Have not posted in a few days . . . I'm not phunny right now but am still reading along . . . have the most dreaded yearly apointment in an hour along wif the boob squeeze immediately after . . . hmmmm, wonder why I don't feel silly . . . :ph34r:

Hey, I've been reading about a new boobie cancer detection process called thermography. I guess it finds tumors before even mammograms can by measuring temperature fluctuations? They tried to use it in the 60's when the technology still sucked but now it works even better than mammograms, just most doctors won't suggest for fear of losing uninformed patients. Apparently it's less invasive than an ultrasound, and no squishing! That never made sense to me anyway. If you have a tumor, how is SQUISHING it going to help? Isn't that going to just spread it around?

No other options on the pap though.... sorry. Never hurt me to get a pap though, guess I'm lucky. Hope you went home and had some ice cream.

Hey Sillies . .. ...not all caught up but had to relate how stupid I've been.

Like everyone, I've read dozens of times about replacing pans etc.

When I first read it, so long ago, there was no problem as I didn't cook much before gluten-free and had gotten all new pans.

<ok duh where's the problem>

But when I moved in w/ John last year, he had his prev roommate's kitchen stuff, incl a lot of great pans - that guy was an actual trained chef at some Vermont culinary school.

Somehow it never struck me to keep using only my own. :duhface:

That's worth another :whata&^%$idiotface:

I still have those pans and have been using them.

What was I thinking?? <just NOT thinking?>

Could just a molecule here & there be keeping me down w/out showing glutenous symptoms??

If I'd had obvious glutening symptoms I would've tracked it down long ago.

I can't get my hopes up too high <again> but I sure won't use them again, at least for months (they ARE really nice) & we'll see if there's any difference.

Hey PHautaughmn!!!!!!!

Don't beat yourself up too much!...GADS..we've ALL done summat resulting in 'DOH' moments!! :rolleyes:

More later...off to Sven classes..haven't been ALL week as I found it preferable to sit indoors and eat chocolate :ph34r::lol:

flourgirl Apprentice

You really can't be too hard on yourselph Taawwmmm (Tickle-Tawwmm). First of all, one really wouldn't think that something like pans would be harboring the little monsters....but who knows? I think you're smart to put them aside for a while. If it makes a difference, you'll know it was at least one source. celiac disease is such a tricky, sneaky condition! For meself, I kept eliminating things, more and more, probably lots of "safe" things along with the poisonous snakes. Fact is...I'm just still sick, still "healing" if that's the word. I've become so paranoid about phood. I also am still searching for answers as I've not had a "healthy" day in more than 2 years...so I keep searching/waiting/searching/trying this and that. Wish the heck there was some group of TRUE REAL-LIFE "EXPERTS who really DID know the ins and outs....but like I said...such a sneaky, tricky snake we have!

Maybe I should have just left a private message instead of posting it here....but I know that we have a great group of understanding, caring fellow travelers here!

Hang in there Tawwmm, keep on keeping on :)

Wouldn't that be incredibly terrific. . .... . . .the pots and pans go, and the Great Fog lifts. . . ....Anything is possible, and if it were that simple you'll be hearing an uproarious WHOOOOOP! from us all....Wait, not WHOOP....I wanna quote Jooooles, but no one can do it like she: WHOOT! :rolleyes:

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions to it, so different for everyone.  
    • asaT
      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗
    • nanny marley
      I agree there I've tryed this myself to prove I can't eat gluten or lactose and it sets me back for about a month till I have to go back to being very strict to settle again 
    • trents
      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.
