Nikki!!!!! That's great news :D

Is Alan looking forward to it--is he all excited? Disney World is truly a magical place--I'm so happy that he will be going. I hear that they are VERY gluten savvy there, so he should have absolutely no problems with food. We took the boys there years ago when they were younger--he's gonna love it!!

Wow--so great to get some really good news for a change! :)

and oh Ptaum, Oracle of Absinthe - we're passing briefly through Willow GleN on Friday...........what in hell should we do about absinthe?

Uhhhhhhhh .. . .. . . #@!*&#! buy some????? :P

Heehee ok well your friend certainly knows that BevMo is ~1/2 block S of Willow, and you BOTH probably know that street pkg can be difficult but that there's a giant lot behind all those stores - and a back entrance to BevMo.

Last week there were still 3 bottles of the Swiss, K

Nikki!!! Such terrific news..... :):):) How old is your son? Well, Disneyland is a place where age just doesn't matter....Oh, you must be so happy....!!

Would I lie to you??

(Ooh that's that old Eurhythmics song w/ the fat crunchy guitar and puh-UNCHY horns!!!!)

And one Annie Lennox at her absolute sexiest....in a clinging, sparkly dress, Marilyn-type wig....

Yeah, and great horns.... B):)

P.S. Ok duh, yes I would lie to you if there might be a joke in it - but not lying about Absinthian Destruction. :ph34r:

If you ever get to try some, sipping 1 or 2 or 3 drinks is great (do I hear 4?), while inhaling 8 or 12 is NOT!!!!!!!

Absinthian Destruction....this may well describe the upcoming weekend, if I imbibe The Phaerie and then head out for some night skiing.... :rolleyes::o

A serious moment, here...Ptaum, I need you to give me an idea of what the "high' is like with a couple of absinthes (whoa--how on earth does one pronounce that?) under one's belt. Is it, "Hey!! Let's play Twister!! Tag! Let's make snow forts!!" or more like, "Man........I'm hearing some.....grrrrreeeeat music.........it's.....sitars"...

I think we're gonna want a more relaxing buzz for this occasion. Is it very sweet? Like, big-time insulin bolus?

He was most distressed to discover that this wasn't part of the rental agreement. Perhaps also distressed to discover what a screaming shrew I can become at 10pm when someone walks into my bedroom.

No little Absynthians coming along here.

ORACLE PETER! Are you hearing the same forecasts that I AM? 20 cm of you-know-what overnight tonight, and 40 on the weekend??!!!! :o:wacko::blink::angry::angry:

That was our forecast for the weekend, but now it seems to have gone away. Oh, wait, now I guess I know where it went.

20 to 25 overnight here. It hasn't started yet. Of course, tommorrow is a delivery morning, with the truck officially expected at 8:30 (it is usually earlier).

Nikki, that's fabulous news!

Yes! Who needs Morning Glory seeds when you have morphine. My grandpa had a cancerous lung tumor removed about 10 years ago (found by accident on an x-ray and cured completely by surgery - talk about lucky/divine intervention). After the surgery he was all hopped up on morphine and thought that the nurses were trying to hold him hostage. He was adamant that he was secret security for President Clinton and was proclaiming this to everyone! He kept whispering to my mom to get him is clothes so he could sneak out and meet Clinton on Air Force One :lol: . The funniest part is that he remembered the whole episode afterwards when he was lucid and we all had a good laugh about it.

Hopefully you don't have appendicitis :( but if you do you may have some funny morphine stories to tell us about.

      I was undiagnosed for decades. My ferritin when checked in 2003 was 3. It never went above 10 in the next 20 years. I was just told to "take iron". I finally requested the TTgIgA test in 2023 when I was well and truly done with the chronic fatigue and feeling awful. My numbers were off the charts on the whole panel.  they offered me an endoscopic biopsy 3 months later, but that i would need to continue eating gluten for it to be accurate. so i quit eating gluten and my intestine had healed by the time i had the biopsy (i'm guessing??). Why else would my TTgIgA be so high if not celiacs? Anyway, your ferritin will rise as your intestine heals and take HEME iron (brand 4 arrows). I took 20mg of this with vitamin c and lactoferrin and my ferritin went up, now sits around 35.  you will feel dramatically better getting your ferritin up, and you can do it orally with the right supplements. I wouldn't get an infusion, you will get as good or better results taking heme iron/vc/lf.

      Scott, I agree with everything you said except the term "false negative". It should be a "true negative" just plain negative. I actually looked up true/false negative/positive as it pertains to testing. The term "false negative" would be correct if you are positive (have anti-bodies) and the test did not pick them up. That would be a problem with the "test" itself. If you were gluten-free and got tested, you more than likely would test "true" negative or just negative. This means that the gluten-free diet is working and no anti-bodies should be present. I know it sounds confusing and if you don't agree feel free to respond. 
    • SilkieFairy
      I realized it is actually important to get an official diagnosis because then insurance can cover bone density testing and other lab work to see if any further damage has been done because of it. Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have 4 kids, and I really want to know. If I really do have it then they may have increased risk. 
    • par18
      Been off this forum for years. Is it that important that you get an official diagnosis of something? It appears like you had a trigger (wheat, gluten, whatever) and removing it has resolved your symptom. I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free condition. I was diagnosed over 20 years ago and have been symptom free only excluding wheat, rye and barley. I tolerate all naturally gluten free whole foods including things like beans which actually helps to form the stools. 
    • trents
      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.
