Hi all

I'm not back. I'm Bulgaria at the black sea coast. It's just still too hot to sleep and the hostel has free internet. I'll be back in about a week and a half. I'm just doing a quick catchup on the news.

Yay a new post!!!

And LOL I was just popping in to post to YOU nikki, that you'd be proud - I just used "sodding" in another thread. :P

Ahhhh the dreaded Algernon Effect.

I've been meaning to post about it in OMG but what I wrote got so off-track & extremely lengthy I didn't want to post it.

Short version is that it refers to the book "Flowers for Algernon" and the resulting movie "Charly".

[Edited for seriousness - long version @OMG thread]

Ahhhh the dreaded Algernon Effect.

YEAH! New posts of silliness!!!!!!! Bout time.

Nikki- Love the new pic! handsome couple indeed!

Tom- Algernon effect :( It's tough! I think there's actually a medical term for it

OK- must keep laughing so on with the jokes- courtesy of Uncle ray:

Never leave your nuts alone

A doctor at an insane asylum decided to take his patients

to a baseball game.

For weeks in advance, he coached his patients to respond to his commands.

When the day of the game arrived. Everything went quite well.

As the National Anthem started, the doctor yelled,

"Up Nuts", and the patients complied by standing up.

After the anthem, he yelled, "Down Nuts", and they all sat back down in their seats.

After a home run was hit, the doctor yelled, "Cheer Nuts". They all broke out into applause and cheered.

When the umpire made a particularly bad call against the star of the home team,

the Doctor yelled, "Booooo Nuts" and they all started booing and cat calling.

Comfortable with their response, the doctor decided to go get a beer and a hot dog,

leaving his assistant in charge.

When he returned, there was a riot in progress. Finding his tizzied assistant,

the doctor asked, "What in the world happened?"

The assistant replied,

"Well everything was going just fine until this guy walked by and yelled,

"PEANUTS!"

My dad just sent me this:

An elderly couple was attending church services. About halfway through she leans over and says to her husband,

"I just let out a silent fart. What do you think I should do?"

He replies "Put a new battery in your hearing aid."

      Son's legs shaking

      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...

      Son's legs shaking

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin. He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her...

      Bob red mill gluten free oats

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified...

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you...

      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 intolerance". I wish I had known of this at the time of her diagnosis, life would have been much easier.  I hope you are able to figure out.

We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior?

The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.
