Viola -- Sorry about your girlfriend. I know what it feels like I lost my best friend and dog on the same day not long ago. I will add Elizabeth to a prayer list... many hugs.

Shirley, condolences on losing your good friend.

I hate that I haven't been on the board in a while and I missed all of this!!!

Shirley-I am very sorry for your loss. Peace be with you.

Deb-wow.

Lynne-double wow. (crying)

Everyone-wow again. I love this board.

I hate a lot of things. But after reading this, I mostly hate that I don't value myself or my health enough to quit cheating. I love this board. I hate that it took reading Lynne's story to move me to value my health. I get sick, and then I brush it off, because of all of the people around me telling me that it isn't a big deal. I care more about what they think then I do about my own health. I hate that.

God Bless you all, you have no idea what people reading this are thinking and are feeling. You have helped me more than you know. Tiffany (TiffJake)

I know about all of the other sad posts, but since it's Friday and all, I thought I'd try to bring a bit more fun back to the thread...

I HATE it when Sonic forgets to put the marischino cherry in my dang cherry coke! :angry::P

Hey, the little things count too! :P

I despise how a television season isn't a true season anymore! What happened to TV like it was in the 80's? You had a favourite TV show, and once the season started, you were guaranteed a new show EVERY week until the cliffhanger at the end of the season. Nowadays, you never know what you are going to get. Half the time, it is a rerun and the other half of the time, it's not even on! (I tuned in to watch House as I religiously do every Tuesday night, and what was on? A double shot of the Gilmore Girls!!!! <_< Where's my House???????? :angry: The other half of the time, it's a rerun from a previous season!

Wuz up with that???? <_<

Okay, that's my rant for the day!

I hate that I'm going to a funeral service for one of my friends today. I'm really going to miss her. Training dogs and painting just isn't going to be the same.

Shirley, I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of your friend. You're in my thoughts.

I hate all of the sypmtoms I feel...

and I hate that I've been suffering from them for a long long time and it took until now for a doctor to go, huh that sounds like something I read about once...let me go look through some papers I'll be back...IDIOTS!!

I hate NEVER cuddling with my boyfriend because by the time he gets home I'm blown up to the size of a blimp

I hate not eating an entire day during class because I don't want to be bloated or feel the need to release that air while the professor is speaking!! :P:blink: :blink:

BUT you know what I love...I love knowing that other people feel like I do, that I'm not the only one who needs a nap because I got overwhelmed with this NEW fangled diet and ate a whole basket of Texas Roadhouse rolls...and that all these symptoms aren't just me overexaggerating or being a cry-baby.....

IronedOut Apprentice

I hate being obsessed with food.

arc Newbie

I'm new here, but thought I would join in. My life is pretty good, so this is mostly in fun.

I hate the nutritional and health misinformation that runs rampant.

I hate it that doctors are mostly drug pushers that treat symptoms with lifetime prescriptions rather than find the root cause of the problem.

I hate it that most research these days is to find more profitable drugs or to prop up crumbling dogma, instead of improving the overall health of the nation.

I hate it that my parents think doctors are infallible.

I hate it that my Mom won't look into gluten sensitivity when she has had lifetime serious GI problems.

I hate it that my Dad won't even consider looking into any other treatment methods (and isn't really following the one he's on), and I will probably lose him because of it.

I hate it that I can't touchtype but am too lazy to do anything about it.

I hate it that my pre-diabetic mother-in-law was put on a high carb diet by a nutritionist, when she is already having problems controlling her blood sugar and that my mil will probably do it so that she doesn't have to give up bananas, milk and cereal.

I hate it when someone speeds up and passes me on the passing lane and then slows way down.

I hate it when someone claims that someone is deficient in taste, intelligence, or knowledge just because that person doesn't like exactly what they like, be it music, literature, fashion, cars, etc.

I hate it that I used to be that way and missed out on a lot of great music because of it.

I hate that living in the country means crappy produce and sub-par schools.

