Ok Sillies....I need your prayers for someone else now, besides my poor kitty.

Landen needs your thoughts as well. He is currently at the hospital getting CT scan's done. He took a spill Friday night and hit his poor noggin off the corner of Jen's entertainment unit. I went down and checked him out for her since Becky was watching him, he was laughing and had a goose egg but otherwise fine, Jen was concerned but not overly worried since children do fall. Sunday this poor kid fell over backwards, he is learning to stand and can walk along furniture, well he has been attempting the solo stand and it didnt work out, he hit his head to the floor when he fell. This time Jen was with him. Neither time did he really cry or have any outward symptoms.

Well since Jen has noticed something odd....he seems to trance out. He wont blink and pinching a toe wont even stir him....You can call his name and he wont turn his head....It last sometimes 10-15 seconds. Well he spent the night with us last night, Jen was working. He slept fine, no problems there. Well on the way to the Vets this morning, he did the trance thing to me in the car. I had leaned back to check on him at a red light and he had his ring of keys toy in his mouth and was just sitting there looking off into space, not even chewing it was as if the toy was jus t resting on his lips. He wouldnt move his eyes or even blink as I called his name. I touched his toes nothing and then I waved a loud clangy toy in front of his face that I had up with me, and it was like he was oblivous to everything in his own little world....eventually he turned and looked at me and laughed as if nothing ever happened.

So Jen and I talked and she had not called the Dr thinking she was being overprotective and such and since is a a nurse on the Neuro unit she was just worried she was being paranoid. Well after alking to her Dr and he said it is possible Landen can have a small brain bleed she left for the ER. I heard from her last at 4 since they wanted to do a round of other tests....I just tried her again and got a voicemail, so I am hoping to at least get a text back.

So please add him to our prayer/thoughts list.

From Aunt Amanda and his Uncle John!!!

Thanks guys!

Oh My God Amanda...........will be glad to see this day come to a end............

I'm sure your all so worried.

Of course I'll be praying for Landen and all that love him

I'm glad he's in the hosptial and they are checking this out.

It's always better to rule on the 'safe' side I think

Love Hugs and Prayers.

Judy

Poor Lucky....that's what Allo had, an intestinal blockage, when he had to have the IV fluids. He passed it on his own with the help of the extra fluids and a soft food that the vet gave us.

Did they suggest fluids first?

Ahem...(clears throat)

Me-me-me-meeeeeee...

My bologna has a first name it's O-S-C-A-R, my bologna has a second name, it's M-A-Y-E-R. Oh! I love to eat it every day and if you ask me why I'll say.'Cause Oscar Mayer has a way with B-O-L-O-G-N-A!

I had to get that out of my system. I made my daughter a bologna sandwich this morning and that accursed jingle has been haunting me since! <_<

We've been having such fun on the gfp thread lately, and made such a crazy mess of it, that I thought it was time to move the silliness to it's own silly home. So come on in and join the silliness. Any topic is fair game. Laughter is the best medicine!

Does anybody else have a particularly annoying jingle stuck in their head? (Who let the dogs out?)

Amanda...............I absolutely LOVE your new signature :wub: ...........made me cry!

:) A lot has happened in my life in the last year and today made me really reflect on it and think and boy this thread has really helped me keep it together. I am so glad I have an outlet where I can come and let it all go, be accepted and get that support to continue on.

I look at all the times I have to vent about my workplace and some of the personal conflicts, now I have got to report things are so great there and a lot of the advice came from my sillies. We are more than just screennames and silly antedotes and pharting purse stealing kangrawhosits, and I wanted to let you guys all know it. Lets face it, this is my home away from home. Rarely do I travel outside the safe confines of Sillyville.

Back to the 70's porn song, did you guys ever see that Episode of Friends where Joey and Chandler are getting the free porn channel on TV? Rachel comes walking in and she is humming that song, and she is like what the heck song is that and Joey goes oh thats the theme to Good will Humping!

      This article does not address migraines at all.  Yes, red wine and sulfites are often mentioned in connection with migraine triggers. With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably. So, I think most of my migraines are tied to fluctuations vascular tension and blood flow to the brain. That's why the sumatriptan works so well. It is a vaso constrictor.

      Excessive dietary tyrosine can cause problems.  Everything in moderation.   Sulfites can also trigger migraines. Sulfites are found in fermented, pickled and aged foods, like cheese.  Sulfites cause a high histamine release.  High histamine levels are found in migraine.  Following a low histamine diet like the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet, helps immensely.    Sulfites and other migraine trigger foods can cause changes in the gut microbiome.  These bad bacteria can increase the incidence of migraines, increasing histamine and inflammation leading to increased gut permeability (leaky gut), SIBO, and higher systemic inflammation.   A Ketogenic diet can reduce the incidence of migraine.  A Paleo diet like the AIP diet, that restricts carbohydrates (like from starchy vegetables) becomes a ketogenic diet.  This diet also changes the microbiome, eliminating the bad bacteria and SIBO that cause an increase in histamine, inflammation and migraine.  Fewer bad bacteria reduces inflammation, lowers migraine frequency, and improves leaky gut. Since I started following the low histamine ketogenic AIP paleo diet, I rarely get migraine.  Yes, I do eat carbs occasionally now, rice or potato, but still no migraines.  Feed your body right, feed your intestinal bacteria right, you'll feel better.  Good intestinal bacteria actually make your mental health better, too.  I had to decide to change my diet drastically in order to feel better all the time, not just to satisfy my taste buds.  I chose to eat so I would feel better all the time.  I do like dark chocolate (a migraine trigger), but now I can indulge occasionally without a migraine after.   Microbiota alterations are related to migraine food triggers and inflammatory markers in chronic migraine patients with medication overuse headache https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11546420/

      Then we would need to cut out all meat and fish as they are richer sources of tyrosine than nuts and cheese. Something else about certain tyrosine rich foods must be the actual culprit.

      I agree that KAN-101 looks promising, and hope the fast track is approved. From our article below: "KAN-101 shows promise as an immune tolerance therapy aiming to retrain the immune system, potentially allowing safe gluten exposure in the future, but more clinical data is needed to confirm long-term effects."

      Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self. What you're describing sounds less like a purely psychological body dysmorphia and more like a distinct neurological event, likely triggered by the immense physical stress and inflammation that uncontrolled celiac disease can inflict on the entire body, including the nervous system. It makes complete sense that the specific sensory input—the pressure points of your elbows on your knees—created a temporary, distorted body map in your brain, and the fact that it ceased once you adopted a gluten-free diet is a crucial detail. Your intuition to document this is absolutely right; it's not "crazy" but rather a significant anecdotal data point that underscores the mysterious and far-reaching ways gluten can affect individuals. Your theory about sensory triggers from the feet for others is also a thoughtful insight, and sharing this story could indeed be validating for others who have had similar, unexplainable sensory disturbances, helping them feel less alone in their journey.
