I Cant Stand Up

[jerseyangel]

ugh, my stomic is doing the wierd twiching/poping why.... i know i did not get glutend so ihave no clue

After a year gluten-free, I still get that. A lot of times, I have no idea what causes it. I"m just feeling better today after stomach problems for the past week--I swear I wasn't glutened, but that's what it felt like. I'm going back to absolute basics, and see if I can figure it out. For some of us, it takes longer

[Lister]

yeah all of this sucks lol

my heads doing that stupid stoned feeling again(and this time i did not smoke at all today) ugh i hate this feeling. My doctors only answers for anything i bring up is (your healing) gah

I had a question about anemia, i read that one of the symptoms (besides for the heady feeling i get) is loss of color in nails, my finger nails are still a healthy pink, but my toenails are all very bland in color almost grey, like it looks like no blood is in them( i have dead mans toes) not sure if that could be a sign or not probably turning nothing into somthing im good at that i also have incrediably dry hands and skin lately

question unrelated to this topic

are all the adds on this site related to celiac disease? just wondering because there are alot of adds about alzheimers- is there a celiac link? my great grandpa had alzheimers but he is the only one so far

Lister, on one of your other threads I posted how to get cheap and nutritous food for less than $10 a week.

What you are eating (rice cakes, chips) is very expensive for its nutritional value... indeed raice cakes have almost no nutritional value.. this might seem like a lot of hassle, its a lot less than it seems.....

If you buy a bag of chicken offcuts on the bone you can make a weeks food from this and not waste anything.

Im not financially strapped but your diet is expensive... i don't throw away things like carrot peel or chicken bones etc. its full of goodness....

If you eat a chicken and just pull of the meat you are getting less than 50% of the vitamins and protein, the bones are full of gelatin that boils out and take the calcium with it (good for celaics) vitamis etc are concetrated under the skins of vegetables.

There is basically not much to it except thowing the stuff in a big pan and boiling it and then pulling the chicken offcuts out after an hour and pulling the meat off..it will just slide off. Everything else will still be in the pan, if you eat boiled carrots for instance the water is orange because it contains the vitamin 'A' but you thrown that away....

You can often scrounge the tops off leeks or celery or carrots etc from a grocer, they just throw them out. Offer them a $ for a big back if they are heartless!

Touche, Lister! I am old! No harm done, so don't feel bad.

Yet another way to boil eggs: Put six eggs in a sort of deep pot, and cover with cold water. Set pot on burner and turn heat to High. When the water starts boiling, remove pot from burner, put the lid on it, and set timer for 20 minutes. When timer rings, pour off the hot water, set the pot (lid removed) in the sink, fill with cold water, put in a lot of ice cubes, and leave like this for about 30 minutes. This ice bath keeps the yolks from turning green. After that, keep the eggs in the refrigerator.

Deviled eggs require that you discard the shells and use those yellow things inside the eggs. Pulling our collective leg on that one, weren't you, sugar?

Slice the peeled eggs in half lengthwise, reserve the white part, dump the yolks onto a plate, and mash them with a fork. Add salt, pepper, a little vinegar, mustard, and mayo. Mix well until they are creamy but not runny. I don't measure these condiments, so you'll have to experiment to get them to suit your taste. I like salty, sour things, but you might not. Spoon this mixture back onto the egg whites, sprinkle with paprika, and arrange the deviled eggs on a platter. I have several deviled egg plates, but they aren't necessary. Break some wooden toothpicks in half and stick a half, pointed side down, into each egg. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate. (The toothpicks keep the plastic wrap from sticking to the eggs.) It isn't necessary to use the paprika; it's just a southern custom. You could put an olive on each egg half.

When you make egg salad, you could chop some olives and add them. This mixture makes a good sandwich.

I think you're really trying to improve your eating habits, and you seem to be eager to learn. What's worrying us is the lack of protein in your diet. Your brain cells and the rest of your body are begging for protein!

Didn't you say you "risked dairy" recently? That could be the cause of the stomach problems...

[Lister]

would post yesterdays eatings but there nothing really, and when i say nothing i meen nothing since there was a 12 hour gap with no food..... had a very bad angry day yesterday, when i finally got to eat at 10pm i had pork,salad,scrabbeld eggs.

stupid yesterday still mad today about it

[Lister]

i cant find flax seed anywhere besides for Bobs red mill brand, and i dont trust bobs enough to get it

[Danijela]

ugh, everytime i stand up i get really really lightheaded and my ears start to ring wtf is going on.... i feel so tired like i did not sleep at all but i got plently of sleep, i would blame it on some form of food but since my stomic is not bothering me at all (foronce) i dont know what it is, i got vitemens i got b12 pills im eating balanced meals ARG

hey there

this use to happen to me eveytime i stood up it eentually subsided now it happends probably a few times a week sometimes it even happens when i'm standing

my ears ring really bad my vision goes blurry and i get dizzy

i usually just cover my ears with my hands and close my eyes it only lasts about 5 to 10 seconds for me it is scarry though

ive complained about this sooo many time to docs they don't know what it is

i have low iron

blood sugar problems

and labile hypertention

in my case it could be any of the above causing it

are you drinking enough water..... i was told dehydration could cause this as well

[lorka150]

i know some people have a problem with bob's red mill stuff, but i never have and i am very sensitive. i use that flax.

