Hey!! Hey!! You too!!!

So in all seriousness, exactly what effect was our abundant usage of smileyfaces having on the board?

(Has Scott put us all on 'check once a year' status?.... :ph34r: )

Attention authorities: There has been a sillyville breach. I repeat - there has been a sillyville breach. Implement intervention protocol alpha.....

Um, Colleen, I think that you need to join the sillyville thread after THAT post. That's one of the funniest things I've read on this board in awhile :lol:

(that is an open invitation to all members, as well).

No. Only head codes.

Yeah, as in, "Take this wheat stalk and head 'em off at the pass!"

Yes, there could be a social breakdown here at the board, rife with misunderstandings and miscommunication ensuing from the loss of our 'Picture is worth a thousand nicer words' emoticons.

This is serious!

It is truly serious.

Look closely, for example, at the differences between these two sentences:

You are a disgusting pig. :angry:

You are a disgusting pig. :lol:

So vital is the emoticon to the inherent meaning of each sentence! And if you are telling more than ten people that they are disgusting within one post, man.. . . you're screwed now. . . .....

:huh::lol::rolleyes:

      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.
