May I suggest scientist? There are benefits:

No one expects you to dress well, or even sensibly.

You are forgiven if your sentence inadvertently consists of multisyllabic, incomprehensible drabble.

People understand the 'lost' look you get sometimes and do your yardwork for you (really).

You can offer up fully functional hypotheses about gluten and the effect it has on multiple organ systems and have someone respond with: no, thats not what I saw on this other web site...

and best of all - if people think badly of you, you are far to absorbed in some way out theory to even notice. As far as I know, everyone thinks I'm fabulous!

How's Annie tonight?

Lucky and I are curled up on my bed, John finally fell asleep, after days of nonstop coughing fits and not being able to lay down for fear he would stop breathing. Now it is raining hard and thundering. Nice sleeping weather.

:rolleyes: oh how cozy for the newlyweds!!!!! Glad John is feeling better....it'll be over soon, and we'll all be ready for the Macy's parade.

Thank you for asking, Annie is doing better. Not limping as she walks around the house.......but we will see what tomorrow brings. We don't like being like this. :(

Good to hear Annie is doing better :)

Today would be the perfect day for curling up and watching movies on the couch. It is rainy and windy and yucky outside. Perfect fall day.

Yes, Our Silly Yak Thread... the vortex-like pull of addiction has its tendrils around us all, I fear...sometimes I actually find myself shaking a little if I haven't been on here for a few hours. My husband claims I toss and turn at night, mumbling things like, "Are

they on right now?....what are they discussing?....is it about me?....is it funny?" ...

Well, anyways, we're better than absinthe (in terms of addiction, that is...)! :D

Amanda--hope John has a better day today and can get some rest--that coughing is horrible, after my cold started to go away last week, I had several days of the worst cough. I kept gagging myself and was so sore from the whole thing. :angry:

Will check in later--the closet organizing lady will be here any minute. I told my husband (the packrat) that since he has so many clothes, this is a necessity :P I mean, I'm no slouch when it comes to clothes (and purses :wub: ), but he has twice as much stuff in there as I do. :blink:

:lol: It's a company that comes out and plans the best use of the space you have and installs hanging bars, shelving and stuff. Our closet is good sized--but there is so much wasted space. She's been in there (with the door closed) for 45 minutes now :unsure: )

So, let me get this straight..on good days carla is too busy for us and on bad days she's too brain dead for us????? Carla- I sense an insult in here somewhere but I'm herxing so I could NEVER figure it out at this point :P

PS Had SERIOUS Food Gasm at Risoterria last week. Was almost asked to leave- kind of like that scene in When Harry Met sally.

jerseyangel Proficient

Bev--did you say "tartaholic" or "fartaholic"? :P Either one could apply, if you know what I mean....

I think I should bring the closet lady a sandwich or something--what the heck is she still doing in there? :o

      I realized it is actually important to get an official diagnosis because then insurance can cover bone density testing and other lab work to see if any further damage has been done because of it. Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have 4 kids, and I really want to know. If I really do have it then they may have increased risk. 
    • par18
      Been off this forum for years. Is it that important that you get an official diagnosis of something? It appears like you had a trigger (wheat, gluten, whatever) and removing it has resolved your symptom. I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free condition. I was diagnosed over 20 years ago and have been symptom free only excluding wheat, rye and barley. I tolerate all naturally gluten free whole foods including things like beans which actually helps to form the stools. 
    • trents
      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.
    • SilkieFairy
      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a coincidence, but the brain fog is back and I feel very tired.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/
