Now see??? This is what I was talking about.....I had to do such duty on occasion at the high school. The kids were supposed to clean up after themselves, but you know how that goes.....it was BC (before Celiac) so no gloves fer me. Yuk :P:P

curlyfries Contributor

Just as a side note.........since I've already spilled my guts.......

For some reason, when I was at the middle school......i could really connect with some of the kids there, which is why i loved it there so much......

......must be why I feel a connection here :lol::lol::lol: .......same difference!

All right, I must share with you the exchange I had with my dad this afternoon. I called him, as I was feeling just yucky about Sarah, and I briefly told him how sad we all were feeling, and that I needed to hear something uplifting to pass along. He immediately said, "Well.....you need to recite to everyone the poignant words of Confucious:

Once I wept, for I had no shoes,

Until I met a man who had no feet.

So I asked him, "Got any shoes you're not using?"

:lol::lol:

Anyone see Our Peter??? I miss him!

(((((((HUGS))))) to our dear Sarah!

Sillies stick together!

I'm here. It has been a busy day for me at our business. I have been looking in, and thinking. SO SO much to think about. Sarah, I am thinking about you. Amanda, your new signature moved me.

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

I'm back!!!!!!!

Yes- my fellow silly mates may use the signature as well. I dont mind at all. I spent time with Jen, we have really come close in the last year and to that I am glad.

My foot keeps acting up and I will be getting some X-rays....thats all I need is a big plaster cast on my leg....at least its the left leg though....but still!

I got to tell you all, so Jen and I were discuss feelings and such and she says her and Becky had a heart to heart about stuff. Jen said this has been a weird day and people have been sharing feelings....and I told her about the conversations we have been having here and how todays events transpired. Lets face it I discuss my sillies outside the thread. :) Now thats love!

Lucky actually has been drinking a lot. So the vet said not too worry the meds are making him fatigued. We really like the new Vet which gives me piece of mind. Our last vet was a know it all....and you all know how I hate KNOW-IT-ALL's. We constantly were Phizzled with the old vet. To tell me my cat has cancer and the only way to tell is to cut him open and "explore".....that was 2 yrs ago. mu kitty had been sick over recalled pet food. He bounced back. Now this!

Amanda - good to hear about Landen and Lucky.

Well, I'm off to bed. I've been staying up too late watching the Olympics coverage and it's catching up with me. . . but first a silly from me daughter:

. . . can't even remember the topic of conversation but she said "Easier said than done." She paused and then added "unless you can't talk, then it's easier done than said."

Sarah - still thinking about you, wishing you peace and strength and a decent night's sleep. :wub:

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

Night Sillies--my butt is due back at work tomorrow, so I will just catch up with you all while I am there....can't concentrate on work every minute of the phreaken day right?

The thunder is getting louder so I am unplugging the puter anyway.

Going to put my bum leg up too.....I am such a klutz!

So hopefully you can all hold down the phort till tomorrow.

Peter--hopefully the store will calm some soon, we miss you greatly!

      I am doing a gluten challenge right now and I bought vital wheat gluten so I can know exactly how much gluten I am getting. One tablespoon is 7g so 1½ tablespoons of Vital Wheat Gluten per day will get you to 10g You could add it to bean burgers as a binder or add to hot chocolate or apple sauce and stir.

      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 +

      @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.   Wheat germ is the baby plant inside a kernel of wheat, and bran is the protective covering of the kernel.   Little to no gluten there.   Large amounts of lectins are in wheat germ and can cause digestive upsets, but not enough Gluten to provoke antibody production in the small intestines. 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.

      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.

      Hi Jane: You may want to try the D3 I now take. I have reactions to fillers and many additives. Sports Research, it is based in the USA and I have had no bad reactions with this brand. 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.
