:ph34r: OMG - you should SEE what I wear whilst at home typing or working.....I actually DO run out to mailbox in such scroungy attire, speedy fast......like a stealthy, slovenly, ill-kempt middle-aged bullet. :lol:

It CAN NOT be worse than what I wear! :lol: And, no middle aged bullet here...I am a SLOW slovenly, ill-kempt middle-aged snail. Tonight...choir night...I shall wear my pajamas. No kidding! :lol:

Bev--There you are...and with some nice new wordage for us! Never heard of that one, but will incorporate ;)

Gosh--I forget what it was like to get up and get "dressed" in the morning. Of course, I get DRESSED, but just jeans..... I'm sure I would get a <_< from Stepford :lol:

nolens volens......must do etymological study on this phrase or can't use it satisfyingly and in good conscience. :lol:

Fun new word! I'm not sure if I'm confident on how to properly use it quite yet either.

It reminds me of modus ponens from logic class.

Lots of fun Latin in logic like reductio ad absurdum. B)

This is awesome. I bet all the houses don't match, either. :angry: (wait - I did choose to live here, after House of Terror it seemed lovely and safe and......normal :huh; )

OMG - my wacky friend Gail once went through a drive-through in her bathrobe w/ an oatmeal mask on her face.....and she was in her......thirties maybe? I didn't even bat an eye...... :lol:

My friend Jenn said, in the whole time I"ve known you, you are always saying you need to paint a room...... :lol: 'tis true. At any given time there is another room to paint, more curtains to be sewn, more rearranging of artifacts, more furniture to antique and refinish. NEver, ever done. :huh:

It's a much longer walk to the mailbox here--I used to be able to get out there and back in a few seconds. Too many walkers and joggers in MATCHED OUTFITS here.....I think they'd be horrified at the sight of me in my robe and slippers :lol:

Bev!!!!!!

Thanks for the new wordage, but I am just not clever enough to incorporate it into conversation.

I like willy nilly, it's just so much fun to say, rolls right off the tongue.

Oh dear Sillies- I am saddened by the fact (fat?) that I have grown quite UHM...PLUMP since beginning Lyme treatment. Thirty pounds! That's what I get for doing something about nausea on a daily basis and unable to tolerate more than 5 foods at a time. And I can't go out an rin a mile so....you will ALL have to pledge to dedicate helping me laugh off the weight- get out your funnies!

I think snorting is worth 50 calories.

Guffawing is clearly 100.

Laughing out loud...eh...200

Snorting is 250. Ok let's get started!

Guffawing

Oh, this makes me very sad :(

I've put on 20 lbs PRE lyme treatment. Gah, I can't have another 30 on top of that going through it :o

I better get to snorting.........

nikki-uk Enthusiast
......I HAVE gone to mailbox in my robe, whilst living here.

Well now, in England we have a fabulous invention called a letterbox....letters mail lands in your own hallway lobby!!! ...YES!!......imagine!!!!.......thus negating the need to go out in your dressing gown robe :lol::lol::lol:

This is awesome. I bet all the houses don't match, either. :angry:

Dear gawd!!!!!!! Matching houses I cannot imagine :huh:

OMG - my wacky friend Gail once went through a drive-through in her bathrobe w/ an oatmeal mask on her face.....and she was in her......thirties maybe? I didn't even bat an eye...... :lol:

Pure class!!! :lol: .......I like Gail :D

SILLIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I need help!!!!!!!!! gitcher silly arses over here and HELP ME PAINT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :P

Only if there's WINE.....oh..and bring Gail ;)

I put on 10 pounds since August, but can't pin that one on Lyme...it's the cookies. TWO huge packages of them. Now apparently am stuck with the poundage for life. :angry:

matched outfits. <_< HATE that. Hate especially all the thin young 'uns in their Juicy Couture velour matching sweats. Size 2, usually.

Well, am jealous, to be truthful. :huh:

:lol: 'Tis neither a hallway NOR a lobby here. 'tis the foyer or, front entry hall. :blink: wacky.

OMG - Gail is the wackiest of all. Extremely entertaining, you MUST all come and drink wine and paint with us. :rolleyes: Oh, except she never helps paint.

OMG - as I was just running Annie it dawned on me when my neighbors look MOST shocked at my appearance - it's when I"m fixed up. :lol: :lol: :lol: becuase, I am ALWAYS ALWAYS scrounging around in ugly comfy sweats/pj's or running pants......so when I "clean up" it's slightly astonishing - and a rare sighting - not unlike the Perseid meteor showers or something.................

GOOD GAWD!!!!!!!!!! I am trying to WORK people, now STOP IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :huh::lol:

I bet all the houses don't match, either. :angry:

My two favorite neighbors and I have the littlest, oldest, most run-down houses in the neighborhood. Just down the street they put in brand new 3/4 million dollar houses. I like to hang with my neighbor (in her robe) and her dog and talk about how much our houses are gonna be worth as people with more money than sense buy the houses down the street. Especially happy is the neighbor with the 800 SF house (with a wife and two kids and a big dog :blink: ) since his shack house is even closer.

Dressing gown sounds so much more fabulous than robe :lol:

And does jumper=sweater? I learned that from Bridget Jones :D

Yeah- snorting cocaine! i hear it's a GREAT weight loss supplement :P Well, i do have several things to blame......chocolate, chocolate, Lyme, chocolate. Hmm...did I forget anything?

I put on 10 pounds since August, but can't pin that one on Lyme...it's the cookies. TWO huge packages of them. Now apparently am stuck with the poundage for life. :angry:

Sounds like me....a minute on the lips FOREVER on the hips (especially when it's chips!)

