Hey all! Rain, and more rain here. Just cold enuff to freeze on the trees and shrubs...looks really pretty. Not cold enough to freeze the roads, so that's kool. Has iced up me deck.....wooden but not self-erected :lol: . I am not in the least tempted to try going down the ice-covered steps.....oh, no,no,no. Still having troubles from my slinky adventure <_<

Glad to hear from Kween Manda! I'm excited for you! After a year in our house there are still some things unpacked....still some things unfound (probably in the black holes with all of those escapee socks and squished boobies :rolleyes: ). 'Tis fun to arrange and decorate a new home.

"Kool Beans in the Belfry"? Just playing around with our trite sayings. Can come up with some pretty odd mental images. I love words, language, playing around wif it all. Maybe that's weird....but I am comfortable with my weirdness.

Hope yer all havin' a super day. Later

Good afternoon, psillies.

Got a bunch of snow here overnight. We had one of our staff open this morning (planned well in advance) so we arrived around noon, all of the shoveling had already been done. :)

HOLY Tiger Pigs!!! What in hell's me post count??? :o

PHLUID events have been occuring and they are GUT CHURNING!!!!!!!

Poor wee Alzey.... he's had a Whitlow cuticle infection on his finger for about a week, they usually clear by themselves (he bites his nails, I think that's why he gets 'em?)

WELL, this one ain't clearing...I phoned me gp but the dragon receptionist was adamant that the quack doc couldn't see him 'til MONDAY!!!! :angry: ....poor lad's in alot of pain.... (UK's NHS is going to pot BTW! :rolleyes: )

....ANYHOO, can't leave him in pain so I took him to a 'minor injuries unit' (a bit like a 'minor ER')

The nurse looked, winced, and said 'let me just take a look'........OMG!!!!!..as she touched it, IT EXPLODED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GAHHHHhhhh!!!!!!! Pus and blood everywhere!!!!!!!! :vomitface:

She's had to put a dressing on it - he's going to lose his nail :( .....they want to test him for diabetes as he the slightest scratch gets infected :blink::rolleyes: (although I don't think it's that ...he just has a poor immune system)

Ok, hope you weren't eating and reading :lol: ...but HAD to share ;)

OH, boiler news...... they'll ring me when they know something :blink::lol: ('cos I ain't on their computer!)

Okey dokey ......this could be a looooong winter.... but I think we're acclimatising!!!!!!

Ouch on Alzy's p%$#@#bloody fingernail. Hope the diabetes test comes back OK.

elye Community Regular

Nik! Poor wee Alzy!! Well, he ain't so wee, now, is he?). . . . . :rolleyes:

Gawd, methinks you'd have a pretty good idea if he were diabetic - - so many screaming, debilitating symptoms (rapid weight loss, excessive thirst and urination, blurry vision, wicked head pain).....this can't be it! An easily infected kid, wif a wonky immune system . . .. . . ... . .hope there's no more blood and/or pus!!

Ummmm, Ptaughmmnnn........we need to have a talk :ph34r: I already know we were both in Tucson about the same time. I also lived in another Chicago suburb, Elmhurst, in about..........let me think..........I was in 4th and 5th grade, and I guess 6th :unsure: ...............age 8-10, maybe 11...........carry the one................1967, '68, '69 thereaboutish. Where else you been?........Florida?........Utah?...........Indiana? Had no idea you been tryin' to find me all yer life! :lol:

Venice FL & Sandy UT!!!!!!!!! :o :phokoinkidinkphace:

Elmhurst Rd (aka 83) is a main thoroughfare thru Mt Prospect!! Taking it straight south 2 or 3 towns puts me in yer old town :)

Have I not mentioned I'm being transferred to Indy? :lol:

Nope, I used to live in Lake County but have migrated closer to "the city" to be closer to school... I guess better wording in my original post would have been "suburban Illinois" (the HUGE area that is referred to as "Chicagoland" but is actually not conveniently located to Chicago) ;)

Psilly Illinoisians!

Ahh yes Lake County's nice. As a kid we'd go applepicking in Wauconda, and fishing at Fox, Pistakee, Chain o' Lakes et al. :happyreminisceface:

"Kool Beans in the Belfry"? Just playing around with our trite sayings.

That's a gift horse of different colored teeth. :wacko:

He actually offered, and I said "Sure! If it's free...." And he said it was, so I said lay it on me baby. I got nuthin.... Where's my laffy-laffy, mister? Crappy stuff......

The guy kinda damaged my gums a bit.... oww.....

I was .... but it takes more than that to gross me out. :) I hope his nail grows back quickly.

I was so easily bruised before I got better that I lost a toenail last summer due to bruising .... and the worst part is, I don't even know how I got the bruise! I didn't even know it was there till I removed my toenail polish and saw it!

Have I not mentioned I'm being transferred to Indy? :lol:

Uh, I missed this ... are you serious? (I ask on the silly thread, ROFL!)

Are everybody's blue googlers gender-specific hygiene or just mine? :huh:

Nik Nik, you may have to start mentioning the dreaded ......lawyer word to those pee-poles. If lawyer does not work the first time you may have to mention (ahem)...lawyer There has to be a way to get them moving! It's inhumane to leave people without heat in midwinter.

:lol::lol:

I haven't been blue-googled this ad yet - - are TOMS an American restaurant chain? Or is it really a dating site, where only those named Tom can be members?

Perhaps it is just a statement.....All Toms, generally, are vegan-friendly. Running through all of the Toms I've ever known... . . . . .. .Y'know, it's probably true!! :huh::lol:

I was getting toe nail fungus, and fungus related things....which brings me to little Al (ditto Em, I guess he isn't so little anymore is he? But it's just habit to call him little Al)

Poor Alzey!!!! I hope it heals quickly :)

Exciting times Amanda!!!! :D

Another observation from The Tudors, one of the characters said, "she's such a f#@&ing b!%ch"...um, I don't think they talked like that in 1532, did they?!?!? :lol:

(3 guesses who the b!%ch was :lol:)

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      Those are driving distance from me--I will try to check them out, thanks for sharing!
    • Scott Adams
      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.
