I am not sure which forum to post this under so I figure the moderators will move this to the proper location. Anyhoo, here is my question:

Who started Celiac.com and is responsible for maintaining this wonderful website? I would just like to say thank you to whomever you are. You have provided a source of great knowledge and encouragement to all of those who have been fortunate enough to stubble upon you in our quest to find answers, support and encouragement. I could not survive a gluten-free life without you.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Your efforts, and those of all the members of the forum are forever appreciated.

Because of the advise of others here and reading there trials and tribulations, I, after 15 + years have finally gotten some answers. And more importantly, my son will not have to suffer the way I did because I now know that you have to question your doctors, ask them for certain tests and be vigilant in finding the answers and causes to the symptoms.

I agree 100%. Thanks so much Scott. I don't know if you realise how much this forum means to us.

I felt so alone at first and now if I have any problem, I know where to come.

Heartfelt thanks!!!

Same here. I felt so isolated before joining this site. Now it's part of my regular morning routine. My health is so improved because of what I learned here. I can't begin to express my thanks adequately, but a BIG thank you, Scott.

I get Scott's newsletter also. I don't know where I would be and I certainly would not know nearly as much as I do now, if it wasn't for this web site put up by Scott. He is my life-saver.

      Going for upper endoscopy today

      Back home after the scope. Dr said as soon as he got in there it was clear signs of celiacs. Must be a decent amount of damage. I don’t remember the post procedure conversation as the anesthesia was still wearing off but that’s what my wife says anyway. Still the biopsy results to come back but pretty definitive and now I get to learn to live gluten fre...

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      There are several blogs where people test different beers using commercially available gluten testing kits. Guinness definitely tests positive for gluten. Something to be mindful of is that in some regions, foodstuffs containing less than 20 ppm gluten can be sold as 'gluten free'. However, due to the volume involved, a UK pint of beer at 19 ppm would contain...

      Going for upper endoscopy today

      First of all, I want to wish you the very best of luck with your procedure today. It's completely understandable to feel a mix of apprehension and hope. Your proactiveness in researching and advocating for that endoscopy was incredibly smart; securing that formal diagnosis is crucial for both insurance and long-term health management. While it's natural to...

      There are several blogs where people test different beers using commercially available gluten testing kits. Guinness definitely tests positive for gluten. Something to be mindful of is that in some regions, foodstuffs containing less than 20 ppm gluten can be sold as 'gluten free'. However, due to the volume involved, a UK pint of beer at 19 ppm would contain more gluten than the generally accepted as safe daily limit of 10 mg. I have seen gluten-free beers testing at between "undetectable" and 5-10 ppm. I have also seen a report of a positive home test on Daura Damm, which is sold as gluten-free beer - the manufacturer did not respond to the tester's query.

      First of all, I want to wish you the very best of luck with your procedure today. It's completely understandable to feel a mix of apprehension and hope. Your proactiveness in researching and advocating for that endoscopy was incredibly smart; securing that formal diagnosis is crucial for both insurance and long-term health management. While it's natural to worry that those five gluten-free days could affect the results, your logic is spot-on—it's highly unlikely your intestines healed completely in that short time, and the fact that your joint pain and stomach issues have flared back up aggressively after reintroducing gluten is a very strong, and unfortunate, sign that the inflammation is indeed present and active. It's also very common for people to look back and connect dots, like your lifelong migraines, once a potential celiac diagnosis is on the table, as it's a systemic condition with many non-gastrointestinal symptoms. I truly hope this scope provides the clear answers you need to finally start on the right path to managing your health and finding lasting relief from the fatigue and pain. Safe travels for your drive, and here's hoping for a definitive answer and a brighter, healthier chapter ahead.
