:ph34r: Donna!

:lol::lol::lol:

Was hoping no one noticed that, lol. :lol:

Hmmm....I'm thinking the cows doing their business on or around our nice fresh rachelville grown veggies is not a good thing. <_<

I hereby object to cows pooping in the vegetable garden! I OBJECT!! (In case you didnt hear me) :D

:lol: The President has spoken!

Then maybe after their poop is composted, we need a poop hauler to take it over and fertilize the garden, the poop won't be smelly at that point. Might be an appropriate job for the town idiot! :lol:

:lol::lol::lol:

Sometimes I go back through recent pages in case I missed something. When this thread is hopping, I am more certain to do that....and when it's slow, I generally don't miss anything. :) You just need to hope it's a day I don't feel like posting. :lol: (which does happen believe it or not). :P

Kind of a punishment for going back into the pages of the OMG thread.... :P

Yes this should be a decree...anyone who goes back should incur punishment, lol. (Okay, maybe only TheDave!) :lol:

I'd like to bring something to everyone's attention--I have done a successful multiple quote post for the first time ever! I'm pretty proud B):lol:

OMGosh...is it true? :lol:

Doesn't poop hauler = attorney :lol::lol::lol:

I think I'd better keep quiet on this one...there IS one attorney (very nice I might add) in my office who has gluten intolerance, lol. :lol:

By-the-way, great picture!

Too funny, Donna do you work at an attorney's office?

Yes, I am the one in the middle. I only put the pic up because it is the only jpg I could find. That picture was from last year, Army 98 Fordham 0. The two guys are my touch judges, I was the referee for the match.

Hi Susan!

Nice to see you :)

That's the thing about company--you have to clean before they arrive, and then again after they leave!!! :lol:

This morning I was literally on my hands and knees cleaning up grease spots all over my kitchen floor. :angry: The funny thing is, they weren't there when I went to bed :blink: Had to have something to do with my son's work boots.....

Nice -- I like it. Too bad I was enlisted.

I hear you. I just hope that I don't get pages behind when I really have to do something. It usually takes me 1/2 hour to an hour to catch up in the morning and I try to be on consistently at night after the kids are in bed....by then it's usually calmed down.

Girls, and our few men, and dingos,

My phone lines went down today so no internet. I was in panic mode, what am I gonna miss on the board :blink::blink:

I have a lot of reading to do to catch up.

Shel Silverstein- I have a collection of his books, he was my favorite growing up- I think I have all of them.

Grease- LOVE IT, I love Grease 2 also, with Michelle Pfiefer (sp?). I watched that over and over and over again when I was 10 or 11, around there. The three questionable songs, not for young ears, "Reproduction" , "Do it For Our Country" and "Gonna Score Tonight", me and my friends would sing them at the top of our lungs, knew every word but didn't know exactly what it meant :lol:

Picard- great picture!!! You are a soccer coach too, right? I thought that is what you said and it looks like you are wearing some kind of sports uniform in the picture...

Susan- I am available to dingosit the bored staring dogs for you :lol:

Back to reading....

OMG julie!!

I LOVE Grease 2!! I think I saw if first before I ever saw Grease....I loved it...have seen it too many times to count. I probably know it by heart. Because I saw it first, I never really liked the original Grease half as much. Nobody else gets this!! Everyone looks at me like I'm off my rocker cuz I like the one with Michelle Pfiefer better.....sue me! :rolleyes:

The songs you named arent my favs though...I liked "I'll be Your Girl For All Seasons", "Cool Rider" and the one at the end...when they're at the luau....cant think of it right now.

I saw Grease in the theater and both Olivia Newton John and John Travolta were wildly popular. They played the songs on the radio, too. It was big summer hit ... I was in high school.

I saw Grease 2 a couple years ago, but I don't remember it. I remember liking it better than I thought I would, but I don't really even remember it being in the theaters.

Okay, showing my age here ... I'll have to rent the second one again. I can see how you could like the second one better if the first was in the theaters before you were old enough to see it there.

      A Future Beyond the Gluten-Free Diet? Scientists Test a New Cell Therapy for Celiac Disease (+Video)

      This is very exciting news. The research lends itself to preventing the immune system in other autoimmune disorders from getting out of sorts. As someone with a compendium of autoimmune disorders I feel a bit of hope.

      Blood Test for Celiac wheat type matters?

