i'm here :D

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

I'm glad you're feeling ok about it now, Bev.....maybe after the break, your body will tolerate it better :) What a week, indeed!

I was so saddened to hear 'bout your dad's kitty :(

Dad's meow meow is doing Ok- she's kind of up and down with eating but so far she's hanging tough.

Patti- I hope all goes well tomorrow and that the answer is sumfin simple and I think I can speak for Laura and I when I say I hope it ain't the Lyme beast (need green tick emoticon).

Holy crap... . . . . .... .... :unsure:

.... . . . .Where is everybody?... . .. .. . ..

Yo soy aqui tambien!!!!!!!!!!! Just went out for a last Hurrah dinner with Kurt. Went to a place in Gloucester with a deck and I had a cocktail and yummy seafood! Last drink for awhile! No drinking during treatment and in the 10 week break I've probably had 2 drinks. Made these 2 count ^^

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!!!!!!!! <_< <_< <_<

      Bob red mill gluten free oats

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified...

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you...

      High TTG-IgG and Normal TTG-IgA

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease...

The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining it often results in nutritional deficiencies such as anemia. NCGS does not damage the small bowel lining so your history of anemia may suggest you have celiac disease as opposed to NCGS. But either way, a gluten-free diet is in order. NCGS can cause bodily damage in other ways, particularly to neurological systems.