I hate that I have a hard time doing new things and am probably holding back my kids.

I really hate that this is the first nice week in a long time and I've either been sick or at work.

I hate that my truck is dirty (actually filthy is more like it) right now and I haven't had the time to wash it.

I hate it that there are a lot of people that are offended at the drop of the hat and their "offended-ness" is somehow more important than other's opinions or rights.

I hate it that the Chiefs are doing absolutely nothing in free agency and it's a whole month 'til the draft.

I hate it when people spell the abbreviation of "until" as "till". :)

Wow, this is fun. I could do this all day.

I hate that I'm going to have to find a new job because my boss can't keep my appointment book filled and can't even PAY ME for the hours I've worked :angry::angry::angry::angry::angry::angry::angry:

Judyin Philly Enthusiast

WHAT???? CAN'T KEEP YOUR APT BOOK FULL AND YET....CAN'T PAY YOU FOR THE HRS YOU HAVE WORKED?????? :blink::ph34r::o:unsure:

If your book was full of apts how'd he plan the pay for those hours??

When did you find this out, just today.

God you don't need this on top of everything else...Hugs to you from me.

vent if you need.

didn't you work a PT thearpist in a chiro office or do i have you mixed up with someone else.

I care about you, Nisla

Nini--I'm so sorry--that is terrible! :(

Guest nini

Judy, yeah I work part time for a chiropractor, and I've been there 5 years. Up until about 4 months ago he was able to keep my appointments filled and I was averaging about $600 a week (part time)... which was awesome... it's been declining over the past four months down to about $400 a week... this past week was pitiful and was barely even $300 and he didn't even tell me until I was getting my time sheet together to get my paycheck today that he didn't have enough money to even pay me that. He gave me less than half of that in a check and $30 in cash... AAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGHHHH... Things have already been tight because hubby's been out of work since November... doing reselling on E-bay, and bringing in some income, but not a salary... but as long as I was getting paid I was ok...

thank you too Patti... I'm just really po'ed right now.

so sorry Nini

you know have you thought of taking things to a auction to sell. Friends of mine have been doing that.

i buy on ebay but selling seems so much work.

so doesn this mean that as of today you are OUT OF WORK ??

THAT REALLY IS HORRID.

DID YOU LIKE THE CHIRO DR BEFORE THIS???

jUDY

Guest nini

technically I'm still employed there, but if this is going to become a pattern with my boss (which it looks like it is) I am going to have to find something else. My husband thinks that if he doesn't pay me the rest of what he owes me before Monday that I shouldn't go back in on Monday... I'm still trying to decide what to do. I love him (the chiro Dr.) as a person, but as an employer he sucks. I've given him 5 years of my professional life and really have nothing to show for it. No benefits, No savings, No improvement in financial status, No clientel that is mine to follow me if and when I leave, I will have to start over from scratch. I'm really confused as to WHAT to do at this point. I don't want to have to find another job, but I can't go on like this. It's not working for me.

I'm really confused as to WHAT to do at this point. I don't want to have to find another job, but I can't go on like this. It's not working for me.

fINDING ANOTHER JOB IS SO DANG STRESSFUL. THINK YOU SAID YOU HUBBY WAS UNEMPLOYED AT THIS TIME..YOU DEAR SOUL...WELL YOU MENTIONED EBAY...SPRING IS COMING AND I LOVE GARAGE SALES WHEN I CAN WALK :lol: WHICH IS ANOTHER STORY..USING A CANE AGAIN TODAY.

HUGS AND LOVE

Guest nini

yep, hubby's trying to find a job too.

I HATE HATE HATE that my boss has put me in this position. I hate it. I'm so mad and frustrated and stressed out and

I hate it that the fibromyalgia is acting up again and I may have to consider giving up doing massage and just finding a 9-5 job somewhere... I really hate this.

Guest BERNESES

Nini- i just wanted to say that i'm sorry about this -it STINKS (like bad pooop). I've seen this happen with some of the start-up computer companies my friend's have worked for. LAME. and with the additional stress of hubby being out of work, I can't imagine.

