Every year John and I do adopt an Angel through the Salvation Army. We pick a name off a tree and buy gifts for an underprivledged child. It is always a lot of fun.

It's true, there is absolutely nothing like the feeling of giving to someone who really needs yer help - - especially a child. :):)

Hey! There's a newbie named Eric who's posted over in the coping section.....he's put up a link to a very cool site where you can find humourous celiac T shirts and other paraphrenalia. He states that there "isn't much celiac humour around here".

I think I'd best respond to his post and inform him of Sillyville....get him over here....don't ya think?

Yesterday,

All my doughnuts seemed not gluten-free

Now it seems like they are more tasty,

Oh, I believe in gluten-free.

Suddenly,

I'm not half the woman I used to be,

There's a 15 pounds hanging onto me,

Oh, gluten-free came suddenly.

Why wheat

Had to go I don't know, the docs wouldn't say.

I couldn't sleep last night because I've been so immobile. My body hurts from not moving.

If the rain stops for a few hours I'll go for a walk, but does anyone have suggestions of exercise that doesn't involve the abdominal muscles? Or lifting?

:o Jess-- do no exercise at all except walking--which is good for you right now. It's still too soon for anything else.....when do you go for your follow-up?

I am so bad at being not well. Follow up is 1 month after surgery.

Stopping the pain meds was a good idea. Made me much more aware of when I was overdoing it.

I'll try doing gentle stretches throughout the day. Maybe just being in a multitude of positions will help, even if they aren't strenuous.

um.......I do recall your crazy at-home doctor but when I first read this, I thought you were having an ENDOSCOPY in his living room. :lol: I'm sorry, I really do think that that procedure should be done in a medical facility.......not on someone's divan.......

Yes, hopefully not too much tidying up and scrubbing/vacuuming for you there today.....but maybe you can bake some cookies with teh missus........

JESS! :blink:

Patti's right, you should ONLY be gently walking. NO vigorous swinging with those men, either! OMG - I am a really good patient :lol: Could loll in bed for days (as long as someone's feeding me and tending to Weez)......... :huh:

Wait for it.......Judith has balls??????? :o:lol:

Patti :lol: :lol: quite the comedian, you are

SILLIES - - I have been working out SO HARD at the gym - I think i've.......torn things..... :unsure: am in SO much pain adn too old for this sort of activity............shoulder/hip/back - what in hell? it didn't USED to hurt this much when I worked out........... :angry: getting old SUCKS!

Ah ..............'me balls are missing today'.......I'm a woos. :lol: have to go find me balls :blink:

Patti's the expert here for sure.

Agree here-----I just know that for me.....after surgeries I found that going off the pain meds made me much more aware of 'overdoing it' too.

I think just changing positions and moving when you can will help with the stiffness........and body aches.

each day will make it better........

Em good luck at the Dr today

don't over do with his 'chores' :lol:

No endoscopy scheduled today........and at least his specialty is NOT in gynecology. Think I'd be slowly backing toward the door if upon entering I saw metal stirrups affixed to his chest freezer........ . . . . ... :o:lol:

Yep, I sure can't do what I was doing ten years ago. :(:angry: I'm slower, less flexible......my hair isn't as nice........well, that's not an exercise thing, but |I could go on and on..... :rolleyes:

Jess! Walking is really good! Grab an umbrella and go......Not long, and not quickly...... .. but even a half-hour stroll would be excellent! Yes, I agree with you about easy stretching. Do that when you get back.

How long are you off work?

      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. 
    • knitty kitty
      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."  
    • Scott Adams
      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.
