I personally am a peanut.

Just don't be a chickpea. I hate those things.

I don't think chickpeas are nuts ... for that matter, neither are peanuts! :lol:

Yeah, it will be scary!

My brain has not returned .... parts of it have, but the rest is still gone. But I've been on Mino for a couple weeks now, so maybe soon. :)

Janet, WHAT in the world is your daughter doing in your avatar? It looks very industrious! She looks sooo much like you.

Why, she's measuring (fake) dinosaur bones, of course. If you could see the picture full size, you might be able to read the sign that says "dinosaur research". The paleontologist caption was suppose to be a hint. Not too much longer and you'll be in the 501 club. Here's a suggestion to boost your numbers, you wait for Tom to post (preferably on the OMG thread) and then you reply with a "hmmm, that's interesting".

You know, I did see the caption, and thought, Cool. Then I looked at the picture, and it looks like she's woodworking with a lathe or something. Me, peering at computer screen----> :blink:

I think I am here to stay. God help us all (especially me :o ).

Ahhh, Peter!! I hope you can handle it! We females on this thread are a fearsome lot. The guys seem to be able to handle it for only short periods of time. Then they must retreat to catch their breath and gather their wits! Richard has been missing in action for several days now. Tom's been working on gathering his wits but apparently, he has packed them in several different boxes for his move and failed to label them appropriately!

Oh . . . by the way . . . no need to tell Scott anything. We're trying to keep a low profile here. On the other hand, if you do talk to Scott, ask him how come he hasn't answered my Green Guy emoticon thread.

I guess Scott thinks there are enough moderators participating in this thread that he doesn't have to check up on us!

Do you think he reads it anonymously?

Yeah, I still want that green guy. We totally NEED that emoticon. It's necessary for our expressive therapy.

Maybe he is actually participating!! Maybe he has a fake/second member ID so that he can participate in some of the threads!! Maybe Sarah isn't really Sarah . . . hmmm? :o Maybe Emily is Scott - she would have gotten some advice from her dad on how to play a different character - no wait, that's not right. If Emily is Scott, then Emily's dad wouldn't be giving Scott advice!! I'VE GOT IT! Emily isn't Scott! Scott is Emily! Emily is the board administrator! Emily, why won't you give us a green guy emoticon?!!

So many quotations have stayed with me over the years, and it's impossible to pick a favorite. The wittiest, I think, was by (who else?) my hero, Winston Churchill:

Ending a sentence with a preposition is something up with which I will not put.

:

I love Churchill so much..........have pages of his quotes.......and the most charming books of his paintings......and several biographies. Wonder if I"ll finish one of them, ever?

You are all absolutely nuts. I guess that is why I fit in here. LOL. My dry sense of humoUr often gets lost in the written word, so to avoid p*ssing people off I am careful about what I write online.

Who is looking after the Yeti? I found something in my yard today. DNA testing is beyond my means, but I wonder? Should I treat is as something sacred, or just compost it?

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

oh my gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawd!!!!!!!!!! We've got Peter!!!!!!!! he's one of us, why look, he's even using the superfluous "U" properly!!!!!!!!!! and speaking of practicalities, like DNA testing of possible magical scat in his back yard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:lol:

oh this pleases me to no end.....................

Peter, I think you are the only one who has read every word since pg 202! :lol:

:o the HELL you say!!!!!!!!!! :lol:

I actually DO read all the words. remember, I have no life.

:lol: Well, ok- if you want to be all accurate and stuff. :P

TOTALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!! and we need a red-faced devil emoticon.......and - - there was another one we needed - - can't remember........

Likewise . . . I too have read every word and I too have no life . . . here I sit on a Tuesday night, should have gone to bed an hour ago, but I see Susie and Sarah online so I wait to see if they are going to post! :lol: (My stalker instincts have kicked in :ph34r: )

:o OMG - what should we do? Quick - act natural - act like you don't know for God's sake!!!!!!! Drink your absinthe and be quiet..........

I like Ewan but I LOVE Colin (firth).

Naturally - have to

Nicola- You must confirm- is Hugh straight? WHY is he NOT married?

OMGawd Beverly - he's a straight as they come!!!! (Ooops)

He's just a comittment phobe

I think he's not married because he's a horn dog. That's a southeastern term. :ph34r: Is it allowed to say horn dog?

