Woot!

OK -- so any South African/Irish/English/Greek coeliacs?

I'm Irish, grew-up in South Africa, lived in the States for twenty years, currently live in the UK and am hoping to successfully relocate to Rhodes or Crete later this Summer.

I was born in the UK, does that count?

Haven't lived there except a brief 2 yr spell for going on 20 yrs though...spent most of my 20's in Africa and the middle and far east...

Spent 6 months in rethymnon and xhania when I was 18... and 6 months in Calgary (and they like to think they are the most American city in Canada)

Hey, I'm confused about where I'm from! I was born in Cape Town, South Africa, to British parents, grew up in England, moved to US 23 years ago, and have lived most of my life in Texas. I think that makes me a Texan??

Glad to see you're back on the straight and narrow now!!! ;)

I expect you've found the gluten-free products have improved vastly since you were 8 yrs old :)

My mom is from Northern Ireland, dad is from Northern Rhodesia, and they lived in South Africa (Jo'burg) in the '70s before eventually coming to Canada.

      Why?

      "her stool study showed she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that." The wording of this part of the sentence does not make any sense at all. I don't mean to insult you, but is English your first language? This part of the sentence sounds like it was generated by translation software.

      What kind of stool test was done? Can you be more specific?

      Perhaps I should also have said that in addition to showing a very high response to gluten, her stool study showed that she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that.

      My daughter has celiac disease and has had for a long time. She fell loses strictly gluten-free diet and recently got rid of all cutting boards in any gluten in her house at all. She just had a stool test and it came back showing of gigantic response to gluten in her diet. What could be going on since she doesn't eat any gluten and is very careful about any...

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      I think sometimes the pain described here can be a result of a sort of 'perfect storm' of contributing factors. Recently I had an appalling bout of lower back pain, lower burning gut pain and what felt like cramps. I then started to think about what could have caused it and I realised it was several things that had set it off: I'd been carrying heavy luggage...

      I think sometimes the pain described here can be a result of a sort of 'perfect storm' of contributing factors.  Recently I had an appalling bout of lower back pain, lower burning gut pain and what felt like cramps.  I then started to think about what could have caused it and I realised it was several things that had set it off: I'd been carrying heavy luggage (back strain); I had been sitting down in a car for too long and wearing a tight belt (I have pudendal nerve issues and sacroiliac issues and this exacerbates the pain), and I had bloating and burning pain in my colon caused by eating too much soy, latte and caffeine, I guess putting further pressure in the lower abdomen.  I had this same pain prior to my diagnosis and a couple of years post-diagnosis, I'd quite forgotten how unpleasant it was.
