Wheat Allergy Mentioned On Sitcom.

On ABC's "Less Than Perfect" Andy Dick's character said, "Is there wheat in the cake, because I'm allergic." Hahaha, I thought it was funny.

I know there are people on here who don't have Celiacs but rather an allergy to wheat, so I thought'd I'd share!

First comics, now sitcoms. Looks like the mainstream is going to hear about us whether they want to or not!

My brother saw a program on Celiac recently. He lives in Delaware

so it would have been on a Philadelphia station. He was actually

telling me that a lot more people have it and are being diagnosed

a lot more than they used to be. I have been trying to get him tested

for months. Maybe it will finally sink in!!

;) i think a whole bunch of us should send emails to the daily talk shows like oprah and montel and request they do a show on celiacs--if there seems to be a lot of interest, then they may just do one--that would be so good for the general public to see--dont you think? deb

I think that would be a great idea to send emails to shows, for them to dedicate an entire show that would be amazing......alot of people are not aware of how severe the diease is. actually i was really not aware but now that i am seeing a nutritionist I def. think that I understand the diease alot better now. But we should def. try and do somthing along those lines . GREAT IDEA! :D

      And you were experiencing this burning sensation back then?

      Last one was about 2 yrs ago nothing untoward was seen

      I agree with @trents, could be worth having another scope. Oddly enough I'm in the same boat except my current odd sensation is near my appendix, I think I'll request a colonoscopy for peace of mind.

      Yes, take this up with your GI doc during the next visit. It might be a good idea to get an upper GI scoping done if you haven't had one done since diagnosis.

      I will be doing in the new year. I had a thought that it might be Diverticulitis but I have no other symptoms related to that.
