Mygawd...there are a whole slew of us posting.....what in hell do we all have to say? :lol:

Jess, that is a beautiful little boy! The accent does sound somewhat English, but perhaps more Afrikkaner (Southern Africa - - slight Dutch lilt)......hmmmmmm....tres interessant.....

Put your dog and your wife in the trunk of the car for an hour.

When you open the trunk, who is really happy to see you?

:lol::lol: Great one, Janet

Sarah, being is a mom is so hard. Bless you for trying so hard. Sounds like your such a good mom.

I absolutely second this, Judy.... ..so well said. Your kids are so lucky to have you, Sarah! :wub::)

Are yer saying it right Susie??? :unsure:

(she pronounces it wrong you know :rolleyes: )

Nicola! Souzzle has put out yer name with the stress on the first syllable. Could it be in the unusual, fetching positon of second syllable? Ni-CO-la.....

Or p'raps you were catching the long vowel sound on the first syllable, when it should be short.....Ni-cola, not Nee-cola.

Mygawd.....how boring. :lol: Please ignore the last ramble. Me and my schwa, diphthong, cadence obsession.....

I believe it depends on what nationality she's masquerading as. I would say Ni CO la sounds Italian, while NI cola comes off as Greek. Equal stresses, hmm, maybe seductive French NI CO LA? And Nico LA? Russian?

Excellent - - but if you did it in Fresno in July, they'd, um, both be DEAD :blink:

:lol::lol: Here too, or anywhere in the dead of summer.....OMG, makes me think about all the idiots that leave their pets or kids in a car for a long period of time.

Boris - poor wee kitty. I don't really like vaccines for pets - - I do rabies and that's about it - - Tika, after her cancer treatment, never had a shot again - and she lived ELEVEN whole years after chemo, in superb health!

I don't either, my Palmer got so very sick and reacted to the vaccines the first few ones he had so after that I no longer vaccinated him.

You guys wanna hear something incredibly stupid? :ph34r:

I took the bag out of the fridge today and put on me reading glasses and saw the warning--made on the dreaded shared equipment as wheat.

Does anyone think this may have contributed to the elevated liver enzymes? One was slightly high right before I was diagnosed, and went back to normal by 6 months gluten-free.

I'm really embarassed :ph34r:

Patti, don't beat yourself up, this is really easy for any of us to do. They are changing labels all the time and being more specific about labeling if there are shared lines or shared facilities, you would think plain nuts would be safe so i understand you not giving it a second thought.

I guess it could contribute to the elevated liver enzymes :huh: Can you talk to your Dr about it?

What she said.

Wouldn't you rather have your problems attributable to a momentary lapse in diligence, rather than some body part staging a rebellion?

Hee hee--I'm back after me tirade! :lol:

I just told Mark on the phone--he was really nice and just said that it's better I found out late than never. :)

Anywho.....

Jess--that little Riley is adorable, and does have a bit of an accent. :D And you're right about the rebellion--the timing is just too perfect.....

Julie :wub:

Sarah! Hope ya'll get to the library for some cool, quiet time :)

Mygawd, Patti, I can't tell you the number of times this has happened to me.....I'm fairly lazy about re-reading labels, much to my peril, it would seem. Incredible to me is the number of companies who suddenly decide to put wheat in their products. :angry::angry:

I believe it depends on what nationality she's masquerading as. I would say Ni CO la sounds Italian, while NI cola comes off as Greek. Equal stresses, hmm, maybe seductive French NI CO LA? And Nico LA? Russian?

Yep. Canadian would be the addition of an entire new syllable......Nicola-eh.

:rolleyes:

So, MIL flew off last evening.

Hmm......now, which emoticons to choose.. . ...?

OMG.....We should do this. We should start a thread and call it just that: Ednazone - - for those who need help with Edna. Can you picture the expressions on all the non-Sillies' faces?

:huh::huh::huh:

Who is Edna?? Is she a new, troublesome forum member? Have I read her posts? Is she inappropriate or profane??

Then they would pause for only a moment, and slowly shake their heads...."Ah......but of course. It's those individuals on THAT thread".............

Sarah- (((((((((((Hugs))))))))). I think you sound a lot like my mom -she would have sat up with me ALL night if I needed her.And the withdrawal you are going through sounds BRUTAL. I've heard people describe this and it sounds so terrible. Wish we could come down, open a bottle of wine and hire someone to massage your feet! :wub: :wub: :wub: You can ALWAYS vent here.

