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!

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

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..... <_<

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. ;)

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:

      Has anyone had terrible TMJ/ Jaw Pain from undiagnosed Celiac?

      Vitamin and mineral deficiencies can make TMJ worse. Vitamins like B12 , Thiamine B1, and Pyridoxine B6 help relieve pain. Half of the patients in one study were deficient in these three vitamins in one study below. Malabsorption of vitamins and minerals is common in celiac disease.

      Check your multivitamin to see if it contains Thiamine Mononitrate, which is a "shelf-stable" form of thiamine that doesn't break down with exposure to light, heat, and time sitting on a shelf waiting to be sold.  Our bodies have difficulty absorbing and utilizing it.  Only 30% is absorbed and less can be utilized.   There's some question as to how well multivitamins dissolve in the digestive tract.  You can test this at home.  YouTube has instructional videos.   Talk to your nutritionist about adding a B Complex.  The B vitamins are water soluble, so any excess is easily excreted if not needed.  Consider adding additional Thiamine in the forms Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) or thiamine hydrochloride.   Thiamine is needed to help control electrolytes.  Without sufficient thiamine, the kidneys loose electrolytes easily resulting in low sodium and chloride.   We need extra thiamine when we're emotionally stressed, physically ill, and when we exercise regularly, are an athlete, or do physical labor outdoors, and in hot weather.  Your return to activities and athletics may have depleted your thiamine and other B vitamins to a point symptoms are appearing.   The deficiency symptoms of B vitamins overlap, and can be pretty vague, or easily written off as due to something else like being tired after a busy day.  The symptoms you listed are the same as early B vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially Thiamine.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms can appear in as little as three days.  I recognize the symptoms as those I had when I was deficient.  It can get much worse. "My symptoms are as follows: Dizziness, lightheaded, headaches (mostly sinus), jaw/neck pain, severe tinnitus, joint stiffness, fatigue, irregular heart rate, post exercise muscle fatigue and soreness, brain fog, insomnia.  Generally feeling unwell." I took a B 50 Complex twice a day and extra thiamine in the forms Benfotiamine and TTFD.  I currently take the Ex Plus supplement used in this study which shows B vitamins, especially Thiamine B 1, Riboflavin B2, Pyridoxine B 6, and B12 Cobalamine are very helpful.   A functional evaluation of anti-fatigue and exercise performance improvement following vitamin B complex supplementation in healthy humans, a randomized double-blind trial https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10542023/

Malabsorption of vitamins and minerals is common in celiac disease.  It's important to eat healthy nutrient dense diets like the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet that has similarities to the Mediterranean diet mentioned in one of the studies.   Is there a link between diet and painful temporomandibular disorders?

      Yes.  I have had the tmj condition for 40 years. My only help was strictly following celiac and also eliminating soy.  Numerous dental visits and several professionally made bite plates  did very little to help with symptoms
