He's in France. He's probably sleeping ... boy will he be surprised when he wakes up!! :lol::lol::lol:

I have no idea about the time change between here and France--is it even the same day? :unsure:

Riceguy, haven't I read on your posts that you are still trying to come to the bottom of your health concerns?

Well, like I said, I do believe I found the culprit. I'm still recovering though, so maybe that's what you had read. It seems to be taking some time for the toxins to clear out. I can understand that since I was doing so badly for so long. I can feel the improvement day by day.

Thanks for the idea of adrenal fatigue though. I will look it up and see if it applies, but I can certainly say I didn't react well to meat even a number of years ago. So if adrenal fatigue is an issue, then I'd guess it would had to have been with me a long time.

For anyone looking to increase protein intake, but cautious about meats, try T'eff. It has more protein than many other grains. Low in fat too, if that's a requirement. I think Flax might actually have even more protein than Teff, plus the omega-3 is really good. Thing is, I doubt Flax makes a good cereal. It's usually just sprinkled on food or into recipes. Millet ain't bad either, and it's very digestible and well tolerated by most people with allergies to other things.

No I know not everyone beleives in santa

Phased?

Certainly, the shoe elves are usually very reliable. I don't know what they have done with my shoes and the underpants gnomes have stolen my pants.... of course I'm phased!

Underpant gnomes :o

Phased, indeed!

You know the little guys who come i the night and steal your underware.

Its usually odd socks but sometimes other stuff gopes missing only to turn up hidden in a comforter cover or something later...

Don't you have them in America?

To check you need a packet of lucky charms and dig a big hole .. in the morning you can pull out assorted eleves, gnomes and fairies. If you live near an airport you can get leprechauns as well who stow away in the wheel arches of Air Lingus jets!

It might be. I much prefer a physics model as a means of explanation. For instance, one might suppose that the temperature inversion combined with the angular momentum of the rotating drum sets up a sympathetic resonance on a hyperdimensional level. As electrical discharges (from static electricity) occur in this region, a rift opens, quickly forming into a vortex due to the rotation. This is what physicists call a "worm hole", which is essentially a portal into a another part of the universe, or even another dimension. Granted, this can only be theory until someone devises a method to test it.

Or it could just be that your missing sock is stuck inside another article of clothing, or still clinging to the inner surface of the washer.

That's how the underpants gnomes travel here from their dimension!

Luckily I sell a special antiwormhole device I can sell for only $200 that prevents this....

send all money to ascammer@scam.net quickly before you loose out.

Only limited socks left.. I mean stocks left.

Is it just me or is this getting silly :D

With six kids, we lose more socks than I buy, and no I have not figured out how that happens ... but I know I can keep my kids in socks for a long time for $200!! I bet you don't sell many of those!!

Ooo... hold on

Gnomes spread disease!

(how's that for a scam :D)

Did you ever see Amelia, hmm, that's not right, I don't think, but it was a French movie and the yard gnome traveled the world? Great flick, even though I had to rely on subtitles.

Come on guys, we're all old enough to know how to handle the sock monsters. I'm in Ireland so its mostly leprecuans here.

A usefull fact is that most leprecuans are celiac, so just leave em a bowl of cookies and they wont bother you again. Otherwise your only hope is the gnome trap with lucky charms as previously described.

However the lucky charms will also attract toothfairies. If the fairies are left trapped with the gnomes overnight, well . . . in the morning it ain't pretty.

Really the best way is to keep your socks in a timed safe. Only set it to unlock once a day.

Sock Problem

when I was 16 I dated this fella I liked alot. I also used to use the dryer to iron my clothes...you know about 5 minutes of tumbling the wrinkles are gone.

Well we went ... movies and food and sat in his car after date, just talking. Anyway, all of a sudden during our date I feel something scratching my back....I place my hand by my collar in back and like a magician I pull a white sports sock out of my blouse! I was so embarassed .....

When I was in kindergarten I found one of my dad's socks in my sleeve. I was so embarassed and didn't want to answer questions about why I had a man's sock that I left it there all day!!!

Did you ever get another date with him?

These stories are hilarious. :) It reminds me of a time I was taking karate class and I did a kick and a pair of underwear that had been caught in the pants in the dryer, came flying out the end of the pant leg. :P

Ooh, Nancy, there's no topping that! :D I did walk around with a pair of undies in a sweater sleeve for several days once, but luckily (this was in high school...) I was alone when I discovered tham. phew! :P

another date? no. As teenaged romances go, it was over before it began. I don't know if he even saw the sock as it was dark...I don't think we had another date after that one.....I occasionally do still speak with him and he never married or held a long-term relationship. He's a loner - artistic type.

      I realized it is actually important to get an official diagnosis because then insurance can cover bone density testing and other lab work to see if any further damage has been done because of it. Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have 4 kids, and I really want to know. If I really do have it then they may have increased risk.

      Been off this forum for years. Is it that important that you get an official diagnosis of something? It appears like you had a trigger (wheat, gluten, whatever) and removing it has resolved your symptom. I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free condition. I was diagnosed over 20 years ago and have been symptom free only excluding wheat, rye and barley. I tolerate all naturally gluten free whole foods including things like beans which actually helps to form the stools. 
    • trents
      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.
    • SilkieFairy
      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a coincidence, but the brain fog is back and I feel very tired.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed.
