Great news :D:D and sad news...... :(

Ptoughmghmnuss!! Superb. You'll be at orientation at 4:30 my time. . . . will be thinking about ya. Good for you!! :)

Bev. . . . I'm so sorry to hear about yer dad's cat. I'm heading over with gluten-free apple toffee cake and a couple dozen Canadian Lumberjack tarts. . . .... :)

Speaking of which .. . . Jess! How did yer Canuck tarts turn out?

Number of molars unknowingly fractured: 1

Number of said molars filled: 1

Quite astonishing. . . . as I sat in my dentist's chair, I noticed him paying a great deal of attention to one back molar. His eyes wide, he took off his mask and said, "How did you fracture that tooth back there? Looks like someone took a club to ya"......

I blinked back at him. Yep, seems my upper back molar is cracked and a big piece is missing, as often happens in barroom brawls, bronco-riding and prison stays.

I couldn't believe it, and told him that I have no idea when this took place.

Dunno if he believed me .. . .......

So, I was close to an HOUR in his chair, as he reworked surfaces, drilled for eternity, reconstructed, froze some more, drilled, stopped to shake his arms out. . . .......

Quite a visit . . . .. .. ...

:rolleyes:

Keeping in mind, of course, that a job'll never compare to hanging out here.

Bev, so sorry about your Dad's little buddy. I hate that part of life.

Canadian tarts turned out great. I used two bricks o' cheese, three eggs, 5 T of sugar, a little vanilla and some pumpkin pie spice. Made them in a tart pan so they were like little dense, moist cookies. To transport w/o stickiness (I have a 1.5 hour commute on public transportation) I dipped the bottoms in ginger snap crumbs.

Incredible. . . ....could I have possibly been in a bench-clearing brawl whilst sound asleep? :huh: I'm telling you, it's a mystery. Dentist was eyeing me like there was NO WAY my tooth could have sustained such damage without me knowing it.

Uh huh.

It's bizarre.

OK!!!!!.....................I've done some research.

The first sighting I can find of Llama Lady is during Emily's reign <_<

I thought there was one before June 13, but couldn't find it.

I know LL appeared after I did, which was May 10, I believe.

Here are a couple of posts with vital info.......

LL :huh: out

Besides this, we know that LL loves Monty Python and Oprah, doesn't own a llama but would like to, and lives in a place in the US that has llamas everywhere......(once commented that he/she lives in Llama Land USA).

I did the grunge work, the rest of you can put the pieces togeher :D

Edit: Forgot one more thing. During one of LL's absences, he/she had been in New York.

      Potential celiac need advice

      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.
