YaY Alex and Congrats!!!! Now don't you be telling us too much about the wedding night . . . you know how easily we're shocked and don't like to share information about ourselves!!!!

I'll be the first 'merican to ask . . . What is May 2-4? Some sort of drinking holiday? Get drunk then set off fireworks?? Sounds like a grand plan.

Mrs. Alex somethin' is back!!!!!!!! :) :)

Glad your day was that great. :)

Congrats!

So . . . I'm a righty with straight hair and I do like math. Spelling on the other hand has always been my nemesis.

Oh sure .. . .as she correctly spells nemisis nemesis.

One more in the Math column!! :D

And if I'm not back before the weekend, happy May 2-4 to my fellow Canadian sillies. Since we're all diabetic I guess none of us will be drinking a 2-4. Either of you doing fireworks?

Now THIS I gotta hear more about!!

It's a drink? A day? Not the 2nd thru the 4th? The 24th? No .. .that's not this wkend .. ... :confuzzledface:

Every holiday up here is a drinking holiday! The grandest of plans, to be sure..... :lol:B)

We celebrate Queen Victoria's birthday on the third Monday In May, and it makes up a three-day weekend. We call our cases of 24 beers a two-four, and this weekend is May two-four, even though there is no connection to beer, and it rarely falls on May 24th. Yeah I know.....Only in Canada...... :rolleyes::lol:

Jack's next query is most interesting: He wants to know who the most interesting character is when you google your own name.

Nothing too exciting when I google my name....a realtor, an author, an employee suing Pepsi. When I google my birth name I get a musician and an artist who does mostly silly cats. Now those are people I can relate to :D

When my mom was choosing a name for me before I was born, she liked the name of the Playboy centerfold :P for January of the year I was born. She had never before seen the name LISA. The only Lisa's I have met have been younger than me.

(wondering how old I am aren'tcha?)

Congratulations to Alex, sounds like you had a lovely day!

Tom and Susie sorry about your struggles and Laura on the new med, you guys must feel better soon!!!! And no Bev sighting?? I am afraid that means she isn't feeling so good either :(

I just got my allergy test results back and I'll have to totally change up my Edna :rolleyes::rolleyes:

Oh, and I googled my name, the most exciting thing that came up was a character in a mystery novel :lol:

on a serious note.............Sillies, I don't think my Effexor is working at all. :( wondering if I should switch.......

I know I'm new around here, but how long have you been on Effexor? My DD used to be on that....and several others at different times. Many of the ones she tried worked at first, but after a while became ineffective. She hated to keep changing and was sure nothing would ever work. She's been doing really well for over a year, but I don't know what it is she's been on. I'll have to ask.

BTW, what kind of jewelry do you make?

Morning, Sillies!

I went walking in a big, overgrown expanse of field near our house last night, and there is an active train track at one end. Trains rarely come by - - it's usually at night and we'll hear it's long, plaintive whistle (there is nothing like that sound) and the engine rumbling quietly....Anyways, last night I heard it coming in the distance. Well, you should have seen Elsie! I thought she would be terrified, as she is shy and gentle, but the train began to chug by in the distance and her ears perked up, she stared, and was gone! Racing full kilter after it like it was a huge metal rabbit. After I stopped laughing, and regarded Gus who was trotting happily in her wake, saying to himself, "for Gawd's sake...it's a bloody train! Save this for a groundhog", I yelled at her to come back, which she did. Promptly. Too phunny.... :D

I Googled my name, and came up empty :huh:

Patti! I'm so disappointed for you! By all means, take one of Ptaoughmn's...did he have any circus performers in his list? :lol:

Instead, all the little stuffed animals, have beds, pillows, covers, capes, scarves, tents, you name it, they've got it and its made out of Kleenex!!!

on a serious note.............Sillies, I don't think my Effexor is working at all. :( wondering if I should switch.......but you know something? I loathe the idea of going to dr. to ask for something else, admitting defeat, thereby admitting that the gluten-free diet is NOT the complete cure for depression, as I have declared it is.....

but my thoughts and brain are so awful and dark, and I feel completely hollowed-out and dull beyond belief. :(

Susie, what dose are you on now? I was on 75 mg daily, and as you know I recently had to increase it. I'm at 150 mg daily now, and feeling much better. I had been on 150 before, and eventually dropped it down. I had been at 75 for about a year and a half.

I definitely think these things have to be adjusted every so often, whether it be dosage or trying something new!!!

Gotta run for now, but I'm going to Google myself later. (That almost sounds dirty.)

Amanda! You are about to make what perhaps could be judged a big flipover (4500)....Perhaps we get skin irritations at the smaller flipovers once we get high enough, and the fluid deluges at the thousand-marks. Susie, did you hit a 500-flipover when you went to the cabin? These rules could change throughout the duration of this thread, so we must be ready. Perhaps King Peter has been briefed on such matters....

      @Scatterbrain, What supplements are you taking? I agree that the problem may be nutritional deficiencies. It's worth talking to a dietician or nutritionist about.

      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
