I agree, it would be awesome! But NOT in February, when there are three hours of light in a day, and it averages -40....gad. I can't even imagine going outside for my mail, let alone flying along on a dogsled, in this kind of winter. We hope to head up there this summer and we'll have them take us out. Michelle and Ed live in Tagish, which is a community in the bush, about 100 miles from Whitehorse. They have seventy to eighty dogs on their property, all with their own dog houses. It's quite something! :)

I totally agree about waiting till summer--3 hours of light and such extreme cold :o

Sounds like an awsome property, though. :)

OH MY SILLIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just spent ONE HOUR reading, w/ many quotes and posts to address, started writing, they are ALL GONE NOW................ <insert angry face>

I tried and TRIED to invoke the powers of this elusive so-called magic triangle............ :huh:

alas, Susie is too dingo-brained and stricken w/ delirium to be angry over the failings of the triangle and the lost words and thoughts. :lol:

GOOD GAWD??????????? Where to start?

AMANDA - congrats on baby Lydia!!!!!!! And your Wegman's shoot - you are FAMOUS!!!!! You WILL post the link, right?

Tom - - ABSINTHE????????????????????? OMG - how IS it? does it taste normal and real? Susie is pleased......... :rolleyes:

Bev - I was NOT licked to death by Chinese Crested dogs......and I was also in T-R-O-U-B-L-E and also am T-R-O-U-B-L-E itself, as Nicola mentioned. ;)

I have NOT been with that Dastardly Dave (was taht his name? ) of the Yukon quest....insofar as I know...I was NOT overcome by large pointy-eared dogs w/ black noses (only at Dog Park on Saturday).......but there WAS a David here.......... :ph34r::lol:

OMG Janet that "lost cat" - - - sure as hell was the chubacabra, was it not????? :lol:

Bev - LIttle Britain - GOOD GAWD!!!!!!!! What in hell IS that show? :lol:

ALEX - so glad you're better! :)

EMILY!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG!!!!!!!!! what is the LATEST w/ MIchelle? does it end today? GOOD LORD!!!!!!!!!!! a silly relative in third? <Susie is delirious and can't completely follow> but OUT OF MY MIND taht Will is emailing friends of the sillies' avid interest <and somefin' :lol: >

Patti, how is Allo?

Still no sign of Sarah? :(

what else? oh I forgot everything else......

OMG - thread-shattering news of my weekend??????????? ;)

WOULDN"T YOU LIKE TO KNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:lol:

It did NOT involve finding nuggets or caramels in the trash....it did NOT involve inheriting the cabin or getting a brand new Toyota ForeRunner......it did NOT involve laying hardwood <oh gawd stop me before I go any further with that> :ph34r: It did NOT involve the flower mart......

It DID involve major sleep deprivation, laughter, romping w/ Annie in various spots, movies, shopping, talking, reading, music, cooking, laughing, smooching, more talking, laughing, walking in the gentle spring sun, wine, flowers, chocolate.......and it DID end up being about the most fun weekend that I"ve had in my...........whole life. :o [but gitcher minds out of the gutter, peeps, because it was wholesome and proper also, just so you understand - Susie has to take her time wif things, you know, and wasn't just SHAGGING all weekend :lol: )

Sillies.......I"m not making any major announcements at this time but........let's just say this - - Susie is not going to have as much time for the silly thread any more and...........also this

:wub::wub: <------ 'tis a hint

:P

And now I must catch up with real life.

Ooh--Bev's in rare form tonight! :P

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: Beverly said "skank"

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

Look what you started Emily, we are obsessed with all things mush, mushers, mushing! :lol:

OMG- I think you might be onto something. What if it's Jude Law AND his nuggets!! Or...could Susie have gone to the Yukon to pet the pups!!!!!!!!!!!

I want the puppies!!!!!!! When Kurt and I went to Denali in 2001, we hung out with their sled dogs who had just had puppies- I wanted them ALL!!!!!!!

I taught Angus to push last winter....Open Original Shared Link

New Av . . .

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

Woof woof!!!!!!!!

Emily I didn't know that Michelle is your DH's SIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!VERY COOL!

Jude Law's Nuggets, now that's quite a twist in the scenario and quite a lovely vision in my mind :lol:

      Welcome to the forum, @Mmoc! Please include the reference ranges for the IGA and the TTG tests in your next post if you have access to them. We cannot comment much otherwise as different labs use different reference ranges for these tests and also different units of measurement. There are no universal standards as of yet so the raw test numbers are not always helpful. Having said that, if your IGA (what we usually call "total IGA") is low, the TTG-IGA score will be skewed and cannot be trusted. Other kinds of tests for celiac disease would need to be run, particularly those in the IGG family of tests. Perhaps this will be helpful:

      Hi there any advice welcomed. I have had 4 years of symptoms ranging from immune related anaphylactic symptom sudden onset food allergy to peppers/paprika/chilli/capsicum family derivatives. all these allergies fizzled out and following a food challenge test in hospital I reintroduced them a few months ago. Since then my digestive system is a mess. i have since noticed that 4 years ago when testing for iga allergies my iga level was .62 and my ttg was less than .1 (due to symptoms I was probably eating very plainly at that time). should I insist on being retested for celiac? I’ve since read two indicators for celiac include: sensitive to spicy foods when in flare up tooth enamel weakness and symmetrical discolouration patches on teeth which I have had since childhood on my two front teeth     thanks

      This article does not address migraines at all.  Yes, red wine and sulfites are often mentioned in connection with migraine triggers. With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably. So, I think most of my migraines are tied to fluctuations vascular tension and blood flow to the brain. That's why the sumatriptan works so well. It is a vaso constrictor.

      Excessive dietary tyrosine can cause problems.  Everything in moderation.   Sulfites can also trigger migraines. Sulfites are found in fermented, pickled and aged foods, like cheese.  Sulfites cause a high histamine release.  High histamine levels are found in migraine.  Following a low histamine diet like the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet, helps immensely.    Sulfites and other migraine trigger foods can cause changes in the gut microbiome.  These bad bacteria can increase the incidence of migraines, increasing histamine and inflammation leading to increased gut permeability (leaky gut), SIBO, and higher systemic inflammation.   A Ketogenic diet can reduce the incidence of migraine.  A Paleo diet like the AIP diet, that restricts carbohydrates (like from starchy vegetables) becomes a ketogenic diet.  This diet also changes the microbiome, eliminating the bad bacteria and SIBO that cause an increase in histamine, inflammation and migraine.  Fewer bad bacteria reduces inflammation, lowers migraine frequency, and improves leaky gut. Since I started following the low histamine ketogenic AIP paleo diet, I rarely get migraine.  Yes, I do eat carbs occasionally now, rice or potato, but still no migraines.  Feed your body right, feed your intestinal bacteria right, you'll feel better.  Good intestinal bacteria actually make your mental health better, too.  I had to decide to change my diet drastically in order to feel better all the time, not just to satisfy my taste buds.  I chose to eat so I would feel better all the time.  I do like dark chocolate (a migraine trigger), but now I can indulge occasionally without a migraine after.   Microbiota alterations are related to migraine food triggers and inflammatory markers in chronic migraine patients with medication overuse headache https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11546420/

      Then we would need to cut out all meat and fish as they are richer sources of tyrosine than nuts and cheese. Something else about certain tyrosine rich foods must be the actual culprit.
