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 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).

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.

      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.
