Sillies, sorry to make some of you think I was upset and leaving never to come back to Sillyville. That was not the intention of my post. My comments really go back to the hubub (hubbub? hu-bubba?) with the Glutenease thread. I haven't even read the other thread where vaccinations are being discussed, only the posts here joking about vaccinations.

Of course when it comes to vaccinations it is personal for me, but I realize it is a controversial issue with many different opinions and just because I stand on one side of the fence doesn't mean I don't respect where someone else might stand, and I would never force my opinions and choices onto everyone else.

My point really, and what I didn't agree with, was the discussing and making light of other members (and/or their posts ) here in the Silly thread. I know as a community we aren't going to all agree on every topic, we all have had different experiences, different health issues, and different approaches to treating them, but I'd like to think that what unifies us all is being a part of this wonderful community and respecting each other as members.

Alex, I hope you aren't leaving. I'm sorry if you felt I was singling you out with my post. We both represent the different ends of the vaccination issue, showing that there isn't one or the other, right or wrong. It's kind of a beautiful thing in today's world where everything has to be either black or white and nothing in between.

I realize I am the hugest Pollyanna to have walked the face of this earth :embarrassedface:

Talk about excess Phluids!!!! I was soo red....plus it was filled since I filled it for the meeting....

I do love my coworkers, I was in the lab when the email went through saysing lunch was provided and it would be pizza....they stormed the meeting coordinator and when I came back there were a few bucks on my desk out of the lunch fund so I could go buy a salad @ the cafeteria...thoughtful! That was very nice of them.

Lisa- That IS a great shirt.

Uncle ray is in da house:

A very shy guy goes into a bar and sees a

beautiful woman sitting at the bar. After an

hour of gathering up his courage, he finally

goes over to her and asks, tentatively, 'Um,

would you mind if I chatted with you for a while?'

She responds by yelling, at the top of her

lungs, 'NO! I won't sleep with you tonight!'

Everyone in the bar is now staring at them.

Naturally, the guy is hopelessly and completely

embarrassed and he slinks back to his table.

After a few minutes, the woman walks over to

him and apologizes. She smiles at him and says,

'I'm sorry if I embarrassed you. You see, I'm

a graduate student in psychology, and I'm studying

how people respond to embarrassing situations.'

To which he responds, at the top of his lungs,

'What do you mean $200?'

      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.
