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:

Where be Peter, and Lisa B, and Laura??

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.

Why, yes, I am watchng the debate tonight....The Canadian Federal Election debate, of course. :) There are five parties in the running, three big ones and two smaller, fringe groups...we have a Conservative minority right now (roughly equivalent to your Republicans), but they could be gunning for a majority. 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."

      Potential celiac need advice

      By itsdunerie · Posted

      Dang......did it again and yeah I should admit I am 63 with clumsy phone thumbs. I started feeling better quickly and a doctor a year later said I had to eat  poison (gluten) every day for a month so he could formally diagnose me and NO FREAKING WAY. I couldn't then and can't imagine putting my body through that crap (no pun intended) on purpose ever again.  Why ingest poison for a month to have some doctor say Hey, All you Have To Do Is Never Eat poison Again..

      15 years ago my best friend 'diagnosed' me as Celiac. Her little nephew had been formally diagnosed and her observations of me dealing with brain fog, stomach problems and other stuff had her convincing me to try going gluten free. Oh my heavens, within 3 days, no lie, I felt human again. Took me about a y

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.
