip the rest if you are squeamish.

During the final years of my descent into celiac hell, vomiting was a common occurrence. You have not truly walked in my shoes until you have sat on the toilet with explosive diarrhea while simultaneously vomiting into a bucket. icon8.gif

I have been gluten-free for many years now, and the last time I vomited was in October of 2000, about three months after starting the diet, and while still making mistakes from time to time.

Suzie, I am not ignoring your request, but I am still looking into the answer.

That sounds awful :(

For years, nausea was my main symptom. It would get so bad that I wished I could throw up, but I never did. I'm convinced that it was the fear of vomiting in public that triggered my panic attacks. <shudder>

I almost never vomit--save for a few "stomach flu's" during childhood and when pregnant the second time.

Puking story . . .

Twas Thanksgiving of 2002. We drove to Florida to spend it with my MIL. We brought a Norwalk virus with us. At one point, I was trying to catch my son's (age 3) vomit in my hands/arms to keep him from ruining my MIL's sofa (ummmm . . . I succeded). He was miserable and slept with me. Everyone staying in the house caught it along with several visitors. Despite my "extreme" exposure, I never caught it. Not sure why . . . but it meant I was taking care of my 3 year old, my 1 1/2 year old, cleaning toilets, and doing a lot of laundry for the whole house. At one point, my BIL had to go throw up outside because both bathrooms were simultaneously in use for the same function. Good Times. That was the year they were reporting cruise ships turning back to port because everyone on board was sick.

Snack anyone?

Did I ever tell you guys that in my "letter of application" (I use that term loosely) for my preschool position, I informed the director that I don't gag at the smell (or sound)of vomit? I'm pretty sure that's why I got the job.

WIH? I just saw this on TV, had to share, still gagging. Especially notable is the "chocolate poo sundae"

Morning Psillies. Cinnamon rolls are rising. They shall be ready in about 1 1/2 hours. That should be plenty of time for you all to get here. I shall expect you shortly.

It's an un-landscaping day today. I trimmed back bushes yesterday and started pulling out three burning bushes . . . gah!!!!! . . . they are in a spot MUCH too small for them (like just about everything else in this yard). I might have to actually pay someone to dig these out, the roots are so intertwined and there is no manuevering room to get leverage on these puppies. I took out a 12 foot tree (including the root ball) by myself that was much easier than one of these bushes!!! Suze, when you come for your cinnamon rolls, bring me some of yer muskle relaxers!

This should be a standard question on the official application form, methinks.

Ra-shellle! You will LOVE it there - - Verrrrrry posh and old-style elegant - -while I was out there last month, my mom, sis and I wandered in and had "high tea" there in one of the incredible restaurants on the first floor. Mountains right in front of you, a quiet piano playing in the marble foyer.. . .. ...And Vicoria is one of the loveliest cities I've been in, methinks. Take heed - - lots of seniors. Ya cannot be in a huge hurry to get anywhere - -cavalcades of walkers, canes and big station wagons cruising at 20 mph...........

I gotta finish insulating the kitchen today, having committed to the dry wall guy coming next week. I'm just not a fan of anything involving actual labor. Would much rather supervise.....by phone.......from a distant, more pleasant place......with a drink in my hand.....

      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.
