How are you today?

A little better today. Hubby got home early, and I slept from like 4:30 till midnight. Then got up with Ez, who is throwing up mucous again. :( Gonna take him back to the doc again today. Then I went back to sleep at about 3, and got a couple more hours before having to get Luke ready for school. So all that sleep helped!

Is Scott Irish?

Patti - I agree with the George/Izzy scenario - perhaps the writer's listened to public opinion and decided it was best to keep them as friends!

I actually think the Celiac-green is kind of spiffy, but I am also having trouble with the change. Things aren't where I expect them to be, and it makes my eyes cross!

Speaking of Celiac-green, we reeeeally need to band together and organize something in the way of Celiac awareness. You know, all those basics that all the OTHER diseases have. Little rubber bracelets, car magnets in the shape of a ribbon, bumper stickers, ribbons, t-shirts, all that stuff.

In fact, we should get Scott to make a new forum for Activism, too.

Our thread is hopping this morning, I logged in at 8- then I gabbed with my coworkers since we all get in at 8, we went downstairs for dirnks and water, it is now 8:30 and I missed quite a few posts. Wow!

Patti- how are the closets today?

Yep--sleep sure helps! Glad you got some shut-eye last night :D

Poor Ez :( Good luck at the doc today.

They're coming to install everything on Dec 3rd. I think it's really gonna be nice--nothing fancy--just lots of shelving and hanging ability.

Julie knew about the greenness because Julie was on last night when the color change took place! And form that point on, things would never be the same.......

Julie does not like change either :(

It was so pretty driving to work yesterday. All the leaves were falling and I live in a country-like setting so it was so pretty.

Good Morning all. The dealie in my avatar is how to do an array (look at all the genes you are using all on one piece of glass). I've been so busy planning and executing a bunch of experiments that it didn't hit me until yesterday that I have to do 700 of those.

700

It's inconceivable at the moment.

My friend went to Kenya to work in an HIV lab. She'll be there for two years at least and if they like it they'll stay longer. What a fabulous experience for the kids. As one of them said "Dad, we ARE the Discovery channel!"

My brain is unbelievably toasted. The lab had a gluten free bday celebration for me yesterday and I ate more dairy and grains and whatever than I have in a very long time. No sleep. Entire body feels swollen. And I have to prepare an intelligent report for someone. Thank heavens there's no math today.

Or quinoa stuffing.

Where is that danged yeti when I need him?

Ah,....he's over at mine....sharing slow cooker tips and recipes (hubby bought one half price - what a coup!)

We (hubby, me, yeti) are just going through the info booklet now.

Good luck with the 700 gene thingy..wotsits :blink:

Bah to the 'new look' forum!!

Av captions don't even come up on the same SCREEN as the av now for me!!

Speaking of Celiac-green, we reeeeally need to band together and organize something in the way of Celiac awareness. You know, all those basics that all the OTHER diseases have. Little rubber bracelets, car magnets in the shape of a ribbon, bumper stickers, ribbons, t-shirts, all that stuff.

Awesome idea!!

But I have too little faith in being able to edumacate the public when MDs are still so clueless.

This one, near honeymoon-land btw, seems to think it's only a "disorder of malabsorption".

<tom's quite sure his problems went a tad beyond that>

"Dad, we ARE the Discovery channel!"

:lol::) Isn't it impossible to picture this and NOT smile and/or chuckle?? :)

Man, do I hate this new look. Difficult to decipher when one person's post ends and the next guy's begins...our av captions are no longer under the av...

Scott, why did ye do this? He's probably Scottish.....I would prefer the Adams tartan than this! :blink:

I still think it was our constant green subject matter... :lol:

I said I wanted a GREEN EMOTICON GUY . . . not everything green but an emoticon guy!!!

Don't like the layout - captions NEED to be under the av. The print seems to be less black . . . is that a figment of my imagination? Is that just because of all the green background? ('Cause my eyes do look blue-er when I'm wearing blue.)

Not a decent vegetable or fruit in the house - must go do some produce shopping - and it won't be green!!

      Oral thrush question

      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...

      Oral thrush question

      Hi @JulieRe. I just found your post. It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida. I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment. In the meantime, I have been working with a functional...

      Advice while waiting for testing

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct r...

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.

      Oral thrush question

      By JulieRe · Posted

      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.

It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct relief for the aches. For the digestive misery, stick to simple, easy-to-digest foods (like plain rice, bananas, and bone broth) and drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay hydrated. It feels like the longest month ever, but you are doing the right thing to get a clear diagnosis, which can be crucial for your long-term health and getting the proper care. Hang in there; you can get through this! This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:
