Gus does this exact thing, also, at different times of the day. Sits ramrod straight, like a spectacular showdog, squints and remains still. Thinking? Praying? Bah....This is a MALE, remember.....likely what's going on:

"Now, do I have to poop? Um.....should I go and empty my food dish first? Is either cat around to flip up into the air? Or drooling...could just do that for a while".......

:lol:

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Doesn't sound very different than human males. :huh:

(had no idea what a ballcock was so had to look it up:

A self-regulating cistern tap turned off and on by the rising or falling of a hollow ball, which floats on the surface of the liquid and is connected to the tap by a lever).

Bev, 'tis how yer toilet works.

Susie! Methinks it's the roids getting in the way of your mojo. How long do you have to stay on them?

Every time I see "roids", I think hema- and not ster- . . . I guess either could get in the way of yer mojo, tho.

oops - missed this before!

Um..........is it the 'roids? I thought they were supposed to make you HYPER and have energy (that's what happened the only other time I took them, and I got manic :huh: )

Four more days.....but it's now half the dose........

Is there a squirrel? Did you see a squirrel? Was that a squirrel? Where are all the squirrels? Have you got a squirrel? Did you hear that squirrel? . . .

Janet! Surely with an inner dialogue like that, Josie must be keeping squirrels at bay and saving your screens!

So....speaking of 'roids, Jack is starting a very mild corticosteroid nasal spray for his chronic rhinitus. I'm not completely comfortable with this, but we'll try it for a week and see if he develops popping deltoids or experiences uncontrollable schoolyard rage..... <_<

Oh. how disappointing, doesn't sound like it can wake me up for tonight's outing. :huh:

Why yes indeedie--he did! :lol:

I also use a steroid nasal spray--Nasacort--when needed. Also used Flonase--been usin 'em for years. My opinion is that they're better than systemic meds for regular use. ;)

Well suuuuurrrreeee . . . just add that to the list with the other dirty-word-wanna-bes that Bev googled for us.

Welcome to the silly thread, Lisa. I hope you'll stick around.

Everybody, this is Lisa, a fellow Indianaian . . . I never did care for the term Hoosier. Now everybody be nice (Emily, this means you) and try not to scare her away. Misty only lasted one posting; let's see if we can do better.

I seem to remember one I heard about twenty years ago from my boss at the time.

A young man was considering marriage and was talking with his girl friend's father about it.

He says, "I'm in love with your daughter, and want to ask for her hand in marriage."

Her father says, "I feel that I must tell you that my daughter has acute angina."

He says, "Oh good, 'cuz she has no tits at all!" :ph34r:

How exciting!!!! Do we know her name?? I may have missed it as I breezed through the posts to catch up. Good luck to the Ripper. I tried to suggest to my son's baseball team to use nicknames on their jersey's instead of their names . . . just for phun . . . got no takers, harrruuummmph. The Ripper would be a great nickname for the back of a jersey!!

Well....her name right now is Chelsea, and I would never change a year-old dog's name to something totally different, as I could see that being pretty confusing, but my niece is Chelsea, she's around a lot, and it's so much a "human" name, somehow, for me. I'd like to alter it a little, perhaps to Elsie, which is a great old Scotish derivitive of Elizabeth. We'll see...nothing's definite, yet.....gotta met her first and introduce her to our goofball....

:lol::lol: The Ripper on a jersey! This is great, as Jack has finally gotten the hang of a proper bat swing, and he ended up rippin' a couple out into centRE this morning. Needs to REALLY work on his defensive skills, however.....could be a long season, there.... :rolleyes:

Delila went to Lyle pretty easily. I had been calling her Lyla, now I call him Lylie. (Actually mostly I call both of them Big Boy, I think it's the tone in your voice, not the actual word, unless, of course, the word is treat)

Considering where I work, surely you don't think I scare easily :P I have a feeling I'll feel right at home!!!! Sooo.... If this is my big day....do I get a party....or 100 Twinkies shoved down my throat?

BTW, looks like I need to have an avatar of my pets. I have a beautiful shepherd-chow mix named Zeus. Don't let the name fool you...he's the biggest wus you've ever seen. Among other things, he is scared to death of football games on TV b/c everybody gets excited and yells. As soon as he hears the pre-game commentators, he starts panting and goes into hiding :ph34r:

      Bob red mill gluten free oats

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified...

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you...

      High TTG-IgG and Normal TTG-IgA

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease...

The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining it often results in nutritional deficiencies such as anemia. NCGS does not damage the small bowel lining so your history of anemia may suggest you have celiac disease as opposed to NCGS. But either way, a gluten-free diet is in order. NCGS can cause bodily damage in other ways, particularly to neurological systems.
