BAHHHH!!!!!!!!! busted by the emoticon police then.....

The bank have phoned me today to tell me that hubby\\\'s card has been \\\'cloned\\\' (very sci-fi) and that a person in India has very kindly taken it upon themselves to spend ALL our cash (and then some)

Either that or Terry has a secret double life in Mumbai :unsure: (he does look very tanned :blink: )

<_<<_<

Doggy thoughts were excellent :lol:

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: )

Yeah - they did with hubby but I think it depends how high your dose is.

Has the swelling gone down??? :unsure: (said the actress to the bishop)

:lol: Hemorrhoids - the mojo killer, to be sure. Had them once........... egregiously (h)anus.

OMG!!!!!!

Egregious!!!!

(having 3 children the old fashioned way will do that to a gal :rolleyes: )

TMI???? :lol:

Someone else who needs Gravol!

GAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!

Give it to ME!!!!!!

I am the worlds worst traveller (it\\\'s got slightly better with age) but OMG!!, my worst mode of transport BY FAR is on a boat.

Dear god!! ...many, many boat trips were had where I thought I was going TO DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You have NEVER seen anyone be soooooo ill (heinousity :angry: )

There was one particular ferry to France on a choppy sea that I for one shall NEVER forget :rolleyes:

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:

:lol::lol::lol::lol:

Love the way our Oracle leader just drops that HILARIOUSLY phunny joke in there ;)

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?

Think fluids, Lisa ;)

OMGawd Nikki--thats horrible :angry::(

A number of years ago, Mark was the victim of identity theft. Someone got access to his personal information and opened an account in his name and proceeded to spend 10 grand in one day in the NYC area.

Lucky for us, the bank (who he at one time did have an account with) noticed the address they gave and the spending and alerted Mark.

Good luck sorting it all out :)

Heinous thieves :angry:

They are spongy I guess---the closest thing to it would probably be angel food cake, with a fluffy white filling. To describe it, it doesn't sound that exciting, but some people are addicted to those things :rolleyes: It's like one of those warm fuzzies from childhood memories. :D

Gnich, twinkies barely have the texture of food. Like a cross betw sponge cake & cotton candy. And creamy artificial filling in every bite.

So naturally, we loved 'em!

. . . and if you happen to find one that was misplaced during your childhood . . . it's still good . . . they never go bad!!

I was a fan of DingDongs myself. Yet when I've had them as an adult (last time, two years ago) I've always been dissappointed. Don't know if they changed it or if my palate has matured . . . would be the only thing that has matured.

Where's Emily??? We need some doggie details!!! I think just leave the name Chelsie for a while . . . it will evolve into something else naturally . . . always does. Chelsie to Elsie to Ellie to Ellie Belly to Belly Dog. OK, just call her BellyDog.

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:

:lol: Zeus will fit right in with our motley crew here, bipeds and otherwise.

well.......sorry to burst YER bubble, Lisa......it's not much to do w/ drinking fluids.......more of an unexpected onslaught of fluids. Plumbing leak, floods, someone wetting the bed, dog peeing on the floor, lots of snot/mucous.........we always just say that you should have your tarps handy...... :unsure:

Emily has a SUPERB ginger cat!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

She does indeed. Ummm........have we heard about this cat before? I cna't remember....... :unsure:

Yes, very artificial, which is highly desired in a childhood junk snack. :lol:

....with more air :P

air, chemicals, fluff, many many more artificial ingredients. :blink: I, too liked the DingDongs and HoHo's in childhood.......had some a few years ago and they just tasted nasty - - just PURE chemicals nad nothing good.....

Where's Emily??? We need some doggie details!!! I think just leave the name Chelsie for a while . . . it will evolve into something else naturally . . . always does. Chelsie to Elsie to Ellie to Ellie Belly to Belly Dog. OK, just call her BellyDog.

....not on a flood plain...no little ones at home, and I don't think DH or I will be having any bed-wetting or major snot/mucous issues that we can't handle....so that brings me down to about a 40% chance of a "fluid onslaught" <_< ...I guess I can live with that :lol:

      Potential celiac need advice

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.
