???who are the pilots???

Mitch has been waiting for that question Molly.

Molly,

Yes you are correct the Giants are playing the Dodgers...hope the Giants win...that's my favorite NL West team. BTW, the Pilots were the first Major League team in Seattle in 1969. They only lasted one year before moving to Milwaukee and becomeing the Brewers in 1970. But the Pilots did play the Giants during spring training of 1969 and 1970, if you would like further statistics let me know. Of course, that's when the Giants had names like Mays, McCovey, and Marichal. GO GIANTS!!! I enjoy hearing the broadcast voice of John Miller.

I'll be sure the game and the jumping competitions are both on the calendar ... man ... I'm so dizzy I'm having trouble typing!

Carla--Dizziness is most definately a TMJ disfunction symptom. It was one of my main ones--and the ENT who diagnosed me said I was a "classic case".

Since yours is now exagerated somewhat by the device you are wearing, it makes sense that your dizziness is getting worse.

I would lay down for a while, and see if that helps.

Thanks. I never had dizziness before from it, but it sure makes sense that messing with this joint now could be causing it. I was worried that it was yet another health issue! I'm sitting here in a comfy chair ... thank goodness for laptops with wireless internet!!!

I use a night guard, and have left it at that.

My sister went the same route as you are--she had to have teeth pulled, wore the appliance, and then the braces. She had a lot of dizziness as well. It's all connected. It will lessen as time goes on :)

The night guard wasn't enough for me :( My ortho is not a believer in pulling teeth, which is why I have this appliance, to help spread my jaw so there's more room for my teeth; it also is forcing my facial muscles to hold my jaw in the right place. So, I guess with all the inflammation I probably have with these sore muscles, it must be messing with my inner ear.

I JUST got caught up with the posts (messages in my email, do you guys do that?? Man! That is a lot of emails!).

Dizziness is totally normal for new dental appliances (along with fatigue, headaches, migranes, etc) because all of those things are affected by brain related muscles. And your jaw is right there!! Do you get headaches after going to the dentist?? I do...I have to be careful, or I will get a migrane from getting my teeth cleaned!

Yay, glad you started this thread Rachel

Now we can gab and be goofy without having to add in a little scientificness :lol:

Yes, will The Dave be joining us in the "ville" sans science??

Welcome Molly :)

Carla, that makes my mouth hurt thinking about it. I had braces, twice, and head gears, mouth guards and retainers. Total pain. Hope your pain and dizziness goes away as you get straightened out :)

Thanks. I got the fatigue, too, but I'm kinda used to that and my hubby had warned me because he got it when he got his invisalign.

Wow it was great that this forum was started. I left for a couple days and when I came back I was behind 20 pages on the OMG forum and then Mom told me the conversation was moved to the face thread. There were 8 pages on that thread that I was behind on, and I felt funny reading along that thread since it was about things that don't apply to me. After reading one of those pages, which I quite enjoyed reading I might add, I found this forum. I'm caught up on this one and hopefully it will stay that way :huh::blink:

Since I didn't read the entire OMG forum, I'm confused :blink: Where'd the purple glittery bats come from? I like them, but I don't know how they originated

Thanks. I got a new dental appliance, the next step in taking care of my TMJ and the last step before braces.

I even feel sorry for you....quite a bit actually. That thing can hardly fit in your mouth :angry: At least it's pink and glittery :D

The purple glittery bats help with cross-pollenating the food stuff in the garden by flapping their wings.

They are that color because Susie is not real fond of bats and doesn't want them in her hair and I think Chelsea wanted them made them that color so they would be obvious. They are trained to stay away from Susie.

Mitch comment: In actuality, they were imported by Meredith when she discovered it was a result of a special mating season between the red bats and the blue bats. :lol: During transport on the high seas the high humidity caused such a stickiness on their bodies. Also, the glittering waters of the pristine ocean near R-ville paradise clung to them, therefore, the bats retained the glitter.

Rachelville Vocabulary Update:

1. Relevation (sorta like revelation)

2. Spinach/Spinached/Spinaching

3. Good Googly Moogly (another spin on OMG)

4. Scientificness (science lessons)

5. Wordage

6. Pulled a Dave/”Dave” (rule breaking)

7. Cruel age (too cruel)

8. Presidentness (our lovely Prez has spoken)

9. Pulled a Rachel/”Rachel” (overindulgence in a food item, ie. Ice creamage)

If Celia pull the Ostrich avatar, how is anyone going to know what I look like. I don't have any other photo of me and besides have not figured how to put it on here, even if I did. Her Avatar is the nearest to my looks as any that have been here. I am skinny like the bird, gray hair, real short gray hair, and when I am playful, I can spike it like the bird. My beak is not as pronounced as this bird, but all in all, I am the bird. Of course I wear red lipstick. :blink:

Looking good Molly! Did you get a haircut? I love it!

