Then it would be the gluten-free Gert.

Hallo Sillies- As if I wasn't upset enough already about being demoderatorized :P<_< today just plain STUNK like a glutened celiac fart in a Dutch oven!!!!!!!!!!

Scott's message to me about this implies that if you are still active and want to be reinstated you can send him a message (PM?) and he will likely reactivate you.

Yes he can "reactivate" me but I have chosen no to cuz I'm scared. You wouldn't believe what I had to do to get activated :P:lol:

Had to be up and about early--my cutie-patootie plumber was here already....we sprung a small leak under the sink that he replaced in February. Turned out to be a defective seal, so he phixed it for phree. Woo-Hoo! :D

Ooohhhh...I could have used him today a cutie-patootie plumber!!!!!!!!!!!! Details to come.

One can use moderator "privileges" to do certain things? This could, surely, lead to abuse of one's position. Does one get forum lunches and company vehicles? What else, exactly, does the moderator status allow one to do besides read and post?....

Does a moderator get more emoticons? larger quotation quotas? Immunity from the "report" button? Hmmmmmm, what is going on?...... We little, ordinary members need to investigate all this.....

I did get busted at the moderator weekend in palm Springs this year for trying to bring the yeti into the hot tub ;)

I have thought about relocating to Arizona, my body would be a happy camper in the hot and dry there.

At least from November- April....Scottsdale or Sedona!

OK- I want some hugs here (no hubby to say "Oh, poor Bevvy" so you guys have to pitch in. I woke up this morning to a PICC line that sprayed out everything I tried to put into it (no alcohol-just sterile stuff). Not good :( . So I call my doc and he sys "No prob, they can be repaired" but will anyone up HERE repair one? NOOOOOOOOO. So into the hospital I go to have the old one removed and a new one put in. Just what I had planned on doing with my day.

POOPY COW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :( HARUMPH!!!!!!!!!!!!

Say that you are performing quite well at work, considering the amount of time you spend on an online celiac forum, pondering questions about wearing green, eating poop and tactics for avoiding jury duty.

You have two professional goals: To avoid completely the office pain-in-the-@ss that you've mentioned here, and....what else....oh, and to make more time to speak to your online friends.

There, that should cover it.

:lol: yes - but what about greater efficiency in making pressing decisions? such as - forehead rump vs. dangling chin feet or cleats vs. suction cups?

Thanks for all the suggestions Sillies! My goal is to spend more time in the Vortex.....I feel as if I have been neglecting my duties here! ;) Guess my boss wont want to hear that though?

:lol: who cares? who cares whatcher boss wants? IT"S YOUR SILLIES WHO MATTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:lol:

OMG - Kissey will be getting here at about 1 a.m. :blink: if all goes as planned, I will have been asleep for over two hours by then... dingo girl doesn't do so well without sleep.....I'm hoping he'll slip in unnoticed, and I can slumber away....................but unlikely.

TOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!! we have missed you...........

Hi all ... .just unreasonably depressed again but coming out of it I think.

Finished the humaworm yesterday. Nothing noteworthy came of that. Early on, it seemed to knock 10 or 20% off my goodness scale, so hopefully I get that back tomorrow.

And I'm 7 pages behind!!!!!!!!

Jury Duty! Ack! I only got called while living at the condo - longest term of residence for me so I'm thinking that's not a coincidence.

Figured I'd say "well, he wouldn't BE here if he wasn't guilty!" to get out of it. (Yes .. ..default defendant is male)

But, then considering that the notice didn't arrive by registered mail, I'd just toss 'em, knowing no one could prove I ever saw it.

3x I think.

BTW, some time after all that, my sister worked w/ the Clackamas County Court in Portland for a few yrs & said they only expect some low % to even respond. Maybe it was 20%?

Hi, Ptaoughmn! Hope yer silly's completely reinstated by tomorrow....

Sad that it's so difficult to get us, as a society, engaged in things like civic duty. I don't think I've ever heard anyone, ever, say, "Jeez...I wish I'd get an official summons for jury duty"....

:rolleyes:

      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.
    • SilkieFairy
      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a coincidence, but the brain fog is back and I feel very tired.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/
