Need A Laugh?

OK, I know it's mean to laugh at the stupidity of others, but this was too good to not share with others. I follow a UK based board as well as the one here, and I literally ROTFL at this person's posting:

Open Original Shared Link

Even at the beginning of everything I _knew_ I couldn't get this from DH, even with the most intimate of contact. And that was way back when DH was just DB (darling boyfriend). Anyways, after LOL and having DH ask, 'What are you doing?' I figured I had to share it with other people who might laugh as much as I did.

I chose to put this here, as I think it's the best fit (this is about some celiac's special someone). If it's in the wrong place, please move it where it's needed.

ETA- it seems the UK board pulled the posting, as I paraphrase below, a celiac's very new girlfriend asks if condoms are enough to keep her from getting celiac. Sorry for the dead link.

well, at least she asked instead of just assuming

Truthfully, I don't think this is a stupid question at all. Over the years, we've had people come here and ask if Celiac is affected by bodily fluids in sexual situations. There are actually some good discussions that came about because of it. A quick search should bring them up if you're interested. :)

Before my diagnosis, I had never heard of Celiac. And because the word "disease" is tacked on to the end of it, it sounds scary. How is someone to know, and to get information unless they ask? Yes, at least she asked before running down the street in fright without any information.

All very good points, I guess I was just used to seeing DB so scrawny and ill and then found out that it's a food intolerance (autoimmune disorder) that I never even thought about it being sexually transmitted. BTW, I've noticed that they've removed the posting on the board, so the link may now be dead, but to any late comers, the question was asked if celiac could be sexually transmitted. I know a LOT of my giggles were due to the fact that I'd just spent the last 6 hours studying off and on, and was slap happy by that point.

      Welcome to the forum, @lsky! In Canada I believe your healthcare system is totally socialized so I doubt if you have the option of making direct appointments with specialists. In the U.S. it is becoming more and more that way as most people here now are covered by some government managed healthcare network and almost all providers and specialists are part of those networks. Here and there you will find independent providers that take private pay only but it is the exception. Both in Canada and in the U.S. I believe there is a concerted effort to always keep the PCP in the loop.

      I have had celiac disease since i was 7 and i've recently had worsening symptoms, I live in canada and the doctors right now are horrible so my general doctor never puts in my referrals or she does it wrong and i have to wait months-years for an answer. I was wondering I already have a Gastroenterologist, could i just contact him and ask to book an upcoming appointment? i'm not sure if it's different in canada or not.

      Welcome to the forum @Juliana82! Bleeding where? Thanks for the articles on seronegative celiac disease. As I recall, one of our moderators is seronegative and has been faithful to draw our attention to this phenomenon at different times. The heterozygous factor seronegative celiac disease is an important factoid I believe.

      With such a weak positive, his got may or may not be cleared in three months. My daughter when diagnosed at the age of seven had a TTG score of 388. It was 18 months on a gluten-free diet before her levels returned to normal. it seems to me that when you started something that allows your son to gain weight, as he clearly needs to do, you may want to keep doing it.  Sometimes you just need to figure out the science of it as you go along. Have you been tested?  That’s how I found out I had celiac disease, was after my daughter was diagnosed, and the recommendation given to me was that all of her first-degree relations should be tested as well. I came back with a weak positive when I was on a largely, though not entirely, gluten-free diet (cooking for my newly diagnosed child). good luck with everything.

      Does anyone have bleeding after eating gluten? You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not very common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/
