Richard, can you swing anything, here?

Sorry, I don't do emoticons. I will, however put Susie's party back up. :)

Why . . . that's a lovely party, Susie.

However, Julie and Carrot Top (and you, of course) are the only ones I can tell for sure who they are . . . Who's the guy with the big thumb and the guy with his pants undone?

<embarassed> This isn't Susan, it's Richard

The guy with the big thumb is the newest presidential candidate - Open Original Shared Link

The shirtless wonder is Matthew McConaughy (per Susan's request). I couldn't find a picture of him where sushi was being served off his abs, so that had to suffice. :huh:

Yes, but it's Susie's party isn't it? :lol::lol:

Actually, I fell into the same trap as some of the others . . . must read names, must read names, pictures mean nothing, pictures mean nothing

Ahhhhh, so it is. No trouble finding a photo of him shirtless, I take it.

Terribly sorry that I didn't recognize Stephen Colbert. I wasn't expecting to see him today.

....hmmmmm...define "work". I did spend a whole hour away from my computer (and you lunatics).

I do manage to squeeze in a few productive moments during my workday. The truth is I work in a college financial aid office, and my workload is intense at times and negligible at others. Right now happens to be a slow period. If you recall you didn't see much of me for about 6 mos. I changed positions and had to do a ton of training to get up to speed for "opening" and the start of classes. Mid-semester is traditionally slow. I'll start to flake out come december. :) That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

(I did do some work related activities today B) )

Ok I sent Susan the avatar, so to avoid further confusion I will change things up and take my leave for the day.

Behave yourselves tonight ;)

Sheesh....He fools more people, I'm telling you...

That shirtless wonder is not Matthew McConnaughy. It's my father. He was portraying M.M. in a skit recently about Hollywood sex symbols. Not a bad makeup department, huh?

That's neat. I think I have really got to know you in this thread in the past few days. I work all day in a hospital, where I do Clinical Trials with Cancer Patients. It has its days. I used to work as a lab tech processing bloodwork in the lab....those were crazy days too.

All this talk of work....I need a REAL job, harrumphFFFFFFFFFF :angry:

I am missing my jewelry deadline. another harrumph. :( At least it was a deadline I imposed on myself (mom doesn't care, it was MY idea for her to wear a fine necklace for an important event today. Boo)

Now going to run the dingos, see if I can find my mojo, or any stragglers from our parade, in the orchard.

BAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Richard, do they look at your search history at work?

I can't imagine what they'll think when they find Chuck Norris, Mathew McConaughy, Care Bears, Gene Simmons, Yeti.........

If you recall you didn't see much of me for about 6 mos

Great to have you back! I disappeared for about 8 months and it's like I never left..........weird how that happens, this is a strange vortex indeed.

So happy to be at your party Susie Q! Are we going to have to fight over who gets Carrot Top? :lol::lol:

Yep, you guessed it.....

That was my dad...again...playing M.M. I know, it's quite incredible. He'd be in wardrobe and makeup for three hours.

      Has anyone had terrible TMJ/ Jaw Pain from undiagnosed Celiac?

      Yes. I have had the tmj condition for 40 years. My only help was strictly following celiac and also eliminating soy. Numerous dental visits and several professionally made bite plates did very little to help with symptoms

      Cristiana makes a good point and it's something I've pointed out at different times on the forum. Not all of our ailments as those with celiac disease are necessarily tied to it. Sometimes we need to look outside the celiac box and remember we are mortal humans just like those without celiac disease.

      Has anyone had terrible TMJ/ Jaw Pain from undiagnosed Celiac?

      Also suffer badly with gluten and TMJD, cutting out gluten has been a game changer, seems to be micro amounts, much less than 20ppm. Anyone else have issues with other food stuffs? Soy (tofu) and/or milk maybe causing TMJD flare-ups, any suggestions or ideas? --- I'm beginning to think it maybe crops that are grown or cured with glyphosphate...

      Hi @Scatterbrain Thank you for your reply. Some of these things could be weaknesses, also triggered by stress, which perhaps have come about as the result of long-term deficiencies which can take a long time to correct. Some could be completely unrelated. If it is of help, I'll tell you some of the things that started in the first year or two...

      Hi @Scatterbrain Thank you for your reply.   Some of these things could be weaknesses, also triggered by stress, which perhaps have come about as the result of long-term deficiencies which can take a long time to correct.   Some could be completely unrelated. If it is of help, I'll tell you some of the things that started in the first year or two, following my diagnosis - I pinned everything on coeliac disease, but it turns out I wasn't always right!  Dizziness, lightheaded - I was eventually diagnosed with cervical dizziness (worth googling, could be your issue too, also if you have neck pain?)  A few months after diagnosis I put my neck out slightly carrying my seven-year-old above my head, and never assigned any relevance to it as the pain at the time was severe but so short-lived that I'd forgotten the connection. Jaw pain - stress. Tinnitus - I think stress, but perhaps exacerbated by iron/vitamin deficiencies. Painful ribs and sacroiliac joints - no idea, bloating made the pain worse. It got really bad but then got better. Irregular heart rate - could be a coincidence but my sister (not a coeliac) and I both developed this temporarily after our second Astra Zeneca covid jabs.   Subsequent Pfizer jabs didn't affect us. Brain fog - a big thing for people with certain autoimmune issues but in my case I think possibly worse when my iron or B12 are low, but I have no proof of this. Insomnia - stress, menopause. So basically, it isn't always gluten.  It might be worth having your vitamins and mineral levels checked, and if you have deficiencies speak to your Dr about how better to address them?

      My only proof

      @NanceK, I do have Hypersensitivity Type Four reaction to Sulfa drugs, a sulfa allergy.  Benfotiamine and other forms of Thiamine do not bother me at all.  There's sulfur in all kinds of Thiamine, yet our bodies must have it as an essential nutrient to make life sustaining enzymes.  The sulfur in thiamine is in a ring which does not trigger sulfa allergy like sulfites in a chain found in pharmaceuticals.  Doctors are not given sufficient education in nutrition (nor chemistry in this case).  I studied Nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology.  I wanted to know what vitamins were doing inside the body.   Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.   Not feeling well after starting Benfotiamine is normal.  It's called the "thiamine paradox" and is equivalent to an engine backfiring if it's not been cranked up for a while.  Mine went away in about three days.  I took a B Complex, magnesium and added molybdenum for a few weeks. It's important to add a B Complex with all eight essential B vitamins. Supplementing just one B vitamin can cause lows in some of the others and result in feeling worse, too.  Celiac Disease causes malabsorption of all the B vitamins, not just thiamine.  You need all eight.  Thiamine forms including Benfotiamine interact with each of the other B vitamins in some way.  It's important to add a magnesium glycinate or chelate supplement as well.  Forms of Thiamine including Benfotiamine need magnesium to make those life sustaining enzymes.  (Don't use magnesium oxide.  It's not absorbed well.  It pulls water into the intestines and is used to relieve constipation.)   Molybdenum is a trace mineral that helps the body utilize forms of Thiamine.   Molybdenum supplements are available over the counter.  It's not unusual to be low in molybdenum if low in thiamine.   I do hope you will add the necessary supplements and try Benfotiamine again.
