I learned how to walk in heels when I was 7 in shows, and now i can walk in like 6-inch with no pain!

just get the feet numb, and it wont hurt!

:lol::lol:

I gotta wait till I'm on my home computer....and then I have to wait for a moment in time that I'm not feeling too lazy. :rolleyes:

Possibly, this weekend....depending on the histamine levels and brainfeeze factors. :P

I never really wear dresses....only for special events. My mom getting married qualified....I'm just soooo thankful that I didnt trip or anything like that. I havent had much practice in heels so it was a tiny bit scary.

Yep, that would be pretty embarassing. :ph34r:

If I pm you to death will you change it.....or just ignore my pms? :lol:

One time he called my dad and pretended to be the power company ... it was snowing like mad, and my grandfather had seen that on the news. He asked my dad to walk around the corner to see if the street light was on, so when my dad got back after trapsing in the snow, got on the phone and told grandpa it was on, grandpa said, "Well, blow it out you dummy!"

:lol::lol:

Too funny Carla!!

Rachel you for sure need a new PIC, please, you have had that one forever! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LOL....ummm is since January considered forever?? :lol:

Yeah....I suppose it has been awhile. I switched it a few times but then I got attached to this one. :)

I think this was like my 4th avatar??

I'll put up the purple dress pic this weekend. ;)

went under my user name from google and by god i sent myself a pm

:angry::ph34r::ph34r::ph34r:

I'm going to bed and pull the covers up and hide.

oie..

judy

do a lot of people, outside of us here, know your user name?

I've googled jerseyangel :ph34r: and everything comes up--but that wouldn't happen with 'patti'.

No one--oh my God--except everyone who has my email address--knows my username :o

AndreaB Contributor
I haven't decided yet Andrea, are you going to change yours?

I did a search and they would have to put in "Julie +Celiac" to find me, not just Julie...so I dont know :unsure::unsure:

Probably not. Since I have my last initial it is harder to find me. There are a lot of Andrea's out there. If I type in my name and celiac there isn't even anything on the first page from this forum. Not many people go beyond the first page of google.....except my hubby. :P

I'm not really too concerned about it. As long as we don't broadcast info that can be used for identity theft (which we don't), we should be safe. Also, for those of you that have email available, I would recommend turning it off. The Dave would be one of those. Julie I forget if you were one. I feel it is safer to just give your email to those you want to have it and let everyone else pm you. I pm people 99% of the time anyway.

Speaking of avatars...

<------ Check THAT out!!!!

I've been walking around like that since Saturday. Wasn't supposed to be that color...that's what I get for being too naturally red and trying to get my hair dyed a different color red. Back to the hair lady tomorrow :blink:

i don't think there are enough numbers to count to how many avatars i have had..................

I enjoy that...it keeps us up to date with Molly :P

:lol::lol::lol:

I am the same way! I live in running shoes and cross-trainers, or thongs, definitely everything flat, or at least nothing over a 2 inch wide heel. When I was in my brother's wedding I thought I was going to trip for sure going down the aisle in my bride's maid's heels.

:lol: Whenever I say thongs, all my kids think I'm talking about underwear!! :lol:

I like the color, never done anything with my hair no dye, no highlights, just natural highlights from the sun.

I have too much time and too many pictures on my computer to deal with...........................

I'm trying to remember the last time I wore high heels.... :unsure:

You guys are funny, I wear high-heels frequently!! Adam like them, so whenever we go out, and I usually wear them to Church, unless I'm feeling crummy (I play flute, so I always feel obligated to wear a skirt). And I mean HIGH heels!! And I'm tall to begin with!

Rachel--24 Collaborator

I told a couple people about Rachelville.......I highly recommend not doing this. I think its like the 2nd or 3rd hit that will come up on a search. :blink:

I googled "Rachel" and "Gluten" once and it brought me straight to the board. :o

Chelsea,

I like your wedding pics. I still like seeing you even if you don't like the color. Repost when you get it redone. One more week....are you dancing in the streets yet? :P

What's the matter with it? I think it's very pretty--in the picture, anyway.

It looks very soft and feminine B)

(I had to edit out the arrow, it looked like I was pointing at myself)

that's what happened to me..you could see where I was on the forum and god forgid..you could click on the email i guess without registering on celiac.com???? now that's scarey if true.

oie

how hard is it to change now.

at least my picture isn't here.

breathe judy breathe.

For me it was just that my name is so different it wouldn't take a genius to figure it out. I just tried Tavi again and was able to get my profile, listing where I live, email, d.o.b. etc. kind of scary, but haven't decided if I will do anything more about it, what are the chances someone would want to come looking for me for anything bad, unless there is some kind of stalker that liked old women! :lol::lol::lol: Well, guess there could be and now I am scared :o:o:o

Where is Susan the Dingo girl? Something has changed here!

