VydorScope Proficient

Hmm mine is very borring. :) When I was in 9th grade I had to write a story about an alien that visited the Earth, so I named him by randomly iserting and removing letters from my frist name and came up with "Vydor". Later I wanted to regesiter on an astronomy forum, but my name was to short, so I added "Scope" to the end of it (which is comon slang for a telescope amongst cool ppl :P ).

I think my real name is more intresting cause if you translate it to its meaning, rougly you get "Victorus Conquer (of) Goldfish!" So all you ppl's with Koi pounds watch out ! :lol:

jesscarmel Enthusiast

Jess is my first name and carmel is my hebrew name and middle name, named after a mountain in israel!

ArtGirl Enthusiast

I like to paint and draw (watercolor, pencil, colored pencil and ink). Other artsie names were already taken so I ended up with this one. I kind of like it.

My mum can never remember whether my name starts with a K or a C, so she will use both, even in the same card. So it had to be Kaycee.

I just can't figure out what my mums problem is, she named me, so why or how can she get it wrong?

Cath (I think that's right)

I am mildly dyslexic and have never been a good speller. I named my son Jeffrey (or was that Jeffery) and for the life of me I can't be absolutely certain how I spelled it for his birth certificate. I often called him Jeff-er-ee - so that confused me even more. Yeah, can relate to your mother's spelling problems.

And I thought carmel was your last name. :P

beaglemania Rookie

I oculdn't really think of a username, so I just chose beaglemania. Which obviously means I'm crazy about beagle puppies!!

ÆON Newbie
Aeon - I've always loved the ae combination character too. There was someone on a message board that I used to go to named Maendi, which was her real name. I never did figure out how she pronounced it though.

Jules - I LOVE (!!!) the squiggles. I wish I would have thought of that. I may borrow the idea someday.

I've used Nantzie as a username since the dawn of time; since around 1995. It comes from my childhood. A friend of mine and I were being goofy with our names one day. She decided to be Melon-E and said I should be Nan-Z. We decided after saying my name a thousand times (like ya do...) that there was definitely a T in there somewhere and it evolved from there. I like it because I never have a problem finding a username that nobody has taken. B)

I've thought about figuring out a different username. Maybe I'll change it to Naentzie or ~Nancy~ someday. :D

Nancy

Naentzie! Oh I love it. I can just see the vein sticking out in someones forehead as they try to figure that out. :lol:

chewymom Rookie
LOL, I used a sling, cook from scratch (don't bake though), and have six kids .... odds are you homeschool ... right? I did for ten years ...

I have homeschooled a couple of times, but public school is a good fit for us at this point! :)

It is kinda fun to watch someone's eyes roll up in their head when I give my email address to someone already. If I throw in the ae, I can only imagine...

Reminds me of that Steve Martin movie with Sarah Jessica Parker. Her name was SaNDeE - "Big S, small a, big N, big D, little e, Big E, and then I put a little heart at the end." Sounds like a username to me...

PS: Most of you already know this, but my username is obvious too, I think...I'm completely obsessed with sports, so I call myself the #1 Habs fan (Habs = Montreal Canadiéns for those who dont know)...My hockey collected has grown to almost 300 items! That is also why I must ALWAYS use red font, its the colour of the Habs :P

Yea, us, too. It seems that most large families have homeschooled at one point or another.

Can you tell I like jeans. I must have about 30 pair. I won't buy sweats cuz they only look good the first couple times you wear them then they shrink and look sloppy. I have two sisters with the same obsession and we always talk about making a trip to Chicago and spending the whole day trying on jeans and eating.

Guest melannen

Melannen is my name in Sindarin Elvish (according to Open Original Shared Link). There were a couple translations of Jessica (my real name) to choose from, but I liked Melannen best. Literally translated it means "Beloved One".

snapple Apprentice

when my husband and I were dating, he suddenly called me snapple one day. I looked at him and very stupidly asked "Are you thirsty?" he said no, so I asked him what he meant. He told me he called me snapple because of their slogan "made from the best stuff on earth". I don't care who you are, that will make you melt ( I know I did). Anyway, I used it because I figured there were a ton of Kates out there but no snapples. Plus, it still makes me melt when he calls me that.

I use the number 4 because my birthday is 4/4. My typical username for things is Mangotiki (that one's just too hard to explain) but I decided to make it a bit less odd for this site.

Mango, I know what a mango is, and I know what a tiki is, but is it the same tiki as in a New Zealand souvenir?

mumseyh Rookie

My real name is Nancy, but my daughter calls me mumsey. She loves British literature, and likes they way they refer to mother as "mum". Now that she is away at college, and look forward to her sweet little voice on the phone saying "hi mumsey".

      Maybe you have a low  intolerance to Wheat.   Rye, Barley and Malt are the gluten in Celiac disease.  It has always been stated Wheat and Gluten, not just a Wheat intolerance.  Barley will keep me in bed for (2) weeks.  Gut, Migrains, Brain fog, Diahrea.  It is miserable.  And when I was a toddler the doctor would give me a malt medicine because I always had Anemia and did not grow.  Boy was he off.  But at that time the US didn't know anyone about Celiac.  This was the 1940s and 50s.  I had my first episode at 9 months and did not get a diagnosis until I was 50.  My immune system was so shot before being diagnoised, so now I live with the consequences of it. I was so upset when Manufacturers didn't want to label their products so they added barley to the product.  It was mostly the cereal industry.  3 of my favorite cereals were excluded because of this. Malt gives me a bad Gut reaction.

      Thanks much Scott.  Well said, and heeded.   I don't have Celiac, which is fortunate.

      Do you have the results of your endoscopy? Did you do a celiac disease blood panel before that?  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      It is odd that your Tissue Transglutaminase (TTG) IgA level has bounced from the "inconclusive" range (7.9, 9.8) down to a negative level (5.3), only to climb back up near the positive threshold. This inconsistency, coupled with your ongoing symptoms of malabsorption and specific nutrient deficiencies, is a strong clinical indicator that warrants a more thorough investigation than a simple "satisfactory" sign-off. A negative blood test does not definitively rule out celiac disease, especially with such variable numbers and a classic symptomatic picture. You are absolutely right to seek a second opinion and push for a referral to a gastroenterologist. A biopsy remains the gold standard for a reason, and advocating for one is the most direct path to getting the answers you need to finally address the root cause of your suffering.

      There is a distinction between gluten itself and the other chemicals and processing methods involved in modern food production. Your experience in Italy and Greece, contrasted with your reactions in the U.S., provides powerful anecdotal evidence that the problem, for some people, may not be the wheat, but the additives like potassium bromate and the industrial processing it undergoes here. The point about bromines displacing iodine and disrupting thyroid function is a significant one, explaining a potential biological mechanism for why such additives could cause systemic health issues that mimic gluten sensitivity. It's both alarming and insightful to consider that the very "watchdog" agencies meant to protect us are allowing practices banned in many other developed countries. Seeking out European flour and your caution about the high-carb, potentially diabeticgenic nature of many gluten-free products are excellent practical takeaways from your research, but I just want to mention--if you have celiac disease you need to avoid all wheat, including all wheat and gluten in Europe.
