I WISH so bad it was my dog, but it's not. Actually, Viola sent it to me because when I first joined the board she PM'd me to find out about my user name: Berneses and if I had a Bernese Mountain dog. I told her that i didn't, but wanted one more than anything and she sent me some great shots she had. I'm not sure where she found this one (there are a few Berners in her dog club). I have never met a Bernese Mountain Dog I didn't like.

As soon as we get a house I am going to have 50 running around the back yard. Actually, I was the one who was going to start the Bernese Mountain Dog Center for People who Can't Digest Good ( from Zoolander) where the gluten-free food flows and the puppies run amok! B

I always thought it was Burmese, DUH!!!! :P

Karen

Guest BERNESES

That's so funny- I did too! I was like, "Wow! These dogs come from Burma- cool!" the first time I met one. Then I googled it and I was like "Oh, duh!" I guess they're from the Bernese region of the Alps. A little less exotic, but still beautiful doggies.

And I could still use that puppy hug as it seems some posters are still feeling feisty. WTH is going on? Was it really a full moon? maybe some people haven't recovered yet. Jeez! B

Guest BERNESES

People have definitely NOT recovered- this place is starting to make me really mad. Maybe I'm the one who needs a break.

Just let it roll off your back, I already learned that lesson......

Oh my God! that "Leave my Wife Alone" picture is GREAT! Is that Mr. Canadian Karen? He looks like a hockey player. Where in Canada are you? B

Yep, that's Mr. Canadian Karen, a.k.a. Terry. Hockey player? I WISH! Nope, he's a teacher (he teaches Grade 3). I was born and raised in a suburb of Toronto called Scarborough (home of Mike Myers), but a year ago moved the family about 45 minutes east of Toronto.

Oh no,and it's in the thread I started :(

Hey maybe it's the time of year?

I need Karen's shell to hide in-tell me when it's safe to come out! :unsure:

Chin up!

Karen,I'm loving your 'Mr Canadian Karen' avatar.LOL ;)

Guest BERNESES

Nikki- In no way is what's going on your fault! And don't you DARE feel bad. You already have enough to deal with. Maybe we can just get a big turtle shell and all crawl inside together.

All i was trying to do was keep the thread productive in helping you but apparently I am now a "cry-baby" "whiner" and a tattle tale. How's that for adult language? grrrrrrr. Maybe I need to post a picture of a Doberman instead of a puppy.

Canadian Karen Community Regular

Throw your hubby up there!

Nikki, don't you think in any way, shape, or form that you are in any way responsible for that. There just seems to be many differences of opinion here lately...... How is your hubby?

Hugs.

Karen

Hope you are well-and keeping outta trouble!

Yep - I do! Never met a real Canadian I didn't like come to think of it. My husband, flying beagle and I often contemplate moving up there but I don't know if you'd have us. especially the beagle- it hurts when he lands on your face.

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      Are Bobresmill gluten free oats ok for sensitive celiacs?
    • jenniber
      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining it often results in nutritional deficiencies such as anemia. NCGS does not damage the small bowel lining so your history of anemia may suggest you have celiac disease as opposed to NCGS. But either way, a gluten-free diet is in order. NCGS can cause bodily damage in other ways, particularly to neurological systems.
