Oh...I only have one line too but I actually figured out how to get past the not receiving calls part. I got call forwarding so all the calls made to my house go straight to my cell. Now I can be online and still talk on the phone. :D

Clever girl...

BTW you only need one phone line for DSL.

Be sure to keep up with us. Have a great time in Australia. May I ask why you are going? Didn't you say for five months.

I'm traveling through a work abroad program. So basically I have a work visa and I'm hoping to find a job when I get there and travel around the country as well. It's just something I've always wanted to do. It'll be a great way to shake things up a bit - after eliminating gluten I still suffer from cubicle induced brain fog. So...I needed to do something slightly drastic to force myself out of my current (not so exciting) situation :D It'll be a fun adventure if nothing else :)

Can you be my designated typer?? :lol:

wow... just took my first sip... almost forgot what it tasted like ^_^

Good luck with the wine. One sip can be powerful if you haven't drank in a while :lol:

I think at this point 3 sips of wine would probably get me drunk. When I got sick I totally lost my tolerance for alcohol. :(

Mango, I agree with Floridian...you're really brave!! I'm the type that wouldnt ever think of going to see a movie by myself or going to eat by myself....let alone going to a whole other country by myself. :blink:

No way...I'm chicken. :ph34r:

But... I can go shopping by myself....I'm really good at that!! :D

Donna you probably look beautiful and healthy... I still look sickly... I hate it... the doctor said I'd start to gain weight but it's not happening as fast I would like it to.

Floridian-

I'm 5'5 and not even 100 lounds- so I'm sure compared to me you hardly look sickly!! I can't seem to gain weight no matter what I gained 3 pounds and got excited and than lost them within a few weeks.

So Donna feel free to pass any weight you don't want over to me- I need it!!!

Miamia

Okay... question.... should I try a glass of white wine? Haven't had a sip of ANY alcohol in about 4 months.

Hi... my name is Celia

I haven't had a drink in 4 months.

I'm not an alcoholic but was thinking it might be fun. :lol:

I was wondering the same thing the other day and didn't- god I miss wine!!!

If you go for it give a review of your reaction.

OMG, you guys have added 5 more pages since I was last here late this morning :lol::lol:

Hi Mango! That is so cool you are going to Australia. Will you still be able to access the board from your travels? I hope so, maybe you can post pictures of your adventures??

I can also be a designated typer :lol: I don't drink at all.

Oh Miamia... I can feel your pain SOOOO much!!! Isn't it hard to gain??? Drives me nuts!!

Floridian-

I just see how its possible I don't - even when I am having a reaction or a truly terrrible day I force myself to eat because I am so scared of losing weight and still I don't gain a pound it really is FRUSTRATING!! Everyone thinks I'm anoerexic- trying to explain malabsorbtion and food intolerences is a joke- nobody gets it. Well except those at the sleepover.

I have a doctor's appointment on the 17th and she's gonna ask me how I've been... thinking I should print out this thread and hand it to her :D

:lol:

I wonder how much paper you'd need to print out the entire thread. :blink:

I'm just imagining you plopping down this huge book and saying "Its all here...in black and white...this is how I feel". :D

And you're doctor's looking at you like this. :huh:

Ummm....I'm thinking that would be a really bad idea....all my past posts would come back to haunt me. :ph34r:

My reply was...Never!!

This is an all girls slumber party. ;)

I see the slumber party has been going on without me :angry::D ! I came on to see if anyone else was here, and I see it's been non-stop for 5 or 6 pages! Floridian, I had a glass of wine with Easter dinner--the first on in 2 years. No problem at all--but I haven't had another....How are you feeling now--or have you gone to sleep :lol: ?

Hey Rachel--no problem with the pinning--I have more time during the day than you do anyway!

OH gawwwddd Rachel... I'm sitting here laughing at you so hard and my Tony comes in ... oh Tony my hubby... and he goes "maybe it's beddy bye time" and I go "why"... and he goes "cuz your sitting here staring at a computer screen laughing your (you know what) off.... he just smiled and hugged me and went to watch TV

I've been doing the same thing. You women are very funny.

I had two doctors appointments today, my GP asked why I was there to see her and I told her it was because her office had called me to come in and talk to her about the letter from the Gastro. :huh:

So then she read the letter and had nothing to tell me I didn't already know. The next doctor I saw was a surgeon who is determined to take out the fibroid cyst I have in one of my breasts. In the midst of the Celiac crisis this winter I discovered the lump and had a month or so of wondering if I had breast cancer but I don't. :P They all thought I did though, I kept hearing the, well you are 51 and it is an irregular mass, worried looks and such. I have a CT scan scheduled this week too because I have a cyst or something in one of my kidneys. :( I am really wondering if there is a connection between all the soy I consumed in my twenties and estrogen and these cysts. Has anybody else suddenly been "cysted"?

      Nausea

      I have trouble with nausea. It often starts when I’m anxious about something (home repairs, sick dog) but continues long after the home is repaired or the dog is healthy again. When it happens I eat less and lose weight. My gastroenterologist suggested ginger or peppermint tea. I don’t know if that will work or not because I haven't had the problem since she...

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Of course my son is on a 100% gluten free diet. I wish his symptoms were not debilitating as there are right now. He cannot work, even when a miniscule of cross contamination occurs. It's not just GI distress, but intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, insomnia, etc. It's literally neurological inflammation. Not to be taken lightly here. We...

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Have you tried AN-PEP enzymes, for example, GlutenX (who is a sponsor here)? A lot of research has shown that it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines. It might be a better approach than risking nicotine addiction, and the questionable research around this. I also hope that he’s trying to be 100% Gluten-F...

      Nausea

      Hi all I was diagnosed Coeliac a few years ago and follow a gluten free diet. The list of foods that I can eat without a problem grows shorter on a weekly basis. [I also have diabetes and asthma also]. BUT the reason I am posting this is because I seem to struggle with nausea quite a lot, which is really quite debilitating, and I was wondering...

I don't know if it's from the lactose in the yogurt or if I'm getting an ulcer  This condition can make you question yourself quite a bit.  Then if you are not sure the anxiety comes 😞 Does any of these symptoms sound familiar to anyone? The neuropathy is quite intense.  What do you eat or drink after this happens  Open to suggestions  Thank you
