I can't wait for the season premiere. There are supposed to be a couple of catch-up episodes coming up soon. I can't remember the dates!

Count me in! It's one of my favorite shows. I like reading all the spoilers to see what's going to happen, even though that kind of ruins the fun :)

A link to the spoilers please?

My husband prides himself on being able to predict stuff on that show. Messing with him would be a lot of fun for me....

Yeah, what's up with the 4 toed statue? I almost fell of the couch when Sayid said, " I don't know what is more disquieting -- the fact that the rest of the statue is missing, or that it has 4 toes?"

If you really must ruin it for yourself...here is the ABC board with countless links to other sites

It all makes sense now! DHARMA is actually the FOX network and the prison break cast are the "OTHERS"! I guess there's no need to watch another minute :P

I get a lot of my good spoilers from Kristin at Eonline. She does chats every Monday that are transcribed on Tuesdays and sometimes she mentions stuff in her columns, which are posted on Fridays. I find she has the most reliable stuff out there.

Happy spoiling!

I watch the ABC plot board. There is inevitably some supposed "insider" who emerges every season and posts the whole episode in detail Weds. afternoon. Kind of takes the fun out of it, but with all of the re-runs I can't take the anticipation - I can't wait! I guess this season they are starting later, running 7 or 8 epi's taking a break of a few weeks and then running straight thru to May with new epi's. Less re-runs are better if you ask me.

Oh, great, now another place to go to spoil me :)

I agree--I like having the episodes in sets so that way there are fewer reruns throughout the year; Lost can get complicated, so hopefully it will be easier to follow this way, too.

Yes! I was so glad to hear that they will run a series of episodes, take a break, and run the rest of them with no reruns. I agree it's hard enough to follow, and having a rerun or 4 in between makes it worse! :blink:

Good to know, thanks Richard for the info.

I need a refresher before the new season starts so I am glad they are running this first.

I do too, Julie--it's been so long since the last new episode.

My boyfriend and I cannot wait!!! The best thing that has ever happened to our love for Lost has been getting Tivo. Now we can rewind, fast forward, pause, go in slow motion, and not believe each other when we swear we see a clue in the background. I cannot wait. lostpedia.com is the best spoiler site i've seen.

We have to wait for Lost until next FEBRUARY (2007), and I hate being spoiled (and can't download episodes fast enough) so you won't see me in this thread soon :P

I looove Lost.

The way it screens here is all the way through, new episode every week (with the exception of maybe 1 or 2 reruns depending on timing between stations in ratings periods). That's why we wait until February I guess ...

      @Scott Adams @knitty kitty @cristiana @trents Thank you everyone, I should add, I forgot to mention, I did have an upper endoscopy around the time and that came back all clear/perfectly fine , so with both of those I always ruled out celiac disease , especially considering sometimes I'm absolutely fine with gluten

      Testing

      Hello, @Deborah123, Which blood tests for Celiac did your son have? TTg IgA tests may throw false negatives in children because of immature immune systems. That's why a complete Celiac panel should be done which includes total IgA, tTg IgA, DGP IgA and DGP IgG and tTg IgG. Insufficient gluten consumption in the weeks prior to testing can result...

      Sammy, I have doubts as to whether you were eating enough gluten to render any of the celiac testing you had done valid. Recently revised guidelines for pretest celiac blood antibody analysis is the daily consumption of at least 10 g of gluten (about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for at least 2 weeks before the blood draw.

      @cristiana Hello ! the first time I sent it off there was a failure and they needed to be redone , whilst I was waiting for this information I was off gluten, then I reintroduced it for a couple of days before going to have it tested again. But I had such a low score that the doctor said it would be quite unlikely to be celiac based off my results, even after...

      Hello, @Deborah123, Which blood tests for Celiac did your son have?  TTg IgA tests may throw false negatives in children because of immature immune systems.  That's why a complete Celiac panel should be done which includes total IgA, tTg IgA, DGP IgA and DGP IgG and tTg IgG.    Insufficient gluten consumption in the weeks prior to testing can result in false negatives as well.  Updated gluten challenge guidelines call for TEN grams of gluten per day (equivalent to five or six slices of bread or equivalent) for a minimum of two weeks prior to testing.   Also, low iron levels and anemia can result in false negatives.  Has your son's iron levels been checked?  Vitamin D and thiamine levels should be checked as well. You may want to consider genetic testing for both you and your son, as celiac disease is genetic. Yes, your mother's instincts are correct.  Keep pushing for more testing!   Keep us posted on your progress!

But I had such a low score that the doctor said it would be quite unlikely to be celiac based off my results, even after only eating for a few days. @Scott Adams thank you sir! I shall lay off the gluten for a few weeks and take it from there. I shall keep posted! Thanks again
