Okay - my BIL writes a song for me and my Mother (both of us have Celiac). Think of the song from Flashdance - 'She's a Maniac, Maniac..........ok got that? Here are the lyrics that fit that tune

I'm a Celiac, Celiac, don't you know

And I can't have me no gluten anymore...

I'm a Celiac, Celiac, that's for sure

And I gotta do my shoppin' at the hippie store

Okay that's all he's got so far. Also, the ref. to the hippie store is that Mother has to shop at a co-op health food store run by legitimate hippies to get gluten-free baked goods and mixes. This is totally foreign to her so it's funnier if you know her. Still when they called last night singing this song over the phone I was on the floor LMAO! Then my 4 yr. old niece starts singing it when they were finished....it was tooooo funny! (to me anyway). Seems like there's not that much positive to share on this board sometimes and when something is funny it relates to some retarded doctor. So this is funny without the aggravation we usually see here.

On this topic here are two I got from a friend at work:

Kevin's Song - (Sung to the Music of With or Without You by U2) (ASCAP) All rights reserved

"And you give your wheat away, And you give your wheat away

With or With Au Jus, I can't live, with or with Au Jus "

Sung to American Pie by Don McLean (ASCAP) All rights reserved.

Bye Bye, Cinnamon Apple Pie,

Drove my Chevy to the levee,

But the levee was dry,

Poor Ol Kevin couldn't have oats, barley or rye,

Saying this will be the day that I die,

This will be the day that I die.

Here's the original lyrics to the song. let's have a field day!

Just a steel-town girl on a Saturday night, lookin' for the fight of her life

In the real-time world no one sees her at all, they all say she's crazy

Locking rhythms to the beat of her heart, changing movement into light

She has danced into the danger zone, when a dancer becomes a dance

It can cut you like a knife, if the gift becomes the fire

On a wire between will and what will be

She's a maniac, maniac on the floor

And she's dancing like she's never danced before

She's a maniac, maniac on the floor

And she's dancing like she's never danced before

On the ice blue line of insanity is a place most never see.

It's a hard won place of mystery, touch it, but can't hold it

You work all your life for that moment in time, it could come or pass you by

It's a push-shove world, but there's always a chance

If the hunger stays alive

There's a cold kinetic heat struggling, stretching for defeat

Never stopping with her head against the wind

She's a maniac, maniac, I sure know

And she's dancing like she's never danced before

She's a maniac, maniac, I sure know

And she's dancing like she's never danced before

[solo]

It can cut you like a knife, if the gift becomes the fire

On a wire between will and what will be

She's a maniac, maniac, I sure know

And she's dancing like she's never danced before

[repeats out]

OK- I got a first verse.

Just a hungry girl on a Saturday night

Gonna give some chef the fight of his life

In the medical world no one sees her at all, they all say she's CRAZY

Oh my! The apple pie song is a riot!!! Thanks for sharing!

I never knew that Maniac song had to many lyrics....well there are enough creative people on here to replace them all with appropriate gluten free humor I'm sure. Canadian Karen....I know you've got something to add as you are a great writer after all. No pressure of course :D

Berneses....I love it!

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after eating them. If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.

      Under the circumstances, your decision to have the testing done on day 14 sounds very reasonable. But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      After the birth of my daughter nearly 6 years ago, my stools changed. They became thin if they happened to be solid (which was rare) but most of the time it was Bristol #6 (very loose and 6-8x a day). I was on various medications and put it down to that. A few years later I went on this strict "fruit and meat" diet where I just ate meat, fruit, and squash...

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in hospitals or institutional care and I'm guessing your physician would be willing to grant you a diagnosis of gluten sensitivity (NCGS) even if your celiac testing comes up negative. Also, you need to be aware that oats (even gluten free oats) is a common cross reactor in the celiac community. Oat protein (avenin) is similar to gluten. You might want to look at some other gluten free hot  breakfast cereal alternatives.

      After the birth of my daughter nearly 6 years ago, my stools changed. They became thin if they happened to be solid (which was rare) but most of the time it was Bristol #6 (very loose and 6-8x a day). I was on various medications and put it down to that. A few years later I went on this strict "fruit and meat" diet where I just ate meat, fruit, and squash vegetables. I noticed my stools were suddenly formed, if a bit narrow. I knew then that the diarrhea was probably food related not medication related. I tried following the fodmap diet but honestly it was just too complicated, I just lived with pooping 8x a day and wondering how I'd ever get and keep a job once my children were in school.  This past December I got my yearly bloodwork and my triglycerides were high. I looked into Dr. William Davis (wheat belly author) and he recommended going off wheat and other grains. This is the first time in my life I was reading labels to make sure there was no wheat. Within 2 weeks, not only were my stools formed and firm but I was only pooping twice a day, beautiful formed Bristol #4.  Dr. Davis allows some legumes, so I went ahead and added red lentils and beans. Nervous that the diarrhea would come back if I had IBS-D. Not only did it not come back, it just made my stools even bigger and beautiful. Still formed just with a lot more width and bulk. I've also been eating a lot of plant food like tofu, mushrooms, bell peppers, hummus etc which I thought was the cause of my diarrhea before and still, my stools are formed. In January I ran a genetics test because I knew you had to have the genes for celiac. The report came back with  DQ 2.2 plus other markers that I guess are necessary in order for it to be possible to have celiac. Apparently DQ 2.2 is the "rarer" kind but based on my report it's genetically possible for me to have celiac.  I know the next step is to bring gluten back so I can get testing but I am just not wanting to do that. After suffering with diarrhea for years I can't bring myself to do it right now. So that is where I am!
