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........

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

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! ;)

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By trents · Posted

      I assume that you already know that genetic testing for celiac disease cannot be used to confirm a celiac diagnosis. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. It can be used to rule out celiac disease with a high degree of confidence, however, in the case where the genetic testing is negative for the genes. Until and unless you are actually diagnosed with celiac disease I would not raise this as an issue with family. However, if you are diagnosed with celiac disease through blood antibody testing and/or endoscopy with positive biopsy I would suggest you encourage first degree relatives to also purse testing because there is a significant chance (somewhere betwee 10% and almost 50%, depending on which studies you reference) that they will also have or will develop active celiac disease. Often, there are symptoms are absent or very minor until damage to the small bowel lining or other body systems becomes significant so be prepared that they may blow you off. We call this "silent celiac disease".

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      If you were off gluten for two months that would have been long enough to invalidate the celiac blood antibody testing. Many people make the same mistake. They experiment with the gluten free diet before seeking formal testing. Once you remove gluten from the diet the antibodies stop being produced and those that are already in circulation begin to be removed and often drop below detectable levels. To pursue valid testing for celiac disease you would need to resume gluten consumption equivalent to the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread daily for at least two weeks, preferably longer. These are the most recent guidelines for the "gluten challenge". Without formal testing there is no way to distinguish between celiac disease and gluten sensitivity since their symptoms overlap. However, celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the small bowel lining, not true of gluten sensitivity. There is no test available for gluten sensitivity so celiac disease must first be ruled out. By the way, elevated liver enzymes was what led to my celiac diagnosis almost 25 years ago.

      Then it does not seem to me that a gluten-related disorder is at the heart of your problems, unless that is, you have refractory celiac disease. But you did not answer my question about how long you had been eating gluten free before you had the blood antibody test for celiac disease done.
