Nikki!! How do you make those thingies bigger?? (the pictograms! <_< ) And added coloUr??!

The robe smells. Needs dry cleaning. I think Emily let her dogs sleep on it. Don't ask about the blood stain!! Yes, the jester and trumpeter are doing better, however, they have a standing appointment for their couples counseling that you will need to make sure that they get to . . . and whatever you do, don't let them get ahold of the keys to ANYbody's car, truck, RV, lawn tractor, etc . . . you get the drift. If you've got a lock for yer bike, I would use it.

:lol::lol:

Yeah, what's with the smell on that robe? Me poodles don't smell, and don't shed, either, so they were free to lounge on it regularly. . . . . . ....the wrinkles in the velvet are absolutely due to prone dog. Get them to press it, Erica, when you take it in . . . . ..

I think our Jester/Bugler couple swiped it one evening and took turns adorning it while out carousing through downtown Ottawa. . . . . bugling, tambourining, staggering, singing. . . . who knows what the source of that lingering stench is. . . . ..... :huh: And that stain.... . . ...I've been wondering if it is from blood, or something else.

I think the bugler wore it to his shift at Walmart, without clearing it with me.

:lol:

Now we all can say, "you just wait, one of these days you will want to get a hot tub and however will you manage without MATH!!!!!!!"

Yes!! Thank you for this, Jooolie! I shall put it into practice at once! :lol:

I said, Shush girl shut your lips,

Do the Hellen Keller and talk with your hips.

:blink::blink: Mygawd. . . . ..... . .♠ ◘ ○ . . ........I jus' dunnno what to say about that one. . . ..!

Ptaoughmghmn! Interesting. . . . candida shouldn't be offering you any problems. .. . ..curiouser and curiouser. . . .....I'm sorry you're no closer to some, ANY, answer. . . ..... :(:angry:

I'm off to peruse Oracle PeOter's pictogram site of page 37, er sumfin'. . . . .

Got my candidaq bloodtest results yesterday.

I really expected higher numbers.

Candida IgA 8

Candida IgG 2

Candida IgM 7

Limit's 10 for all.

IgM is the first response, followed by IgG. A low IgG may mean "no", or it may mean "not yet". IgA may or may not be present in serum.

These tests seem like the "positive, if positive, but not necessarily negative if negative" type.

Bev, I wish you could pet her too. She's asleep at my feet right now...she really does make life better.

Today she learned how to run, and is learning how to play. She met another dog in the neighborhood, and had more neighbors come to meet her and play. We've had a few accidents in the house, but we are working on it. I still have no idea what the plan is for sleeping tonight. Is it terrible that I just want her to sleep in the bed with me? !!!! (Sleeping in the bed with me does NOT equal "crate training", apparently)

I love, love, love her. LOVE HER.

Her little "playing picture" is so darn cute :D I want to just pick her up and hug her!!

I spoke with an old friend today--lots of catching up and gabbing.....it's been a while and one of the things she told me is that she got a new puppy earlier this year--a Chocolate Lab!! She said that the dog thinks she's one of the kids :rolleyes:

I told her about Sammy, and how adorable she is. I thought that was such a neat coincidence :)

Laura! Bring that adorable pup into bed wif you........ . . there was no way I could resist bringing my little, crying poodle pup into bed with me on those first cold nights. . .. . I know, I know, it's against the crate rules. . .. ...but gawd! How can we resist?? And she won't pee in your bed - - she'll whine and wriggle around first, to let you know she's gotta go . .. .you'll just hafta move quickly! :):)

Well me sillies,

Off to bed. Weezee and I worked an eight-hour shift today, it's been so long! My shadow has not darkened the doorway of ANY establishment at 8 a.m. since.......God knows when! I never make early morning appts and......if I see 6 a.m. it usually means I've been up all night. :blink: <thank God that's been quite a while>

It was such a good day. Pray for phunding (it's a non-profit) so that this can become my REAL JOB. I LOVE working for Shane and he loves having me. Weezee gets to go too. :)

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      I am doing a gluten challenge right now and I bought vital wheat gluten so I can know exactly how much gluten I am getting. One tablespoon is 7g so 1½ tablespoons of Vital Wheat Gluten per day will get you to 10g You could add it to bean burgers as a binder or add to hot chocolate or apple sauce and stir.

      @catnapt, Wheat germ has very little gluten in it. Gluten is the carbohydrate storage protein, what the flour is made from, the fluffy part. Just like with beans, there's the baby plant that will germinate ("germ"-inate) if sprouted, and the bean part is the carbohydrate storage protein.

