Celiac Humor Thread

We all need some fun! Celiac is a serious topic, but there can be some funny things about it.

Tonight, I was reading a funny, irreverant blog called www.stuffwhitepeoplelike.com. Check out the blog and comments on the recent topic of "Hummus". There are several Celiacs representing in the comments section, myself included. Personally, I think it's all in good fun.

Does anyone remember the thread, You Might Be a Celiac If? Can someone link to it? I remember when I was first diagnosed, it made me laugh really hard when I needed a laugh. Something about all the uses for gluten-free bread...and the way we have all the bathrooms identified...made me feel like I wasn't alone.

P.S. I am a regular poster on this forum - I just grabbed this new name for fun and also because it's less identifiable to family members and coworkers who may lurk here!

My friend found this comic and sent it to me - I thought you all might enjoy it as well! It made me giggle (probably because I've had similar conversations with people) :)

Two blonde girls were working for the city public works department. One would dig a hole and the other would follow behind her and fill the hole in. They worked up one side of the street, then down the other, then moved on to the next street, working furiously all day without rest, one girl digging a hole, the other girl filling it in again.

An onlooker was amazed at their hard work, but couldn't understand what they were doing. So he asked the hole digger, 'I'm impressed by the effort you two are putting in to your work, but I don't get it -- why do you dig a hole, only to have your partner follow behind and fill it up again?'

The hole digger wiped her brow and sighed, 'Well, I suppose it probably looks odd because we're normally a three-person team. But today the girl who plants the trees called in sick.'

      Other symptoms that Celiac Disease can cause but resemble other diseases so the cause may be misdiagnosed. What Are the Symptoms of Celiac Disease?

      Thanks Scott. They are gluten-free but cross contaminated.

      Hernia symptoms after gluten exposure

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi there @MCAyr I have a small umbilical hernia which came about during my second pregnancy.   I can just about see it, and feel it, when I stand or sit, but it is far less noticeable when I lie down.  I always know when I am putting on weight because I can get pain and burning near the site, funnily enough not on the hernia itself but either side!  I would imagine bloating could cause the same effect as weight gain. In my case I don't think it is my bowel protruding but a bit of fat  - sorry,  I realise this isn't painting a very pretty picture.  But in truth it is scarcely noticeable.  It has never really got bigger in size. I was rather hoping that it could be operated on but here in the UK they don't seem to operate on every hernia anymore.  My GP isn't remotely worried about it. In a way, I should be thankful - it is like an early warning system that I need to go on a diet! Cristiana

      The hernia description would likely be unrelated to celiac disease, but you'd need to get it checked out by your doctor to be sure it's a hernia.
