MommaGoose, our good friend and respected veteran member of the board, has informed me that she is going to eat worms. So i am starting this thread specifically for those of us who know and love her to cheer her up cuz she needs it. She's gonna kill me, but it'll take her awhile to get here so I've got time.

Goosey- You were one of my biggest supporters when I first joined this board. You were the one who encouraged me to take control of Celiac's and not let it control me when I was afraid to go horse back riding because of gluten.. If not for you, I wouldn't have spent last October riding till mu butt was sore. You rock..... there's no two ways about it and I think it's time for a love fest. :wub::wub::wub::wub::wub::wub:

No, she is not leaving us. But she is down and we have certainly all been there and will be there again. So, what Beverly is saying is that we need to tell Lisa that she is very much loved on this board and that we treasure her for all of her contributions. So, Lisa I am sending MANY HUGS to you and may you wrap yourself in them to give you comfort.

No she is not leaving us but she's bummed and wants to go eat worms:

Nobody likes me, everybody hates me,

Guess I'll go eat worms,

Long, thin, slimy ones; Short, fat, juicy ones,

Itsy, bitsy, fuzzy wuzzy worms.

Down goes the first one, down goes the second one,

Oh how they wiggle and squirm.

Up comes the first one, up comes the second one,

Oh how they wiggle and squirm.

It's called The Worm Song

Open Original Shared Link Oh .... gotta run... I SEE HER!

Tiffany- You're so funny!

2Boys4Me- I have to admit, I saw the hockey mask and thought of Friday the 13th :ph34r: (which is tomorrow).

MommaGoose- Night night, sleep tight and don't let the worms bite

MommaGoose! CANADA LOVES YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!

You can't eat worms, they haven't been confirmed gluten free yet...... :P

Got the package today! YIPPEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

Just to let you know: I am making grits casserole tomorrow! Oh, gingerbread halloweeen treats AND the jawbreakers are already all gone! You should have seen the kids' faces, each one having different coloured lips depending on what colour they got! :lol:

Regarding the stuff you sent me, what can I say, except you mean the world to me too and I thank God every single day that he sent me friends like you to carry me through the rough days, so my friend, let me carry you when you need it...... :)

Will call you tomorrow, just got home now from Mom's place. I stocked her up with all kinds of soups and stuff that will be easy to digest. Apparently, the doctor said she might be able to come home tomorrow so I went over and tidied up her place, washed her dishes, laundry etc. Also, I washed out and put away her ashtrays. It has been six days she has been in the hospital and hasn't had a cigarette and we are praying that she won't light up when she gets home. The doctors were really concerned about her CO2 intake, which was only at 88% (she has COPD from being a lifelong smoker). I promised her that if she quit, I would quit along with her..... THAT'S WHEN I'M GONNA NEED PLENTY OF CHEERING ON SO THERE IS NO WAY YOU CAN HAVE YOUR MOUTH FULL OF WORMS!!!!!

Hugs, luv ya Darlink!

Isn't there a movie out about a kid that eats worms? I know there's a book about it! MommaGoose, are you gonna eat them fried, boiled, sauteed....? Or you stick a hook in 'em and drop a line in the nearest pit for some bass. A fishfry sounds like more fun than eating worms!

Lisa,

Yes we love you girl....I'm glad you're not leaving us but not so happy that you're eating WORMS....eeek. :P

No more eating worms...no more sad faces. :)

Bev....I never heard this expression before....never heard this song either. I like it....will have to copy it. ;)

Yes, very cute song.....don't think I know that one. Always learning something here.....

Momma Goose - glad you're staying. If simply for the fact that you bring silly jokes and think we're funny on the 40-something thread, you are quite funny yourself, and you add a lot. :)

Pretty sure worms are gluten-free. ;)

See- I told you so :wub::wub::wub:

If I COULD eat worms, they would have to be covered in chocolate, stuufed with peanut butter then put in a Twinkie and deep fried. And that's just not gonna happen!

      Bob red mill gluten free oats

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified...

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you...

      High TTG-IgG and Normal TTG-IgA

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease...

The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining it often results in nutritional deficiencies such as anemia. NCGS does not damage the small bowel lining so your history of anemia may suggest you have celiac disease as opposed to NCGS. But either way, a gluten-free diet is in order. NCGS can cause bodily damage in other ways, particularly to neurological systems.
