. . . problem is, they're are NOT the best readers. Just think of how they would try to pronounce all those different spellings of Tghawm.

But hey, you'd be providing that ever-desirable teaching moment, as well as the opportunity for those Cubs to practise their famous motto: "Always be ready!" One never knows when one will need to pronounce or spell such names as Ptaoughymnmn, or such words as eigen vector or dominatrix. Janet, this is bound to get you back in as assistant den leader - - perhaps put you right in the leadership role! :rolleyes:

Are either of you gonna offer an explanation so I can stop trying to figure out what they mean by 'decompose a matrix'???

Gad....I did not even know that "decompose" could be an active verb, let alone how in hell one would do it to a matrix.....

:huh::lol:

OMG - Ptauoghoiuoiehghhlmmmmmmmmmmm :lol: summoned me and here I am!!!!!!!!!!!

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?

Hi Lisa, and others of you who have asked about my med - -

you know.....I think I've been on this Effexor for - between two and three years, maybe longer?!! It could be almost four years.

I do think it's time for a change..........I feel SOOOOOOOOOOO tired and heavy and - even as though breathing is a struggle - that is just part of what physical depression feels like to me. :( So - I have an appt. tomorrow w/ doctor. I am so relieved, because I can just SO tell that........thing's aren't right. They're certainly not as bad as they CAN get - - but I'm not going to let things get that far.

When all I want to do is sleep and sleep........and I start thinking that I am worthless and things are way too hard (and worse thoughts than that - I'll spare the details).....I must pay attention.

Sarah - I have been on 150 mg. of Effexor.......which used to work. I am going to switch to someting entirely different as there are some side effects on this drug that I'm tired of.

So - had lunch w/ Kissey today at our fave Mexican restaurant. He is so precious - a tremendous gift to my life and very supportive. Doesn't need me to be anything right now except around him. :wub:

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....

Em - I love the visual of the big, leggy poodle chasing the train :lol:

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....

:o OMG - do rashes count? why - I should think yes - - the poison oak rash really oozes after a while. :ph34r: certainly fluids with that........

dear gawd - I see that I'm approaching 4000 posts..................... HOLD TIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :huh:

Ahh! Both my kids have experienced this - - very contagious, and known as "Fifth's Disease", and I cannot remember why....

Amanda! this rash............Fifth's Disease.......prolly because you might get this rash after a regular and constant consumption of fifths of vodka er sumfin? :lol:

SARAH - Ezra on steroids..............zoigs!!!!!!!!!! :blink: The benadryl is a bit fatigue-ing, thank God.

Gads, trying to understand principle component analysis and Eigen vectors. I'm pretty sure if you place the word "theoretical" in front of any subject, that subject should be considered only "theoretically" important. (As in, "I'm theoretically working today").

:blink:

STOP THAT RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!

Hmmmm . . . yes, this could be a good way of getting out of being assistant den leader next year . . . problem is, they're are NOT the best readers. Just think of how they would try to pronounce all those different spellings of Tghawm.

:lol: absolutely brilliant idea..............

<ahem>

Ps-ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww- pzeyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!

YoooooOOOOOhoooooooooo

:lol: :lol: :lol: LURVE the spelling

There was a newbie reading earlier........poor thing :(

:lol: :lol: dat's funny!!!!!!!!!!!!

sillies - I am goign to be a Loser and succumb to the desire to be on the couch. :ph34r:

It is WAY too hot where you and Psiouxsie live- I insist you move to Massachusetts toot sweet!

Oh my Goodness Sarah!!!! Poor Ez . . . at least it doesn't seem to be bothering him too much. When my son was on prednisone and bouncing off the walls at the docs office once, I mentioned in passing to another mother that he was going to survive the illness but I was going to have to kill him because of his behavioUr. She remarked "that's how I feel when my kids are on steriods" . . . and she didn't even know he was on it . . . :lol::lol: Yep, get that boy to the allergist, stat!!! It took me two months to get in to see one so make an appointment soon!!!

Oh sarah- this kid is a trooper!!!!!! Poor little guy!

Well???

Are either of you gonna offer an explanation so I can stop trying to figure out what they mean by 'decompose a matrix'???

do i have to get the whip out...

Uhm...judging by your new av, yes- GET THE WHIP OUT BABY!!!!!!!!!!!! fabio wants you to use it on him STAT!!!!!!!!

Must go build ark- Steve Carrell and Morgan Freeman have shown up. It is going to rain here for the next week!!!!!!!! Fine by me.......easier to nap when you don't feel like you are missing a sunny day! Susie- Come on over!!!!!!!!!! Bring that cute dingo (Angus's nickname went from Dingus to Dingy to Dingy Ding Ding Ding- she'll fit right in!!)

