The CS took a minute for me too but other than that, sounds like a quote that I will/can use when something bad happens!

Glad you got drugs to fix you problems so back to work will get more normal!!!

I don't know about anybody else, but I get "pink eye" in my right eye when I've eaten soy. It also makes my lips swell a little bit and I get this weird rash on the corners of my lips and on the bottom. It looks kinda like clown makeup! Only it's never on the top.

But the pink eye thing for me is never the viral kind. I spent an entire summer two years ago on steroids and avoiding everyone I knew b/c I thought it was pink eye, but it's an allergy for me. It's very itchy and achy and watery and I even get a bump like a stye sometimes. Ugh!

Yes, I am feeling better, thanks :)

My eyes still itch but I'm keeping on those eye drops and the impetigo is almost gone (thank God)

Not wearing eye makeup yet <_< As my mom so kindly pointed out, I look like a rat without makeup. Blonde eyelashes. Can't wait! Have to buy all new stuff, I guess.

I had one of those weekends where EVERYTHING went wrong, but can't blame that on the pink eye :rolleyes:

OH BOY, I saw this topic and cringed. Last year, in March 2005, my 1 yr old son, was was just begining to get pink eye, but we didn't know what to look for at the time. He had all the classic symptoms (that we now know). He wasn't quite rid of it when my daughter came down with it about a week in a half later amd the momms about three days later too. Then my husband another week in a half later and then of course, the momma a week 1/2 afterwards AGAIN. We took up the whole month with pink eye!

I remember this rather like it was yesterday, because when my son was just getting it, we had gotten family pictures done for our church year book and he looks awful. :) GRIN

It's contagious all right. The meds and drops did help and boy do you need to wash wash WASH with soap every time after administering and touching.

Oh, well. At least, enjoy the extra time you get not having to put on make-up, and how nice it feels to be able to wash your face whenever you want!

Who says eyelashes have to be dark, anyway? In another 50 years, the fashion trends will swing the other direction, and we'll all be dying our eyelashes blonde!

      Blood results

      By Heatherisle · Posted

      Daughter has started gluten free diet this week as per gastroenterologists suggestion. However says she feels more tired and like she’s been hit by a train. I suggested it could be the change to gluten free or just stress from the endoscopy last week catching up with her. Just wondering if feeling more tired is a normal reaction at this stage. I suppose it’s possible some gluten might have been present without realising. Have tried to reassure her it’s not going to resolve symptoms overnight

      Celiac and allergic to common subs and adds in prepared foods

      By DAR girl · Posted

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      Disregarded

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By Oldturdle · Posted

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.