      I'm not saying that some celiacs won't need it, but it should be done under a doctor's supervision because it can cause lots of problems in some people.

      Seeking advice on potential gluten challenge

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @JudyLou! There are a couple of things you might consider to help you in your decision that would not require you to do a gluten challenge. The first, that is if you have not had this test run already, is to request a "total IGA" test to be run. One of the reasons that celiac blood antibody tests can be negative, apart from not having celiac disease, that is, is because of IGA deficiency. If a person is IGA deficient, they will not respond accurately to the celiac disease blood antibody tests (such as the commonly run TTG-IGA). The total IGA test is designed to check for IGA deficiency. The total IGA test is not a celiac antibody test so I wouldn't think that a gluten challenge is necessary. The second is to have genetic testing done to determine if you have the genetic potential to develop celiac disease. About 30-40% of  the general population have the genetic potential but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. So, genetic testing cannot be used to diagnose celiac disease but it can be used to rule it out. Those who don't have the genetic potential but still have reaction to gluten would not be diagnosed with celiac disease but with NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity).  Another possibility is that you do have celiac disease but are in remission. We do see this but often it doesn't last.

      Seeking advice on potential gluten challenge

      By JudyLou · Posted

      Hi there, I’m debating whether to consider a gluten challenge and I’m hoping someone here can help with that decision (so far, none of the doctors have been helpful). I have a history of breaking out in a horrible, burning/itchy somewhat blistering rash about every 8 years. This started when I was in my early 30’s and at that point it started at the ankles and went about to my knees. Every time I had the rash it would cover more of my body, so my arms and part of my torso were impacted as well, and it was always symmetrical. First I was told it was an allergic reaction to a bug bite. Next I was told it was eczema (after a biopsy of the lesion - not the skin near the lesion) and given a steroid injection (didn’t help). I took myself off of gluten about 3 weeks before seeing an allergist, just to see if it would help (it didn’t in that time period). He thought the rash looked like dermatitis herpetiformis and told me to eat some bread the night before my blood tests, which I did, and the tests came back negative. I’ve since learned from this forum that I needed to be eating gluten daily for at least a month in order to get an accurate test result. I’m grateful to the allergist as he found that 5 mg of doxepin daily will eliminate the rash within about 10 days (previously it lasted for months whether I was eating gluten or not). I have been gluten free for about 25 years as a precaution and recommendation from my doctor, and the pattern of breaking out every 8 years or so remains the same except once I broke out after just one year (was not glutened as far as I know), and now it’s been over 9 years. What’s confusing to me, is that there have been 3 times in the past 2 years when I’ve accidentally eaten gluten, and I haven’t had any reaction at all. Once someone made pancakes (they said they were gluten-free, they were not) and I ate several. I need to decide whether to do a gluten challenge and get another blood test. If I do, are these tests really accurate? I’m also concerned that I could damage my gut in that process if I do have celiac disease. My brother and cousin both had lymphoma so that’s a concern regarding a challenge as well, though there is a lot of cancer in various forms in my family so there may be no gluten connection there. Sorry for the ramble, I’m just doubting the need to remain gluten free if I don’t have any reaction to eating it and haven’t had a positive test (other than testing positive for one of the genes, though it sounds like that’s pretty common). I’d appreciate any thoughts or advice!

      Hello, just popped in my head to ask this question about medications and celiac? I have always had refurse reaction to meds since I can remember  of what little meds my body is able to tolerate. I was taking gabapentin 300mg for a week,  in past I believe 150? Any ways it amps me up not able to sleep, though very tired.However I did notice it helped with my bloating sibo belly.I hate that my body is that sensitive and medical doesn't seem to take seriously. Im STILL healing with my skin, eye, and now ms or meningioma ( will know in April  which)and dealing with this limbo nightmare. I did write my name, address ect on the reclamation but im not tech savvy and not sure if went through properly. I called my city representative in Stanislaus County and asked if theres a physical paper i can sign for proclamation for celiac and she had no clue about what I was saying, so I just said I'll go back on website.

      Airborne Gluten?

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      I also noticed I get debilitating migraines when I smell gluten, wheat and its not taken seriously when it affects one in every way.Im still begging to properly be heard.I also noticed tolerance level is down the drain with age and life changes. I have been told by incompetent medical that im not celiac or that sensitive. Diagnosed in 1994 by gi biopsy gluten-free ever since along with other lovely food allergies. Prayers
