Make sure to come back and give us a Ballcock Report, Amanda.. .....

......and don't forget to get a look at his thumbs!

Susie's place has become a final resting place for critters......first mice, now a bird......something is luring them to this spot, where they feel compelled to end their lives!

Were you finding dead bugs in your house before this?

What next?...Will this continue?......Will the next one's be progressively larger?......say, perhaps a bunnie?<<GASP>>>.....I didn't mean that! :o

What does it mean????

When did her house start to be a catalyst for strange phenomenon?.....Weezee's uncharacteristic trash fetish?.....or was there something before that?

So many questions to ponder. <_< ..................hmmmmm.........maybe Amanda's guy in the trunk was looking for Susie's house......

Patti!!!! Sounds like you had a great appt, your Dr sounds like she's on top of everything, definitely a keeper! I'm so happy to hear you are hopeful :D

btw, I did watch DSM. Thought it was fabulous!! I still love the son who is the ex-minister the best, he's so sarcastic and heartless, and does everything with a straight face, but it's SO hee-larious to me!!! :lol:

OMG Amanda this hosptial of yours :ph34r:

Yes- some things I would not recommend at our hospital but other departments are wonderful, Labor and Delivery (my friends have had children all raved) my family dr is awesome, The Reproductive Endo clinic where you seek fertility help--I have first hand experience there....I am not sure how many of you all know this since I didn't tell many but we are all family now, I donated my eggs twice, to 2 infertile couples hoping to have children. Both knew about the celiac and were cool with it too. Cancer care is good here and the Cardiovascular dept is amazing!

Patti- glad to hear all went well!!!! Its nice to be heard and walk away with the feeling that someone listened.

Landen is home this evening, just was down to see him. Jen is ok- we had a long talk and she was undrstanding. The reason I got upset with her is Becky has been very threatening since going home to Wyoming and its been scary for Jen and all, yesterday more Becky drama ensued so I worried about that.

This is a big evening, lots riding on it. You guys should tune in. .. . .you may be surprised to see how impolite we Canucks can be when we're grasping fer votes. . . ..... :lol:

You ARE the Critter Whisperer......that is why they came......they tried desparately to tell you sumphin........but you weren't listening......you had not yet become aware of your gift.

And so.....alas.....they died......the stress was more than they could bear.

They did try to convey their message to Weezer, but she misunderstood. She thought they said "You will find true happiness when you eat beans from the garbage can"

"The actual message was......"You will find true happiness when you meet the man of your dreams in Canada."

      Buckwheat

      By Scott Adams · Posted

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

      Buckwheat

      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.

      Frequent nausea after gluten-free diet

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Gluten free food is not fortified with vitamins and minerals as regular food is.  Vitamin deficiencies are common especially in recently diagnosed persons,  Get a 25(OH)Vitamin D blood test. And work on raising it.  The safe upper blood level is around 200 nmol/L.    "Low serum levels of 25(OH)D have been associated with increased risk of autoimmune disease onset and/or high disease activity. The role of vitamin D in autoimmune diseases   🏋️‍♂️Good job!   I find the commercial milk will give me mild stomach burn at night, while pasture/grassfed only milk does not bother me at all.  While you are healing, listen to your body.  If it hurts to eat something, eat something else.  You may be able to eat it later, or maybe it is just not good for you.  Lower your Omega 6 to 3 ratio of what you eat.  Most omega 6 fatty acids are inflammation causing.    The standard american diet omega 6:3 ratio is estimated at upward of 14:1.  Thats why fish oil works
