BERNESES--thanks i took your advice...i planted the pansies and the computer was down today sooooo

man, i needed a break from this forum...i'm just so bewildered..some of the above ideas 're; our own' tests of casin vs lacatose..sounds sensible...

Still dealing with up coming Easter and all the 'pain' that it's bringing with now not having either parent in my life now.

Just very down right now and the only 'joy' I'm finding is in my garden and 'getting away from' all the theories...Need to give my brain a rest. I appreciate all you support and will ck in no and then, but if i don't post it's not because i don't appreciate all you input and ideas.

just want to get through Easter. Miss my son too.

poop.. :lol: at least that's going well..so count my blessings. I just put that word in was remembering how it was the focal pt of some many of my posts... :blink:

Will plant more pansies tomorrow ,,,even if it's in the rain that they are predicting.

The doctor from the clinic is stumped as to why I havent gotten better. He ordered a heavy metal test since my symptoms started after dental work 3 years back.

rachel- This is weird, but my husband's boss's wife was telling me that her best friend had really similar symptoms to me and NO ONE could figure out what was wrong with her. eventually, everyone was convinced it was all in her head. Finally, one of her doctors figured out that her dental fillings had been poisoning her. I think she had to have the fillings removed and go through several detoxes but she's doing great now. How weird would it be if that was what it was? I just thought I'd let you know because it immediately came to mind when I saw your post. Are your fillings metal?

Berneses,

I had my fillings removed 2 years ago cuz I freaked out about mercury when i started researching my symptoms and read about it. It didnt change anything for me so will have to wait and see what the test results say.

That was smart!!! Maybe you still have to detox though. I hope they find out for you. this has been going on way too long and you deserve to feel better. :(

I know...missing my mom terribly right now. Easter was always special because of her. Can't imagine if my dad was gone too. hang in there, plant those pansies and we'll "reconvene" after the holiday.

      There is a 10 year old post in this forum on Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream. The information is somewhat outdated and the thread is closed to further comment, so here is a new one. Edy's And Dreyer's Grand Vanilla Bean Ice Cream - 1.5 Quart is labeled "Gluten Free". This is a different answer than years gone by. I don't know the answer for any other flavor at this moment. On 1 May, 2026, Edy's website says: "As a general rule, the gluten in Edy's and Dreyer's® frozen dessert products is present only in the added bakery products, such as cookies, cake or brownies. We always label the eight major food allergens on our package by their common name. We recommend to always check the label for the most current information before purchasing and/or consuming a product. The exception to this rule is our Slow Churned French Silk frozen dairy dessert, which contains gluten in the natural flavors." https://www.icecream.com/us/en/brands/edys-and-dreyers/faq It seems that Edy's and Dreyer's are more celiac-friendly than they were 10 years ago. Once I found enough information to make today's buying decision, I stopped researching.

      probably not your situation @Mimiof2, but allow me to add one more to @trents list of celiac-mimics: "olmesartan-induced sprue-like enteropathy"

      My dad had an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm.  Fortunately, it was discovered during an exam.  The doctor could feel my dad's heart beating in his stomach/abdomen.  The aneurysm burst when the doctor first touched it in surgery.  Since he was already hooked up to the bypass machine, my dad survived ten more years.  Close call! Triple A's can press on the nerves in the spinal cord causing leg pain.  I'm wondering if bowing the head might have increased the pressure on an aneurysm and then the nerves.   https://gulfcoastsurgeons.com/understanding-abdominal-aortic-aneurysm-symptoms-and-causes/ Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Presenting as a Claudication https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4040638/

      You have an odd story there. To me, the mechanical trigger suggests a mechanical problem and lower leg pain is a classic sciatica symptom. The fact that the clear mechanical linkage is no longer there does not take away from the fact that it was - maybe something shifted and the simple alignment is no longer there. There's also a good chance I am wrong and it's something else entirely. @Scott Adams's mention of shingles is interesting. It seems possible but unlikely to me, but who knows. However, I am writing here to reinforce the idea of getting the shingles vaccine. Ask anyone who has ever had shingles and they will bend your ear telling you how bad it is. I watched my wife go through it and it scared the bejeebers out of me. Even if you had the chicken pox vaccine, you really want to get the shingles vaccine.

      Oddly this effect has gone now, just happened yesterday evening, the nerve pain is now back to its usual "unpredictable" random self again - but that was the only time I ever had some mechanical trigger for it, don't know why! There's no (or wasn't) actual pain in my neck - it was inside the leg, but when I looked down, now though, the leg pain just comes and goes randomly as before again.
