ok but wait - - I only eat and write left-handed. Everything else is strong right - tennis, batting, etc. etc. and kick w/ right foot.......

:wacko:

Me, too. Though I prefer to eat right handed because I bump elbows if I eat left handed. But I eat just as easily with my left hand as my right.

With some practice, I could write right handed .... I will sign my name, or write something short with my right hand if I'm holding something in my left.

When I was a child, I was totally ambidextrous .... did not know my right from my left for years!

Why do you think I'm called curlyfries?

I assumed you loved curly fries :lol::lol:

Wow, lots of curly haired lefties, I thought we were the minority :lol:

I also just eat and write with my left hand, I do most everything else with my right hand.

So I went outside, and sure enough-- Ezra is standing under the tree, pitiful look on his face, head stuck to the bird feeder. :rolleyes:

:lol::lol: Poor Ez! You've painted this picture so well, Sarah....I can see him so clearly....

Em, congrats on yer pap and your convoluted cervix. I have the same. :ph34r: (v. painful paps as quite hard to access :o )

This guy made the dreaded test pain-free, and speedy as hell.....quite a magic man. He should be given a key to the city, methinks.

And I didn't even pull out the sparkles!

Don't have any in the house, as my kids seem to have outgrown them, and all the crafty things they entail...I do still have some peel-and-stick Ottawa Senators tattoos, and I thought of putting one right where he'd be descending, as we have talked in the past about being loyal fans.

Next year.

Patti - gloss-black stool to go w/ yer chairs. :lol: Yes, since WHEN have we been painting our stools?

:o Whoa...black stools....hemmorroids?

Yep.....that'll be me! I have a totally dyslexic brain when it comes to right handed gadgets :wacko: I didn't figure out until I was 18 why my shoes never stayed tied :blink: I was tying them 1/2 left handed and 1/2 right handed!

I'm a southpaw, as well...always had trouble with can openers.... :angry:

I had a thought about the quicksand one, you know you don't hear so much about quicksand anymore. It used to be in a movie or two, and several tv shows...oh, it's the dreaded quicksand, however will they get out....... but no, not so much anymore.

It's true...where is all the quicksand? Where are all the travelling vacuum salesmen?

Hmmmmm.....could there be a relationship there?

I do remember a few classic things like the Puffy Shirt, or the Man Bra, the Soup Nazi......

Righty here. Strongly Right-eyed even :blink:

......do y'all remember the episode when George abstained from sex and became smarter, Elaine participated and got increasingly dumber..........so - -she's standing in front of this - what in hell was it? - rotating helix-type shape - maybe in front of a tire store er sumfin'? and it's going round and round......and she's standing in front of it, her head going round and round, mimicking the motion of the thing-y, with a huge, dopey grin on her face.......and she's laughing like a simpleton and clapping her hands with glee................... :lol:

so that's what I was doing.

:blink:

:lol:

I remember it well .. ...George's girlfriend wanted to try celibacy. He ended up gettin' back in the game w/ a Portugese waitress.

I can picture Elaine in her long brown winter coat in front of the tire store, clapping black-gloved hands w/ that moronic glee. :lol:

Susie? Tri-tip? Good? Edible?

Why am I so blah again today? Yesterday seemed to be SO on the upswing.

:(

Did I see Patti & Susie say they have curly hair??

Curly haired and right handed, here-- strongly-- right armed, right legged, and definitely right eared!

Both of my boys are right handed, but Brian started out as a leftie... he saw all the other five-year-olds writing with their right hands, though, and switched!

yes, curly hair here. and I LOATHE it - - just want long, silky tresses....... :angry:

Tri tip was VERY good! So easy - put it on the grill, flip it once, and go get it when you remember it. :lol: Weezee had NEVER EVER been so interested in being outside at night - - I've never barbecued while living in this house (three years) and she was out of her dingo-addled mind........kept revisiting the area of the exquisite smell.......in and out and in and out, long after the meat was in the fridge, the look on her face a mix of joy, pleasure, loss and pain all at once. :lol:

These bad days........ :( so heinous......I've had several in a row lately and feel sooooooooooo tired, so dull, so flat and worthless.........I don't know what's up (save for today) but I do clearly know I'm not being as careful w/ food as in the past.

Yes....mine has been "relaxed" for the past couple of years but I'm seriously thinking of stopping that and wearing it natural again. Too much wear and tear on the ol' mane B) Of course, this plan will entail a substantial haircut......what to do???? :huh:

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      By catnapt · Posted

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
