I have been here on this site for over a year and I have gotten the most help that anyone dx with Celiac can have. The answers aren't always here, not always for a solution, as best we try, but also, which is most important ...for the support and life shared experiences.

I remember when this site was a fun place to go when you were feeling bad. Someone always seemed to pick you up and made you feel better. There were friends that made you feel better, even though you felt like crap.

There are a number of people with an alternative life style on this site. I do think that all should be open to a fluid life of others.

AND THIS IS THE FULL MO0N OF OCTOBER, ANY ONE TO BOOGY DOWN?? :lol::lol:

Are You calling ME alternative?

I said it before and I'll say it again:

Trick or treat

Smell my feet

Give me something

Good to eat

I don't care

If you don't care

I'll pull down your underwear :P

How does a man show that

he is planning for the future?

He buys two cases of beer.

They better be gluten free!

This one is from my 75 year old uncle:

the New Living Will Form

I, __________________________, being of sound mind and body, do not wish to

be kept alive indefinitely by artificial means.

Under no circumstances should my fate be put in the hands of pinhead

politicians who couldn't pass ninth-grade biology if their lives depended

on it or lawyers/doctors interested in simply running up the bills.

If a reasonable amount of time passes and I fail to ask for at least one of

the following:

______a Bloody Mary,

______a Margarita

______a Scotch and soda

______a Martini

______a Vodka and Tonic

______a Steak

______Lobster or crab legs

______The remote control

______a Bowl of ice cream

______The sports page

______Chocolate

it should be presumed that I won't ever get better.

When such a determination is reached, I hereby instruct my appointed person

and attending physicians to pull the plug, reel in the tubes and call it a

day. At this point it is time to call the New Orleans Jazz Funeral Band

to come do their thing at my funeral, and ask all of my

friends to raise their glasses to toast the good times we ha ve had.

I also hear that in Ireland they have a Nursing Home with a Pub. The

patients are happier and they have a lot more visitors. (Sounds like my

kind of Nursing Home)

mommida Enthusiast

A nursing home with a pub? Sounds like a good way to trick the old crows into the nursing home, but kind enough that they won't mind in the long run. <_<:D:D

Jake was dying. His wife sat at the bedside.

He looked up and said weakly:

"I have something I must confess."

"There's no need to," his wife replied.

"No," he sisisted,

"I want to die in peace, I slept with your sister,

her best friend, your best friend, and your mother!"

"I know," she replied,

"now just rest

and let the poison work."

A woman came home, screeching her car into the driveway, and ran into the house. She slammed the door and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Honey, pack your bags. I won the lottery!"

The husband said, "OMG!! What should I pack, beach stuff or mountain stuff?"

"Doesn't matter," she said, "Just get the *ell out."

ROTFLMAO

I need a joke, okay here's one.

A young man enters a monastery and is given the task of copying manuscripts and as he is doing this he begins to wonder how many times they have been copied and whether or not anyone ever made a mistake and what if he is just copying mistakes. It bothers him. He goes to the priest and tells him and the priest says, "don't worry, just do your work" but he can't, he thinks about it all the time and so one day when he sees the Abbot he tells him his fear and the Abbot says, "don't worry, just do your work". Later that day no-one can find the Abbot and then someone remembered seeing him going down into the tombs where the original manuscripts were stored and they go looking for him. As they reach the top of the stairs they hear sobbing and they run down the stairs to find the Abbot very distraught, "what is wrong, what is wrong" they cry and the Abbot through his tears says, "it says CELEBRATE". :ph34r:

An Irish Priest and a Rabbi get into a car accident. They both get out of their cars and stumble over to the side of the road. The Rabbi says, "Oy vey! What a wreck!" The Priest asks him, "Are you all right Rabbi?" The Rabbi responds, "Just a little shaken."

The Priest pulls a flask of whiskey from his coat and says, "Here, drink some of this it will calm your nerves." The Rabbi takes the flask and drinks it down and says, "What are we going to tell the police?" "Well," the Priest says, "I don't know what your aft' to be tellin' 'em but I'll be tellin' them I wasn't the one drinking."

This is just an observation ... but I only clicked this by accident, I wasn't going to open this thread at all...

Since MommaGoose is one of those complaining about "atmosphere" then this thread does nothing to help...

I realise now its a joke....I didn't until I opened it so I just thought "ho hum..another thread I won't bother with"

if someone wants to copy this then perhaps all those who ignore me can alsdo see this?

Canadian Karen Community Regular

Okay, going out on a limb here cuz I'm pretty well at my wit's end and fed up.

I think what Lisa was trying to attempt to do was lighten the mood a little bit, because quite frankly, there has been quite a bit of anal retentiveness on this board lately. It seems that no matter what you post, SOMEONE is offended. It's getting to the point where you are afraid to post ANYTHING, cuz someone will chime in that has taken it the wrong way and is in someway offended. If I posted asking people who have brown eyes if they are more sensitive to light, I am pretty well guaranteed that SOMEONE will post that they feel offended, because they have blue eyes, and feel left out that they can't contribute!

Sheesh! Lighten up folks! Lately it feels like everyone is permanently PMSing!

Okay, go ahead, bash away at me now......

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias! Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.
    • Matthias
      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen1Nc7EtAlJyJbU8EhB89ElCGFPRavEQkTFHv9V2Zh1EMAPRno7UajBpLCQ-1JfC5jKUyzfgsf7jN5L6yfZSgjhnwEbg6KKwWrKeghga8W_CAhEEw9N0.eDBrhYWsjgEFud6ZE03iun0-AEaGfNS1q4ILLjZz7Fs&dib_tag=se&keywords=buckwheat%2Bgroats&qid=1769980587&s=grocery&sprefix=buchwheat%2Bgroats%2Cgrocery%2C249&sr=1-4&th=1 Takes about 10 minutes to cook. 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.
