Had to revive the "poop freaks" thread here because...

I just had my first real BM in over 4 months!

OMG! I 'm more excited than when the Colts won the Super Bowl. Had to share with someone, the family wasn't quite as thrilled as I thought they might be. Although I think I lost them when I invited them in for a look B)

:P Where else could you share you excitement! Good job in the john, John!!!

It's sad sometimes that simple things are a really big deal. :( . You might have some ups and down along the way, but you seem to be on a good road.

Are we not an interesting bunch? :(

Congratulations!!!!!!!!

You made me laugh, I was remembering when My kids were first potty trained and anyone unfortunate enough to be visiting when they performed had to look.

And just think, now you

People really take pooing for granted. I'm so glad you finally had a normal one. I sure know what that feels like after many years of D.

Woohoo! So what if it is TMI, it's something only your friends here would totally understand. :):)

Isn't it amazing about the little things that makes us truely jump for joy these days. I know when I first got mine, I splurged on this really expensive gluten-free cake!

Congratulations, and keep up the good work! ;)

It is a bit like potty training revisited, and I need to brag too, mine are starting to sink!

Never, ever would I have thought something so basic would be so fascinating.

      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.

      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.