ditto

[Lister]

would post lists but theres nothing to be proud of i guess, still eating some processed stuff. like my cereal, very small amount of chips but i gave up all the engerbars and ricecrispy treats and stuff like that. I did add protein with the eggs though and i have to say WOW it helpd alot thanks for the advice, now instead of having to eat like every 45 minutes its like every 5 hours man it makes a big diffrince. Now i just need to get some omega3, i really dont wanna risk the bobs so i am looking for flax seed oil instead i figure i would use that instead of my olive oil for my cooking

[penguin]

I don't think flax seed oil is meant for cooking, I think it has a really low smoke point. I would add the oil to my salads. Eggs have a lot of Omega-3's

[ravenwoodglass]

Hi Lister, I'm glad the extra protein is helping. ChelsE is right about the lower flash point for Flax, as she said add it to salads etc. In addition Olive Oil also has a low flash point so when I use it for frying stuff I add just a touch of a regular cooking oil. This raises the flash point enough to improve safety. This will also keep butter from burning. I had to almost burn down 2 kitchens before someone gave me this hint. When you use olive oil for frying don't use the Extra Virgin stuff (1st press) go ahead and get some 3rd press (read cheaper, you can tell by the price) plain olive oil. It will be easier on your budget.

that's awesome the protein thing worked. you can try to find omega-3 eggs. that might be an option for you...or you can put flax oil on your salads and stuff...

Lister,

Do you have a Whole Foods in your area? My Whole foods sells Natures Path flaxmeal...its organic too.

[Lister]

nope but i got a co-op i can check out eventually. I have to say wow its been a very plesent few days, i have been pain/stomic problem free for about 3 days, besides in the morning, from the second i wake up tell i eat im in pain but once i eat its goes away. the eggs really have helped it really surpresis the stomic pains for up to 5 hours unlike most food that is 45 min. cant find flax oil yet but i have not got to co-op yet. post more later gtg

[queenofhearts]

Wow, Lister, that's great news! You are inspiring me to eat more eggs.

Hi, Glad things are going well. It is amazing sometimes what a little extra protein can do. If you are going to continue adding eggs frequently to your daily diet I would not worry too much about finding the flax. Eggs are an excellent source of the nutrients that the oil would provide. It sounds like your figured out what your body needed and I am relieved to hear you are doing better.

im doing this in white color, if u want to read highlight, just confused about something figure i would post here instead of in a new thread, but its kinda gross so i figure i would hide it.2 questions. Now i dont really know what a healthy bm is supposed to look like so this could be it but the color of my bms changed overnight, to a very lighter color almost tan, instead of the ordanry greenish color is this normal? also i think i may have a anebia of some sort, i keep having bms that contain a snot like substance, and today the snot had blood in it, its really strange..should i consult my doctor? i think he is just going to reply with "you where already tested for parasites and bactera, its nothing" not sure if i should even worry about it.

[lorka150]

it sounds like fatty stools, associated with celiac... and the blood? DEFINITELY go see the doctor.

[Mango04]

Here is my question:

What is the treatment for parasites? Does it always require medication? I thought there was some sort of anti-fungal diet you could go on to try and eliminate them.

[aprilh]

yesterday was none, it was the day before that i smoked alot, but i felt b etter in the afternoon, today i feel the same but it is not getting better

as for thyroids and blood suger that i dont know

i know they ran like 5 diffrent blood tests, and i had a catscan to test for thyroid problems but other then that im clueless

update- im getting hot cold flashs gar why today

It sounds like your adrenal glands. My symptoms are very similar to those, lightheaded, dizzy, hot and cold flashes, very weak, kidneys hurt, etc. I racked my brain trying to figure out what was wrong with me. I went to the urgent care to have my blood sugar checked (thought I put myself into some kind of diabetic state) and my kidneys/bladder checked. Everything fine. Took my adrenal support (Adaptocrine) and immediately started feeling better.

Stress on the body can stress your adrenals.

Have you been eating gluten? I know when I do I get very mucousy on the inside. I don't know. I think the blood in your bm's mean you are having a "true allergic reaction" to a substance.

[Lister]

it was not like blood blood. it was only in the snot, and i had reguler bms but there was one thing of snot in it that had blood in the snot, not blood on my stools though just on the snot substance. i had 2 of these snot things today, but i also had alot of stools(skinny stools not fat, but they were like skinny and was like a good stream of them) but like i said the blood was only in the snot thing, should i still go see a doctor?

and no i have not been eating gluten, i am very strickt on my diet and have taken every cc thought into mind, and i dont feel glutened infact ifeel pretty good just those worried me

[Lister]

well i just, wanna vent a bit, still looking for answers from my problems above, but this is unrelated

stupid morning stupid eggs. i woke up extra early for work, so i could scramble some eggs and have nice hot eggs for breakfast, i did that, they looked great, then i went to put saranrap on them and the bowl flung out of my hands and onto the floor stupid morning

also i had more snot guys this morning, but no blood just the snot stuff and reguler bms. should i really worry? i dont want to call my doc unless i know its really important because i dont want him to get the wrong idea of me and think im a hypo.

[Lister]

also i keep having shooting pain inside my arse, like somewhere deep in my arse, i get a shooting pain that will last like 1 sec and then go away and then come back and then go away whats going on now
