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

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.

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....

      Hi Colin I share your frustration. My coeliac disease was diagnosed in 2013 and it took some years for my  TTG levels to settle to normal levels in  blood tests.  I had to make a few significant changes at home to make sure our house was as gluten free as possible (I share a house with gluten eaters) but time and time again I found I was glutened (or nearly glutened whilst eating out  - like regular bread being served with a gluten-free meal ).  Even eating in chains that Coeliac UK were recommending as safe for coeliacs.  So I gave up eating in restaurants for a while.  My blood tests normalised.  But here's the thing:  the lowest my TTG readings ever got to were 4.5 (10  and under being my local lab's normal levels) and now that I am eating out again more regularly, they've gone up to 10 again.  I am quite convinced this gluten is coming from exposure whilst eating out.  Small levels, that don't make me violently sick, but might give me a mild stomach upset.  My next coeliac blood review is in September and I mean to give up eating out a few months before to see if that helps my blood results get back on track. It seems to me that there are few restaurants which really 'get it' - and a lot of restaurants that don't 'get it' at all.  I've found one restaurant in Somerset and a hotel in East Sussex where they really know what they are doing.    The restaurant in Somerset hardly uses flour in any of their dishes; the hotel in East Sussex takes in trainees from the local college, so they are teaching best standards.   But it has taken a lot of searching and trial and effort on my part to find these two places.  There are certainly others in the UK, but it seems to me the only real way to find them is trial and error, or perhaps from the personal recommendation of other strict coeliacs (Incidentally, my coeliac hairdresser tells me that if a Michelin star restaurant has to have a separate food preparation so she has never been glutened in one - I can't say I've ever eaten in one!) For the rest, I think we just have to accept that gluten may be in the air in kitchens, if not on the surfaces, and there will always be some level of risk wherever one dines, unless the restaurant cooks exclusively gluten free dishes.

      @Theresa2407, My Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFD), now called Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD), cleared up, resolved, after supplementing with Thiamine B1 and Riboflavin B2.  "Specifically, higher intakes of vitamin B1 and vitamin B2 were negatively associated with the risk of NAFLD. Consequently, providing adequate levels of Vitamin B1 and Vitamin B2 in the daily diets of postmenopausal women could potentially serve as a preventive measure against NAFLD."

      Welcome to the the celiac.com community @colinukcoeliac! I am in the USA but I don't think it is any different here in my experience. In some large cities there are dedicated gluten free restaurants where only gluten free ingredients are found. However, there are a growing number of mainstream eatery chains that advertise gluten free menu items but they are likely cooked and prepared along with gluten containing foods. They are just not set up to offer a dedicated gluten free cooking, preparation and handling environment. There simply isn't space for it and it would not be cost effective. And I think you probably realize that restaurants operate on a thin margin of profit. As the food industry has become more aware of celiac disease and the issue of cross contamination I have noticed that some eateries that used to offer "gluten free" menu items not have changed their terminology to "low gluten" to reflect the possibility of cross contamination.  I would have to say that I appreciate the openness and honesty of the response you got from your email inquiry. It also needs to be said that the degree of cross contamination happening in that eatery may still allow the food they advertise as gluten free to meet the regulatory standards of gluten free advertising which, in the USA is not more than 20ppm of gluten. And that is acceptable for most celiacs and those who are gluten sensitive. Perhaps you might suggest to the eatery that they add a disclaimer about cross contamination to the menu itself.