Bunk beds :lol: :lol:

I always think it such a waste when one has some innocuous internal thing removed, such as a gallbladder, tonsils, appendix, stones of whatever sort.....being an artist, I will always see everything as a possible piece of work.

Patti, if you have your gb removed, ask for it....you could have it incorporated into a sculpture that forever evolves, grows and changes. :blink::lol:

Em, you so crazy!!!!!!!!! I asked for my gall stones and they said NO :angry: I wanted to put them on a necklace :lol: :lol:

Patteigh! My friend in San Jose had elevated liver enzymes for a full decade - - drove her insane - and she is about as puritanical and healthy as you can get (LITERALLY takes about - four aspirins a YEAR - very light drinker, VERY healthy eater, etc.)....

NIcola sent the phunniest email of my life..........'twas a full recounting of her day................

NEEK-oh-lahhhhhhhhhhh...............asking permission to publish here, please :lol: :lol:

Patti I hope all goes well- and Suze, hope Weezie is OK too. Mine have randomly gone up before and then back down. I'm telling ya, I think we all have the weirdest bodies. Could we be our own species? Homo Psillius?

The science guy at the library today was a MAD Scientist!!! He was hilarious, and at the end, he said, "So! Science is BORING, RIGHT???" All those kids screamed "NO!" so loudly, it rattled the windows. :D Mommy is pleased.

I made dairy-free corn dogs for lunch today. At first, I was flummoxed as to how to make the batter without milk... Then I just said, "Phark it, ya make polenta with water, what's the worst that could happen?" (I didn't really say phark- I'm kind of a potty mouth. :ph34r: ) They turned out fine. The coating was a little more delicate than normal, but tasted pretty much the same.

Going to attempt df pizza tonight. My crust recipe is df already, and I happen to have some df "mozzarella" that I bought as a just-in-case... I gotta hunt down a pizza sauce recipe, though... all I have is a can of tomato paste. I'm pretty sure I can do something to it to turn it into sauce... :huh:

      @catnapt, Wheat germ has very little gluten in it. Gluten is the carbohydrate storage protein, what the flour is made from, the fluffy part. Just like with beans, there's the baby plant that will germinate ("germ"-inate) if sprouted, and the bean part is the carbohydrate storage protein.

      Raising you vitamin D will increase absorption of calcium automatically without supplementation of calcium.  A high PTH can be caused by low D causing poor calcium absorption; not insuffient calcium intake.  With low D your body is not absorbing calcium from your food so it steals it from your bones.  Heart has priority over bone. I've been taking 10,000 IU D3 a day since 2015.  My doctor says to continue. To fix my lactose intolerance, lots of lactobacillus from yogurts, and brine fermented pickles and saurkraut and olives.  We lose much of our ability to make lactase endogenosly with maturity but a healthy colony of lactobacillus in our gut excretes lactase in exchange for room and board. The milk protein in grass fed milk does not bother me. It tastes like the milk I grew up on.  If I drink commercial milk I get heartburn at night. Some experts estimate that 90% of us do not eat Adequite Intake of choline.  Beef and eggs are the principle source. Iodine deficiency is a growing concern.  I take 600 mcg a day of Liquid Iodine.  It and NAC have accelerated my healing all over.  Virtually blind in my right eye after starting antihypertensive medication and vision is slowly coming back.  I had to cut out starches because they drove my glucose up into the 200+ range.  I replaced them with Red Bull for the glucose intake with the vitamins, minerals and Taurine needed to process through the mitochodria Krebs Cycle to create ATP.  Went from A1c 13 down to 7.9.  Work in progress. Also take B1,B2,B3,B5,B6. Liquid Iodine, Phosphatidyl Choline, Q10, Selenium, D and DHEA.     Choline supplemented as phosphatidylcholine decreases fasting and postmethionine-loading plasma homocysteine concentrations in healthy men +

Luckily you still have time to do a proper gluten challenge (10 grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks) before your next appointment when you can be retested.