For some reason, I thought you were blonde ... it's a little bright, are you getting lots of looks? It's hard to tell from a pic, but if your getting looks, it might need to be redone!!

Chelse, I love your new picture! I love the color of your hair :)

:lol: Judy, take deep breaths

:lol: Patti, omg!

Molly I wish I had some of your height

If I type in my name and celiac, something comes up on the 2nd page. Same thing for my name and gluten.

      Hi Jmartes, It sure is difficult to get useful advice from medical providers. Almost 20 years  ago a Dr suggested that I might have Celiacs and I took a Celiac Panel blood test. No gluten challenge diet. On that test the tTG was in normal range but an alpha antibody was very high. I went online and read about celiac disease and saw how I could investigate this low tTG and still have celiac disease. Normal tTG can happen when a person had been reacting for many years. Another way is that the person has not been eating enough gluten to raise the antibody level. Another reason is that the tTG does not show up on a blood but may show up on a fecal test. Almost all Celiacs inherit at least one of the 2 main Celiac genes. I had genetic tests for the Celiac genes at Enterolab.com. I inherited one main Celiac gene from one parent and the report said that the DQ gene I inherited from my other parent, DQ6, could cause a person to have more problems or symptoms with that combination. One of my grandmother's had fairly typical symptoms of Celiacs but the other grandmother had severe food intolerances. I seem to show some problems inherited from both grandmothers. Human physiology is very complex and researchers are just beginning to understand how different body systems interact.  If you have taken an autosomal DNA test you can download your raw data file and upload it to Prometheuw.com for a small fee and search for Celiac Disease. If you don't find any Cekiac genes or information about Celiac disease  you may not have autoimmune gluten intolerance because more than 99% of Celiacs have one or both of these genes.  PLEASE ASK QUESTIONS IF YOU WANT TO KNOW EHAT i HAVE DONE TO HELP WITH SYMPTOMS.

      I can't prove it, but I truly believe I have been glutened by airborne particles. I used to take care of shelter cats once per week at a pet store, and no matter how careful I was, I would get glutened each time even if I wore a mask and gloves and washed up well after I was done. I believe the problem was that because I'm short, I couldn't do the the tasks without getting my head and shoulders inside their cages, and so the particles from their food would be all over my hair and top of my shirt. Then I had to drive home, so even if I didn't get glutened right then, the particles would be in my car just waiting for me to get in the car so they could get blown into my face again. I gave up that volunteer gig and stopped getting glutened so often and at such regular intervals.

      Hello, @MogwaiStripe, Vitamin D is turned into its activated forms by Thiamine.  Thiamine deficiency can affect Vitamin D activation. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14913223/ Thiamine deficiency affects HLA genes.  HLA genes code for autoimmune diseases like Celiac, Thyroiditis, Diabetes, etc.  Thiamine deficiency inside a cell triggers a toggle switch on the gene which in turn activates autoimmune diseases carried on the gene.  The reference to the study is in my blog somewhere.  Click on my name to go to my page, scroll down to the drop down menu "Activities" and click on blogs.

      Hello, @annamarie6655, Yes, there's many of us who react to airborne gluten!   Yes, animal feed, whether for chickens or cats or dogs, can release airborne gluten.  I can get glutened from the bakery section at the grocery store.   The nose and mouth drain into the digestive system and can trigger systemic reactions.   I find the histamine release in response to airborne gluten will stuff up my sinuses and bother my eyes.  High histamine levels do cause anxiety and migraines.  The muscle spasms can be caused by high histamine, too.  The digestive system may not manifest symptoms without a higher level of gluten exposure.   Our bodies make an enzyme, DAO (diamine oxidase), to break down histamine.   Pyridoxine B 6, Cobalamine B12, Vitamin C, copper, zinc, and iron are needed to make DAO.  DAO supplements are available over the counter.  Taking a B Complex supplement and additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) helps reduce the amount of histamine being released.  Mast cells without sufficient Thiamine have an itchy trigger finger and release histamine at the slightest provocation.  Thiamine helps mast cells refrain from releasing their histamine.    I find taking additional TTFD thiamine helps immensely with neurological symptoms as TTFD can easily cross the blood brain barrier without a carrier.  High histamine in the brain can cause the muscle spasms, anxiety and migraines.  Vitamin C really helps with clearing histamine, too.   The Digiorno pizza mystery reaction could have been caused by a reaction to the cheese.  Some people develop lactose intolerance.  Others react to Casein, the protein in dairy, the same as if to gluten because Casein resembles the molecular structure of gluten.  An enzyme used in some dairy products, microbial transglutaminase, causes a gluten reaction because it is the same as the tissue transglutaminase our bodies make except microbes make it.  Those tTg IgA blood tests to diagnose celiac disease measure tissue transglutaminase our bodies release as part of the autoimmune response to gluten.   You're doing great!  A Sherlock Holmes award to you for figuring out the connection between airborne gluten and animal feed!!!
