this all started with elisabeth having a gluten problem, but not saying Celiac disease, maybe she does not have Celiac, or does not wish to share her problems with the rest of the world, maybe they will not let her go in to detail about it, I dont think we need to be so hard on someone when we would not want someone to doubt the severity of any of our conditions!

Explaining it to family and friends gets annoying, I can't imagine what a pain it would be to have to explain it to the world constantly. I don't blame her, but it would be good to get out some publicity.

I don't think she's doing gluten-free for the heck of it, because if she were, I think she'd talk about it more. Like, "I keep all my weight off with the gluten-free diet" bla bla bla. The fact that she IS so closed lipped about it tells me that she does have a gluten problem.

The other thing to think about is that Dr. Phil's wife, Robin, also has said that she doesn't eat gluten, however she said some time ago that she eats Ezekial bread and, if I am right, I don't think that is gluten-free. She is very vocal and could also be someone that could speak out in favor of this issue. Maybe we could go after her. Just a thought. Barbara

I just want to chime in on Angelina's lips here I'd bet my last dollar they are not enhanced as a matter of fact the skinny on her is that she had her top lip made smaller to match her bottom one. If you look at her pictures when she was a girl you will see that the top lip is actually bigger then it is now! Her lips are naturally very large.. my 14 year old daughter has a friend with lips that very same size (and they fit the rest of her features and are very pretty). Angelina is said to have had cheek implants (I of course can't say if this is true) but I don't think there is any lip enhancing going on at all.

I hate to be a naysayer about people marriages.. so I won't really comment on the Jolie/Pitt arrangement... but I think he will have his hands full, Brad is a regular guy (he may be a hollywood star now but he grew up as a regular kid) and Angelina is a Hollywood kid, we all know that she has done some weird things.. wearing billy bob's blood, the tattoos, when she got pregnant she ran out and got a tattoo in latin that says, "that which nourishes me destroy's me" its right across her belly. Now that to me is a bit odd. Yes I think Brad has got a major challenge in Angie.

I was thinking the same thing. I wonder how she gets along with his family, Mr. & Mrs. Typical Midwestern Family (salt of the earth kinda folks).

She sounds complex, yes, but very kooky!

      Potential celiac need advice

      By itsdunerie · Posted

      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.