Thiamine and Niacin are required to produce energy for all the homocysteine lowering reactions provided by Folate, Cobalamine and Pyridoxine. Weight...

      Raising you vitamin D will increase absorption of calcium automatically without supplementation of calcium.  A high PTH can be caused by low D causing poor calcium absorption; not insuffient calcium intake.  With low D your body is not absorbing calcium from your food so it steals it from your bones.  Heart has priority over bone. I've been taking 10,000 IU D3 a day since 2015.  My doctor says to continue. To fix my lactose intolerance, lots of lactobacillus from yogurts, and brine fermented pickles and saurkraut and olives.  We lose much of our ability to make lactase endogenosly with maturity but a healthy colony of lactobacillus in our gut excretes lactase in exchange for room and board. The milk protein in grass fed milk does not bother me. It tastes like the milk I grew up on.  If I drink commercial milk I get heartburn at night. Some experts estimate that 90% of us do not eat Adequite Intake of choline.  Beef and eggs are the principle source. Iodine deficiency is a growing concern.  I take 600 mcg a day of Liquid Iodine.  It and NAC have accelerated my healing all over.  Virtually blind in my right eye after starting antihypertensive medication and vision is slowly coming back.  I had to cut out starches because they drove my glucose up into the 200+ range.  I replaced them with Red Bull for the glucose intake with the vitamins, minerals and Taurine needed to process through the mitochodria Krebs Cycle to create ATP.  Went from A1c 13 down to 7.9.  Work in progress.

Luckily you still have time to do a proper gluten challenge (10 grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks) before your next appointment when you can be retested.

      Hello, @asaT, I'm curious to know whether you are taking other B vitamins like Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3.  Malabsorption in Celiac disease affects all the water soluble B vitamins and Vitamin C.  Thiamine and Niacin are required to produce energy for all the homocysteine lowering reactions provided by Folate, Cobalamine and Pyridoxine.   Weight gain with a voracious appetite is something I experienced while malnourished.  It's symptomatic of Thiamine B1 deficiency.   Conversely, some people with thiamine deficiency lose their appetite altogether, and suffer from anorexia.  At different periods on my lifelong journey, I suffered this, too.   When the body doesn't have sufficient thiamine to turn food, especially carbohydrates, into energy (for growth and repair), the body rations what little thiamine it has available, and turns the carbs into fat, and stores it mostly in the abdomen.  Consuming a high carbohydrate diet requires additional thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  Simple carbohydrates (sugar, white rice, etc.) don't contain thiamine, so the body easily depletes its stores of Thiamine processing the carbs into fat.  The digestive system communicates with the brain to keep eating in order to consume more thiamine and other nutrients it's not absorbing.   One can have a subclinical thiamine insufficiency for years.  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function, so the symptoms can wax and wane mysteriously.  Symptoms of Thiamine insufficiency include stunted growth, chronic fatigue, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi (diarrhea, abdominal pain), heart attack, Alzheimer's, stroke, and cancer.   Thiamine improves bone turnover.  Thiamine insufficiency can also affect the thyroid.  The thyroid is important in bone metabolism.  The thyroid also influences hormones, like estrogen and progesterone, and menopause.  Vitamin D, at optimal levels, can act as a hormone and can influence the thyroid, as well as being important to bone health, and regulating the immune system.  Vitamin A is important to bone health, too, and is necessary for intestinal health, as well.   I don't do dairy because I react to Casein, the protein in dairy that resembles gluten and causes a reaction the same as if I'd been exposed to gluten, including high tTg IgA.  I found adding mineral water containing calcium and other minerals helpful in increasing my calcium intake.   Malabsorption of Celiac affects all the vitamins and minerals.  I do hope you'll talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing all eight B vitamins and the four fat soluble vitamins because they all work together interconnectedly.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      By Florence Lillian · Posted

      Hi Jane: You may want to try the D3 I now take. I have reactions to fillers and many additives. Sports Research, it is based in the USA and I have had no bad reactions with this brand. The D3 does have coconut oil but it is non GMO, it is Gluten free, Soy free, Soybean free and Safflower oil free.  I have a cupboard full of supplements that did not agree with me -  I just keep trying and have finally settled on Sports Research. I take NAKA Women's Multi full spectrum, and have not felt sick after taking 2 capsules per day -  it is a Canadian company. I buy both from Amazon. I wish you well in your searching, I know how discouraging it all is. Florence.
