Ah, ok. I use Firefox. Spellcheck generally gets on my nerves. Here's a perfect example- it accepts "specialer," but not "spellcheck."

OMG I use firefox also....it is annoying. underlines in red things that are wrong or suspect......such as CELIAC............... :lol:

oh my gaaaaaaaaawd! sillies I have found a new man for our parade. (where IS our parade?)

So........the news is on......and there's a man that just moved here.......and here's what happened - his skin is BLUE. Actually, seriously, blue-tinged. :blink: So......he was living in Bend, Oregon, but apparently people were too freaked out by his blue skin.....so he's moved (oh, this should go over really well in Madera - ha ha ha ha). He did say that some women like it. So.....the reason his skin is blue is because of this SILVER "tincture" antibiotic concoction he drinks every day. WTH? So......his hair and beard are silver.......but right around his mouth, the hair of the mustache/beard is rather distinctly ORANGE-tinged - sort of gumball orange. And.........his TEETH are also exactly the same coloUr - this gumball orange. Well, blue and orange are complimentary coloUrs.........

the result, my friends, is MOST disquieting. I have got to find and recruit this man. :wacko:

Right after that, I have GOT to get a life.

:lol: :lol:

OMG my pastor friend says he will come over tonight and photograph the dogs and me for a Christmas photo. am pondering this offer. my gawd, maybe they'll be New Year's cards instead............

Bev looks beautiful :D

Oh no....no REAL world for me! It's just that between eating, sleeping, shopping, I have no time! Let's see

Cooking and then eating= 4 hours (cuz it takes me forever to do ANYTHING!)

Sleep= 10 hours

Shopping= 4 hours because I can't find anything!

Wait- 6 hours are lost! OMG- where are they!!!!!!!!!!! :rolleyes::P

Damn time vortex's are all around us - let's be careful folks !! - so very hard to get out of - I myself got sucked into a particulary nasty napping vortex earlier -_-

:lol: Dear gawd ...the wee smells.......Terry's family :blink: ....trade you?? :unsure:

yes....I will trade........wee smells......urine-soaked trees and gifts........MY FAMILY? heinously quiet and boring.............. *yawn* and very little communication.........give me urine-soaked drama any day........ :lol:

OMG - the red spellcheck underline-thingy is so egregiously wrong - - it indicates that HEINOUSLY is an acceptable word

:lol:

COMPLETE MELTDOWN is right. I can't even do it.......muskel relaxants or no - this scenario is just ENTIRELY too stressful and never ONCE in my life have I successfully packed for ANY venture. Then, on each trip, I spend half my time shopping for the right articles of clothing.

BUGGER!!!!!!!! So now, I just never go anywhere. :blink:

AAARRRRGGGHHHH!

Here is a funny for you guys. My office mates and I went out for lunch to celebrate one of coworkers birthdays. I drove and I had 3 other coworkers plus my boss in the car....my boss had me stop at the liquor store so she could go in and buy a few things :)

:blink: I've always thought "heinously" was a real word! "Heinosity" might be a bit of a stretch... but it reads well!!! :lol:

I read once, that when packing for a trip--- Pack what you think you'll need. Then remove half of it and take twice as much money!

BTW..... in case anyone is interested in a TMI update-- My gluten retribution has now entered a new phase: explosive, completely liquid, acid-poops. The fun never ends around here!

And I am uber-irritated with my best friend. We have been best friends since we were 12 years old, and the girl thinks "this gluten thing" is all in my head. WTH! For the past several years, she's been saying, "You and the kids are sick a lot, you need to figure out what's up." Well I did, and now I'm jumping on "the anti-gluten bandwagon."

How come I never heard of this wild trend until I discovered what was making us sick? Now I hear it everywhere- on here, from friends, in articles.

Did you guys know we're all very HIP and TRENDY!? That's right, diarrhea and uncontrollable farting is the epitome of cool. B)

I agree! :angry: Then she said that this most recent, most heinous reaction is just because I haven't had gluten in awhile. If I start eating it a lot again, it won't make me puke anymore. :blink: And this is an intelligent, generally caring person, who I basically grew up with. It's appalling!

OMG- I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's the Celiac!!!!!! :lol: All Celiacs are fab dancers!!!

Yup, sigh. Well it got me to swear off of Poking the Owie forever, so I suppose it's all right in the end.

Try clicking the Reload button. It takes a while to load.

I just went and played it again, and noticed that I'm the elf that is consistently running BEHIND everyone else! :lol:The kids just made me play it five times in a row.

I am sitting here thinking of braving the crowd at Tarjey tonight to get a picture frame. Can I interest anyone in the trip?

So Sorry to hear this Sarah!! So far, I haven't been hit with the "taking it to far" or "all in your head", at least not to my face. They may be saying it behind my back <_<

In my own defense, I didn't know whose head was going where. And so that the rest of you don't get jealous because you didn't get picked to dance, I had to pick the people who have the biggest heads (in their pics so that it wouldn't get all fuzzy when I scaled it).

I am sitting here thinking of braving the crowd at Tarjey tonight to get a picture frame. Can I interest anyone in the trip?

I was thinkin' about headin' that way myself. What time do you want to meet?

Well I am out of here in 15 minutes. What time works for you :)

You've been lucky so far! My friends and family are the type that picks and teases constantly, and that's ok. But I know her husband mocks my "gluten-free endeavors" ceaselessly, and I think it's sunk into her subconscious. Or maybe not, maybe it's all her. In any case, I think it's an EGREGIOUS breach of best friend behavior guidelines! :angry:

Go ahead . . . you can say it . . . it'll make you feel better

:angry:PoopyCow!!!! :angry:

Better?

OK, so now I have to ask . . . EGREGIOUS? :o:lol: why that's a Susie word!!! She's rubbing off on you!! . . . Not sure if that's good or bad :unsure:

OMG!!! I was just out in the kitchen making dinner (sort of) and stewing over the situation, and I was thinking over and over in my head... Poopy Cow.... Poopy Cow! .... POOPY COW!

:lol: I love that word, and have just been WAITING for an excuse to use it!!! I think this fits the bill. B)

Actually....... The mental chant was more like- Poopy cow... poopy cow.... egregious breach... poopy cow.... utterly egregious... Etc. And my face probably looked a lot like this--- > <_<

      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.  
    • Rejoicephd
      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?
    • JulieRe
      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.
