OKay, I have to jump in here as y'all are taking about mojos.

Anyone remember Richard Pryor, in his stand-up, would talk about Miss Rudolph putting a mojo on his a$$?

Can anyone remember what that mojo made him do? :blink: Prize for the winner: a turkey dinner.

Don't remember about Richard Pryor and his mojo whammy....

I'll approach any and all mojos with great caution, but, alas, I have an intense need to check things out, you know, like going into a pitch black room after hearing a noise from there..... :P

I think your mojos have all returned and you have to much brain fog to realize it!!!! You are too funny to have missing mojos!!!

Patti, I grew, too, but not to where I was before kids ... :( Used to be a solid C, now I barely fill out a B. If I had any fat on my stomach, I'd have it transferred ... :lol: I've used masking tape, but duct tape?? Ouch! And what fills out the bottom part that you've taped up?

This just requires more duct tape, and a little more engineering. It might be a bit painful to remove :( (imagining a duct tape corset :blink::o ) :huh:

I'm glad they advise using medical tape as I can attest- DUCT TAPE HURTS! Did it one year for a Bridesmaid of Frankenstein outfit, came home cosmo'd and had to take it off. Owwwwww-chhhh! At least I was a little number than usual! :P:ph34r:

If it involves duct tape, I'm the man for the job. (The mention of boobs, does tend to get my attention :ph34r::o )

You must understand that my father, although he did not invent duct tape, has certainly mastered its use in a wide variety of off kilter applications. He has passed down his wealth of knowledge to me ( I feel like a Jedi knight :P ).("...may the TAPE be with you!" "...Richard use the TAPE!")

I could go on about boobs too, but this is probably not the place :P

That is my little Madeline (sniffley-sick today :( ) and me. We had a bonfire last night after 2nds on dessert :blink:

Maddy got flattened by a year-old Lab "puppy", so I scooped her up. Mary thought we looked cute, and the sky was amazing, so she took the pic.

Have you tried balling the tape up? :blink:

Sorry, I think I might have bumped into my mojo somehwere last night (who'd have thought such a thing would linger at the in-laws? :blink: )

Well it is nice to SEE you! Yes, very cute pic.

Um, your mojo lingered at your in-laws'? that is crazy.....did you see mine there? :blink::lol:

So, I should make the duct tape into a BALL, and then tape it on? yes, yes, I see, that should look lovely and natural. ;):lol:

I don't know what your mojo look like? Can you provide some detail? Any identifying marks? Tattoos? Horrible disfiguring papercut scars? Duct tape rash :o .

I never said it would look natural, only enhanced - do supermodels look natural? :huh: Oh, yeah, if you're from planet T&A in the Silicone galaxy :)

You could try MULTIPLE LAYERS of tape if you think that might look more natural. I was going for speed and efficiency (the hallmark of any true duct tape fix :D )

OK Susie- I had a long talk with the BIG GUY (he has a Wife too but I thought as a guy he'd be more understanding about this particular matter) upstairs and you have been approved for a boob job. No duct tape for you but he said keep it to a C. :P

Hmmm, that's the secret to how the stars keep covered ... I did a search using the info you posted for the last link and found it ... you also can use it to act more as a bra, but it doesn't add to them, it just pushes them up. Keeps you from sagging, well, and you can also use it for another reason ... like when it's chilly out. :rolleyes:

Richard -- enjoying this? I'd like to see you explain this conversation to your wife!!! :lol:

No explanation necessary. This info will undoubtedly come in handy at some point, besides, how do you think MacGyver came up with all that stuff? He obviously eavesdropped on women for most of his adult life and stored it all away for headier times... :)

Besides boobs are one of my favorite subjects - my wife knows this :P I could pop some popcorn and be here for a looooooooooooong time :D (to lend technical assistance of course :huh: )

Tee hee! You are all saying boobs. Boobs. Boobies!

Alas, the only thing I've ever tried was the duct tape, but it worked pretty well. I needed them smushed together for cleavage. :P I wrapped the stuff all the way around my back. It was the strongest bra I've ever worn! Tthat's for sure. My boobs weren't going anywhere. :P

Also, uhm, does not make for romantic removal in event of romantic interlude! B):unsure:

      Bob red mill gluten free oats

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this...

