So glad you've made it through the first year. It gets so much easier after that first anniversary. :) So... Now you've made my day and I'm going to walk around with a goofy smile all day. Thanks.

Oh, and have a wonderful (gluten free) holiday!

Thank you for being a part of the board too! While I personally just love to see that little kitty in your avatar the most, I also love the help and advice you give to everyone. And that includes the questions you ask, because I sure know that I learn from answering questions as well as asking them. :)

Hi Tiff :D

Thank you for the lovely sentiment, and a big congratulations on getting through the first year!

I have learned a lot from you, too. Your knowledge of all things pharmacy has been so helpful.

I hope that you are having a nice holiday season--I was just thinking about you and your husband. I pray that he is well, and that possibly (?) he is able to be home for Christmas.

Take care, and don't be a stranger--I've missed you :D

I could have pretty much said the same thing, because I've learned so much this past year. We all learn from each other, it would have been so overwhelming without all you guys, and I would never have figured out all my food intolerances, and the adrenal and thyroid problems without this board.

I hope you all have a great Christmas.

Well thank YOU Tiffany. It's nice to be included in that group of very helpful people. I was just thinking last week that I hadn't seen any posts from you lately.

I'm glad you've passed your anniversary. It's a good feeling. I remember when we passed Ty's one year. It seems like so long ago.

I hope you have a happy holiday and I hope your husband can come home soon (if he hasn't already).

I second that; congratulations! We alll understand what a major deal this is - I've just passed my first year as well. You beat me to the punch by starting this thread...I was thinking of it but wasn't sure what to say! :P

We do learn from each other, and I am so grateful for you all and for this site. Practically everything I know about this condition and what to expect / be mindful of has come from all of you who have taken the time to share your experiences here. I would've gone crazy with all of the upheavals my body's been going through - especially with all these ' new' food allergies and intolerances - if you hadn't clued me in! Thank you all for being so warm and generous, especially at times where you weren't exactly feeling at your best yourselves. Have a wonderful Chrismas, everyone!

Naj.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.

      Taken Seriously

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.
