I lived in Japan for a couple fo years while in the Navy. Spent some time in the Phillipines :rolleyes: ; Korea ;) , Oz :D to name a few. I have travelled to Ireland, England and various islands in the Caribbien. if down in Oz, try to get over to New Zealand and/or New Caledonia. I really like New Cal beautiful place, not too many tourists mainly Aussies, Japanese and a few French. Lots of diving and a good casino.

Thanks for the tip. I just looked up New Caledonia and it sounds like a beautiful place. I spent a week in New Zealand once but that was not long enough. I think I need to go there too :D

Good luck with your appointment Rachel! I like your idea. If your doctor questions anything you say just tell him/her that you're getting all your medical advice from Floridian, JerseyAngel, Mango, Vyderscope etc. etc. and I'm sure he/she will take you seriously after that :lol:

Yeah...I might not even go to my appt. cuz what do I need a doctor for anyway? :lol:

Funny you say that, there was an article I was reading that says that hormons play a huge part in alcohol tolerance, that's why most women can't drink as much as men... I'll have to try to find that article.

What does that mean? I'm full of male hormones?? :huh:

BTW Vincent you'll have to share your recipe for making Kalhua (sp?) in case I ever get better enough to drink it. I LOVE that stuff....white russians were one of my favorite drinks. I like the sweet stuff....either that or beer. You wont see me drinking any of the hard stuff...Tequila makes me want to puke. Could be that I over did it once as a teen though. Never liked it since. <_<

I will leave no stone unturned! If theres even a remote chance by some freaky coincidence that those cysts have something to do with my allergies....well, I want them gone. B)

Yep--I agree that I'd do almost anything to figure this all out. I have to have another ultrasound in 5-6 months, and I plan on talking seriuosly about having my cysts and fibroid removed. Just scared she'll end up wanting me to have a hysterectomy.

Don't they want you to go on hormones after a hysterectomy? I wouldn't want that either.

Andrea, That is exactly what I don't want. I want to keep all my own "parts"--just the stuff that's not supposed to be there taken off. Does that make sense?

Makes perfectly good sense to me. As much as I hate the monthly cycle I would like to keep all my parts too...unless they turn cancerous on me or something.

I had an enlarged thyroid before my last pregnancy along with elevated AST and ALT. Had all sorts of bloodwork done..they chalked it up to fatty liver since they couldn't figure anything else out. Levels were normal again last year (Sept). Wouldn't surprise me if it was soy or gluten that increased them. Maybe the pregnancy just threw everything off because I was consuming tons of soy and/or gluten products during my pregnancy. The only vegan one I had, he also scored lowest on the apgar compared to the other two. My daughter was a lacto-ovo preg and scored 9, my oldest son was an ovo preg (I ate about 8 eggs per week) and he scored 10, my youngest son as I said was a vegan preg and he scored 8 at five minutes. Anyone want to try and figure that out. I could always have another one with a meat eating diet and see what the apgar is. :P Much as I love babies, I'm getting to old, my parents would kill me (almost did with my third :P ) and the doctors wouldn't be too happy. I've already had 3 c-sections. My daughter was breech, partial separation of the placenta and undergoing stress with prelabor so I had no choice with her and didn't want to take the chance with a VBAC. They considered me high risk as it was because of my age I think. Don't know why...I think that is old school thought. Unless it was because it was going to be my 3rd section. No problems for me whatsoever with any of the surgeries and recoveries aside from overdoing it with my oldest son.

Andrea,

My grandmother had her 7th child when she was 47, she had this one (my mother) at home and natural as with all the rest of her children. I come from a long line of baby makers :P

WHAT???? so there is still hope for me? (44 years old)

Now that I'm gluten-free and not drinking, I think that my, um, selection process for dating candidates will be MUCH healthier than before...... :rolleyes: but I had totally ruled out having children....problem is, I really want grandchildren!! :blink:

Never give up. Sarah was 90. :P

You could also adopt if nothing else...I know it's not the same as having your own, but still a precious child.

Be a girl scout leader/somehow involved in a boy scout pack/lead for campfire/YMCA...

Personally, I have 12 little girls, all 9-10 years old :blink:

Just me, but my girl scout leader was at my graduation and was invited to my wedding. Instant kids without all the trouble of childbirth and diaper changing :P

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Russ H · Posted

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.
