Methinks Susie is snogging with sexy sailors!!!!!

She found caramels in the trash bargain bin?

:lol: :lol: :lol: Or NUGGETS.........

Nikki and Bev - Have you seen your pets lately? Have you misplaced them? Have you loaned them out to some harlot skank celeb as some sort of weird hair extension?

No animals were harmed in the making of this av.

OK...you are KILLING me here. I saved your av as "Angus lost in Amy Winehouse" Folks- if you EVAH lose anything in Amy, it ain't NEVAH coming back. A friend of mine used to refer to it as the "throwing a hot dog down a hall way"syndrome.

Susie snogging with sexy sailors, sounds like a tongue twister :lol::lol:

Methinks Susie ran off on holiday with Jude Law, or to the Hamptons to that beach house....some kind of adventure.

Nuggets could also be involved :lol:

I must admit I have made several trips to the Yukon Quest website.

It's great fun, isn't it? Addictive, in the strangest of ways...I mean, chocolate or gambling I can understand...but a 1,000-mile sled dog race, a million miles away? What the...?.... :rolleyes:

WELL.....Michelle must stop being friendly with this Dastardly David Dalton. This is do or die, man....dig in and leave him in a spray of snow!

So, we've gotten the lowdown on Mr. Sass. D'ya think he may have gotten this "virus" from someone quite recently? Wasn't Susie rather ill last week?

And now it seems that Brent Sass has caught up and all three of them are currently at Pelly Crossing.

In the summer of 1994, Jacquie and I took five weeks and drove to Alaska, visiting a number of places in the real Northwest (the folks in Washington state have a thing or two to learn ;) ). Carmacks and Pelly Crossing are places that I have been to! My brother spent three months in Dawson City this summer.

GO, MICHELLE!!

I've never been up to Whitehorse, but we may go this summer. It's a nine-hour flight (we're closer to France, or Italy...crazy!) Man, I'd love to be up at that finish line!! :)

It's getting crowned at Pelly Crossing. Kelley Griffin and her team arrived about an hour ago. Anderson and Mackey are at Carmacks, while Michelle, Dalton, Sass and Griffin are all at Pelly Crossing.

Woohoo!! Michelle gave Dastardly David Dalton a taste of his own medicine hat.

She came in to a checkpoint a minute behind, but last I checked, she was out & he was not. :D yay!!!!!

If it wasn't for the freaking frigid temps, I think Susie would move to the Yukon for the dogs!!

Good Morning, Fellow Questers!!

Oh, boy.....gettin' REALLY exciting:

Before he left for work, DH was looking at me with his oft-donned expression, "yeah...sure", when I was going on and on about how involved we all are in Sillyville with Michelle's quest. So I led him over to the laptop and scrolled over the last few posts.

He stood, slack-jawed. Then he let out a large guffaw and said, "Whoa! Amazing...I'll email Ed (his bro and Michelle's DH) this morning and tell him. Such far-reaching fans...That is really something"......I quickly stated, "No, Will......ya gotta get it right. It's really somefin'". :lol::lol:

Amanda! How's your SIL? C-sections can involve some true recovery time, and with a newborn to contend with, I'm sure these coming weeks will be something of a trial. But such a happy, wondrous trial! :)

Peter!! Are you guys getting another dumping of SNOW?! Mygawd....coming down here in a frightful storm-like way.

Morning Em,

We are going to see her tonight, she was worn out last night and since she had been up all night pushing she was very tired. So we didn't want to bother her at all. Plus she sounded half out of it from the meds yet.

Soooooooooooziiiieeeeee!?

Brent Sass has recovered from his stomach bug. I believe Susie is there with him. I can just FEEL it. She's nursed him back to health, been hanging onto his back the last couple of days as they whip over the frozen landscape.... :lol::rolleyes:

Amanda, how long does the typical C-sectioned mom stay in hospital down there? I'm curious because here things are HEINOUS. Because we have problems with lack of beds, uncomplicated births have you out in 36 hours, and C-sections I believe are 48-72 hours. Just not long enough..... :angry:

She should be home Thurs or Friday.

My sister was home on Friday and she had her C-section on a Monday.

A few flurries expected today, but no significant accumulation. We are expecting about 5 cms (2 in) on Friday.

Yeah, it's something I've wanted to do for a long time. I haven't cruised to Alaska yet, but when I do that's definitely one thing I want to do on an excursion!

I LOVE dogs, but just the whole experience looks like it would be great!

      You’re not crazy—some people have severe neurological and physical reactions to gluten, not just digestive issues. While testing can be tricky without eating gluten, documenting symptoms and seeing a specialist familiar with atypical celiac or gluten-related disorders can help. Your reactions are real, and it’s valid to be cautious.

      High TTG-IgG and Normal TTG-IgA

      By SamAlvi · Posted

      Hi, thank you for the reply. Unfortunately, no other antibody tests were ordered. I am a 32-year-old male. About two months ago, I ate pancakes and then developed severe diarrhea that lasted the entire day. At night, I became unconscious due to fluid loss and was admitted to the ER, where I received IV fluids. Two days later, I ate bread again and once more developed severe diarrhea. I ended up in the ER again and received IV fluids. In my country, Pakistan, doctors are unfortunately not very thorough, so they treated me for a stomach infection. I visited three or four doctors, including a gastroenterologist, but it seemed like they just wanted to keep me on medications and IV fluids. Eventually, I did some digging myself and started connecting the dots. For years, I’ve had excessive gas buildup and frequent loose stools, but I never paid much attention to it. I also cannot easily digest dairy products. Two years ago, I had a CBC test that showed iron deficiency. My doctor told me to eat more meat and said it was nothing serious. However, for the past five years, I’ve also had severe motion sickness, which I never experienced before. Whenever I get on a bus or in a car, I sometimes lose consciousness for 10–20 seconds and wake up sweaty, and occasionally I feel the need to vomit. After more research on the internet, I came across gluten and celiac disease, so I got two related tests (TTG-IgA & TTG IgG) done along with a stool test and another CBC. The stool test showed weakly positive blood. Ever since eating those pancakes and bread, I’ve had a burning sensation in my gut. My doctor reviewed my tests, he told me to completely stop eating gluten and started me on IV fluids for 20 days, saying that I had severe inflammation in my gut. It has now been two months since I quit gluten, and I’m still not sure whether this is celiac disease or gluten intolerance. I don’t really trust doctors in Pakistan, so I thought I might get some help here.

When people are IGA deficient, celiac panel IGA test scores, such as the TTG-IGA, are likely not valid. If a total IGA test was not ordered, I would request such to be done. Note: "Total IGA" goes by other names as well. I will include a primer on celiac disease antibody testing which does a good job in covering the nomenclature variations connected with the various tests. Elevated IGG scores can certainly indicate celiac disease but they are more likely than elevated IGA tests to be caused by something else.

I believe a diagnosis would help me to be taken seriously by doctors as well as being validating, but can carry on without it.    There are many, probably most people in my area of my age and gender, who avoid gluten, but many just avoid it casually— eating the occasional plate of wheat pasta or a delicious-looking dessert, or baking cookies with wheat flour for gatherings.  That is not an option for me. I don’t eat other people’s cooking or go to restaurants that do not have strict cross- contamination procedures. It can be boring and lonely, and people do look at me as if I am being a bit dramatic but weeks of symptoms after a single small exposure has taught me to respect my experience.    Thank you very much for your response— sometimes I just need to hear that I am not crazy—
