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!

      Hi @KathyR37 and a very warm welcome here.  I am so very sorry that you are going through all of this. I just wanted to check, have you ever been tested for any other gastrointestinal conditions? Cristiana

      @KathyR37, I would suspect that in addition to gluten intolerance, you have other food intolerances/sensitivities. This is very common in the celiac community. The most common offenders are oats, dairy, soy, corn and eggs with dairy and oats being the big two. Have you considered this? Have you tried keeping a food diary to detect patterns?

      thank you for your advice.   I have always taken them and I use Stonehedge because they are in a glass bottle, but don't have to be refrigerated.  I also like they are 3rd party tested and state gluten free. But you never know if something better has come alone over the years.

      Thank you for your response. I have already learned about the info you sent but i appreciate your effort. I am the only one in my family cursed by this disease. I have to cook for them too. I make sure that my utensils are free of gluten and clean after using them for other food. I use non-porous pots and pans and  gloves when cooking for them. One huge problem I have is a gag reflex out of this world and if something doesn't taste good it is not going down. Most commercially made breads and such taste like old cardboard.Pastas are about the same. I did find one flour that I like and use it regularly, but it is so expensive! All gluten free food is way more expensive. I only eat twice a day because I cannot afford to buy all that. We live on a very low income so my food purchases are quite limited.

      What you've described—the severe weight loss, the cycle of medications making things worse, and the profound fear of eating before leaving the house—is a heavy burden to carry for 15 years. It is absolutely not your fault. While everyone's journey with celiac is different, the struggles with the learning curve, social isolation, and dietary grief are feelings many in the community know all too well. Your question about whether you should just eat what you want and manage the symptoms is a heartbreaking one, born from years of frustration. It's crucial to know that the diarrhea is a sign of ongoing damage to your small intestine from gluten, and simply managing the symptom with Imodium doesn't stop that internal harm or the risk of other complications. The fact that you are still getting sick within an hour of eating, even while trying to be gluten-free, is a huge red flag that something isn't right. This could be due to cross-contamination in your kitchen (e.g., using a shared toaster, colander, or condiment jars), hidden gluten in foods, or the possibility of another concurrent condition like refractory celiac disease. Don't give up!  This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