I'm just passing through Rachelville, I didn't see anything about Moms of gluten-free boys being allowed.

Also, what is Auxigro?

You're allowed, you just have to go through decontamination if you'ver been eating gluten.

A little scientificness to explain....please pardon the break.

Auxigro is something sprayed and conventional and organic crops that is 30% msg. Some people are extremely sensitive and find that they can't eat a lot of produce.

Debmidge....I can't create a job if I don't know your interests/skills. Name would be nice unless you don't want to share (please forgive me if it's in your sig....I will go look).

2boys4me....same thing if you would like a job.

      What do you mean it would not allow any celiac to eat gluten again. I think if this helps cross contamination when eating out at a non dedicated gluten-free restaurant this would be nice not to encounter the pains. But is their a daily enzyme to take to help strengthen the digestive system?

About two months ago, I ate pancakes and then developed severe diarrhea that lasted the entire day. At night, I became unconscious due to fluid loss and was admitted to the ER, where I received IV fluids. Two days later, I ate bread again and once...

      High TTG-IgG and Normal TTG-IgA

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SamAlvi! Were there any other antibody tests ordered? Particularly, was there a "total IGA" test ordered to check for IGA deficiency. When people are IGA deficient, celiac panel IGA test scores, such as the TTG-IGA, are likely not valid. If a total IGA test was not ordered, I would request such to be done. Note:...

      Hi, thank you for the reply. Unfortunately, no other antibody tests were ordered. I am a 32-year-old male. About two months ago, I ate pancakes and then developed severe diarrhea that lasted the entire day. At night, I became unconscious due to fluid loss and was admitted to the ER, where I received IV fluids. Two days later, I ate bread again and once more developed severe diarrhea. I ended up in the ER again and received IV fluids. In my country, Pakistan, doctors are unfortunately not very thorough, so they treated me for a stomach infection. I visited three or four doctors, including a gastroenterologist, but it seemed like they just wanted to keep me on medications and IV fluids. Eventually, I did some digging myself and started connecting the dots. For years, I’ve had excessive gas buildup and frequent loose stools, but I never paid much attention to it. I also cannot easily digest dairy products. Two years ago, I had a CBC test that showed iron deficiency. My doctor told me to eat more meat and said it was nothing serious. However, for the past five years, I’ve also had severe motion sickness, which I never experienced before. Whenever I get on a bus or in a car, I sometimes lose consciousness for 10–20 seconds and wake up sweaty, and occasionally I feel the need to vomit. After more research on the internet, I came across gluten and celiac disease, so I got two related tests (TTG-IgA & TTG IgG) done along with a stool test and another CBC. The stool test showed weakly positive blood. Ever since eating those pancakes and bread, I’ve had a burning sensation in my gut. My doctor reviewed my tests, he told me to completely stop eating gluten and started me on IV fluids for 20 days, saying that I had severe inflammation in my gut. It has now been two months since I quit gluten, and I’m still not sure whether this is celiac disease or gluten intolerance. I don’t really trust doctors in Pakistan, so I thought I might get some help here.

When people are IGA deficient, celiac panel IGA test scores, such as the TTG-IGA, are likely not valid. If a total IGA test was not ordered, I would request such to be done. Note: "Total IGA" goes by other names as well. I will include a primer on celiac disease antibody testing which does a good job in covering the nomenclature variations connected with the various tests. Elevated IGG scores can certainly indicate celiac disease but they are more likely than elevated IGA tests to be caused by something else.

      Am I nuts?

      Thank you— yes, valid and essential— The issue either doctors is that every one I have tried to talk to about this has essentially rolled their eyes and dismissed me as a hypochondriac, which gets discouraging. I believe a diagnosis would help me to be taken seriously by doctors as well as being validating, but can carry on without it.    There are many, probably most people in my area of my age and gender, who avoid gluten, but many just avoid it casually— eating the occasional plate of wheat pasta or a delicious-looking dessert, or baking cookies with wheat flour for gatherings.  That is not an option for me. I don’t eat other people’s cooking or go to restaurants that do not have strict cross- contamination procedures. It can be boring and lonely, and people do look at me as if I am being a bit dramatic but weeks of symptoms after a single small exposure has taught me to respect my experience.    Thank you very much for your response— sometimes I just need to hear that I am not crazy—
