GAH!!! It was a cartoon!! sorry - can't watch it - - - :ph34r:hate cartoons... but for you, our fearless teenager in the middle of adult juvenile WACKINESS, I will try.

You don't have too, but it's HILARIOUS. And i'm really not fearless. I'm afraid of cockaroaches and getting caught reading in the middle of school. And... uh... apologizing. It's really freaky, but i'm afraid of apologizing face-to-face to ANYONE. No, really. I've been trying to apoligize to this guy for a year now. :embarrased: I've known him since sixth grade...

hmmmmm......afraid of apologizing. Are you afraid, perhaps, it will make you appear weak? because....it won't. :) I think one of the greatest human traits is to admit wrong.....and it is a courageous thing to do, not weak....er, in case that's what you're thinking. :huh:

here's a silly!

A sweet grandmother telephoned St Joseph Hospital. She timidly asked,"Is

It possible to speak to someone who can tell me how a patient is doing?"

The operator said "I'll be glad to help, dear. What's the name and

Room number?"

The grandmother in her weak tremulous voice said, "Norma Findlay, Room

302."

The Operator replied, "Let me place you on hold while I check with her

Nurse." After a few minutes the Operator returned to the phone, "Oh, good

News. Her nurse has told me that Norma is doing very well. Her blood

Pressure is fine; her blood work just came back as normal and her

Physician,

Dr. Cohen, has scheduled her to be discharged Tuesday."

The Grandmother said, "Thank you. That's wonderful! I was so worried!

God bless you for the good news."

The operator replied, "You're more than welcome. Is Norma your daughter?"

The Grandmother said, "No, I'm Norma Findlay in 302. No one tells me poop."

Okay...Judy needs a part in our parade, guys. Judy, can you twirl your cane like a baton? We've got this Yeti, see, and...then, Chuck Norris is with Danny, Wegman's CEO, in our Care Bears Float, and some retrofitted machine-guns, and Charlton Heston T-bagging MJ......

So, a cane-twirler is obviously needed. Unless that would be a bit silly. We certainly wouldn't want that.

Well, I would be a baton twirler if I wasn't so buzy shooting carebears and Michael Jackson in a chicken suit on a dunking platform with chocolates and EVIL MARSHMELLOWS OF DOOM. (And I might not be on much in the next... *looks at calander* three or four days because I've got a Speech and debate tournament on saturday and have two debate cases to write. And a Humorous Interp. And boards to work on for my Celiac speech. All in three days! *panic*

NO, NO, NO Emily . . . the flowcharts were for the . . . um . . err . . . <whisper> the NFL T-baggin' episode. :o

That should reeeaaaalllly not be in a speech on celiac.

Yeppers! It's kinda hard for me but we need to get the word out! I have to put together boards. (I thought flowsheets were for debate... :huh:) I have most of the pictures but...yeah. I could post it up here (the speech) but I really REALLY don't want it to get plagerized. (My first practice tournament is in Miami (far away from where i live. on the other side of the state!) and then naples... Then Georgia... Then Somewhere on the west coast! (HA! If i make it as far as Nationals.)

You guys have been SO busy today! Gosh, it's bad when it's easier to keep up with the OMG thread! This reminds me of the summer of 2006!

Need to clarify, is this Naples Italy, or Naples, Florida (must know how excited I should be )

Naples, Florida, but as far as how excited ... very! It's a beach and that's about all I'm up to ... and did I say it was a business trip? That means fancy hotel, fancy dinners, :) Adam "works" during the day, I hang out at the pool and spa!

Here's the hotel Open Original Shared Link .... and it's in just a few weeks!

CarlaB Enthusiast

Hey, Light, so you live in Florida? My dad lives in St. Petersburg! As you have read already, I'll be in Naples next month.

Daughter-of-TheLight Apprentice

Yup! I am floridian through and through. XD Which is why I'm crazy. And why I'm in a quince. And why I have a huge collection of seashells.

