After my EGD today I've been a little disappointed. I thought I was doing good. Anyway, my husband is wanting to plan another weekend trip over the mountain, through the woods to grandma's house. I did not have a good visit last time as I did not feel well. I told hubby that next time I was bringing/making all of my food, and figured mil would get offended, but couln't chance it. Well I talked to her tonight and told her in leiu of everything, not to try and accomidate me that I would take care of myself. She was actually very happy :rolleyes: I told her I would clean off part of the counter and feed myself. When I am at my parents my mom lets me clean the kitchen and do all of the cooking. What a good mom! :wub: Plus she enjoys being taken care of for the week. So this is a huge weight lifted for me, because I did not want another stressed visit.

Good for YOU! Sometimes just speaking up for yourself really is all that it takes!

I think she was as relieved as I was. I guess I shouldn't assume things. I've always tried to stay clear of confrontation with her cause it can get uncomfortable. But I think next visit will be much better.

Lucky you. On Easter I ate ham with nothing else. Couldn't even eat the potatos au graten. I wish I could just do the cooking. <_<

Hi,

I'm so proud of you for taking care of your own health first. After being on this diet for several years, I can honestly say that taking our own food along is really the only way we can be sure that we will be safe. I noticed last week as I tried to explain to a friend that I would bring my own lunch when I come to her house next week for a group luncheon, that she was highly resistant, until I just kept pressing the point that these food intolerances are serious. Up to then she apparently hadn't even known I had food intolerances, but now she does, and I will tell her more as time goes by, even though I've known her for years and years. It takes patience, persistence, and the belief that we are worth the fight that it takes to convince people that our own health must come before anything else if we are to truly survive and thrive. Good work! Welda

Well, it's that time again for another trip to the inlaws. Last one didn't go as planned. Anyway, now with me being extra careful, I absoulutely told her I wouldn't eat anything! She obviously doen't understand what that means because she kept asking my husband for a week straight if I could eat this or that! :blink: He finaly said to her to shut up about it that she is not going to eat anything but what she makes because it is easier that way! I am planning on taking my new electric skillet to cook in and get a bunch of produce from the store when we get there. I'm a big girl and I can take care of myself! :lol: Hubby and I were talking about how she would deal with it if it were our kids. He and I both said that she would have to get over it if she wanted to see them.

      Curious question

      So I've been dealing with chasing the name celiac because of my body actively dealing with health issues related to celiac though not eating. Diagnosed in 1994 before foods eliminated from diet. After 25 years with former pcp I googled celiac specialist and she wasn't because of what ive been through. I wanted my results to be sent to my pcp but nothing was...

      Celiac Disease and Longevity: Can Treatment and Healing Improve Long-Term Survival?

      Thanks for the prompt reply. Interesting that blood test could be caused by other things. I am sure Dr Fincher will get to the bottom of it. I know he ate nowhere near that amt of gluten before the endoscope. Always interested in any new info abt celiac. U can not trust what is said on fb- That would be a piece of bread a day. He didn't even make that...

      So I've been dealing with chasing the name celiac because of my body actively dealing with health issues related to celiac though not eating. Diagnosed in 1994 before foods eliminated from diet. After 25 years with former pcp I googled celiac specialist and she wasn't because of what ive been through. I wanted my results to be sent to my pcp but nothing was sent.I have email copies.I did one zoom call with np with team member from celiac specialist in Nov 2025 and she asked me why I wanted to know why I wanted the celiac diagnosis so bad, I sad I don't, its my life and I need revalidaion because its affecting me.KB stated well it shows you are.I asked then why am I going through all this.I was labeled unruly. Its been a celiac circus and medical has caused anxiety and depression no fault to my own other than being born with bad genetics. How is it legal for medical professionals to gaslight patients that are with an ailment coming for help to be downplayed? KB put in my records that she personally spent 120min with me and I think the zoom call was discussing celiac 80 min ONE ZOOM call.SHE is responsible for not explaining to my pcp about celiac disease am I right?

      I've noticed with my age and menopause my smell for bread gives me severe migraines and I know this.Its alarming that there are all these fabulous bakeries, sandwich places pizza places popping up in confined areas.Just the other day I suffered a migraine after I got done with my mri when a guy with a brown paper bag walk in front of me and I smelled that fresh dough bread with tuna, I got a migraine when we got home.I hate im that sensitive. Its alarming these places are popping up in airports as well.I just saw on the news that the airport ( can't remember which  one)was going to have a fabulous smelling bakery. Not for sensitive celiacs, this can alter their health during their travel which isn't safe. More awareness really NEEDS to be promoted, so much more than just a food consumption!FYI I did write to Stanislaus to let them know my thoughts on the medical field not knowing much about celiac and how it affects one.I also did message my gi the 3 specialist names that was given on previous post on questions on celiac. I pray its not on deaf door.
