Oh, wow! My friend keeps telling me I should watch that show...now I will, at least once. Keep reminding us, so I remember to program the vcr? Oh, argh! It's the same time as Veronica Mars!!! Must tape both!!!!

This is going to be complicated - have to have my parents tape one and tape the other at my apartment. So much to remember!

Thanks! I am sooo excited!!!! He will be home for a month, and then he goes back <_< . We are going to Vegas for our 4th ann. and I am :D:D:D:D:D !!!!!!!

But I don't want to change the subject to me, back to House, I bought the first season on DVD, I LOVE that show. I LOVE medicine though, and I am really NOT into the OC or crap like that. I like medical shows. If you like ER and Law and Order then I think this is the perfect show for you! (Now I sould like a "House, M.D." salesman!)

That's awesome Tiffany!!

Thanks!!!! I am all smiles!!! :D:D:D:D:D:D

Tell your husband Thank-you for giving his time and talent to serve our country. Also thank you for being a service wife. It is hard but know there are those who appreciate all he and you do.

It's funny--I didn't watch House until I joined the forum here and people began talking about the infamous Celiac episode. Now, I'm hooked, and so is my husband. :D Speaking of :D , Tiff, glad to see you smiling! :D

TONIGHT'S EPISODE SAYS IT IS PART ONE OF TWO. THAT MEANS PART TWO WILL BE MAY 9. YOU MAY NEED TO START WATCHING TONIGHT TO CATCH THE WHOLE THING.

Just a note so all of you will know!

Mango04 Enthusiast

I *think* tonight is part 1 and tomorrow night is part two...and next week is the celiac episode.

jerseyangel Proficient

Yes. tonight is part one--finishing tomorrow night. Celiac next week!!!

plantime Contributor

Thank you, that is so good to know! I will have to go set my tv for it tomorrow night!

TONIGHT'S EPISODE SAYS IT IS PART ONE OF TWO. THAT MEANS PART TWO WILL BE MAY 9.

I thought the same thing when I heard that the celiac episode was on the 9th and that this weeks episode was pt 1 of 2. So I checked the TV schedule. It is definitely airing two nights in a row. But if you plan to watch it tonight make a note of the fact that tonight it is on at 9pm, but tomorrow it is on at 8pm. The American Idol results show is always Wednesday at 9pm and I guess they didn't want to move it since it is the more popular of the two...

Texas Celiac Apprentice

Thanks for telling us. I am going to mark that date down. I really like that show but I might have missed that episode had you not told us!!

      It has been the most terrible illness ever! Going on 3 weeks now… I had chicken pox as a kid… crazy how much havoc this dormant virus has caused after being reactivated! No idea what even caused it to fire back up. I’m scared this pain and sensitivity is just never going to improve or go away

      OKJmartes. Skin and eyes. Also anxiety and frustration. I have read that Celiacs have more skin problems than people who do not have Celiacs. I take increased levels of Vit. D3, very high levels of B12 and an eating part of an avocado every day. KnittyKitty and others here can add what they take for skin health. A Dermatologist might identify the type of skin condition. By eyes you may mean eyesight problems not just irritated, red eyes. It is not very difficult to get a diagnosis of which eye condition is affecting your vision but much more difficult to find an effective remedy. The ophthalmologists I have seen have been only a little helpful. There seems to have been some advances in eye treatments that most of them are completely ignorant of or just won't add to their treatment plans.  Forcertain you may as well buy some remedy from a facebook ad but that is obviously risky and may actually damafe your eyes. However it is known that certain supplements , taken at the effectivelevels do help with eyesight. Two of them are Luten and zanthamin (spelling?)and certain anti-oxidants such as bilberry..    Hope this helps.

      I refused to do the gluten challenge for a long time because I knew how sick I would be: I have always had and still have positive antibodies and have so many symptoms my  GI was 💯 sure I would have a positive biopsy. I didn’t want to make myself sick to get a negative biopsy and be more confused by all this.  He couldn’t guarantee me a negative biopsy meant no celiac bc there may not be damage yet or it’s possible to miss biopsies where there’s damage but he was so sure and convinced me I needed that biopsy I went back on gluten. It was a terrible experience! I took pictures of the bloating and swelling and weight gain during the challenge. I gained 9 pounds, looked pregnant, was in pain , couldn’t work or function without long naps and the brain fog was debilitating. And in the end he didn’t get a positive biopsy… so I wish I had never wasted my time or health going through it. I haven’t been truly straightened  out since and I am currently battling a shingles infection at 43 and I can’t help but wonder if the stress I put my body under to try and get an official diagnosis has caused all this. Best of luck to you - whatever you decide. It’s not a fun thing to go through and I still don’t have the answers I was looking for

      It's completely understandable to struggle with the gluten challenge, especially when it impacts your health and studies so significantly. Your experience of feeling dramatically better without gluten is a powerful clue, whether it points to celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity. It's very wise of you and your doctor to pause the challenge until your holidays, prioritizing your immediate well-being and exams. To answer your questions, yes, it is possible for blood tests to be negative initially and become positive later as the disease progresses, which is why the biopsy remains the gold standard. Many, many people find the gluten challenge incredibly difficult due to the return of debilitating symptoms, so you are certainly not alone in that struggle. Wishing you the best for your exams and for obtaining clearer answers when you're able to proceed.
    • Scott Adams
      It's smart that you're seeing the gastroenterologist tomorrow. While it's possible this is a severe and persistent inflammatory reaction to gluten, the fact that the pain is movement-dependent and localized with tenderness is important for your specialist to hear. It could indeed be significant inflammation, but it's also worth ruling out other overlapping issues that can affect those with celiac disease. Is it possible you got some gluten in your diet somehow? This could be a possible trigger. Hopefully, tomorrow's appointment will provide clearer answers and a path to relief so you can get back to your lectures and enjoy your weekend. Wishing you all the best for the consultation.
