Yikes, I was off the board for 10 minutes and came back to see a bunch of messages from "Alfred". I'm sure someone who is "in the know" knows what to do.

Alfred is someone advertising because this scam artist claims he can CURE Celiac disease by envisioning your intestines in his mind. and with in 5 days you'll be able to eat pizza, bread and all the food that makes you sick as a celiac.

It actually makes me mad that some crack pot is doing this.

Thanks Karen! NOW I see the button at the bottom that says, "Report" and now I know what it's for! I grew up in a strange religion that taught about "healing" like this and I feel like going ballistic when I see someone post something like this.

Wasn't he poisoned (didn't work)-shot (survived)-then finally drowned in a river?? :huh:

beaglemania Rookie

I just looked it up again to jog my memorey, he was shot several times and then his body was thrown into the river. The Queen Alexandria was soo convinced by Rasputin that if he was killed the family would lost the throne soon after. Which they did.

Alfred obviously has a vested interest in celiac disease ever since he burned the cakes....

(if anyone doesn't get it its British history)

not to go off subject, but you always throw out something that intrigues me.....tell us about the burned cakes...or at least what year and what were the circumstances and I go and look it up ...

Off subject? I don't think that's possible in this thread.

oh those cakes.....well they deserved to be burnt, they were not gluten-free.

Do you think the poster using the name "Alfred" was a coincidence then?

I actually graduated from Alfred University, in where else - Alfred, NY.

What the folks in Western NY lack in imagination, they more than make up for in die-hard support of their beloved Buffalo Bills...True story - I have personally seen, way to up close and personal, a mullet dyed in team colors, accessorized with red white and blue face, and torso (among other things I'm sure). Somebody needs to wake up Alfred (the Great) and rally the troops!

I would dare say our visitoy of yesterday was no relation to "the Great"...

Remarkably, I think this is the one thread he didn't spam yesterday. I noticed he was on and lurking today, but his spam-anator must be busted :o

I have to ask--what are y'all looking at out the window?

I have to ask--what are y'all looking at out the window?

Back at the end of June we had terrible flooding up here (central upstate NY). My older daughter (the one on the far left) was looking out the window, watching the debris float by on the stream beside our house. She yelled come quick look! We all ran to see what she saw, including my 2 year old, who just so happened to be on the potty at the time. My wife came in late, saw what you see there and decided to preserve it for "posterity" so to speak...

      If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch--thanks for the tip about Dupixent, and I've added it to the article:

      I just want to clarify that what I posted is a category of research summaries we've done over the years, and nearly each one shows that there is definitely a connection to celiac disease and migraine headaches. The latest study said: "the study did indicate some potential causal associations between celiac disease and migraine with or without aura, as well as between migraine without aura and ulcerative colitis...this study did not find evidence of a shared genetic basis..." Anyway, there is definitely a connection, and you can go through more of the articles here if you're interested: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/migraine-headaches-and-celiac-disease/

      Two months ago, I started taking Dupixent for dermatitis herpetiformis and it has completely cleared it up. I can't believe it! I have had a terrible painful, intensely itchy rash for over a year despite going fully gluten-free. See if your doctor will prescribe Dupixent. It can be expensive but I am getting it free. When the dermatitis herpetiformis was bad I could not do anything. I just lay in bed covered in ice packs to ease the pain/itching and using way too Clobetasol. Dapsone is also very good for dermatitis herpetiformis (and it is generic). It helped me and the results were immediate but it gave me severe anemia so the Dupixent is better for me. Not sure if it works for everyone. I cannot help with the cause of your stress but from experience I am sure the severe stress is making the celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis worse. Very difficult for you with having children to care for and you being so sick. Would this man be willing to see a family therapist with you? He may be angry at you or imagine that your illness is a psychosomatic excuse not to take care of him. A therapist might help even if he won't go with you. Also do you have any family that you could move in with (with the kids) for a short time to get away? A break may be good for you both.

      @tiffanygosci, Thiamine deficiency is a thing in pregnancy for "normal" people, so it's exponentially more important for those with celiac disease and malabsorption issues. I studied nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology because I was curious what the vitamins were doing inside the body.  See my blog.  Click on my name to go to my page, scroll to drop down menu "activities" and select blog.   So glad you're motivated to see the dietician!  We're always happy to help with questions.  Keep us posted on your progress!

      Thank you for sharing all of this, Knitty Kitty! I did just want someone to share some commonality with. I did not know This one Deficiency was a thing and that it's common for Celiac Disease. It makes sense since this is a disorder that causes malabsorption. I will have to keep this in mind for my next appointments. You also just spurred me on to make that Dietician appointment. There's a lot of information online but I do need to see a professional. There is too much to juggle on my own with this condition.<3
