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.

Sent this link to my wife over IM and she said..

LOL!

Okay, that is just hysterical. The "hippie store". I love it. I do feel like a freak when we go to Wild Oats.*laugh*

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!

Canadian Karen Community Regular

LOL! Sure, no pressure, eh?

I'll have to work on it - going to my Moms and Nannys today with the boys.....

Hugglees!

      Dang......did it again and yeah I should admit I am 63 with clumsy phone thumbs. I started feeling better quickly and a doctor a year later said I had to eat  poison (gluten) every day for a month so he could formally diagnose me and NO FREAKING WAY. I couldn't then and can't imagine putting my body through that crap (no pun intended) on purpose ever again.  Why ingest poison for a month to have some doctor say Hey, All you Have To Do Is Never Eat poison Again..

      15 years ago my best friend 'diagnosed' me as Celiac. Her little nephew had been formally diagnosed and her observations of me dealing with brain fog, stomach problems and other stuff had her convincing me to try going gluten free. Oh my heavens, within 3 days, no lie, I felt human again. Took me about a y

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.
