You've all collectively gotten together to drag me mind into the gutter. There is no other explanation. :angry:

Exactly!! Someone else is ALWAYS responsible. That's why people gather in groups, not for companionship, it's to be certain there's someone around to get you off the hook

:rolleyes:

Y'all are crackin' me up :lol:

Mygawd.....if we were gonna photo shop some other boobs, I think we would have gone for Elle MacPherson or Cindy Crawford...... :rolleyes:

Cindy's so much more about the whole sultry package than the boobs. ;)

Let's say Elle or Jessica Alba or Jennifer Aniston or Halle Berry or Brooke Burke or Heather Graham or Courtney Thorne-Smith or Jennifer Love Hewitt (wait . ..are those fake?) or Catherine Bell or old-school it w/ Adrienne Barbeau!!

(lol that took longer than it appears) :lol:

Dimwitted Elisabeth Hasselback? <beck? back?>

:lol: :lol:

<why am I posting this?> :lol:

Oh my gawd. :ph34r:

I've already abashed myself due to my choice of colloquialisms to describe altering a digital photo.

Among mainframe techies, to "massage" data means to manually manipulate it (as opposed to an existing automated process) to get it into the desired form. OMG, "manually manipulate" isn't any better when the topic is a picture of the sort we are discussing. What a boob I must be. :blink: I should have said that I would alter the characteristics of the photo to reduce the total file size. B):lol:

Well there you go---------I don't speak that language.........thus............my mind goes to the gutter :ph34r:

I should have said that I would alter the characteristics of the photo to reduce the total file size. B):lol:

Yes, but then we wouldn't have all this fun. :ph34r:

If you and Tom aren't on line this weekend.......we'll know where to find you.........in the sock isle at Walmarts. ;)

Got some good news today! My mom had a chest x-ray yesterday, and already got the results today-- it looked clear! This is amazing, because something like 95%+ of Sarcoidosis patients have lesions on the lungs. She's apparently one of that tiny percentage that doesn't.

She still needs to have her eyes checked out, and possibly an EKG... but this is a very positive, encouraging start! :D

tom Contributor

Great news Sarah!! :) :)

And hardy-har-har Judy :lol:

YAY!!

Finally one less thing for you to worry about. You've had more than your share recently. Send the next problem over to LisaGoosey's soon-to-be-ex daughter's mother-in-law.

OUT TO EAT MAYBE 6 TIMES IN 3 YEARS

THIS IS THE 'SILLY' THREAD.............I HAVE TO FIND ME SOME .........SILLY............ :ph34r:

Jestgar Rising Star

well, my roomie has officially been sworn in as a US citizen. I ran into him on the boat as he was returning from the ceremony so I got to watch the whole, slow, dawning of realization that his whole life had changed and he suddenly had options that he had never had before. It was kind of fun.

I took him out to Red Robins (learned unfortunate new things about what I can can't eat) and I haven't seen him since. I suspect last night his work buddies took him out, and now he's at work. He's probably bruised from being slapped on the back so many times (why do men hit to show pleasure?). Maybe this'll take his mind off the fact that everything he owns is covered in fur....

You'll be fine, especially if your bring your own salad. The worst part will be realizing how much the price of a movie has gone up in 10 years :P

Just get an aisle seat, so you don't feel restrained.

Well pholks, I'm back from my ultrasound and the preliminary news is good! :D

Liver looks clear and not fatty (which is more than I can say fer the rest of me :lol: )--no gallstones, just a harmless-looking polyp. The technician was so nice and said that there was nothing there that would cause elevated enzymes :blink: Radiologist will see it on Monday.

I maintain it was the weeks of constant low level glutening. Who knows?

Em--what did you decide to do to hoist the girls fer the wedding? :P

Jess--good news about yer room mate :)

Did ya'll notice that Pataughmn, quiet as of late, snapped back into action with the talk of boobalicious women last night? :lol:

PeOter--I had a feeling that "massage" had some kind of technical meaning as well--but as I said, "megapixel" is about as technical as I get. Too phunny, though! :lol:

It's going up to 96 today :o

Uncle Ray has gone blooming mad:

The Suits

A man who just died is delivered to a local mortuary wearing an expensive, expertly tailored black suit.

