Every year John and I do adopt an Angel through the Salvation Army. We pick a name off a tree and buy gifts for an underprivledged child. It is always a lot of fun.

Hey! There's a newbie named Eric who's posted over in the coping section.....he's put up a link to a very cool site where you can find humourous celiac T shirts and other paraphrenalia. He states that there "isn't much celiac humour around here".

I think I'd best respond to his post and inform him of Sillyville....get him over here....don't ya think?

My niece gave a goat in my name last year to a family in Africa. I completely forgot!!!!!!!! :wub: :wub:

M-m-m.....a whole association devoted to this.....interesting. I will say no more. Good work Lisa :D:lol:

Well who are the prominent members? ;)

Perhaps I'm just confuzzled . . . are we trying to maintain a goat-free lifestyle . . . or is it just a goat-free diet?? Hmmmm, they telling us that our quality of life will improve if we get ourselves a goat . . . If I get a goat, will I be happier???

I believe we are trying to prevent GOAT ABUSE ;) ;)

Yesterday,

All my doughnuts seemed not gluten-free

Now it seems like they are more tasty,

Oh, I believe in gluten-free.

Suddenly,

I'm not half the woman I used to be,

There's a 15 pounds hanging onto me,

Oh, gluten-free came suddenly.

Why wheat

Had to go I don't know, the docs wouldn't say.

I couldn't sleep last night because I've been so immobile. My body hurts from not moving.

If the rain stops for a few hours I'll go for a walk, but does anyone have suggestions of exercise that doesn't involve the abdominal muscles? Or lifting?

:o Jess-- do no exercise at all except walking--which is good for you right now. It's still too soon for anything else.....when do you go for your follow-up?

I am so bad at being not well. Follow up is 1 month after surgery.

Stopping the pain meds was a good idea. Made me much more aware of when I was overdoing it.

I'll try doing gentle stretches throughout the day. Maybe just being in a multitude of positions will help, even if they aren't strenuous.

um.......I do recall your crazy at-home doctor but when I first read this, I thought you were having an ENDOSCOPY in his living room. :lol: I'm sorry, I really do think that that procedure should be done in a medical facility.......not on someone's divan.......

Yes, hopefully not too much tidying up and scrubbing/vacuuming for you there today.....but maybe you can bake some cookies with teh missus........

JESS! :blink:

Patti's right, you should ONLY be gently walking. NO vigorous swinging with those men, either! OMG - I am a really good patient :lol: Could loll in bed for days (as long as someone's feeding me and tending to Weez)......... :huh:

Wait for it.......Judith has balls??????? :o:lol:

Patti :lol: :lol: quite the comedian, you are

SILLIES - - I have been working out SO HARD at the gym - I think i've.......torn things..... :unsure: am in SO much pain adn too old for this sort of activity............shoulder/hip/back - what in hell? it didn't USED to hurt this much when I worked out........... :angry: getting old SUCKS!

Ah ..............'me balls are missing today'.......I'm a woos. :lol: have to go find me balls :blink:

Patti's the expert here for sure.

Agree here-----I just know that for me.....after surgeries I found that going off the pain meds made me much more aware of 'overdoing it' too.

I think just changing positions and moving when you can will help with the stiffness........and body aches.

each day will make it better........

Em good luck at the Dr today

don't over do with his 'chores' :lol:

No endoscopy scheduled today........and at least his specialty is NOT in gynecology. Think I'd be slowly backing toward the door if upon entering I saw metal stirrups affixed to his chest freezer........ . . . . ... :o:lol:

Yep, I sure can't do what I was doing ten years ago. :(:angry: I'm slower, less flexible......my hair isn't as nice........well, that's not an exercise thing, but |I could go on and on..... :rolleyes:

Jess! Walking is really good! Grab an umbrella and go......Not long, and not quickly...... .. but even a half-hour stroll would be excellent! Yes, I agree with you about easy stretching. Do that when you get back.

How long are you off work?

      I’m terrified it’s too late for me😭

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hello @Cathijean90 Firstly, welcome to the forum, you have come to the right place! I know this is much easier to say than to do, but try not to worry.  Whilst it is awful on so many levels that you have only just found out that Coeliac Disease is the issue behind all your problems, when you could have known 15 years ago, as Trents has said, it is really not at all uncommon for people to have symptoms for years before the doctors know what they are dealing with.  I was worried, too, that I'd never get better when I was first diagnosed.  My nutritionist said it wasn't too late and I didn't believe her!  But you know what -  I am feeling so much better now.  I've known of people living near me who were diagnosed in their 70s and 80s and have bounced back, and my consultant has even diagnosed someone in their 90s!  So being diagnosed older is something that also happens a lot. I am now in my 50s but my first symptoms, looking back, probably started with bouts of diarrhea in my teens and terrible nauseating migraines in my 20s, with a mouth full of ulcers twice in my 30s, aura migraines starting with my first pregnancy at 34, hallucinations with both pregnancies and a pre-term baby with my second pregnancy.  Weird liver function tests suggestive and iron deficiency, which sent me into a spin because my GP said it might be a type of cancer, then blood in my stools and clinical anxiety in the months prior to my diagnosis.    Wow - what gluten can do to someone!  But now, apart from a few minor issues with aura migraines, these issues have gone away.  It has been so worth giving up gluten, people say I have good self-control but frankly, and I am sure you feel the same, knowing how sick gluten can make us, I'm not remotely interested in eating gluten ever again! I've recently discovered my GP didn't tell me my cholesterol is creeping up when he tested me three years ago.  If I had known I'd have started being much more careful with my diet.  I dread to think what my cholesterol levels are now,  I'll have to do a test sooner or later but I do need to try to do something about it now.  So I do relate with your situation. To have not had the diagnosis passed onto you is awful.  But the good news is you do know now.   Also, you will be taking your diet seriously, which will give you the best chance of a good recovery.   Kick gluten out of your diet, get your doctor to run some tests to see if you have any vitamin deficiencies, and address those, and also see if you have any thyroid issues which occasionally affect coeliacs and can be easily treated.   Build your strength up with the best whole food you can manage, and try to take one day at at time.  On having children:  my friend had a series of miscarriages before she was diagnosed with coeliac disease, and then when she started a gluten free diet, no more - she carried two more pregnancies to term.   I am so glad you have a faith, my Christian faith has been a huge help to me on my journey.   Two  books on anxiety and depression too, helped, if you feel you are struggling with either or both.  The Depression Cure: The Six-Step Programme to Beat Depression Without Drugs, by Dr Steve Llardi, and At Last a Life by Paul David.  Both available online. Come back to us if you have any more questions.  You are not alone. Cristiana

      It can take between 6 months and 2 years for the dermatitis herpetiformis rash to resolve. The symptoms of dermatitis herpetiformis arise from deposits of certain antibodies building up in the skin. These deposits attract immune cells leading to inflammation and blistering. It can take 10 years for the deposits to be reabsorbed although symptoms resolve long before this.
