It is Summerfest time again...It is a huge outdoor music festival here in Milwaukee. It is sooooo much fun to walk around and see all of the bands and dance and eat (I can only get corn on the cob) and drink!! It is Miller country here, or should I say beer country here!!?? We were walking past the Lakefront Brewery stand and there was the NEW GRIST sign!! I drank a cold, tap beer!!! :D Everyone I was with kept laughing at me because I was so excited!! It was the same price as the other beer too!! I kept telling them thank you and could you please bring this back next year.

If anyone is interested in seeing how big of a festival this is, just visit www.summerfest.com. We went to Tom Petty/Pearl Jam on the "pay" stage. All of the other acts were included in the admission price.

How exciting for us!!! :lol:

Wow, I thought tap beer was one of the "never again" treats. What a hope-inspiring story! I too would have been dancing for joy!

Never seen someone so happy to spend 5 dollars for a beer. You see the article in the journal sentinel a few days ago about Lakefront Brewery and New Grist?

I am super duper excited for you! I was at the Taste of Chicago last night... I too enjoyed some corn on the cob... and frozen bananas dipped in chocolate... I miss eating and drinking the other stuff... but I focus on the fun times!!!

I can't believe they had NEW GRIST ON TAP! Very good news.

Smiles to you,

On a side note, I just saw Pearl Jam last night at the MGM Grand Arena.

Eddie was hammered, but performed for almost 2.5 hours straight. The arena went crazy when they played "Betterman", "Alive", "Black" and "Daughter"...

Darn good show!!!

I think it is awesome Anheuser-Busch is consider a gluten free beer...although I really hope Miller jumps on the bandwagon.

Eddie went to my high school (years and years before I did - obviously :)). He apparantly dated our attendance lady (when she was in high school there too). It was pretty funny to think that the lady handing out detentions and Saturday schools used to date Eddie Vedder.

Hmmm... I was guessing that it would be viewed as though at such a big festival they were serving gluten free beer and it was the same price as regular beer. Those that know gluten-free beer at the store, it is a lot more money than regular.

Yes, I did see the article.

I was just joking around about Summerfest's prices, I was not trying to downplay about Lake Front serving New Grist there.

      Severe severe mouth pain

      By Russ H · Posted

      Hi Charlie, You sound like you have been having a rough time of it. Coeliac disease can cause a multitude of skin, mouth and throat problems. Mouth ulcers and enamel defects are well known but other oral conditions are also more common in people with coeliac disease: burning tongue, inflamed and swollen tongue, difficulty swallowing, redness and crusting in the mouth corners, and dry mouth to name but some. The link below is for paediatric dentistry but it applies to adults too.  Have you had follow up for you coeliac disease to check that your anti-tTG2 antibodies levels have come down? Are you certain that you not being exposed to significant amounts of gluten? Are you taking a PPI for your Barrett's oesophagus? Signs of changes to the tongue can be caused by nutritional deficiencies, particularly iron, B12 and B9 (folate) deficiency. I would make sure to take a good quality multivitamin every day and make sure to take it with vitamin C containing food - orange juice, broccoli, cabbage etc.  Sebaceous hyperplasia is common in older men and I can't find a link to coeliac disease.   Russ.   Oral Manifestations in Pediatric Patients with Coeliac Disease – A Review Article

      Severe severe mouth pain

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi @Charlie1946 You are very welcome.   I agree wholeheartedly with @knitty kitty:  "I wish doctors would check for nutritional deficiencies and gastrointestinal issues before prescribing antidepressants." I had a type of tingling/sometimes pain in my cheek about 2 years after my diagnosis.  I noticed it after standing in cold wind, affecting  me after the event - for example, the evening after standing outside, I would feel either tingling or stabbing pain in my cheek.   I found using a neck roll seemed to help, reducing caffeine, making sure I was well-hydrated, taking B12 and C vitamins and magnesium.  Then when the lockdowns came and I was using a facemask I realised that this pain was almost entirely eliminated by keeping the wind off my face.  I think looking back I was suffering from a type of nerve pain/damage.  At the time read that coeliacs can suffer from nerve damage caused by nutritional deficiencies and inflammation, and there was hope that as bodywide healing took place, following the adoption of a strict gluten free diet and addressing nutritional deficiencies, recovery was possible.   During this time, I used to spend a lot of time outdoors with my then young children, who would be playing in the park, and I'd be sheltering my face with an upturned coat collar, trying to stay our of the cold wind!  It was during this time a number of people with a condition called Trigeminal Neuralgia came up to me and introduced themselves, which looking back was nothing short of miraculous as I live in a pretty sparsely populated rural community and it is quite a rare condition.   I met a number of non-coeliacs who had suffered with this issue  and all bar one found relief in taking medication like amitriptyline which are type of tricyclic anti-depressant.   They were not depressed, here their doctors had prescribed the drugs as pain killers to address nerve pain, hence I mention here.  Nerve pain caused by shingles is often treated with this type of medication in the UK too, so it is definitely worth bearing in mind if standard pain killers like aspirin aren't working.
