Now there is a sound I have not heard in a while, and one which I do NOT miss...

And it's not just a loud cry. It's a piercing scream.

You know when you go to a summer Arts&Crafts festival and a leatherworker is finishing a belt, making the holes for some future belt-owner's girth adjustment?

Well lay my head down and let 'im mallet the awl into my auditory canal and I may be less uncomfortable than being near this little fella's screech. :o

Boy, you guys just take whatever I've got...and sometimes even find it amusing!

:lol: now THERE's an undersell!

Em!! You're a garrr-rone-TEED daily LOL to ME!!!!

Man, I've had a number of in-laws at this time of year just stare at me and quietly leave rooms when I go on as I tend to here.

:lol:

You are so creative (sorry...Kree-AY-tiv), Tom...Who else would have thought of that isolated, perfect situation as a metaphor for your ear discomfort? I know exactly this leatherworking man. Can picture him...long hair, large girth, leather stetson-type hat, couple of interesting tattoos, assessing his customer's waistline while rubbing his bearded chin, awl at the ready... :lol::lol:

Okay, time to go watch my amazing goalie/daughter make some outstanding gloved saves in her game. Gotta sit with MIL (yep, she's arrived...) ;)<_<

      Gluten-Free Diet Linked to Reduced Inflammation and Improved Outcomes in Multiple Sclerosis (+Video)

      I worried at one point on my journey whether I had MS, having many of the symptoms myself. However, my symptoms improved dramatically with high dose thiamine hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and Thiamine TTFD. Thiamine deficiency symptoms overlap with MS symptoms, including changes on brain MRIs. Thiamine deficiency affected my eyes (light sensitivity),...

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that y...

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
