Common gluten eaters have handshakes. Perhaps we should have something else?

Maybe a secret code phrase:

1st person: " the wheat grows on the plain."

2nd: but the pain it causes, is not plain.

Or perhaps a secret signal.

One light in the watch tower if by land and 2 if by sea. Wait....wrong signal

What about the ASL for gluten-free?

Maybe we all wear a red flower behind our ear?

Yes, yes... we should have a bunch of secret signals.... 1st red flower behind left ear, 2nd we must cough into our right hand that is in the 'g' ASL shape, 3rd with the left hand we brush the (gluten) crumbs off our front... 4th say "The pain in Maine is in the whole wheat pane." Yes, yes... we must buy trench coats too..... and have sunglasses.

I forgot... there should be a burp or fart in there too... no, I guess not. That would be a dead give-away. Okay, secret names.... hey, nfffc (natural flavors from foreign countries), this is fvbnpbw (flat villi but no postive blood work). Not sure yet.. I want to think about this. I want a COOL secret name.

Hey, now.. . . ....don't be just carelessly employing vowels, as they cost money.

Um, as with Wheel of Fortune. . . . ....one always has to buy vowels, no?....

Secret spy names. . . .. .....I believe I would like to be called Ms. Maltodextrin. This adds a particular type of clandestine confusion and intrigue - - is she or is she not gluten-free?.. . . .... .from which country did she originate?....

I was also thinking about the name that my brother named his garage band back in the early eighties, and a moniker that would really work here. I could be FC.

Fecal Matter.

Man, this would be a terrific name for a racehorse. "Aaaaaaaaaand they're coming around the outside - - ahead by two lengths, IT'S FECAL MATTER -- they're now in the final turn .. ....""

Like the secret ways to hide gluten in foods?

I'm so excited, I just bought a cute trench coat.

I would like to suggest that we do just the opposite - - no secret handshakes nor code words. We need to put ourselves right out there and scream of all things gastrointestinal. Let us all create and wear costumes. I am going to make a huge, paper mache and plastic duodenum that I can walk about in.

Then everyone will start asking questions about celiac, dammit!! And it will ALL be worth it. .. . ..

:huh:

:lol:

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: This is too good!! Okay.. I'll buy a vowel or 2..

No, I'm not fvbnpbw.. no no I'm GIANT! (Hear me FART!) Gluten Intolerant And NO TESTING!!

YES!! I'm all for the costumes.. I can do a huge paper mache POO ... and have a fart pillow inside. We have a huge Goose Festival here at the end of Sept. (we're on the Canada goose flyway) and it would be a great time to walk around in a big Poo costume and answer questions... but do I have the guts??? :lol: Heck of an idea..!

NO MORE HIDING!!!

Righto!

...And I'll be the Marshall, the big duodenum leading the masses with a stiff endoscope hose as my baton.......

There must be music, and floats... . .......ahh, another parade.....! B)

"Be sure to drink your Ovaltine."

:lol::lol:

One of my favourite movies.

Don't let Emily be the grand marshall of the parade . . . last time she was in charge, the police were called, wild animals stampeded, and David Hasselhoff showed up and made a complete fool of himself.

Wow! Look at everything that happens when I go skiing. Glad to see you can continue the psilliness without me.

When we have the parade, be careful Charlie Sheen doesn't show up. He seems to be everywhere right now. Maybe he is one of us. He spews filthy potty words from his mouth and definitely has some brain fog.

I'll get my boys to paddle the life boat over to the psilly thread.

Please don't start on page 1. It will take you years to get to the current stuff and we will lose you!

      Trying to read my lab results

      Hi Scott, yes I have had symptoms for years and this is the second GI I have seen and he could not believe I have never been tested. He called later today and I am scheduled for an endoscopy. Is there a way to tell how severe my potential celiac is from the results above? What are the chances I will have the biopsy and come back negative and we have to keep...

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      I agree christina, there is definitely many contributing factors! I have the pain today, my pelvis, hips and thighs ache! No idea why. But i have been sitting at work for 3 days so im thinking its my back. This disease is very mysterious (and frustrating) but not always to blame for every pain.

      Why?

      "her stool study showed she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that." The wording of this part of the sentence does not make any sense at all. I don't mean to insult you, but is English your first language? This part of the sentence sounds like it was generated by translation software.

      What kind of stool test was done? Can you be more specific?

      Why?

      Perhaps I should also have said that in addition to showing a very high response to gluten, her stool study showed that she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that.
