OMG guys, you should hear my stomach right now..... Has any of you ever cleared a drain and once it's cleared, you get the GLUB, GLUB, GLUB sound as the water is going down the drain? That is my stomach right now, you can hear it in the next room! Yep, the night has just begun..... <_<

That's why my little ol' mother quit going to church. :P:P:P

Good Googly Moogly ---

Anyone every have Hydrogen breath tests for baterial overgrowth and/or lactose intolerance?

These do not sound like fun! I think I am going to be spinached and pulling a Dave all at once. The testing service just warned me I may be visiting the porcelain god after both tests. :(:blink::o

Picard,

I've not had those tests--and they sound like no fun at all!

At least if you have an idea of what to expect, you won't worry that somethings gone wrong. Who knows, you may not have a bad reaction at all--think positive! ;)

Another Premature Post:

Dear Dave (The),

We welcome you with open arms, and you ridicule the ferocity of our geese? I, in my role of Minister of Defense in charge of our miraculous, protective, Auxigro-detecting geese, deem it advisable to caution you thusly: Tiptoe lightly through our Rachelvillian tulips. The geese and I are ordinarily peaceful inhabitants. Don't make us have to hurt you! :ph34r:

Best not to mess with our Cissie :o:lol:

Sorry. I have heard on Iron Maiden...back in the 80's right. Did they sing We Are the Champions? I liked that song. Now you won't get any important work done because the song lyrics might interrupt your dictation to the overworked legal secretaries. :P Work, what work! Right!

Have a nice walk Susan. I don't know a thing about plasma. I'm running back and forth playing wegits with the kids and reading this thread. It's lunch time for them, a break. Seth should be up soon looking for his lunch. He's on apple/blueberry now. Oh the fun of introducing food. So far he likes everything, but hasn't had much yet since he's only been on solids for a little over a month.

I think Queen did "We are the Champions". I am drafting a motion right now and doing some research. Music makes it go by a little faster.

I try not to overwork my assistant. When I need her she gets bombarded.

Yep, you're right. What was I thinking! :o I don't remember if I listened to Iron Maiden or not. That was in my "I'll listen to the music you like" as far as my current love interest at the time. My friend was into a lot of hard rock/heavy metal stuff. I'm trying to remember my favorite at the time. I was an old Styx fan but don't like any of that music anymore. I was more into soft rock I guess. I forget all the music names. I won't bore you guys with who I liked. I'd probably get laughed out of town. :unsure: My music tastes have totally changed and my current likes would be to mellow for most if not all of you. Simple says a lot.

I listened to a lot of different types of music everything from punk (Seven Seconds, husker Du, DK), hard rock/heavy metal (Maiden, Judas Priest, Quiet Riot), country (Garth Brooks, Alabama), to stuff like New Order, Bauhaus, Aztec Camera. I just like music and i admit what I listen to is a direct reflection fo my mood at the time.

Oh . . . . that. Don't we all? Remember your Southern roots, you quick-witted dingbat. It's just a little old 5-round, Smith & Wesson revolver. I call her Lulu, not to be confused with She-of-the-Dangling-Nerve-Lula.

So do they expect you to bow down to the porcelain god or to sit for service? :blink:

At least you get paid for plasma. I couldn't do it after the second tim (when I was in college) because some "wierd antibodies" came back in my blood. I guess they don't want abnormally high IgG levels, as I later found out they were in the celiac disease test.

If you have any antibodies floating around, they won't let you do it, so I guess it depends on what your blood panel looks like. Worth a shot!!

Blasphemy!!!

At least you realized your error :)

My favorite queen song is Under Pressure with David Bowie. It's probably #2 in my favorite songs of all time. The first being Free Bird. Man, am I a traitor to my generation or what :P

EDIT: After re-reading, I figured out that someone might think I thought those two songs were by Queen. No worries, I know the difference between Queen and Skynyrd :P

Picard - - an attorney who is a thoughtful boss - - -a rarity, I will tell you - worked in two law firms myself throughout college (one was my dad's, about 60 attorneys at that time - - too much exposure to lawyers in my past :blink: ) but they do rely heavily on a good secty, that's for sure....

having a hard time picturing our Mother Hen listening to Iron Maiden.... :lol::lol:

I'll tell you what, my music tastes would get ME laughed out of town, except by perhaps cissie - -

