I have no idea where in NYC celiac3270 lives, but I e-mailed him after that plane accident just to make sure he is okay. I have e-mailed again, neither time getting a response. He usually doesn't go this long without checking his e-mail.

I really hope he is okay....... That boy has a special place in my heart. He's the first person to reach out to me when I stumbled upon this site......

I was wondering about him too!

Hopefully it's just something simple like their internet is down...

Karen, perhaps someone here has his phone # that they can PM to you?

I do, also, hope all is well :)

I know what you mean about celiac3270. He is so very special. Please let us know if you hear from him. Maybe his computer is down or he is working hard and has not checked his email.

The logs say his last activity was Yesterday, 09:52 PM... Hope this puts you at ease a little.

If I remember correctly I think I remember him mentioning once that he lives downtown, which is no where near where the plane hit. A lot of my friends live on the UES, and I don't think any other buildings besides the one the plane crashed into, were affected.

I'm sure he's fine, but please update us when you hear from him.

Whoa, sorry guys.

I'm fine, but I'm touched that you were concerned. I got a PM from kevsmom about an hour ago, or I wouldn't have checked this topic. Karen, I haven't been using that e-mail address regularly for a few months now (celiac3270king@gmail.com is a better one). I had been checking both, but as school becomes increasingly time consuming, I haven't been as diligent. That also explains my relative absence from the board; I try to read, but I haven't had the time to post.

Thank you for asking, though... it means a lot to me ;)

celiac3270, I'm so glad all is well with you!

I've sure missed you!

Nice to see ANY post from you, celiac3270. You were a major player when I first went on this board and it was better in those days, more pure and informational and not so much confrontation. I had been wondering just where you were and whether you even were a part of this forum anymore. It is good to know that you take a peek from time to time. We don't see as much of Katie either, she is probably busy with her life too and that is a good thing for both of you. I think once we get used to the fact the we have to eat gluten-free, we just accept it as part of the routine and don't dwell on it all the time or let it take up so much of our time. That is the way it should be. I come here occasionally to see what is up, take what I can from it, but don't really get too involved or excited over things anymore. Barbara

I am so glad to see that celiac3270 posted :D . I PM'd him asking him to do so. This is a copy of his reply to me:

Hi Cindy,

You can tell anyone else who was wondering that I've just taken a break. I'm doing fine-- great, actually... but I have a ton of work for school and I haven't really had a chance to post for the past few weeks. I still read the forum when I can, but the posting has been minimal. Don't be worried, but thanks for asking! Great to know that I've been missed.

Lots of love to you,

      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.):

      I am new here but celiac disease is not new to me. I was diagnosed with it at age 60. At the time I weighed a whopping 89 pounds. I was so ignorant to celiac so I buried myself in learning all about it and looking for food I could eat. I lost so much weight and stayed sick all the time. So to combat the sickness I was give all sorts of meds for loose bowels and vomiting. All that just made me sicker. Eventually I chucked it all and went back to eating like I had all my life. Now I am from the south and biscuits and gravy are a big part of our food, as are breaded foods, pasta, and sandwich bread. Through the years I would try to do the gluten free thing again and am doing it now. It has not helped any. Within and hour of eating I have to run to the bathroom. I am now 75 and am wondering if I should just forget it and eat what I like, take Immodium and live the best I can. I cannot eat before going anywhere for fear of embarrassing myself. Family and church dinners are out of the question unless I eat and run straight home. I am so frustrated I just want to sit down and cry or throw something. Does everyone go through all this?

      Oh yes I can understand the tiredness after going threw all that, must be exhausting especially on the mind I have high aniexty so I can understand that , I wish there more easier ways for people to get help , I had a MRI on my spine some years ago without anything it was really quick and no prep , I understand the need for  them to see better with the bowel ,but you think they would use something a little less traumatic  for ibd sufferers on the bowels by now ,I hope your feeling better today 🙏