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Hello, @asaT, I'm curious to know whether you are taking other B vitamins like Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3.  Malabsorption in Celiac disease affects all the water soluble B vitamins and Vitamin C.  Thiamine and Niacin are required to produce energy for all the homocysteine lowering reactions provided by Folate, Cobalamine and Pyridoxine.   Weight gain with a voracious appetite is something I experienced while malnourished.  It's symptomatic of Thiamine B1 deficiency.   Conversely, some people with thiamine deficiency lose their appetite altogether, and suffer from anorexia.  At different periods on my lifelong journey, I suffered this, too.   When the body doesn't have sufficient thiamine to turn food, especially carbohydrates, into energy (for growth and repair), the body rations what little thiamine it has available, and turns the carbs into fat, and stores it mostly in the abdomen.  Consuming a high carbohydrate diet requires additional thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  Simple carbohydrates (sugar, white rice, etc.) don't contain thiamine, so the body easily depletes its stores of Thiamine processing the carbs into fat.  The digestive system communicates with the brain to keep eating in order to consume more thiamine and other nutrients it's not absorbing.   One can have a subclinical thiamine insufficiency for years.  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function, so the symptoms can wax and wane mysteriously.  Symptoms of Thiamine insufficiency include stunted growth, chronic fatigue, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi (diarrhea, abdominal pain), heart attack, Alzheimer's, stroke, and cancer.   Thiamine improves bone turnover.  Thiamine insufficiency can also affect the thyroid.  The thyroid is important in bone metabolism.  The thyroid also influences hormones, like estrogen and progesterone, and menopause.  Vitamin D, at optimal levels, can act as a hormone and can influence the thyroid, as well as being important to bone health, and regulating the immune system.  Vitamin A is important to bone health, too, and is necessary for intestinal health, as well.   I don't do dairy because I react to Casein, the protein in dairy that resembles gluten and causes a reaction the same as if I'd been exposed to gluten, including high tTg IgA.  I found adding mineral water containing calcium and other minerals helpful in increasing my calcium intake.   Malabsorption of Celiac affects all the vitamins and minerals.  I do hope you'll talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing all eight B vitamins and the four fat soluble vitamins because they all work together interconnectedly.

The D3 does have coconut oil but it is non GMO, it is Gluten free, Soy free, Soybean free and Safflower oil free.  I have a cupboard full of supplements that did not agree with me -  I just keep trying and have finally settled on Sports Research. I take NAKA Women's Multi full spectrum, and have not felt sick after taking 2 capsules per day -  it is a Canadian company. I buy both from Amazon. I wish you well in your searching, I know how discouraging it all is. Florence.

      highly unlikely  NOTHING and I mean NOTHING else has ever caused me these kinds of symptoms I have no problem with dates, they are a large part of my diet In fact, I eat a very high fiber, very high vegetable and bean diet and have for many years now. It's considered a whole foods plant based or plant forward diet (I do now eat some lean ground turkey but not much) I was off dairy for years but recently had to add back plain yogurt to meet calcium needs that I am not allowed to get from supplements (I have not had any problem with the yogurt)   I eat almost no processed foods. I don't eat out. almost everything I eat, I cook myself I am going to keep a food diary but to be honest, I already know that it's wheat products and also barley that are the problem, which is why I gradually stopped eating and buying them. When I was eating them, like back in early 2024, when I was in the middle of moving and ate out (always had bread or toast or rolls or a sub or pizza) I felt terrible but at that time was so busy and exhausted that I never stopped to think it was the food. Once I was in my new place, I continued to have bread from time to time and had such horrible joint pain that I was preparing for 2 total knee replacements as well as one hip! The surgery could not go forward as I was (and still am) actively losing calcium from my bones. That problem has yet to be properly diagnosed and treated   anyway over time I realized that I felt better when I stopped eating bread. Back at least 3 yrs ago I noticed that regular pasta made me sick so I switched to brown rice pasta and even though it costs a lot more, I really like it.   so gradually I just stopped buying and eating foods with gluten. I stopped getting raisin bran when I was constipated because it made me bloated and it didn't help the constipation any more (used to be a sure bet that it would in the past)   I made cookies and brownies using beans and rolled oats and dates and tahini and I LOVE them and have zero issues eating those I eat 1 or more cans of beans per day easily can eat a pound of broccoli - no problem! Brussels sprouts the same thing.   so yeh it's bread and related foods that are clearly the problem  there is zero doubt in my mind