      Thank you for the clarification and for taking the time to explain the terminology so clearly. I really appreciate your insight, especially the distinction between celiac disease and NCGS and how anemia can point more toward celiac. This was very helpful for me.

      Hi, My 7 year daughter has complained of this in the past, which I thought were part of her glutening symptom, but more recently I have come to figure out it's part of her histamine overload symptom. This one symptom was part of her broader profile, which included irritability, extreme hunger, confusion, post-nasal drip. You might want to look up "histamine...

While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/

      @SamAlvi, It's common with anemia to have a lower tTg IgA antibodies than DGP IgG ones, but your high DGP IgG scores still point to Celiac disease.   Since a gluten challenge would pose further health damage, you may want to ask for a DNA test to see if you have any of the commonly known genes for Celiac disease.  Though having the genes for Celiac is not diagnostic in and of itself, taken with the antibody tests, the anemia and your reaction to gluten, it may be a confirmation you have Celiac disease.   Do discuss Gastrointestinal Beriberi with your doctors.  In Celiac disease, Gastrointestinal Beriberi is frequently overlooked by doctors.  The digestive system can be affected by localized Thiamine deficiency which causes symptoms consistent with yours.  Correction of nutritional deficiencies quickly is beneficial.  Benfotiamine, a form of thiamine, helps improve intestinal health.  All eight B vitamins, including Thiamine (Benfotiamine), should be supplemented because they all work together.   The B vitamins are needed in addition to iron to correct anemia.   Hope this helps!  Keep us posted on your progress!

      High TTG-IgG and Normal TTG-IgA

      By trents · Posted

      Currently, there are no tests for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out and we do have testing for celiac disease. There are two primary test modalities for diagnosing celiac disease. One involves checking for antibodies in the blood. For the person with celiac disease, when gluten is ingested, it produces an autoimmune response in the lining of the small bowel which generates specific kinds of antibodies. Some people are IGA deficient and such that the IGA antibody tests done for celiac disease will have skewed results and cannot be trusted. In that case, there are IGG tests that can be ordered though, they aren't quite as specific for celiac disease as the IGA tests. But the possibility of IGA deficiency is why a "total IGA" test should always be ordered along with the TTG-IGA. The other modality is an endoscopy (scoping of the upper GI track) with a biopsy of the small bowel lining. The aforementioned autoimmune response produces inflammation in the small bowel lining which, over time, damages the structure of the lining. The biopsy is sent to a lab and microscopically analyzed for signs of this damage. If the damage is severe enough, it can often be spotted during the scoping itself. The endoscopy/biopsy is used as confirmation when the antibody results are positive, since there is a small chance that elevated antibody test scores can be caused by things other than celiac disease, particularly when the antibody test numbers are not particularly high. If the antibody test numbers are 10x normal or higher, physicians will sometimes declare an official diagnosis of celiac disease without an endoscopy/biopsy, particularly in the U.K. Some practitioners use stool tests to detect celiac disease but this modality is not widely recognized in the medical community as valid. Both celiac testing modalities outlined above require that you have been consuming generous amounts of gluten for weeks/months ahead of time. Many people make the mistake of experimenting with the gluten free diet or even reducing their gluten intake prior to testing. By doing so, they invalidate the testing because antibodies stop being produced, disappear from the blood and the lining of the small bowel begins to heal. So, then they are stuck in no man's land, wondering if they have celiac disease or NCGS. To resume gluten consumption, i.e., to undertake a "gluten challenge" is out of the question because their reaction to gluten is so strong that it would endanger their health. The lining of the small bowel is the place where all of the nutrition in the food we consume is absorbed. This lining is made up of billions of microscopically tiny fingerlike projections that create a tremendous nutrient absorption surface area. The inflammation caused by celiac disease wears down these fingers and greatly reduces the surface area needed for nutrient absorption. Thus, people with celiac disease often develop iron deficiency anemia and a host of other vitamin and mineral deficiencies. It is likely that many more people who have issues with gluten suffer from NCGS than from celiac disease. We actually know much more about the mechanism of celiac disease than we do about NCGS but some experts believe NCGS can transition into celiac disease.