So...loud, gut-twisting guffaws MUST be, like, 300 calories per .

OMG- anything gut twisting is your full calorie intake for the day! :P

Today is my one year anniversary of being diagnosed with Celiac disease! I didn't even realize it earlier today. I knew it was about a year ago but I hadn't really being thinking about the actual day. Ryan remembered and surprised me with chocolate fondue for dessert after supper!!! It was just a cute little bowl of melty chocolate with a small amount of fruit so I wouldn't get too much sugar (damn diabetes <_< ) but it made me so happy!

I feel a gazillion times better than I did this time last year and feel so lucky to be diagnosed. I think I may have been somewhat delirious with gluten brain and dehydration on the day of my scopes or at least that's my excuse for not remembering this special date until my fiance pointed it out to me. It feels more exciting celebration than my birthday!

'Tis so true, and I always wondered why the terms changed in the US......must look into linguistic shift. Probably becasue too many cultures amalgamated.........but why did a jumper change to sweater? and why in hell is it called a jumper anyway? :lol:

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :o

Aesthetic Vehicular Felony sighted todya......there is a new Jeep..........extremely disturbing......it was all rounded and stuff, looked like a.........like a ..........well maybe like a Nissan Murano? HORRID - - Jeeps are meant to be SQUARE, NOT rounded!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :angry:

<what is the world coming to>

oh - um - did you guys know the peculiar fact that since high school, I know EVERY SINGLE TRUCK and SUV that there is on the road? Can identify all of them.......but have utterly NO idea what kinds of BMW's, Mercedes, Lexus's, or anything else there is....can't tell 'em apart......so anywho this Jeep sighting was particularly troublesome :lol:

      Yes.  I have had the tmj condition for 40 years. My only help was strictly following celiac and also eliminating soy.  Numerous dental visits and several professionally made bite plates  did very little to help with symptoms
    • trents
      Cristiana makes a good point and it's something I've pointed out at different times on the forum. Not all of our ailments as those with celiac disease are necessarily tied to it. Sometimes we need to look outside the celiac box and remember we are mortal humans just like those without celiac disease.

      Also suffer badly with gluten and TMJD, cutting out gluten has been a game changer, seems to be micro amounts, much less than 20ppm.  Anyone else have issues with other food stuffs? Soy (tofu) and/or milk maybe causing TMJD flare-ups, any suggestions or ideas? --- I'm beginning to think it maybe crops that are grown or cured with glyphosphate. Oats, wheat, barley, soy, lentils, peas, chickpeas, rice, and buckwheat, almonds, apples, cherries, apricots, grapes, avocados, spinach, and pistachios.

      Hi @Scatterbrain Thank you for your reply.   Some of these things could be weaknesses, also triggered by stress, which perhaps have come about as the result of long-term deficiencies which can take a long time to correct.   Some could be completely unrelated. If it is of help, I'll tell you some of the things that started in the first year or two, following my diagnosis - I pinned everything on coeliac disease, but it turns out I wasn't always right!  Dizziness, lightheaded - I was eventually diagnosed with cervical dizziness (worth googling, could be your issue too, also if you have neck pain?)  A few months after diagnosis I put my neck out slightly carrying my seven-year-old above my head, and never assigned any relevance to it as the pain at the time was severe but so short-lived that I'd forgotten the connection. Jaw pain - stress. Tinnitus - I think stress, but perhaps exacerbated by iron/vitamin deficiencies. Painful ribs and sacroiliac joints - no idea, bloating made the pain worse. It got really bad but then got better. Irregular heart rate - could be a coincidence but my sister (not a coeliac) and I both developed this temporarily after our second Astra Zeneca covid jabs.   Subsequent Pfizer jabs didn't affect us. Brain fog - a big thing for people with certain autoimmune issues but in my case I think possibly worse when my iron or B12 are low, but I have no proof of this. Insomnia - stress, menopause. So basically, it isn't always gluten.  It might be worth having your vitamins and mineral levels checked, and if you have deficiencies speak to your Dr about how better to address them?

      @NanceK, I do have Hypersensitivity Type Four reaction to Sulfa drugs, a sulfa allergy.  Benfotiamine and other forms of Thiamine do not bother me at all.  There's sulfur in all kinds of Thiamine, yet our bodies must have it as an essential nutrient to make life sustaining enzymes.  The sulfur in thiamine is in a ring which does not trigger sulfa allergy like sulfites in a chain found in pharmaceuticals.  Doctors are not given sufficient education in nutrition (nor chemistry in this case).  I studied Nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology.  I wanted to know what vitamins were doing inside the body.   Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.   Not feeling well after starting Benfotiamine is normal.  It's called the "thiamine paradox" and is equivalent to an engine backfiring if it's not been cranked up for a while.  Mine went away in about three days.  I took a B Complex, magnesium and added molybdenum for a few weeks. It's important to add a B Complex with all eight essential B vitamins. Supplementing just one B vitamin can cause lows in some of the others and result in feeling worse, too.  Celiac Disease causes malabsorption of all the B vitamins, not just thiamine.  You need all eight.  Thiamine forms including Benfotiamine interact with each of the other B vitamins in some way.  It's important to add a magnesium glycinate or chelate supplement as well.  Forms of Thiamine including Benfotiamine need magnesium to make those life sustaining enzymes.  (Don't use magnesium oxide.  It's not absorbed well.  It pulls water into the intestines and is used to relieve constipation.)   Molybdenum is a trace mineral that helps the body utilize forms of Thiamine.   Molybdenum supplements are available over the counter.  It's not unusual to be low in molybdenum if low in thiamine.   I do hope you will add the necessary supplements and try Benfotiamine again.
