Now, as to your other ideas, perhaps you could try composing a reply while naked and I'll see how your name appears at the time. You'll have to let me know when you do it, and what other things you might also be doing simultaneously. :ph34r:

Does posting in my nightshirt count? :unsure:

What you've done to ME????????

What have we done to PETER!!!!??? :o:lol::lol::lol:

Others have already responded, but since you asked me directly, the others are correct. The member whose name is italicized is composing a reply in the current thread.

Hilarious, Peter...All right, I think we should all do a Naked Post. Simultaneously. Perhaps we would warrant placement in the 2008 Guinness Book. ...Or Ripley's Believe it or Not...

We'll have to take a vote: do nightshirts count?

And what does one's name look like when in the act of posting naked? Large, bold caps? Lots of exclamation marks? Or perhaps we'll all just be in parentheses...an aside, an afterthought... :rolleyes::rolleyes::lol:

Judy, there's no stopping the viscious pull of The Vortex...Like quicksand, the more one struggles, the further inside one is sucked.

I think it has you.

...And yay! That means we've got you!

BTW...Went to bed last night, and spent the hour before I drifted off choking back full-blown laughter, thinking about simultaneous naked Sillyville posting. My husband finally said, "What is the matter? Get some water..." :lol::ph34r::lol:

...I'd still like to know what our names would look like...

Welcome back Bev, I hope your appt went well :)

Hi Judy, good to see you participating in the sillies!!

Have you started your gardening yet? Sarah mentioned about getting started a while back.

This gardening is such a mystery to me, secret rituals and such. But I want in on it :lol:

Amanda, glad you are feeling better!

Susie, how are you and Stinker today??

Emily, that's quite the handsome fella in your avatar, is he your BADASS in crime?

:(

oh, sweet friends, I have very sad news.....

My beautiful, noble girl is gone. :( I cannot stop sobbing.....and wonder when the tears will find their end.

I don't know why I am writing....I don't really know what to do wtih myself......I didn't call anyone this morning until after it happened.....and now I am left wondering if I did the right thing, was it the right time???? She was having trouble walking, on her unsteady legs, but was pulling so hard on her leash, as we went in.....and she struggled to breathe.....kept gagging.....it was agonizing.

we had an awful, awful night......groanings of pain as I"ve never heard.....gagging...horrible. :( we almost went at 3 in the morning, but she quit groaning....but in the last couple of weeks she was never able to go into a deep sleep or even lie flat on her side, not once. :(

So......we went this morning, early......Annie was distraught, but is now sleeping at my feet......she was in there w/ us when it happened....I was holding my sweet girl's face as she slipped peacefully off, and Annie was at her side. :(:(:(

I opted against private cremation at the vet's, expensive, but I have changed my mind....my plan was always to scatter her remains over her two favorite spots in the Sierra.....so I feel a bit better.

I need prayers......this is much harder than I thought.........she has been my shadow and brilliant companion for nearly 14 years..........

:(

Strength without insolence

Courage without ferocity

And all the Virtues

Of Man without his vices."

(weak smile) Janet - I read that sentence and even in this wretched grief...I had the slightest glimmerings of a smile - a brief flash.......

Oh Susie . . . I'm so sorry and sad for you. You have my tears and prayers and hugs.

and yes, it sounds as though it was the right time . . . like I said, a couple of days early is better than one day too late and it sounds like she was really starting to struggle.

Love to you and Annie!

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      Tea Bags and Gluten

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      Inconclusive results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

      Medication

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome to the community! Generally, for a gluten challenge before celiac disease blood tests, Tylenol (acetaminophen) is considered safe and should not interfere with your antibody results. The medications you typically need to avoid are those like ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) or naproxen (Aleve) that can cause intestinal irritation, which could potentially complicate the interpretation of an endoscopy if you were to have one. However, it is absolutely crucial that you confirm this with either your gastroenterologist or your surgeon before your procedure. They know the specifics of your case and can give you the definitive green light, ensuring your surgery is comfortable and your celiac testing remains accurate. Best of luck with your surgery tomorrow