Bluegrass, American roots music (I went from Celtic to that), OLD country (Cash especially, Willie Nelson and Emmylou), and then NIck Drake (British and no longer living), crazy old English Beat and ska, from college- - there's normal stuff too (Seal - my deep love - U2, Beatles, Peter Gabriel) and some Christian music......but everybody but my bro hates my old crazy stuff with fiddles and Appalachian crooners - - - -

Fiddle-Faddle, DID I MENTION I SING????? actually come from a family of beautiful Welsh tenors, I"m the only female who can sing....have a trainable voice and sing harmony in the car, constantly..... :lol::lol::lol:

Plasma - - they take your blood out, remove the plasma, then put the blood back in. Should be okay. I'm just happy to not be a Donor REject - - was anemic for my whole life, until now..... :rolleyes:

THIS SONG MAKES ME CRAZY!!!! in a good way, of course. How brilliant that song is!! Number one fave song of all time - -

Deep Water by Seal - - not a happy song though - - - got me through a vey dark time, that first Seal album.....

I will have to say my #1 song is from Peter Gabriel - Solsbury Hill. Great sound, great imagery. A close second is a David Bowie song -- Changes.

If it were not for my assistant -- she has been at this for longer than I care to think about (and longer than I ahve been practicing) -- I would be outright lost.

Treat your help very good and you will reap the benefits

      Diagnosed celiac for 1-2 months ago and everything makes me bloated.

      By Beverage · Posted

      I had a very rough month after diagnosis. No exaggeration, lost so much inflammatory weight, I looked like a bag of bones, underneath i had been literally starving to death. I did start feeling noticeably better after a month of very strict control of my kitchen and home. What are you eating for breakfast and lunch? I ignored my doc and ate oats, yes they were gluten free, but some brands are at the higher end of gluten free. Lots of celics can eat Bob's Red Mill gluten-free oats, but not me. I can now eat them, but they have to be grown and processed according to the "purity protocol" methods. I mail order them, Montana Gluten-Free brand. A food and symptoms and activities log can be helpful in tracking down issues. You might be totally aware, but I have to mention about the risk of airborne gluten. As the doc that diagnosed me warned . . Remember eyes, ears, nose, and mouth all lead to your stomach and intestines.  Are you getting any cross contamination? Airborne gluten? Any pets eating gluten (they eat it, lick themselves, you pet them...)? Any house remodeling? We live in an older home, always fixing something. I've gotten glutened from the dust from cutting into plaster walls, possibly also plywood (glues). The suggestions by many here on vitamin supplements also really helped me. I had some lingering allergies and asthma, which are now 99% gone. I was taking Albuterol inhaler every hour just to breathe, but thiamine in form of benfotiamine kicked that down to 1-2 times a day within a few days of starting it. Also, since cutting out inflammatory seed oils (canola, sunflower, grapeseed, etc) and cooking with real olive oil, avocado oil, ghee, and coconut oil, I have noticed even greater improvement overall and haven't used the inhaler in months! It takes time to weed out everything in your life that contains gluten, and it takes awhile to heal and rebuild your health. At first it's mentally exhausting, overwhelming, even obsessive, but it gets better and second nature.

      Protein or fat?

      By Jsingh · Posted

      Hi,  I care for my seven year old daughter with Celiac. After watching her for months, I have figured out that she has problem with two kinds of fats- animal fat and cooking oils. It basically makes her intestine sore enough that she feels spasms when she is upset. It only happens on days when she has eaten more fat than her usual every day diet. (Her usual diet has chia seeds, flaxseeds, and avocado/ pumpkin seeds for fat and an occasional chicken breast.) I stopped using cooking oils last year, and when I reintroduced eggs and dairy, both of which I had held off for a few months thinking it was an issue of the protein like some Celiac patients habe mentioned to be the case, she has reacted in the same fashion as she does with excess fats. So now I wonder if her reaction to dairy and eggs is not really because of protein but fat.   I don't really have a question, just wondering if anyone finds this familiar and if it gets better with time.  Thank you.

      High Cost of Gluten-Free Foods

      By Chanda Richard · Posted

      Hello, My name is Chanda and you are not the only one that gose through the same things. I have found that what's easiest for me is finding a few meals each week that last. I have such severe reactions to gluten that it shuts my entire body down. I struggle everyday with i can't eat enough it feels like, when I eat more I lose more weight. Make sure that you look at medication, vitamins and shampoo and conditioner also. They have different things that are less expensive at Walmart.

      Frequent nausea after gluten-free diet

      By petitojou · Posted

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.
