Celiac Disease was referenced on the NCIS episode airing 3/31/09(today). The accountant is in interrogation and is about to take his pills and says that the doctors said he might have celiac disease and would have to cut gluten out of his system. He doesn't say that he has the disease, but that doctors are unsure what is wrong with him and he takes pills.

Just thought some might find it interesting that the disease was mentioned again. Its a good thing that it is becoming more popular! :)

I saw it! The man says something like "they think I have Celiac and that I'm eating too much gluten. I didn't even know I was eating "GLUTEN". (he said gluten kind of sarcastically)

I don't watch that show, but my mom does and she mentioned it to me. I'm glad that my mom is so supportive of me! ;)

My question is....what were the pills??....he also mention that "you don't want to be in a small apt with me when I haven't taken my pills".

Did he mean like a pill that subdues anger?? or gas??? haha or WHAT?!?!?!

I suffer from this and several other digestive issues (lactose intolerance and likely irritable bowels)...I pretty much can't win...so I am always looking for answers - doctors have told me mixed things and I don't have the money to pursue it any further (at the moment) while they "guess" - last I heard , one doctor was 90 percent sure that I had Celiac Disease and said my cilia was slightly less than half the size it should be? Sounds like a strong indication, right? Next doctor said the first doctor was wrong (only the first doctor actually tested me...the second doctor saw the results though)...I haven't had the time nor money to pursue this any further.

Anyone have any input about any of these ramblings?

Thanks CL

      Trying to read my lab results

      Hi Scott, yes I have had symptoms for years and this is the second GI I have seen and he could not believe I have never been tested. He called later today and I am scheduled for an endoscopy. Is there a way to tell how severe my potential celiac is from the results above? What are the chances I will have the biopsy and come back negative and we have to keep...

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      I agree christina, there is definitely many contributing factors! I have the pain today, my pelvis, hips and thighs ache! No idea why. But i have been sitting at work for 3 days so im thinking its my back. This disease is very mysterious (and frustrating) but not always to blame for every pain.

      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.

      Why?

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

      Why?

      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.
