Nikerler!! So great to hear that Pson of Psilly is starving and chatting non-stop!! All great signs. . . . . ... :):)

Um........do you think that we can lobby for a National Anal Glands Expression Day? :lol:

Mygawd, Sooozie!! You haven't heard of Canada's "Expression of Love: Anal Gland Care Day"?? Verrrrrry big up here. .... . .....devoted dog owners gather on Parliament Hill with their impacted pooches every March 1st, and on queue, have a group Canadian Expression (quite unlike other Canuck expressions, such as "toque" and "washroom")...... . ..

:lol::rolleyes:

Really, you should get a movement like this started down there, Soooozie.

I think your new president might be open to looking at this. . . . . . . .

Or National Dangling Member Appreciation Day!!!!!

now coming up with ideas for even more fun days......A task I am up to par on!!!

Glad to hear Al is doing well.

The computer war has been won!!! I sent my boss after her this morning :) My boss told me she doesnt think the woman is the sharpest knife in the drawer ;) Love it!

I had my annual employee health visit this morning- got my annual TB test....which thankfully is barely visible as we speak (last year it rashed up and was raised....I was scared) I also got a pertusis vaccine....turns out Whooping Cough is becoming an issue again and the hospital was offering the free Tetanus vaccine to all employees and I figured what the heck might as well....2 of my coworkers kids have had whopping cough in the last few months....so got the shot and boy is my arm sore!!!!!

.... and is currently talking the hind leg off a donkey :lol:

:lol::lol: that one tickled me phunny bone. Glad to hear he's doing well!!

I shall claim full credit for getting the samatar avatar pheature phixed wif me PM to Scott (I did hear back from him wif a "I fixed it try it again" message about the same time you all phigured out it was back to normal. I initially thought that I wouldn't PM Scott . . . thought he might be innundated wif "What's wrong wif me av?" messages and then it donned/dawned (anybody else remember that conversation?? tom??) on me . . . Does anyone change their avs besides us??? Certainly not wif the same phrequency!!!

New tires on me van today . . . rides like its brand new!!! What a difference!!

tom Contributor
man heads are gonna roll......... :huh:

<chuckle-chuckle>

Just back from the hospital - all went well with Al's leg op

Yippeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :) :)

OH, and NARY a scrap of gluten-freeness available on the day care unit......they kept trying to force a cheese sandwich on him :rolleyes:

:angry: .. ...somehow expected this to be better 'cross the pond, like so many other things, even if only incrementally so.

I think I forgot to mention months ago that I saw an article that the official UK Health Ministry(?) position on IBS was being changed to "hey let's check for celiac". That feels lightyears ahead of the US.

Or National Dangling Member Appreciation Day!!!!!

:o

Isn't that supposed to be every day?

Or is that the Not-So-Dangling? :confusednowface:

The computer war has been won!!!

Woohooooo .. . . Henceforth Nov 19th is National Computing Armistice Day!!!

Hope you're tucked in for the long haul, baby! Tis only November. February's always the worst, for me. I'm just so DONE by then. I wish I had a job where I could migrate.

Hehehehe Yes :lol: . ...in my defense, it WAS quite the coincidence that I'd heard of "donned" only from a phellow Hoosier.

<russian accent> there is no magnitude of coincidences

      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
    • Scott Adams
      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.
