I am so totally addicted to the topic of gluten. Is this good or bad? I eat it, sleep on it, drink it, think it and even dream about it. You know as in dreaming about a spread of food and avoiding what I can't eat. (I wish I could dream about eating all the forbidden food)

If I have to make a new years resolution, the top one would be to chill out and relax and minimise my time on the computer researching coeliac and other related subjects. I tell you my computer never gets out of c drive (coeliac drive). First thing I visit is my emails, and then I am off on my drive for everything coeliac, and before I know, and hour has gone and the housework is still waiting for me! or else I am late for work, yet again. That is the bit I hate the most.

It's all of yours fault, ;) someone led me to here, and whammo, and I just can't seem to leave this site for one day.

Is there a forum out there that might help me? :rolleyes: I hope not.

Is there anybody else out there with this problem, maybe we could support each other. :lol:

Cathy

This is probably a too hard a question to answer, but that is okay. Maybe there is not a hope for me and I will just have to continue as I have been, and enjoy every moment of it.

Well, I do the very same thing. Of course, I ought to be here, since I'm a moderator, right? :ph34r:;).

It is normal for you to still be researching, as celiac disease requires a lot of knowledge to stay safe. Plus people are so great here, I would miss them if I don't 'check in' frequently!

As for being late for work, maybe you want to get up earlier so you have enough time to come here before work. And set a timer to remind you to get going, and make it a habit of leaving the computer when the timer goes off. Because I know that otherwise you can lose track of time (at least I do that).

What a nit wit I am, somehow I duplicated this post. When will I ever learn?

I will just slink back in embarassment.

Oh, silly, it can happen to anybody! No need to call yourself names, Scott will delete the other post soon, and most people will never know (oh, right, since you told on yourself, I guess they will after all :blink: ).

i think at some point, many of us have felt like you have. there is so much to learn, to REALLY learn, and you feel like you have to know it all. i think it kind of goes in cycles.....

hey, we are just happy to have you here :) let us know if we need to chide you ;)

it's kind of hard not to think about it all the time when you have to watch EVERYTHING that goes near your mouth. i don't have celiac---but it is on my mind all the time because of my girls.

maybe we need to spend more time on the thread that is just for talking about "other" stuff.

My solution to this very same problem is that I'm going to work on seeing if I can start a local support group so that I'm at least getting some celiac-related face to face interaction with people (although I love the people I've met on the board!). I also have a friend who does auto-immune-related research -- actually, he does the fundraising stuff and his partner does the lab stuff -- I've decided I'm going to ask if he needs anyone to volunteer with grant-writing and fundraising.

Okay I am out of the closet. I too got hooked on the topic. Mostly I feel the need to help others as you folks have helped me get my life back. Before the forum I was so sick, and now I am in awe that I am healthy again.

eleep, that is exactly what I am in the process of doing, joining up with a local person and trying to form a support group in my home town, she has lived with the disease for about 30 years, and me just a mere 11 months.

It will be a challenge and I am looking forward to it, putting faces to names.

I think I will be here on the net a bit more, because in four more working days, I am on holiday for 7 weeks, and it is summer. Way to go. Watch out beaches, here I come.

And next year, I hope to reclaim at work the 2 hours a day I let go at the beginning of the year so that I could concentrate on my diet and cooking and just getting around coelaic. It worked, and I am ready to take life head on again. It is the worst two hours of the day I am trying to get back, but it is money in the bank, and life shouldn't be too easy all the time.

But like you, I love the people on this forum, it just takes a bit longer to get to know everyone.

Cheers.

Cathy

Hi Cathy

i can totally relate! especially the first few months i honestly bought like 6 books about celiac, subscried to two gluten-free magazines and was constantly on the internet. i also had nightmares about eating gluten. i feel less into it now and have really just narrowed my time down to this website whichi still feel like to go on everyday!!

Gluten is my hobby. :) I love reading new research about the disease. For me I was totally absorbed for a few months, now I just cruise a few of my favorite boards and try not to spend too much time.

      So I've been dealing with chasing the name celiac because of my body actively dealing with health issues related to celiac though not eating. Diagnosed in 1994 before foods eliminated from diet. After 25 years with former pcp I googled celiac specialist and she wasn't because of what ive been through. I wanted my results to be sent to my pcp but nothing was...

      Celiac Disease and Longevity: Can Treatment and Healing Improve Long-Term Survival?

      Thanks for the prompt reply. Interesting that blood test could be caused by other things. I am sure Dr Fincher will get to the bottom of it. I know he ate nowhere near that amt of gluten before the endoscope. Always interested in any new info abt celiac. U can not trust what is said on fb- That would be a piece of bread a day. He didn't even make that...

      So I've been dealing with chasing the name celiac because of my body actively dealing with health issues related to celiac though not eating. Diagnosed in 1994 before foods eliminated from diet. After 25 years with former pcp I googled celiac specialist and she wasn't because of what ive been through. I wanted my results to be sent to my pcp but nothing was sent.I have email copies.I did one zoom call with np with team member from celiac specialist in Nov 2025 and she asked me why I wanted to know why I wanted the celiac diagnosis so bad, I sad I don't, its my life and I need revalidaion because its affecting me.KB stated well it shows you are.I asked then why am I going through all this.I was labeled unruly. Its been a celiac circus and medical has caused anxiety and depression no fault to my own other than being born with bad genetics. How is it legal for medical professionals to gaslight patients that are with an ailment coming for help to be downplayed? KB put in my records that she personally spent 120min with me and I think the zoom call was discussing celiac 80 min ONE ZOOM call.SHE is responsible for not explaining to my pcp about celiac disease am I right?

      I've noticed with my age and menopause my smell for bread gives me severe migraines and I know this.Its alarming that there are all these fabulous bakeries, sandwich places pizza places popping up in confined areas.Just the other day I suffered a migraine after I got done with my mri when a guy with a brown paper bag walk in front of me and I smelled that fresh dough bread with tuna, I got a migraine when we got home.I hate im that sensitive. Its alarming these places are popping up in airports as well.I just saw on the news that the airport ( can't remember which  one)was going to have a fabulous smelling bakery. Not for sensitive celiacs, this can alter their health during their travel which isn't safe. More awareness really NEEDS to be promoted, so much more than just a food consumption!FYI I did write to Stanislaus to let them know my thoughts on the medical field not knowing much about celiac and how it affects one.I also did message my gi the 3 specialist names that was given on previous post on questions on celiac. I pray its not on deaf door.
