oh we definitely need a chocolate intervention! I am wondering - - do you all, who are sensitive to histamines, sneeze a lot? because I never really sneeze any more, since allergies are gone (hay fever reactions, which mostly left when I moved to Monterey)....

...but, I only ate five today....(said in a small voice).... :o

our pleasures are few....should I start drinking again? :lol: or maybe I should give ROBERT a call? :P

HOLD IT STOP THE PRESSES, ER MOUSES.. ROBERT!? Eat the nuggets....Please, eat the nuggets.... Remember, Robert, Bad, Robert, Bad, Repeat.

AnnieDingo-tell mommy no, no, bad girl :blink:

Where is that Southern man we were talking about way back on page 1,098 or something like that?

Shirtless construction workers must all know how to wolf whistle. Dave can you whistle?

Oh, yeah, Rachel knows Scott Peterson and she also used to date Brad Pitt. You must not REALLY know her, Dave, lol :D

edit-hi rinne, I know exactly what you mean - histamine foods seem to be addictive and cause a momentary "rush" of energy for me before the "ugh" sets in.

Whistle? sure.... just regular though...I can't do it with my fingers in my mouth really loud :(

Brad Pitt? I don't know if that's Rachel's kind of guy....I guess I don't know her that well. :lol:

Monterey is really nice! I enjoy the cold overcast mornings sometimes.... I didn't look at your location but b/c of the dingo's, I assumed you were down under! haha!

I think it was during, Angie (Rachel calls her that) was off on some hair-brained trip to help someone or something in Africa, remember? Rachel had to break it off, though because of his gluten eating habits and auxigro "problem".

dang, even the Village Idiot has his signature already, I had better do something.....

christine 25 Newbie
HI Christine,

I'm a little confused....it seems that your main complaint is the jaw/tooth pain, buuuut....you're not Celiac and not eating gluten-free....is your goal to eliminate all gluten? Just wondering if we're the ones to best help you...good luck!

Im not offended by your remark, actually it makes sense. I'm confused too. My situation is that Im sensitive to everything including gluten. Im not gene positive for celaic either, I have other antibodies to thyroglobulin, and TRsab (endocrine stuff) that have shown up tho, so what am I doing here?

I guess Im searching for support, for things that work, and so far eliminating gluten has helped a little bit.

Im not trying to put pressure on anyone to fix my problems, thats somthing I have to do myself, It does help to be told, Hey! dont eat that its going to make you sick,,, I kind of wish I had someone to do that. My family is not supportive, and I keep my "issues" to myself dont tell freinds about them, because they all think they know whats wrong try to give advice and ask me if im feeling better all the time, and im not and i feel like it lets people down, so I keep it to myself. This is a place for me to vent!

Somtimes I have a little devil sitting on my shoulder, I need to listen to the angel, thats telling me to stay away from the food that bothers me. I resond well to that, if somone says, stop eating that!!!!!! i also like positive renforcement that im doing my best. which I am. I work 3 jobs, paying for school myself, live alone, parents are divorced I see them once a year, dont have their support, and going through chronic pain and fatigue, etc, im only 25. But cant think about it, get too depressed.

woe as me,,,, lol. im ok. In a way I created my own situation.

What I see in common is that You guys are all on restrictive diets to heal and maintain health, so thats what I am trying to accomplish too, even if what Im saying about teeth and jaw pain and heavy metals, thryoid, etc. doesnt make a connection with anyone, it still helps to vent to you guys. I think we all have different problems that are unique anyway and we bring our own personality and style to the community.

Clearly a necessity...but please just remember.....there are a handful of women contruction workers too! Can't be discriminating in Rachelville now can we?

I think not.

-Dave

Dave,

Just a reminder....you're far outnumbered here and if the women want shirtless construction workers, they got them. But....if we have single guys that want cute construction women, I'm sure they can be found. :P

You better be nice to me....I'm in charge of the town list. :P:lol::lol::lol:

Ehhh, Fresno is hot!

I was looking at houses not to far off from Herndon/Nees. More so right into Clovis though.... I was thinking of buying and renting, but I don't think the rent will justify for the mortgage :(

Oh well ...

Am I gluten free....well I don't have to be, and I'm sure we can all agree if we don't have to be, we won't be!

:o

Such words have never been spoken here in R-Ville!! :blink:

Maybe he will be joining Vincent as the town trouble-maker. :P

You don't give us very good choices do you.

I would definately pick the chocolate over the other choices.

Stay clear of bad influences girl. This is a case of the lesser evil. :lol:

Well you know it is in my personality to rebel.... I don't mean to stir such a perfect R'ville though. Do you own your own Ice Cream Store in Rachelville slacker?

Christine, we are all on a quest for wellness here and of course you can vent. In between the laughs here are some very serious issues and we are all trying to find answers to help each other. Sometimes it seems like I have not made much progress, but when I look back to where I was less than a year ago it is amazing. Our expectations rise as we reach a new level of wellness and when we have setbacks, it is soo frustrating. You are on the right track. It is like our own personal mysteries that we have to find the clues day by day.

      Dang......did it again and yeah I should admit I am 63 with clumsy phone thumbs. I started feeling better quickly and a doctor a year later said I had to eat  poison (gluten) every day for a month so he could formally diagnose me and NO FREAKING WAY. I couldn't then and can't imagine putting my body through that crap (no pun intended) on purpose ever again.  Why ingest poison for a month to have some doctor say Hey, All you Have To Do Is Never Eat poison Again..

      15 years ago my best friend 'diagnosed' me as Celiac. Her little nephew had been formally diagnosed and her observations of me dealing with brain fog, stomach problems and other stuff had her convincing me to try going gluten free. Oh my heavens, within 3 days, no lie, I felt human again. Took me about a y
    • Scott Adams
      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.