(((Hugs))), Beverly

PS What kind of degree did you have to get to be an assistant to a chiro? Could you use it to be a PT assistant at a hospital or a clinic or are those two mutually exclusive? Just trying to brainstorm for you.

I am a licensed massage therapist... I went to massage school and have learned how to be a CA (Chiro Assistant) on the job...

2tired Apprentice
It's too hard to explain. I'm 28 and too old to truely *understand* from the 'experienced it' sense, myself. :-) I do know enough to know it's not worth understanding. :-P (Then again, I had just started getting into the new-age yoga-hippie crowd before moving, so my judgement may be suspect. :-D)

Can I get in on this whole hate thing?

I hate that Celiac was ever created.

I hate that I cannot go out to eat like normal people.

I hate that there is not a good health food store where I live.

I hate that I do not know how to cook.

I hate that I cannot have the foods back that I like to eat.

I hate that I spend all of my time in the grocery store reading labels.

I hate eating the same foods all of the time.

I hate that I have been suffering from treatment resistant depression for 35 yrs.

I hate that this disease controls your lives.

I hate that some family members think that cheating won't kill you. They say it didn't hurt you before you found out about it so why should it matter now.

I hate the cravings that I am having that I cannot fix,

I JUST HATE!!!

bklyn Enthusiast

Nini,

Sorry to go off topic, I know you are having personal problems, but I'm wondering about Chiropractors. What exactly are they used for? Do you believe they get results?

Again, sorry you are having work problems.

debmidge Rising Star

Nisla,

sorry your work situation is souring, it's not a good scene to be in. I don't know anything about your area of work so I can even suggest something that you can jump into with your background. What about at a physical therapy center? I'm sure you've thought of this too....

      Welcome to the forum, @catsrlife! Celiac disease can be diagnosed without committing to a full-blown "gluten challenge" if you get a skin biopsy done during an active outbreak of dermatitis herpetiformis, assuming that is what is causing the rash. There is no other known cause for dermatitis herpetiformis so it is definitive for celiac disease. You would need to find a dermatologist who is familiar with doing the biopsy correctly, however. The samples need to be taken next to the pustules, not on them . . . a mistake many dermatologists make when biopsying for dermatitis herpetiformis. 
    • trents
      You state in an earlier post that you don't have celiac disease. Here in this post you state you will "be doing another test". What will this test be looking for? What kind of celiac disease testing have you had done? If you have used a Entero Labs it sounds like you have had stool testing done for celiac disease which is not widely accepted as a valid celiac disease diagnostic testing method. Have you had blood antibody testing for celiac disease done and do you realize that for antibody testing to be valid you must have been eating generous amounts of gluten for a period of weeks/months? 
    • Gigi2025
      No, I've not been diagnosed as celiac.  Despite Entero Labs being relocated to Switzerland/Greece, I'll be doing another test. After eating wheat products in Greece for 4 weeks, there wasn't any reaction.  However, avoiding it here in the states.   Thanks everyone for your responses.  
    • Rejoicephd
      Thank you @JulieRe so much for sharing this extra information. I'm so glad to hear you're feeling better and I hope it keeps moving in that direction. I feel I'm having so many lightbulb moments on this forum just interacting with others who have this condition. I also was diagnosed with gastric reflux maybe about 10 years ago. I was prescribed ranitidine for it several years back, which was working to reduce my gastric reflux symptoms but then the FDA took ranitidine off the shelves so I stopped taking it. I had a lot of ups and downs healthwise in and around that time (I suddenly gained 20 pounds, blood pressure went up, depression got worse, and I was diagnosed with OSA). At the time I attributed my change in symptoms to me taking on a new stressful job and didn't think much else about it. They did give me a replacement gastric reflux drug since ranitidine was off the shelves, but when I went on the CPAP for my OSA, the CPAP seemed to correct the gastric reflux problem so I haven't been on any gastric reflux drug treatment for years although I still do have to use a CPAP for my OSA. Anyway that's a long story but just to say… I always feel like I've had a sensitive stomach and had migraines my whole life (which I'm now attributing to having celiac and not knowing it) but I feel my health took a turn for much worse around 2019-2020 (and this decline started before I caught covid for the first time). So I am now wondering based on what you said, if that ranitidine i took could have contributed to the yeast overgrowth, and that the problem has just been worsening ever since. I have distinctly felt that I am dealing with something more than just stress and battling a more fundamental disease process here. I've basically been in and out of different doctor specialties for the past 5 years trying to figure out what's wrong with me. Finally being diagnosed with celiac one year ago, I thought I finally had THE answer but now as I'm still sick, I think it's one of a few answers and that maybe yeast overgrowth is another answer. For me as well, my vitamin deficiencies have persisted even after I went gluten-free (and my TTG antibody levels came down to measurably below the detectable limit on my last blood test). So this issue of not absorbing vitamins well is also something our cases have in common. I'm now working with a nutritionist and taking lots of vitamins and supplements to try and remedy that issue. I hope that you continue to see improvements in working with your naturopath on this. Keep us posted!

