thinking of J and hoping to hear from her soon, and wishing Patti the best tomorrow morning!

"Response to Russian attack on Georgia"

An excited redneck ran into a Wal-mart store in Alabama over the weekend with a pocket full of cash demanding all the ammunition he can buy.

This caught the immediate attention of the store manager who arrived promptly at the sporting goods counter to assess the situation.

"Why do you need all this ammunition?" the manager asks the redneck.

"'Cause I just heard on CNN that the Russians have attacked Georgia--they gonna play h$ll if they attack Alabama!"

:lol::lol: This reminds me of what Jack exclaimed when we were watching the news, and there was footage of Russian tanks moving into Georgia. He said, "Oh my gawd..........what is Russia thinking?? A little southern state, minding their own business?!"

Patti, I've been thinking about you.....bet ya can't wait for tomorrow to be in the can. What time is your proceedure? I know you'll be a brave little soldier........ :)

Yes, I wonder if Jess is up and moving about.

The fact we haven't heard from Sarah could be a good thing...... . . maybe she's been very busy getting legal assistance and researching her position. Let's hope.............

This was my thought too.

My appointment's at 8:30, Em. Have to be there at 8. I'm hoping the bloodwork will be in also--she seemed to think it would be when I saw her on Friday.

Patti - this time tomorrow it will be over . . . here's hoping they find some answers (but nuttin' scary).

My neighboUr spent a couple of days in the hospital after her goil surgery . . . no guarentee that Jess is even home yet. Sure hoping that Sarah has gotten some legal counseling.

I'm in withdrawal. I have figured we were averaging about 50 emails/day for about 7 days . . . yep, that's right, I got about 350 emails (and that's what Nikki will be coming home to) . . . of course I'm not even sure I got all of them . . . and now today . . . just a pittance!!!

Thanks Jan-it :) I hope so too.

I know about the emails!! Twice in the last week I've had to clear out my inbox.... :P

If Nik's email account is anything like mine, she won't get half of what we sent her. Em, I just got one from you about an hour ago that I'm sure you sent yesterday :lol:

This is probably a little late, but could still come in handy next time any of you go straying out of Sillyville ;) .........actually, it would work well for those dealing with certain @#*!!$% men, too!

ANTI-STRESS EXERCISE

Picture yourself near a stream.......

birds are chirping in the crisp, cool mountain air......

nothing can bother you here.......

no one knows the secret place........

you are in total seclusion from that place called "the world"........

the soothing sound of a gentle waterfall fills the air with a cascade of serenity..........

the water is clear............

you can easily make out the face of the person whose head you're holding under water.

There now.......................feeling better? :D

My mom had an endoscopy and colonoscopy today, and she's just home, resting comfortably, feels fantastic, even though they stretched her esophagus (the purpose of the procedure - happens yearly for her). No polyps - she says they must come from my dad's side - my grandfather, brother, dad (died of colon cancer) and I have all had them.....he cut a BIG 'UN outta me during my procedure in '06. My GI said.......they ALL turn into cancer, over time. :o I did not know that.

<morbid statement coming>

There have been days, lately, when I wish he would have left it in. Why am I here??????????? :ph34r:

speaking of certain ba$tard men, someone mentioned to me today taht A$$hole's story (and the other orphaned children across the street) very well could make it into People magazine.

This, my friends, would have me..........homicidal. :lol::angry:

Glad mom's OK :D You arre here because you are loved.

If he makes it in People I will purposely eat gluten so I can PROJECTILE vomit from here to CA!!!!!!!! <_< <_< <_<

      Medication

      By Julie 911 · Posted

      Good day! New members here and I have a question about medication. My gastroenterologist made me stop some medication during the gluten challenge beforenthe screening test but I have a little surgery tomorrow and I need to know if I can use tylenol for half a day or if it will give me false results using it.   Thanks

      I agree, there can be contamination at many points--milling is another possible source of contamination for any flours.

      By trents · Posted

      Keep in mind that with manufactured food products, "gluten free" doesn't equate to no gluten. Things that are naturally gluten free can be cross-contaminated with gluten in the field, in shipping and in processing. In the U.S. companies can use the gluten free label as long as the product doesn't exceed 20ppm of gluten. That amount still may cause a reaction in some people.

      Inconclusive results

      By deanna1ynne · Posted

      Dd10 was tested for celiac four years ago bc two siblings were dx’d (positive labs and biopsies). Her results at the time were positive ema  and ttg (7x the UL), but a negative biopsy. We checked again three months later and her ttg was still positive (4x the UL), but ema and biopsy were negative. Doc said it was “potential celiac” and to keep eating gluten, but we were concerned about harming her growth and development while young and had her go gluten-free because we felt the labs and ema in particular were very suggestive of early celiac, despite the negative biopsies. She also had stomach aches and lethargy when eating it. We just felt it’d be better to be safe than sorry. Now, four years later, she doesn’t want to be gluten-free if she doesn’t “have to be,” so underwent a 12 week gluten challenge. She had labs done before starting and all looked great (celiac panel all negative, as expected.) Surprisingly, she experienced no noticeable symptoms when she began eating gluten again, which we felt was a positive sign. However, 12 weeks in, her labs are positive again (ttg 4x the UL and ema positive again as well). Doc says that since she feels fine and her previous two biopsies showed nothing, she can just keep eating gluten and we could maybe biopsy again in two years. I was looking up the ema test and the probability of having not just one but two false positives, and it seems ridiculously low.  Any advice? Would you biopsy again? She’s old enough at this point that I really feel I need her buy-in to keep her gluten-free, and she feels that if the doc says it’s fine, then that’s the final word — which makes me inclined to biopsy again and hope that it actually shows damage this time (not because I want her to have celiac like her sisters, but because I kind of think she already does have it, and seeing the damage now would save her more severe damage in the long run that would come from just continuing to eat gluten for a few more years before testing again.)  Our doc is great - we really like him. But we are very confused and want to protect her. One of her older sibs stopped growing and has lots of teeth problems and all that jazz from not catching the celiac disease sooner, and we don’t want to get to that point with the younger sis. fwiw- she doesn’t mind the biopsy at all. It’s at a children’s hospital and she thinks it’s kind of fun. So it’s not like that would stress her out or anything.

      Thanks for the replies. I already use a gluten-free brand of buckwheat flakes I occasionally get itchy bumps. I'm still reviewing all my food products. I occasionally eat prepackaged gluten-free crackers and cookies, so I'll stop using those. I use buckwheat flakes and Doves Farm flour as a base for baking. Would you recommend eliminating those as well? It's a constant search.
