Poor Olivia :( Glad she's feeling better today.

They told the story of Sun and how she had the affair--we saw some of it last year. Her father caught the two of them together and ordered Jin to kill him. Jin warned him, but didn't kill him--but the guy jumped out the window with the necklace he had offered Sun in his hand. Guess he really loved her...

Sawyer and Kate were made to work in the rockpile all day--Sawyer kissed Kate, and was shocked by the guard for it. The female guard called Sawyer by his real first name--James.

Pointy face introduced himself "properly" to Jack. Said he's lived there all of his life (!) And if Jack cooperates, he will take Jack home.

You saw the end, right--where Sun was on the boat and Colleen and the others came on?

Way Back Machine :lol:

Thanks for the re-cap.

I watched it again last night ... the second show I've seen. So, did all these people end up on this island from the same plane crash? I know, basic question, the other story lines are a bit easier to pick up on.

The folks that are in captivity and the folks on the beach (you haven't seen them yet) and the folks with the boat all crashed on the island. The "others" (the folks who are causing all the comotion) we don't know an awful lot about. It appears that they have been on the island a long time and may have been part of some strange experiments (I warn you - this is a slippery slope...if you Google the DHARMA initiative you will be sucked into a vortex from which there is no return :huh: ) This show is so great because of all the mythology they have built in and the method of presenting the story in bits and pieces of flashbacks...I could go on all day... :P

The people who came out of the houses last week were not on the plane--they're referred to as "the others" and we're just now learning more about them.

The prisoners, people on the boat last night and the others back at the camp were all in the same plane crash.

There are still others on the island who probably crashed there years ago--that's the thing with this show--the more questions they answer, the more we still don't really know :blink:

We're lucky that we have Tivo--more than once, we have had to go back and watch something again--there are lots of little clues and things that are easily missed.

:lol: Patti

The female guard called Sawyer by his real first name--James.

Last night was the first time, that I noticed, that anybody actually acknowledged the "others" know all this stuff about them, that nobody else knows. When Kate said, why did she call you James.

Wouldn't they be discussing daily how creepy it is that they know all these inside facts :lol:

The interesting thing about this was at the end of the show when they were in the cages discussing this -- Sawyer and Kate. Sawyer seemed to kiss her and get in trouble to see how everyone reacted and how they fought. He took note of it all. It seemed to be a strategic move.

I loved the scene where the weird guy told the prisoner that the Red Soxs won the World Series. So funny.

I know--like last week when Sawyer and Kate were put in cages opposite each other--why didn't they ask questions or talk about the whole ordeal? It seemed odd.

Also, last week Juliet had that folder that she said was "Jack's life".

Remember when Kate and the creepy French lady and, I can't recall who the third person was, Claire I think, went to find that other station?? They didn't come back to the group and say, hey guess what we found? They don't talk to each other to put all the clues together :lol:

Drives me mad!

Julie--You're right about the kiss. The way he looked at her after the guard spoke to her crudely--it was so expressive. You could see his face change.

The other thing that bothers me, other than them not comparing notes, is that they will still go off into the jungle alone. I would go nowhere alone on that island :D

I think they call it "suspension of disbelief"... you need a healthy dose for this show or you'll throw something thru the TV

I loved the episode last night!

The airport scene was really good (Hurley and Pointy Face were both employees of the airline--AND remember, Hurley was the one who had to bring Jack, Sawyer and Kate to the others) :o

Also Desmond's back--and naked :rolleyes:

Didn't see 'Eddie was a cop' coming, though :blink:

Richard--come out of your sweatlodge and discuss! :lol:

It's pretty addicting! If you ever have the time, I'd suggest getting the first 2 seasons on DVD--a lot of the storylines are long-running. It would answer some questions for you, but not many :lol: --they tend to keep piling on the mystery! :blink:

Do we know if he ended up shooting the undercover cop?

Julie,

No, he didn't--he put his gun down, and Eddie ran off through the woods. I'm expecting he'll show up soon on the island :D

I wanna know what's in the wacky paste!

Charlie-Locke banter was funny (shoe's on the other foot :P )

The whole search for Eko was kind of pointless, Look at the hole were the hatch was - must have imploded...oh look here's Hurley...Oh the bear cave, better get out my hair spray (Charlie's "I hate to be the one to bring this up..." LMAO!)...What kind of polar bear drags it's lunch around still alive? (I know one that lives on a tropical island and is sick of fish biscuits!)

Hurley and Desmond scene was hilarious ("Ok DUDE I'm not alone!")

Where do I know the cop from?

Charlie needs to get his hair cut.

Boone/airport scene was great/funny.

Is the guy- Mike i think, the same guy that plays Zeke/Tom? He looked familiar

Next week looks like another good one!

I thought the same thing, Mike (?) definitely looked familiar, like we have seen him before.

Not sure about the torture for next week :blink:

I'm not worried, they always build it up in the promos and it never seems to be the same story once the epi. airs. Sawyer is probably getting his nails done. Kate is crying over 3 days of fish biscuits. "Do you Love HIM?" probably some sick Other's device to break them down...Barry Manilow "Do you Love HIM?"...No, well then no fish biscuits for you. :)

Julie--I agree about the torture for next week. Hope they were just hyping it up for the preview and there won't be too much of it.

Richard--The part with Hurley and Desmond: Hurley was acting like a GIRL when he saw Desmond--he was so embarassed! :lol:

Hairspray line--too funny.

Charley's hair--it looks like his is the only hair that grew during the time there.

I also thought Boone looked better--did he lose weight or something? He used to have a pasty/red thing going on on his face.

Had the cop been on before?--I couldn't tell.

