Got on here to find some giggles. I found some, but they quickly turned to sobs. I swear, if I hear 1 more person say, "At least it wasn't a cat or a dog, that would have been worse..." I shall SCREAM!!!

WIH??? Love is love :( Jeepers, I loved Mocha and only "knew" him by the pictures and you telling us all about his antics. What a sweet, wee lil' fella--I don't think I'll ever forget the sight of his nose in the paper roll. :wub:

He had such a happy life with your family, Rach. Hug each other a lot and let yerselphes feel ;)

Oh Rachel, I am so sorry about Mocha. Never saw the wee fella, but bunnies do worm their way into your hearts. Grieve now and then remember later :wub:

Max is my saving grace. He keeps looking at me like he's expecting me to explode at any second (I waited for the massive waterworks until they were at school), but I asked him if he was sad this afternoon and he said, "Not anymore... Can we get a dog tomorrow?!" :lol:

We just had the burial. Poor Maddie. My heart is breaking for her. Max on the other hand was eying the box, then the hole, then me... "can I do it?" he asks... Um no, since he wanted to throw the box, with "FIRE IN THE HOLE" to follow. Now he's singing a cartoonish song about a dead bunny. Jesse just pulled him aside to talk to him about sensitivity....

Watch out that Max doesn't try ( or succeed) to dig up the body. I have known kids that age that want to see what happens.

No, actually not my boys.

I shall SCREAM!!! I passed a mirror an hour ago and it looks like I've been in a major fight. I guess I have though. I'm going back and forth between fighting with God and repeating the Serenity prayer to myself. Mocha was so very loved in his short time with us. I'm just having a hard time holding my daughter while she sobs, clutching her chest crying that, "It just hurts so bad mama, my heart hurts so bad"

RIP Mocha bunny -_-

So sorry to hear about mocha bunny. I will keep your family and her in my prayers!

love,

Loey wub.gifwub.gifwub.gif

:lol:

I don't think he could if he tried. Jesse dug the hole so deep that I could barely reach to the bottom. We let him shovel the dirt back into the hole. He was satisfied with that ;)

:ph34r:

OK.....I confess.....

I used to dig up my long-dead hamsters. I would dig up all the wee bones, clean them off, and coat them with clear fingernail polish.

....in the name of science, naturally :P

Sorry to hear about sweet Mocha :(

Had some blood tests run today. I've had swollen lymph glands for 3 weeks WHILST on antibiotics. <_<

When do you get the test results?

Did you put the hamster bones back together like a museum dinosaur?

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
