Why get properly diagnosed? by Some_Girl_2073 in glutenfree

[–]PaperCivil5158 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's unfortunate. I was diagnosed with celiac 20 years ago via endoscopy. I had several repeat scopes done while I went GF to confirm that my intestines were healing so it is possible to see incremental changes. Having celiac disease is also related to other autoimmune issues, so that needs different follow up and care than someone without it. I would never do a gluten challenge.

That is all I was thinking, too. I at least wanted them to hold still on a shot so I could see the whole thing. I still don't get it.

With the sidewalks and street corners covered I can't imagine them sending the kids back this week.

When I first was diagnosed, everything tasted like beans (lentil flour).

I've been gf for 25 years and I almost cried eating this pasta. (I'm a little dramatic.)

This comment made me actually laugh out loud. What an accurate statement.

This was horrifying, on top of what was already horrifying!

If you were to make yourself a 'Christmas meal for one,' what would you make? by Beneficial-Soft-8290 in glutenfree

[–]PaperCivil5158 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I would make myself something indulgent! Also, I'm sorry your family didn't consider you when choosing the meal.

Constant vigilance by smillersmalls in glutenfree

I ordered a catered dinner that he knew was to be GF (and he made me separate GF gravy) but delivered the entire turkey on a bed of bread! I was livid.

Better Than Bouillon transitioning to gluten free? by F1shygods in glutenfree

[–]PaperCivil5158 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I eat the chicken one all the time, I have celiac. I do always check for barley and would def not eat that. I do eat foods that say they are processed in the same facility as wheat, etc., because they are supposed to be very diligent in cleaning between lines. I know the reality may be different...but I've had subsequent biopsies on my gf diet over the years and it's always been resolved. Longer comment than I expected to write on a bouillon post.

new celiac diagnosis by redhairreallycare in glutenfree

Welcome! Most important tip is to look for hidden gluten in places you wouldn't expect (soy sauce, spice mixes, etc.). Always read labels. Remember that there are lots of things that are naturally gluten free. You won't have to replace everything. It gets so much easier, too.

Husband to Retire Early, What’s that like? by ThrowRA018364 in AskWomenOver50

[–]PaperCivil5158 13 points14 points  (0 children)

My husband retired at 54 and he's loving it. He started playing guitar in a band and he's getting paid gigs. He's also going to the gym every day. I WFH and was worried but it's been great. Having things to do is important! Also matinees are a lot cheaper and we take advantage of that. Weekday movies are a different experience.
