my mom's favoUrite kitty - George - - well, George has quite a sex drive. :huh: He is over six months old, got only half-neutered (one testicle had not descended - sorry folks, it's just biology :lol: ).....so he's still insane with passion for, er, many things :huh: (blankets, the remote control, my mom's arm, the two other cats)....SO - - today we will cross paths as mommy picks up George from his testicle retrieval operation (a smash success, says the vet, adn he even saved it in a jar, so *I* get to see it! :rolleyes: )

OH MY GAWD!!

I had a dog exactly the same!

Humped EVERYTHING - but only had one ball - had to be castrated and have the other retrieved :blink:

That dog was the butt of many,many jokes I can tell you :lol:

:lol::ph34r: I shouldn't laugh but she is just quite an odd old lady dog sometimes :lol:

What is it they say about pets becoming like their owners??.......

Love + hugs for Annie tomorrow :wub::wub:

Susie...give us an update as soon as possible. My eyes well up whenever dog crises happen. I've prayed to St. Roch (there is a saint for dogs? This makes me very happy!)

I must quote Will Rogers:

"If there are no dogs in Heaven, then when I die I wish to go where they've gone".

Hear, hear!

All right...back to silliness!

Oh sillies! :huh:

I am sorry to have injected such seriousness and sadness into the thread...

Please, carry on, I will check in tomorrow and NEED some laughs!!! Surgery in a.m.....then I"ll be home all day typing away.

THANK YOU so much for your kind words, thoughts, and prayers.......

:wub:

We'll be thinking of you and Annie :)

Me too Susie, hope she is ok...

And I must say Oh... mah... gah..... I've got the stinking flu and I want to crawl in a hole and preferably not come out for a week. This is soooo not what I need right now. Not that there's any time where I might say, Hey! This is a wonderful time to get the flu, let's do it!

Anyhoo, ugh my body hurts.

Lots of prayers to St. Roch: the patron saint of dogs and those who love them.

St. Roch, huh . . . If I would have had to guess, I would have thought maybe it was St. Bernard. :)

Quotes from my kids:

Son: "Mom, when I grow up, do I HAVE to leave? I don't think I do".

Me: "Yes, you do! Absolutely!"

Daughter: "Mom, how do you spell OK?"

Sarah - hope you're feeling better soon!!

My son still comes out with some good ones, but since he's now nine they don't happen as often. In his classroom not long ago, the teacher asked any kids that had to go to the bathroom to raise two fingers. Jack immediately piped up, "how will that help?"

Darn210 Enthusiast

Oh Emily, your Gus is a handsome boy . . . and it looks like he knows it!

Here's another one from my son . . . a couple of years ago but a classic:

My son trying to explain Easter to his sister: "Jesus rose from the dead, that kind of makes him a Zombie."

Anyhoo, ugh my body hurts.

Sarah - yuck! Feel better soon! :)

Excellent song. Amanda - you must wear a MASK every day and NOT get sick!! I am believing that you won't. :)

OMG you guys - - I had a dream last night, it was Patti's house. Busloads came to tour the house - it was HUGE - like six stories - and we looked up at it, looming overhead from the sidewalk, there were all kinds of crazy gargoyles and those castle turrets - really quite spectacular, accents of black and copper and marble......

So.....dozens of us traipsed through the house - got to this fabulous kitchen room (w/ black and white tiled floor) and there was this shiny silver door on top of a counter top. Patti, the loveliest hostess, opened this magical door for us, and what looked like dry ice wafted out gently...and there was a sunken in countertop refrigerator....inside....OMG - - endless rows of the most magical, gluten-free treats - - eclairs, tons and tons of eclairs, cream puffs, all manner of individually-sized cream-filled cakes.....I was eating them madly - - everyone else continued to tour the house, come and go, but I stayed and ate things... :huh: Patti graciously refilled it and I ate some more.....told everyone "come look at this thing, you guys!!!!"

:lol: Gee, do you think I miss my deserts much???

:lol: I know - I have pretty crazy (and very detailed) dreams......forgot to mention that the kitchen looked like an old fashioned ice cream parlour - but that was just the "snacking kitchen" - not the real one :lol:

RICHARD - - post something again so we can see the Super Weasel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:P

TriticusToxicum Explorer
but even more worrisome, is one of the tumours "felt funny" to the vet. What is with my dogs and tumours?

There is a perfectly logical explanation for this. Annie has obviously gotten ahold of your mojo. :o Is this "tumor" located anywhere near her "funny bone"? My guess is yes it is. The vet is correct when he says it feels "funny". By gosh it is funny!

Just make sure he doesn't toss it, or worse yet, send it ou to be resectioned or something :o (not good for mojo :blink: ).

I have a good feeling that you and Super Weasel will come throught this with "flying" coloUrs. ;)

The peanut blossoms are on the way, but I fear the fires may melt the Kisses or the mailman...but they are better melty(Kisses, not mailman :huh: )

Good luck we're pulling for you!

but that was just the "snacking kitchen" - not the real one :lol:

I tell ya--I wish I really did have a snacking kitchen :D

With a magic refrigerator ;):lol:

:lol: I feel that that is a very dangerous addition to one's home.....calorie-wise :P

Allo is SO beautiful!! :)

RICHARD - - my mojo - is it....could it be???? Good Lord, I"ll bring it home in a jar and wear it in an amulet 'round my neck....

and how do you know my mailman's kisses aren't melty???? ;)

I'm still got a bit of Bowel Growl, but i slept better last night (wifey too). I'll be close to "normal" tomorrow (normal is not an adjective normally associated with this loon). I don't ever hope to be normal..."regular" is all i can hope for :P

      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. 
    • knitty kitty
      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.