OK....here's the bad news. I found what I THINK is a tick bite (yes- bull's eye rash).......but you won't believe where......left boob!!!!!!! what, did the little bacteria sucker crawl in my bra? PERVERT! I see doctor tomorrow first thing.....uhm...at least I'm on antibiotics???????

OMG Bev--not another tick!!!!! :o:angry::angry::angry:

They just love you--the nasty little buggers....I guess at least all the antibiotics you're on will kill anything before it gets a chance to get a foothold. If there's one thing you don't need..... <_< You poor thing.

Well guys, I might not be around as much for the next week and a half or so.....I'm letting Matt take my laptop with him on his trip starting tomorrow. I can use his computer, but probably won't be on as much.

Susie, I hope that you can get the antidepressant figured out....whether you need a different dose or another med altogether. Do those possibly lose their effectivness after taking for a long period of time? I don't know, just tossing it out there. One thing to take into consideration is that your chemistry has no doubt changed in the last few years on the diet--maybe something different would be more appropriate now.

This reminds me of a question: Last night DH found a Japanese rice beer at our local beer store called Sapporo. The clerk told us it was gluten-free so he bought a six-pack. I did a bit of reading on it, and the jury is clearly out. It seems to employ barley, but it is altered (?) in the fermenting or cooking process (again, ?) to the point where it should be harmless to us. Anyone know anything? Our Scott says that we should proceed with caution.

Oracle Peter?

May start a new thread on this.....

Sapporo?????????????????????????

I don't think it's any closer to gluten-free than Bud & Michelob are, which are also made of rice instead of wheat.

I don't think healthfood-store-guy knows wtf he's talking about, tho I HAVE heard similar claims before.

P.S. I had to read "beef w/ sushi" 4 or 5x before I realized how close R & F are on the keybd! ;)

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By Jillian83 · Posted

      He is. Which makes everything even more difficult. I’m not a believer in “staying for the kids” but I have nowhere to go and it’s not just me, it’s me plus my babies. We live in a beautiful place, lots of land in the country and me and the kids love the place we’ve called home for their entire lives. But Im seeing that he’ll never change, that my kids deserve a happy healthy Momma, and that staying in this as is will be the early death of me. Then I look at the scars covering my entire body…this disease and the chronic stress I’ve been enduring for years that tell me I’m no longer beautiful and no one will ever look at me with interest again. I try self care, try to give myself grace so I can just start loving myself enough to gain strength but the slightest sparkle in my eye and skip in my step attracts his wrath and it all comes crashing ten fold. Life is just absolutely railing me from every single direction leaving me wanting to wave that white flag bc I don’t feel like there’s much hope no matter what happens.

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By Jillian83 · Posted

      Hi, I was recently diagnosed with Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis after years of suffering without answers. I lost my mind. I lost my job. I lost so much time. I lost Me. Conventional doctors are opulent come near me and the one who did sat across the room, misdiagnosed me, pumped me full of steroids which collapsed my entire hip for 6 months. So without answers I began my holistic journey. Fast forward a couple of years and still struggling with a mysterious whole body itchy, crawling “skin hell”, perfect teeth now deteriorating, thick hair now thinning rapidly and no more than a day or 2 at most relief….An acquaintance opened up a functional medicine practice. Cash only, I found a way. Within a month tests clearly showing my off the charts gluten allergy/sensitivity as well as the depletion of vital nutrients due to leaky gut and intestinal damage. dermatitis herpetiformis was more than likely what I was experiencing with my skin. I was happy. I thought this is easy, eat healthy Whole Foods, follow the diet restrictions and I finally get to heal and feel confident and like myself again very soon! 😔 Supplements are very pricey but I got them and began my healing. Which leads to the other major issue: not working, stay at home Mom of young kids, entirely financially dependent on my man of 7 plus years. He’s never been supportive of anything I’ve ever done or been thru. He controls everything. I’m not given much money ever at a time and when he does leave money it’s only enough to possibly get gas. His excuse is that I’ll spend it on other things. So my “allowance” is inconsistent and has conditions. He withholds money from me as punishment for anything he wants. Since being diagnosed, he’s gained a new control tactic to use as punishment. He now is in control of when I get to eat. He asked for proof of my diagnosis and diet bc he said I made it up just to be able to eat expensive organic foods. Then after I sent him my file from my doctor he then said she wasn’t a real doctor. 😡. I go days upon days starving, sometimes breaking down and eating things I shouldn’t bc I’m so sick then I pay horribly while he gets annoyed and angry bc I’m not keeping up with all the duties I’m supposed to be doing. His abuse turns full on when I’m down and it’s in these desperate times when I need his support and care the most that I’m punished with silence, being starved, ignored, belittled. He will create more of a mess just bc I’m unable to get up and clean so that when I am better, I’m so overwhelmed with chores to catch up that the stress causes me to go right back into a flare from hell and the cycle repeats. I’m punished for being sick. I’m belittled for starving and asking for healthy clean water. I’m purposely left out of his life. He won’t even tell me he’s going to the grocery or to get dinner bc he doesn’t want me to ask him for anything. I have no one. I have nothing. Im not better. My supplements ran out and I desperately need Vitamin D3 and a methylated B complex at the very minimal just to function….he stares at me blankly…no, a slight smirk, no words. He’s happiest when im miserable and I am miserable.  this is so long and im condensing as much as I can but this situation is so complicated and disgusting. And it’s currently my life. The “IT” girl, the healthy, beautiful, perfect skin, perfect teeth, thick and curly locks for days, creative and talented IT girl….now I won’t even leave this house bc Im ashamed of what this has dont to my body, my skin. Im disgusted. The stress is keeping me from healing and I think he knows that and that’s why he continues to keep me in that state. He doesn’t want me confident or successful. He doesn’t want me healed and healthy bc then how would he put the blame of all his problems on me? This journey has been hell and I’ve been in Hell before. I’ve been killed by an ex, I’ve been raped, robbed, held hostage, abused beyond nightmares but the cruelty I’ve experienced from him bc of this disease is the coldest I’ve ever experienced. I’ve wanted to give up. Starving and in tears, desperate…I found a local food pantry in our small town so I reached out just saying I had Celiac and was on hard times. This woman is blessing me daily with prepared gluten free meals, donations, educational info, people who know this disease and how they manage life and the blessings just keep coming. But it’s overwhelming and I feel like I don’t deserve it at all. He just glared and I know he’s going to sabotage it somehow. I don’t even know what to do anymore. I’m so broken and just want peace and healing.

