I don't think itty bitty ones have the ability to spray you. However this isn't something I wanted to be wrong about, so I moved back quickly when he turned around:)

Yes I believe that the little ones can still stink just as bad as there mommas and daddys and you have to remember that they have a learning curve that can still get you. babies snakes as my beloved Crockdile Hunter Steve Irwin says the babies are just as dangerous as the big ones.

He is so cute. My grandparents used to keep skunks as pets, two of them. On the rare times we would visit they would be the first things I would look for. Most of the time we found them under the bed by the chamber pots. They can be really sweet animals but they also know when they don't like someone. A boyfreind I had also had one who hated me. If I got up to go potty at night I had to climb and jump the furniture to the bathroom door to avoid being bitten. Glad I wasn't actively GI Celiac at the time.

      Thanks for the reply.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