I didn't think it was possible, but Boone got prettier after he died!

I don't know if the cops has been on before. I know I have seen him somewhere before (NOT on this show, but somewhere)...I just can't place him

I forgot about Desmond running naked through the forrest, er, what do you call that on an island? The bush? With his hair blowing in the wind. That was kinda funny.

And, ooh, he can see the future :blink: Creepy.

I thought Boone looked thinner because of his longer hair do?

um, yeah, I"ve tried and tried (but not consistently), and I am utterly confounded.....Richard says I have to pop popcorn and rent all the seasons on DVD - makes my stomach hurt just thinking about it.... :blink:

Locke not being able to talk and his "vision" :blink:

Yes, I think I saw this part, did he ask to TALK TO THE ISLAND??? holy Lord. that is the moment I think I broke up with the show for good. :lol:

      Recurring flu like symptoms after being precribed immune system stimulating drug

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      With all the bloodwork, have they checked your vitamin D?  What is it?  Celiac Disease causes malabsorption, so vitamin deficiencies are common.  Doctors rarely mention this. B1 Gastrointestinal beriberi, a severe thiamine deficiency, is characterized by symptoms including anorexia (loss of appetite), abdominal discomfort and pain, nausea, and vomiting. Other potential symptoms like abdominal fullness, indigestion, and constipation can also occur. These gastrointestinal issues may resist standard treatments, signaling a need to consider thiamine deficiency.  It is commonly believed that thiamine deficiency is not an issue in the western cultures, so rarely address by doctors. Doses of thiamine above 100 mg several times a day will quickly show improvement.  Borderline deficiency will come and go depending on what your eat.  Carbs use it up faster, so for example if you eat a lot of carbs today, tomorrow you may have symptoms.  Thiamine (Benfothiamine is a synthetic fat soluable thiamine) is water soluable, we only store maybe a weeks worth, and there is no upper limit on how much you consume.  Excess is stored or peed away.   For them it isn't a oroblem.  LOL.  They just say some people are like that and see the next patient.

      Recurring flu like symptoms after being precribed immune system stimulating drug

      By sillyac58 · Posted

      I used the cream for 4 days as prescribed 3 years ago. While I cannot be sure it triggered these problems, the timing is very suspicious. Yes, the oats are gluten free, and while I knew some celiacs have a problem with oats, I only just thought to eliminate them.  I just read about corn on this website, which I do eat plenty of. I do eat dairy, and would be so terrible sad to give it up, but..... Thank you for the diary suggestions. I'll start one today. Thanks for responding!

      Recurring flu like symptoms after being precribed immune system stimulating drug

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @sillyac58! Are you still using this topical medication for this precancerous spot on your lip? If not, are you saying you used it for a limited time and believe it triggered additional ongoing immune system reactions with unpleasant symptoms? I'm not clear on this. Are the oats you use certified gluten free? You may know this already, but even if they are certified gluten free, the oat protein avenin is similar enough to gluten to cause reactions in some celiacs. The development of other food intolerances is also common in the celiac community. Common offenders in addition to oats are dairy, eggs corn and soy. Dairy and oats are the most common, however. You might do well to keep a food diary and check for patterns.

      Recurring flu like symptoms after being precribed immune system stimulating drug

      By sillyac58 · Posted

      I was diagnosed about 10 yrs ago with Celiac by presenting with dermatitis herpetiformis rash. I had no stomach or intestinal discomfort, but of course showed intestinal damage. The dermatitis herpetiformis eventually went away and I've been religiously gluten free ever since. About 3 years ago I was given a topical drug by a dermatologist for pre cancerous spot on my lip. The drug is called Imiquimod/Aldara, and works by stimulating your immune system. ? The package insert and many releable online sources warn to use caution using this drug if one has an auto immune disease, I hace since found out. One of the side effects is flu like symtoms, which I had at the 10 day mark as warned. But these symptoms have been recurring regularly ever since. Low grade nausea (no vomiting), extreme fatique (sleeping in daytime) and often a migraine headache on day one or two. The bouts last around 5 days or more, usually the nausea being the persistent symptom. My dermatologist, and another I went to for second opinion say this isn't a problem. I have been ill about a third of my life ever since. I have had extensive bloodwork, been to numerous specialists, but cannot figure out what is making me sick. I have become neurotic about gluten at home, using separate cutting boards, pans, sponges, dish towels, etc. I rarely eat out, and usually only because I am traveling. I have begun taking my own food to peoples homes for dinners etc. The only thing I haven't done, until now, is to eliminated oats, which I eat fairly regularly, and are known to sometimes be a trigger. And I have to say, in my defense, that it took me a very long time to suspect gluten because my only original symtom was rash/dermatitis herpetiformis. So I didn't associate the nausea/headache/fatique with gluten for a long time. Nor did any one of the many doctors I saw suspect it. I finally had a couple of dermatitis herpetiformis spots (and severe migraine) when traveling and probably eating cross contaminated food. I've never been on one of these sights but I am desperate. I'm praying it's as simple as eliminating oats. But I am angry that I was given this drug that I truly believe set this off to begin with. Anyone?

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Just switching to gluten free diet will answer your question without involving anyone else.  Your sister was diagnosed, that puts you at 40% risk of having it also as a first degree relative.  If you improve on a trial gluten free diet, you either have Celiac Disease (autoimmune) or Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (not autoimmune).  In any case it is important to address nutritional deficiencies like vitamin D.  Gluten free processed foods are not required to fortify.  The reason gluten foods are fortified is our western diet is deficient in them to the point where the government had to step in and require fortification.   Once you start GFD you'll realize it was the gluten you were afraid of all along, but nobody told you.