Yes - horn dog - THAT'S what I meant :lol:

Who is looking after the Yeti? I found something in my yard today. DNA testing is beyond my means, but I wonder? Should I treat is as something sacred, or just compost it?

Mornin' all....Reporting for duty!

I've been pacing around, unable to get my breakfast down....the true identity of Scott...Hmmm. This is troublesome, as I think of the past weeks and how my dad has seemed...well, different. Trying to...moderate...edit...control things. Correcting me on a medical point, criticising when I emoticize too much...And what's with his sudden need for me to log in with a password before I go into their apartment?! Could it be....

He's done it yet again??

I have no life either .... it's the lack of brain, however, that doesn't allow me to read it all! :D I know, I know, it's not supposed to make sense .... but it gets really confusing sometimes! :blink:

What?!? Act natural?!? Do any of us know how to do that?:huh::lol:

Uh, I think everyone is acting natural .... I think normal would be what we don't know how to do! ;)

I have to agree with Carla, normal is not something I think I can manage :)

      No, I've not been diagnosed as celiac.  Despite Entero Labs being relocated to Switzerland/Greece, I'll be doing another test. After eating wheat products in Greece for 4 weeks, there wasn't any reaction.  However, avoiding it here in the states.   Thanks everyone for your responses.

      Thank you @JulieRe so much for sharing this extra information. I'm so glad to hear you're feeling better and I hope it keeps moving in that direction. I feel I'm having so many lightbulb moments on this forum just interacting with others who have this condition. I also was diagnosed with gastric reflux maybe about 10 years ago. I was prescribed ranitidine for it several years back, which was working to reduce my gastric reflux symptoms but then the FDA took ranitidine off the shelves so I stopped taking it. I had a lot of ups and downs healthwise in and around that time (I suddenly gained 20 pounds, blood pressure went up, depression got worse, and I was diagnosed with OSA). At the time I attributed my change in symptoms to me taking on a new stressful job and didn't think much else about it. They did give me a replacement gastric reflux drug since ranitidine was off the shelves, but when I went on the CPAP for my OSA, the CPAP seemed to correct the gastric reflux problem so I haven't been on any gastric reflux drug treatment for years although I still do have to use a CPAP for my OSA. Anyway that's a long story but just to say… I always feel like I've had a sensitive stomach and had migraines my whole life (which I'm now attributing to having celiac and not knowing it) but I feel my health took a turn for much worse around 2019-2020 (and this decline started before I caught covid for the first time). So I am now wondering based on what you said, if that ranitidine i took could have contributed to the yeast overgrowth, and that the problem has just been worsening ever since. I have distinctly felt that I am dealing with something more than just stress and battling a more fundamental disease process here. I've basically been in and out of different doctor specialties for the past 5 years trying to figure out what's wrong with me. Finally being diagnosed with celiac one year ago, I thought I finally had THE answer but now as I'm still sick, I think it's one of a few answers and that maybe yeast overgrowth is another answer. For me as well, my vitamin deficiencies have persisted even after I went gluten-free (and my TTG antibody levels came down to measurably below the detectable limit on my last blood test). So this issue of not absorbing vitamins well is also something our cases have in common. I'm now working with a nutritionist and taking lots of vitamins and supplements to try and remedy that issue. I hope that you continue to see improvements in working with your naturopath on this. Keep us posted!

      Hello everyone. I am Elena and am 38 years old. I suspect I have a gluten intolerance even if my celiac panel is ok. I have the following symptoms : facial flushing, Red dots not bumps în face, bloating abdominal distension, hair loss, depression anxiety even with meds and even bipolar. Fatigue extreme to the point of not being able to work. All of these after I eat gluten. Could I have non celiac gluten sensitivity? Thanks anyone else with these symptoms?

      Hi Everyone,  I do appreciate your replies to my original post.   Here is where I am now in this journey.  I am currently seeing a Naturopath.  One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD.  My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow.    She has put me on some digestive enzymes.  She also put me on Zinc, Selenium, B 12, as she felt that I was not absorbing my vitamins. I am about 5 weeks into this treatment, and I am feeling better. I did not have any trouble taking the Fluconazole.
