PINCH, PUNCH, FIRST DAY OF THE MONTH SILLIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please excuse my tardiness..... t'is my youngest son's birthday...he's 13 yrs old today (new wii game to play!)

Unfortunately this now means I have THREE teenage boys in the house (NOT recommended :lol: )

This reminds me of something strange I learned a few months ago that I have been meaning to pass on. Did you know Morning Glory seeds are hallucinogenic?

WHAT?!?!?!

You tell me this NOW!!!....I had like :unsure: ... a BAZILLION seeds all over my garden and I swept them up and replanted them???

GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhh.......man, what a missed opportunity ;)

OMG - I do have in my possession a bag of some morning glory seeds, someplace. :lol: Alex, am wondering how to eat them. Pop them into my mouth whole, crush them up, cut them in half - what IS the technique?

YES!!! I need to know!!!!!!!! <pestle & mortar in hand..crushing seeds furiously>...into a cake mix me thinks :lol:

...but ONLY KIDDING...don't try this at home folks!!! ...............

I'll take some morning glory cake or some of Susie's muskel relaxers . . . me back is killin' me. It's been a rough week. I bought a freezer chest. Hubby and I hauled in down to the basement. Unpackaged it. Found out that at some point in it's short life, it had been dropped (packaging was good, me thinks it happened at the factory). Hauled the freezer back up the stairs. Returned it to Lowes. Bought four new light fixtures instead - three of them ceiling fans. Was going to wait for husband to unload the van, but I had carpooling duty (not to be confused with Julie's reference to "dootie") and unloaded it myself and one of them was one too many. Now I'm walking like my mom.

Happy Birthday Nikki's youngest son!! Party On!

Oh and a :lol::lol::lol: to Uncle Ray.

Happy Birthday, Nikki's little boy! (Wouldn't that just drive him nuts if he heard it?) :lol::P

massively sore throat.......fiery red - no white things yet. sorry, gross..... fever: 97.6

At least you haven't a fever, Susie...Pull Annie up to you and languish a'bed. Did your friend come with sick-person treats?

OMG I just thought a Janet's-last-name-guess that is soooo good, I'm not even gonna post it. I'm gonna go PM her and find out if I'm close. ;)

I'm dying to know your last name, Janet! Making me crazy....can you give another little hint? How about fashioning it into a word puzzle? Now, that's word/letter puzzle, NOT numbers/maths. I'd have no hope in hell... :rolleyes:

Now I'm walking like my mom.

:lol::lol: Truly not funny, Janet, but I hear you with the maternal walk. I suddenly will move like my mom after too much back/hamstring work, and it is not a place I want to be yet. ....Well.......at least I don't regularly sound like her.......yet.

Okay!! So I was so anxious to see this pic my dad dug up of G. Bolero, The Everday Mineral Grand Sect Leader, I headed out in this blizzard we are currently having to pick it up. Here we had cancelled his eye surgery due to the treacherous driving conditions, and I show up at his place, snow piled up on my back, knuckles white from some challenging steering/swerving. "Okay......Gotta see that pic". Well, I now remember this character. Uh.....indescribable. So I need to get my scanner going. Where are my computer-elite children when I need them?

Now you know WHY you thought they were GORRRRRRgeous!!!!!!!!!! They were enGORGEd magos- all juicy and ripe for the pickin :P:ph34r:

I have a much less manly mango displayed for you all now....

it's Gaylord!!!!!! OMG- how much would you kill if someone named you gaylord (I actually know a female Gaylord). Dated a guy in college whose last name was Woodcock :rolleyes::ph34r:

BRING on the MORNING GLORIES!!!!!!!!

Just so you know, here are the precautions to take:

Contraindications

* Do not operate heavy machinery. Do Not Drive.

* Do not use Morning Glory seeds when pregnant. LSD is closely related to LSD which is a uterine contractor that can increase risk of miscarriage during pregnancy.

* Individuals currently in the midst of emotional or psychological upheaval in their everyday lives should be careful about choosing to use psychedelics such as Morning Glory seeds as they can trigger even more difficulty. :lol: :lol: :lol:

* Individuals with a family history of early onset mental illness should be extremely careful as psychedelics have been known to trigger latent psychological and mental problems.

      Surgery was in April 2023 due adhesions wrapped around my small bowel which caused blockage and had to be removed. Adhesions were so badly entangled that Surgeon could not cut out them, so the resection was performed. July 2025 started having severe yellow diarrhea and sometimes constipation. Just had another episode and was tested for celiac. Blood test...

      Small Bowel Resection 12 inches

      By trents · Posted

      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes inflammation and produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood by specific tests like the TTG-IGA test you had. Over time, if gluten is not withheld, this inflammation can cause severe damage to the lining of the small bowel and even result in nutrient deficiency related health issues since the small bowel lining is organ where all the nutrition found in our food is absorbed.  The other is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just "gluten sensitivity") which we know less about and are unsure of the exact mechanism of action. It is not an autoimmune disorder and unlike celiac disease it does not damage the lining of the small bowel, though, like celiac disease, it can cause GI distress and it can also do other kinds of damage to the body. It is thought to be more common than celiac disease. Currently, we cannot test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out to arrive at a diagnosis of NCGS. Both disorders require elimination of gluten from the diet.  Either of these disorders can find their onset at any stage of life. We know that celiac disease has a genetic component but the genes are inactive until wakened by some stress event. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% develop active celiac disease. The incidence of NCGS is thought to be considerably higher. I hope this helps.

      Welcome to the celic.com community @Ello! You say you had a blood test for celiac disease after eating gluten for 2 weeks. Were you gluten free before that? Had you ever been officially diagnosed with celiac disease previously? You say the result of the blood test was 1.5. Can you provide the name of the test and the reference range for negative vs. positive for the test? I ask because different labs used different reference ranges so scores without a reference range aren't very helpful.

Adhesions were so badly entangled that Surgeon could not cut out them, so the resection was performed. July 2025 started having severe yellow diarrhea and sometimes constipation. Just had another episode and was tested for celiac. Blood test stated 1.5 after eating gluten for 2 weeks. Lipase level was 120. Having an CT scan to check the pancreas. I have never had any issues eating gluten and now I am so fearful that I might have celiac. Has anyone had a small bowel resection? I am 65 years old. UGGH! I am still feeling bloating etc.

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      If your tTg-IgA was 28 and positive is at 3, you are nearly 10x over the positive marker, so the most likely explanation by far would be celiac disease. I also do not understand why your doctor would not want to run the blood test, which is the normal first step in the diagnosis process.