      Back at the end of July I got this rash on both of my forearms. It started on my right and continued to the left. It was on the top and side. The rash has bumps that would pop with clear liquid if scratched. They would almost crystalize and scab up. They reminded me of chicken pox. They would scab for weeks and not heal much at all except for the blood clotting. If the scab was scratched off, it would bleed and bleed until it scabbed up again. The skin has lost its pigment where the scabs are. I figured it was probably either the plant I had trimmed around the 15th or some reaction to the magnesium complex I was taking or an allergic reaction to the asthma meds I was on. I stopped the asthma meds and the magnesium. The rash seemed to get better but when I took the asthma meds it flared up again so I went to the urgent care as my doctor was unavailable. The UC doctor said it probably wasn't the meds and asked about my diet. I said I was strict keto. I usually am, but there is a story around this. I feel amazing on keto. When I eat sugar, wheat, and starchy veggies I feel horrible. Blood sugar goes up, IBS type symptoms, brain fog, etc. But I have a horrible addiction to carbs so I blow it sometimes and after Mom died in 2023, I fell off the wagon. No rashes, just weight gain. I finally went back on keto and then around that time had a piece of pizza (or so, it's hard to stop the carb rush.) So I was strict keto, off and on. She ignored that and prescribed some allergy meds. It didn't go away.  What was happening by then was that the rash was now on my upper elbows, both of them, on the back of my arms. It starts with a very itchy bump, spreads around it and sometimes just burns like crazy and other times just itches. Then it started on the sides of my knees on the oustide, a little bit down the sides of the calves. It's not as bad there as it is on my arms even though it comes and goes (and so does wheat in my diet.) I then got three tiny blisters on each hand, 3 on the insdie of my index finger on the right hand and 3 on the inside of middle finger of my left hand. There is still a little scab there even though it was two weeks ago. No more have appeared on the fingers. But right now the back of the arms above my elbows are starting to itch. At some point I started to think mites from the possum that was sneaking into our house but it's been 3 months and they would be dead already. It wouldn't be from humans because I don't go near any humans although I did take an Uber to the doctor and the bus back. Plus, it's symmetrical. It starts on one side and is almost identical on the other.  I did my DNA with Ancestry and MyHeritage. I don't have the HLA-DQ2 or HLA-DQ8. I do have HLA-DQ2.2. I took the blood test but it was negative. Then again, I don't eat wheat every day. I rarely eat it except for lately when I've been preparing for the blood test if I have to take it again. I don't like to. It makes my joints hurt, gives me brain fog, stomach problems, I sleep in the middle of the day, etc. I have a doctor appointment tomorrow. I hope that she will be more serious about this than the UC doctor was.  So I have no idea. With my luck they'll magically disappear before the doctor appointment. That's what happens with everything.
