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.

Anyone else notice?........

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.

Alex- I also wanted to add, that based on your posts, you have a lot of compassion, maybe it's just not the first thing out of your mouth...

      It could be a fructan intolerance? How do you do with dates?  https://www.dietvsdisease.org/sorry-your-gluten-sensitivity-is-actually-a-fructan-intolerance/

      Thank’s for addressing the issue of mushrooms.  I was under the impression that only wild mushrooms were gluten-free.  Have been avoiding cultivated mushrooms for years. Also, the issue of smoked food was informative.  In France last year, where there is hardly any prepared take-out food that is gluten-free, I tried smoked chicken.  Major mistake!

      my IGG is 815 IGA 203  but tTG-Iga is   <0.4!!!!!!!!!!!!!   oh my god- 13 days of agony and the test is negative?  I don't even know what to do next. There zero doubt in my mind that I have an issue with wheat and probably more so with gluten as symptoms are dramatically worse the more gluten a product has   I am going to write up the history of my issues for the past few years and start a food/symptom diary to bring with me to the GI doctor in March.   I googled like crazy to try to find out what other things might cause these symptoms and the only thing that truly fits besides celiac is NCGS   but I guess there are some other things I maybe should be tested for ...? like SIBO?   I will continue to eliminate any foods that cause me distress (as I have been doing for the past couple of years) and try to keep a record. Can anyone recommend an app or some form or something that would simplify this? I have a very full and busy life and taking the time to write out each symptom name in full would be tedious and time consuming- some sort of page with columns to check off would be ideal. I am not at all tech savvy so that's not something I can make myself ... I'm hoping there's some thing out there that I can just download and print out   do I give up on testing for celiac with such a low number? I am 70 yrs old I have been almost completely off gluten for the most part for about 2 yrs. I had a meal of vital wheat gluten vegan roast,  rolls and stuffing made from home baked bread and an apple pie- and had the worst pain and gas and bloating and odd rumblings in my gut etc - almost went to the ER it was so bad. I was thinking, since I'm spilling a lot of calcium in my urine, that perhaps this was a kidney stone (never had one before but there's always that first time, right?)    Saw my endo on Jan 20th and after hearing the story about the symptoms from eating that holiday meal, she suggested doing a gluten challenge. She said 2 weeks was fine- she said stopping it in the middle if symptoms got bad was fine- In the meantime I'd read that 2 weeks was not enough- called and argued with the nurse about this, but ultimately decided to stop the gluten on the 13th day and get the test done because I was in too much pain and almost suicidal and knew I could not continue.   so.............. that's where I am now I have had no bread since Sunday. I did have some rolled oats today and had some gas and bloating afterwards I did have some wheat germ in a smoothie on Tuesday and had a stomach ache later that night.   but overall I feel so much better! all the joint pain is gone! the nausea is gone. The stomach pain and gas and bloating are going away. Still a bit gassy but no more of that horrible odor. wow, that would clear a room if I was out in public!  I see a GI nurse March 4th  I hope she'll be able to help sort this out! can you think of what my next steps might be?

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.