The female blonde mortician asks the deceased's wife how she would like the body dressed. She points out that the man does look good in the black suit he is already wearing.

The widow, however, says that she always thought her husband looked his best in blue, and that she wants him in a blue suit. She gives the Blonde mortician a blank check and says, 'I don't care what it costs, but please have my husband in a blue suit for the viewing.'

The woman returns the next day for the wake. To her delight, she finds her husband dressed in a gorgeous blue suit with a subtle chalk stripe; the suit fits him perfectly.

She says to the mortician, 'Whatever this cost, I'm very satisfied. You did an excellent job and I' m very grateful. How much did you spend?' To her astonishment, the blonde mortician presents her with the blank check.

'There's no charge,' she says.

'No, really, I must compensate you for the cost of that exquisite blue suit!' she says.

'Honestly, ma'am,' the blonde says, 'it cost nothing. You see, a deceased gentleman of about your husband's size was brought in shortly after you left yesterday, and he was wearing an attractive blue suit. I asked his wife if she minded him going to his grave wearing a black suit instead, and she said it made no difference as long as he looked nice.'

'So I just switched the heads.'

(BET YOU DIDN'T SEE THAT COMIN!!!)

      Hey all  Has anyone on here experienced any of the following on their basic metabolic panel results ? This is what mine is currently flagging : - low sodium  - nearly too low potassium - nearly too low chloride - high CO2  - low anion gap  This is now after being nearly gluten-free for over a year (although I admit I make mistakes sometimes and pay dearly for it). My TtG went down to undetectable. I was so sensitive to so many foods I am now avoiding meat dairy and don’t eat a lot of cooked food in general (raw veggies, white rice, avocados and boiled eggs are my usual go-to meal that doesn’t make me sick). But my abdomen still hurts, i have a range of other symptoms too (headaches that last for days before letting up, fatigue, joint pain, bladder pain). Anyway im hoping my urologist (that’s now the latest specialist I’ve seen on account of the bladder pain and cloudy urine after eating certain foods) will help me with this since he ordered this metabolic panel. But I’m bouncing around a lot between specialists and still not sure what’s wrong. Also went back to the GI doctor and she thought maybe the celiac is just not healed or I have something else going on in the colon and I should have that looked at too. I’m still anemic too BTW. And I’m taking sooo may vitamins daily.

      I know I haven't been tested but self diagnosed that by avoiding gluten the past 7 months I feel so much better. I have followed how to eat and avoid gluten and have been good about hidden gluten in products, how to prep gluten-free and flours to use to bake gluten-free and have been very successful. It has been a learning curve but once you get the hang of it and more aware you realize how many places are gluten-free and contamination free practices etc. One thing I have read is how soy is like gluten. How would one know if soy affects you? I have eaten gluten free hershey reeses that say gluten free etc some other snacks say gluten free but contain soy and I dont get sick or soy yogurt no issues. Is there adifference in soys?

      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/

      I am taking a multivitamin which is pretty bolstered with B’s.  Additional Calcium, D3, Magnesium, Vit C, and Ubiquinol.  Started Creapure creatine monohydrate in June for athletic recovery and brain fog.  I have been working with a Nutritionist along side my Dr. since February.  My TTG IGA levels in January were 52.8 and my DGP IGA was >250 (I don’t know the exact number since it was so high).  All my other labs were normal except Sodium and Chloride which were low.  I have more labs coming up in Dec.  I make my own bread, and don’t eat a lot of processed gluten-free snacks.
    • knitty kitty
      @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.   Did you get a Marsh score at your diagnosis?  Was your tTg IgA level very high?  These can indicate more intestinal damage and poorer absorption of nutrients.   Are you eating processed gluten free food stuffs?  Have you looked into the Autoimmune Protocol Diet?
