Yes......we seem to have earned a magic, much-coveted immunity from punishment o'er here in Sillyville. Methinks they see a "Tickle Me Elbow" post coming in, they roll their eyes and mutter, "Aw, gawd, it's just one of them... ... push it through...... ..no one ever knows what in hell they're talking about anyway"........ :lol:

IMO this is a public board and talking about other members in this thread, or making fun of someone who believe's differently, is something I don't agree with and I realize I am in the minority on that.

It was cloudy most of the day and began raining lightly about an hour ago.

I was just cruising the other threads and noticed that there are three first time posters...all around the same time........that give very brief answers and have web links in their signatures. One of them doesn't even answer the question.......just pushes his site.

Lisa,

There's been a lot of that lately--people spamming the board but doing so in established threads. Very sneaky....swoop in after the topic is pinned <_<

Could you let me know which threads these are? Thanks :)

Morning Sillies....well here we are!!! Patti the sun is shining bright today.

I am getting ready to eat a breakfast my MIL made, she made homemade blueberry blintzes, gluten free. John and I did some grilling last night and we made this greek chicken which was pretty good.

So I have this 2-hr training session today from 11-1....boring is all I can say!

Morning, Sillies!

Gosh, I hope we see Jules today.

Alex, you really are an amazing woman in her twenties.....Hell, I cannot see me ever being as self-aware as you are, and I'm now into my forties!

I sat with my best friend a few years ago, holding her hand and crying with her after her son was diagnosed with autism....we both were talking about the vaccination that he had received a year before, and how the symptoms began shortly afterward. Incredible how these possibilities exist - - that perhaps these medications could affect some people so profoundly, and forever. Julie mentioned how ill she became after a vaccine, as well....very sobering, frightening stuff.

But I digress! I'm on the bleedin' Silly thread, for heaven's sake! What got into me?....... :rolleyes:

Hold up your index finger and place it at the side of your nostril, curled up fingers facing forward, then twist hand downward.

I think that it's after moments like these that we appreciate the snippits of Sillie all the more :)

I just burned--no, incenerated--bacon in my microwave. Trying to do two things at once <_< ......it even put a burn mark on me plate :angry: It smells really gross in here right now (scrunchedupyukkysmellface).

Yeah--Amanda, it was raining when I got up at 6, but all sunny now B) Sorry 'bout the boring stuff today.

I got to rant here.....

Let me just phirst! say that my coworkers and I have really pulled together and finally became that team with the bond....which some of you know I struggled with the acceptance and pressures of my peers at work....

Anyway so we assumed this training was something we were logging on to the computer to do..well after some conphusion yesterday @ 4 when the training coordinate had left for the day, a phew of us were still wondering of a few details this morning. Turns out it was yours truly who ran into this person first thing this morning...well, I said to her our coworker was wondering about getting the projector and computer and such...and her words to me were "Amanda there is training today in room 1832, you would know that but you were the only one who did not respond to the email.... :huh: Alright...I don't appreciate the attuitude at 8 in the morning....jeez I barely had time to catch my breath from walking in the door and she comes in and literally does a Power Phart??? What gives?

So I check around and my other cohorts did not respond either....so this woman is just ranting to rant I guess?

So then I felt bad because I had gotten Susan all conflustered and confuzzled...well the woman who was ranting was like I cannot believe Susan was confused I gave her all the instructions...I am like look we were the ones giving her mixed info its not her fault...

I understand sometimes, Susan is not the brightest bulb in the tanning bed but this time she was not in the wrong!

I had to let that out.....

I think our Little Miss Attitude should take some high dose laxatives and poop all her mean genes away!!!!

Lisa, you can hit the report button when you see something. It let's you write a note about that person's particular post. You can preface it with an "I'm not sure this is a problem . . ." kind of lead it if you aren't for sure. It goes to the moderators and then they can check it out and decide if it is actionable or not. The person in question doesn't know who is the one that reported them either.

      Dang......did it again and yeah I should admit I am 63 with clumsy phone thumbs. I started feeling better quickly and a doctor a year later said I had to eat  poison (gluten) every day for a month so he could formally diagnose me and NO FREAKING WAY. I couldn't then and can't imagine putting my body through that crap (no pun intended) on purpose ever again.  Why ingest poison for a month to have some doctor say Hey, All you Have To Do Is Never Eat poison Again..

      15 years ago my best friend 'diagnosed' me as Celiac. Her little nephew had been formally diagnosed and her observations of me dealing with brain fog, stomach problems and other stuff had her convincing me to try going gluten free. Oh my heavens, within 3 days, no lie, I felt human again. Took me about a y
    • Scott Adams
      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.
