I thought you were coming to gluten-free colonize Colorado with me? :(

when we lived in the Sacramento area, they were talking about splitting off from the US.

Yep the split in two thing failed...back then our economy was very strong and was something like 8th biggest economy when compared with other countries....that was before our state went broke ;)

I could live at elevation in Colorado : )

Ahh, I'm planning a big move to Ohio to be near my relatives.  The wonderful gluten-free island kingdom doesn't seem to have materialized yet, so Ohio it is.  I don't know about Kansas tho Crayon.  It's kinda close to the Yosemite super-volcano area for my taste.  Deep fried celiacs anyone?  Plus they have those big-foot things in Colorado I think.  Of course Ohio is sorta close to the big East coast quake they say is overdue too.  Dang, where is that island kingdom?

 

And yes, Crayon,  I notice them!  Wink Wink! :)

Nothing like an overplayed song that gets stuck in your head to turn you into a crazy person with a bad attitude in a snap. :lol: :lol:

When my friend was visiting, we were both reading and enjoying the sunshine. That song came on the radio.

 

When it was over, my very calm and usually very upbeat pal said "oh thank gawwwdd....I f--ing hate that song!". 

 

We both burst out laughing at the thought that she was actually irritated by someone singing about being happy.

 

Hubs hates it too. 

 

I don't get it. I like it-- and turn I it up loudly when I am alone in the car--and sing at the top of my lungs. 

 

And anytime anyone else sees me moving and shaking in the car at a red light, they smile and start waving at me. (either that or they think

I am having a seizure of some sort) 

 

One time, driving to Florida, somewhere in the middle of Georgia, i was dancing in my seat to some energetic song and  gesticulating like mad

doing the "swim"...pointing my arms all over the place, ...

and this car load of women (looked like a mom and her 4 girls) pulled up along side us and they started doing the same thing I was doing...it was hilarious!

 

That amused us all for about 10 miles until they had to take an exit. 

 

The hubs just shakes his head at me. What can I say? As Colleen says. I'm happy happy. 

 

Beats the shyte out of being miserable miserable. ^_^

Sounds like Ohio is going to get crowded!  :)  Visitors are welcome or maybe a meet-up somewhere.  I don't think there really is a Canfield in Ohio though.  Sounds like somewhere we toss our empty beers cans on Friday night.  Er, well, that's about anywhere we happen to be driving by tho.  Ever try to hit a road sign with a beer bottle?  That can fill up a Friday or Saturday night drive with fun.  We have some hills and a little crick with minnows and snapping turtles to play with.  And the coyotes and boars and bears are moving in too they say.

 

I wonder where Oscar is?  He always seems so happy and cheerful.  I thot sure he would weigh in on this thread and let us know how happy it makes him.

No prob with a DD Leesur.  A DD might actually help the aim! :)  The beer throwing was 40 years ago, they might have come up with some more interesting things to do by now.

 

If you all aren't sure you are happy, you get happy by traveling to zombo.com.  There you can do anything.

      I think, after reading this, that you areso traumatized by not being able yo understand what your medical advisors have been  what medical conditions are that you would like to find a group of people who also feel traumatized who would agree with you and also support you. You are on a crusade much as the way the US Cabinet  official, the Health Director of our nation is in trying to change what he considers outdated and incorrect health advisories. He does not have the education, background or experience to be in the position he occupies and is not making beneficial decisions. That man suffered a terrible trauma early in his life when his father was assonated. We see now how he developed and worked himself into a powerful position.  Unless you are willing to take some advice or  are willing to use a few of the known methods of starting on a path to better health then not many of us on this Celiac Forum will be able to join you in a continuing series of complaints about medical advisors.    I am almost 90 years old. I am strictly gluten free. I use 2 herbs to help me stay as clear minded as possible. You are not wrong in complaining about medical practitioners. You might be more effective with a clearer mind, less anger and a more comfortable life if you would just try some of the suggestions offered by our fellow celiac volunteers.

Im positive for HLA-DQ2 which is first celiac patient per Iran and Turkey. Here in the States especially in Cali its why do you feel that way? Why do you think your celiac? Your not eating gluten so its something else.Medical caused me depression. I thought I was safe with my former pcp for 25 years considering i thought everything I went through and going through will be available when I get fired again for health. Health not write-ups my health always come back when you're better.Im not and being tossed away at no fault to my own other than shitty genes.I was denied disability because person said he didn't know how to classify me! I said Im celiac, i have ibs, hernia, sciatica, high blood pressure, in constant pain have skin and eye issues and menopause intensified everything. With that my celiac nightmare began to reprove my disregarded disease to a bunch of clowns who think they are my careteam when they said I didn't have...I feel Im still breathing so I can fight this so no body else has to deal with this nightmare. Starting over with " new care team" and waisting more time on why I think I am when diagnosed in 1994 before food eliminated from my diet. P.s everything i went through I did write to medical board, so pretty sure I will continue to have a hard time.

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      Are Lindt chocolate balls gluten free?

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.