      @Colleen H   I am just curious,  when you were tested for coeliac disease, did the doctors find out if you had any deficiencies? Sometimes muscle pain can be caused by certain deficiencies, for example, magnesium, vitamin D, calcium, and potassium.   Might be worth looking into having some more tests.  Pins and needles can be neuropathy, again caused by deficiencies, such as iron and B12,  which can be reversed if these deficiencies are addressed. In the UK where I live we are usually only tested for iron, B12 and vitamin D deficiencies at diagnosis.   I was very iron anemic and supplementation made a big difference.  B12 was low normal, but in other countries the UK's low normal would be considered a deficiency.  My vitamin D was low normal, and I've been supplementing ever since (when I remember to take it!) My pins and needles definitely started to improve when my known deficiencies were addressed.  My nutritionist also gave me a broad spectrum supplement which really helped, because I suspect I wasn't just deficient in what I mention above but in many other vitamins and minerals.  But a word of warning, don't take iron unless blood tests reveal you actually need it, and if you are taking it your levels must be regularly monitored because too much can make you ill.  (And if you are currently taking iron, that might actually be making your stomach sore - it did mine, so my GP changed my iron supplementation to a gentler form, ferrous gluconate). Lastly, have you been trying to take anything to lessen the pain in your gut?  I get a sore stomach periodically, usually when I've had too much rich food, or when I have had to take an aspirin or certain antibiotics, or after glutening.  When this happens, I take for just a few days a small daily dose of OTC omeprazole.  I also follow a reflux or gastritis diet. There are lots online but the common denominators to these diets is you need to cut out caffeine, alcohol, rich, spicy, acidic food etc and eat small regularly spaced meals.   When I get a sore stomach, I also find it helpful to drink lots of water.  I also find hot water with a few slices of ginger very soothing to sip, or camomile tea.  A wedge pillow at night is good for reflux. Also,  best not to eat a meal 2-3 hours before going to bed. If the stomach pain is getting worse, though, it would be wise to see the doctor again. I hope some of this helps. Cristiana

      Knowing what to do when feeling unwell.

      By Me,Sue · Posted

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed that I feel nauseous after possibly being glutened. I think the thing that I have got better at is knowing what to do when I feel wiped out after a gluten 'episode'. I drink loads of water, and have just started drinking peppermint tea. I also have rehydration powders to drink. I don't feel like eating much, but eventually feel like I need to eat. Gluten free flapjacks, or gluten free cereal, or a small gluten free kids meal are my go to. I am retired, so luckily I can rest, sometimes even going to bed when nothing else works. So I feel that I am getting better at knowing how to try and get back on track. I am also trying to stick to a simpler menu and eat mostly at home so that I can be more confident about what I am eating. THANKS TO THOSE WHO REPLIED ABOUT THE NAUSEA .