Janet! NFL deltoid-squish should absolutely be highlighted in a speech on celiac. This disease can have an undeniable connection to infertility. The hit that I have been picturing between these two athletes..well, need I say more? Light could show the chart illustrating the jarring hit from Monday Night Football with the following dialogue: "Untreated celiac disease can result in fertility problems, much like this defensive move, known in certain circles as T-bagging". You'll need a pointer.

My family has been in St. Pete for a long time .... I have a picture of my great-grandmother in a July 4th parade dated 1904! Funny thing, all the men were wearing BLACK suits and HATS ... in JULY, in FLORIDA!!! :o So, Mom was born and raised there, Dad's family moved there when he was 15. They moved up north when they got married and I was born in Ohio, but I've spent a LOT of time down there .... I even lived there a few years in the ealy 90's ... I was baptized in St. Pete ... so I'm almost a Floridian. :)

Oh, well . . . since you put it like that. I can see how that all fits in.

OH, OH . . . I've BEEN to Florida!!!

      This article does not address migraines at all.  Yes, red wine and sulfites are often mentioned in connection with migraine triggers. With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably. So, I think most of my migraines are tied to fluctuations vascular tension and blood flow to the brain. That's why the sumatriptan works so well. It is a vaso constrictor.

      Excessive dietary tyrosine can cause problems.  Everything in moderation.   Sulfites can also trigger migraines. Sulfites are found in fermented, pickled and aged foods, like cheese.  Sulfites cause a high histamine release.  High histamine levels are found in migraine.  Following a low histamine diet like the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet, helps immensely.    Sulfites and other migraine trigger foods can cause changes in the gut microbiome.  These bad bacteria can increase the incidence of migraines, increasing histamine and inflammation leading to increased gut permeability (leaky gut), SIBO, and higher systemic inflammation.   A Ketogenic diet can reduce the incidence of migraine.  A Paleo diet like the AIP diet, that restricts carbohydrates (like from starchy vegetables) becomes a ketogenic diet.  This diet also changes the microbiome, eliminating the bad bacteria and SIBO that cause an increase in histamine, inflammation and migraine.  Fewer bad bacteria reduces inflammation, lowers migraine frequency, and improves leaky gut. Since I started following the low histamine ketogenic AIP paleo diet, I rarely get migraine.  Yes, I do eat carbs occasionally now, rice or potato, but still no migraines.  Feed your body right, feed your intestinal bacteria right, you'll feel better.  Good intestinal bacteria actually make your mental health better, too.  I had to decide to change my diet drastically in order to feel better all the time, not just to satisfy my taste buds.  I chose to eat so I would feel better all the time.  I do like dark chocolate (a migraine trigger), but now I can indulge occasionally without a migraine after.   Microbiota alterations are related to migraine food triggers and inflammatory markers in chronic migraine patients with medication overuse headache https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11546420/

      Then we would need to cut out all meat and fish as they are richer sources of tyrosine than nuts and cheese. Something else about certain tyrosine rich foods must be the actual culprit.

      I agree that KAN-101 looks promising, and hope the fast track is approved. From our article below: "KAN-101 shows promise as an immune tolerance therapy aiming to retrain the immune system, potentially allowing safe gluten exposure in the future, but more clinical data is needed to confirm long-term effects."

      Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self. What you're describing sounds less like a purely psychological body dysmorphia and more like a distinct neurological event, likely triggered by the immense physical stress and inflammation that uncontrolled celiac disease can inflict on the entire body, including the nervous system. It makes complete sense that the specific sensory input—the pressure points of your elbows on your knees—created a temporary, distorted body map in your brain, and the fact that it ceased once you adopted a gluten-free diet is a crucial detail. Your intuition to document this is absolutely right; it's not "crazy" but rather a significant anecdotal data point that underscores the mysterious and far-reaching ways gluten can affect individuals. Your theory about sensory triggers from the feet for others is also a thoughtful insight, and sharing this story could indeed be validating for others who have had similar, unexplainable sensory disturbances, helping them feel less alone in their journey.
