Bevvie! My thoughts and prayers remain with you and your two friends with cancer. . . ..... :( My best friend is battling it, as well.......incredible, these healthy, vibrant middle-aged women who are suddenly blind-sided. Bev, I think your friends are really lucky for one reason: they have you as a supportive friend - - you would be the absolute BEST to have nearby.....so positive, supportive and strong. ... . .!!

Great news on the upped meds and the sudden productivity! :)

If we ever have a big Psilly Psummit, it will have to involve Bev's dad, my dad and Uncle Ray .... . . ....

And NOT my MIL.

:lol::lol: I was thinking exactly that as well, Pahtee. . . . .....as I was watching that clip I suddenly thought, "wow....... . . . .. that's dad's real nose......it's the same shape as mine!"

Growing up I only got to see him without any make-up/prosthetics/masks on occasion - - in the backyard, at breakfast. However, at the dinner table, at church, at parent-teacher interviews.....well, it was a crapshoot. . . . .

:rolleyes:

Yes, sometimes I think he must have. :lol:

For you Yanks, here is Don (of Hockey Night in Canada fame) in one o' me favorites:

Speaking of which......Jules asked about me dad and Angus 2 the kitteh. dad is doing well- taking him to NY next time I have to go and he is over the moon! I love that guy :wub: 79 years old and still ready to pah-tay! As far as he and the wee kitteh- it's LOVE! She is back to Hazel though- took her to the vet and it turns out she was a cat up for adoption there first so they all came out looking for Hazel and petting her..........she became Hazel again toot suite! My dad's place (retirement community- story for another day!) has huge windows in the living room and hazel sits on the couch and bats at the snowflakes :wub: :wub:

So glad to hear your dad is doing well and how fun for you both to go to NY for your next appt!!

Hazel, that's right (couldn't remember wee kitteh's name.....but funny I could remember Angus 2 :lol: ) Sounds like she has settled right in at your dad's place :)

Good news- thyroid med upped and restarted antibiotic- energy slowly returning (note: slowly being keyword) but made three pairs of earrings and a necklace today. I'll take it! :D

YAY!!!!! More energy for the Bevermeister!!! Hope it continues to go up every day :)

Are you sticking with the yoga? OMGosh I am so bummed I dropped off after the last several outbreaks, have to get that going again for myself because it makes a difference for me on so many different levels.

Still doing the treadmill though I am pleased to report, Sven would be happy with me :lol:

Hi everybody! Psorry for the psillyville boredom, I'm not bored....too tired to be bored. Bev-realy is making jewelry! Yay! I go through spurts with that. Seems I have only enough energy for one thing at a time...er sumpthin. Days I work, that's it. Days off I do studies....some days better than others at that.

Did Jewels say she does Yoga? I think about doing that....a lot. Can't even work up the energy for starting that :P:huh: Pretty soon it'll be warm enough to play outside, though...bet I'll find some energy somewhere to do that :lol:

Hey sillies-

Not much time for silly time these days- between all the craziness at work- we are having two audits here in just over a week- and the high patient volumes--by the time I get home at night I am done in. I have been cooking a lot these days as well and that has been taking some time and planning as well....John's job situation and recurring illness is also draining the silly from both of us. He sees the Dr tomorrow and hopefully it will provide answers. I also would love for it to be warm- even though I love the new house I am thinking I am getting cabin fever from winter. I want to go out and spend time in the new yard and start the garden and do fun stuff.\

work time again!

Bye sillies

      @catnapt,  Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract.  They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows.   Even beans have lectins.  You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract.   You may want to allow your digestive tract to rest for a week, then start on gluten in "normal" food, not in concentrated vital wheat gluten. This explains it well: Lectins, agglutinins, and their roles in autoimmune reactivities https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25599185/

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg).   Both are gluten free and free of other allergens.  I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25".  It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA.  It's a powder form of Vitamin A.  I was having trouble digesting fats at one point, but found I tolerated the powder form much better and have stuck with it since.   Tryptophan and Vitamin A help heal the intestines as well as improves skin health.  I get Dermatitis Herpetiformis and eczema flairs when my stomach is upset.  So I'm healing the outside as well as the inside.   I take one 1000 mg Tryptophan before bedtime.   With the Thiamine HCl, take 100 mg to start.  If you don't notice anything, three hours later take another. You can keep increasing your dose in this manner until you do notice improvement.  Remember not to take it in the evening so it won't keep you too energized to sleep. When I first started Thiamine HCl, taking 500 mg to 1000 mg to start was recommended.  If you've been thiamine insufficient for a while, you do notice a big difference.  It's like the start of a NASCAR race: Zoom, Zoom, turn it up!   This scared or made some people uncomfortable, but it's just your body beginning to function properly, like putting new spark plugs in your engine.  I took 1000 mg all at once without food.  It kicked in beautifully, but I got a tummy ache, so take with food.  I added in Thiamine TTFD and Benfotiamine weeks later and felt like I was Formula One racing.  So cool.  You may feel worse for a couple days as your body adjusts to having sufficient thiamine.  Feels sort of like you haven't cranked your engine for a while and it backfires and sputters, but it will settle down and start purring soon enough.  Adjust your dose to what feels right for you, increasing your dose as long as you feel improvement.  You can reach a plateau, so stay there for several days, then try bumping it up again.  If no more improvements happen, you can stay at the plateau amount and experiment with increasing your Thiamine TTFD.  It's like being your own lab rat.  LoL Yes, take one Benfotiamine at breakfast and one at lunch.  Take the B Complex at breakfast. Take the TTFD at breakfast and lunch as well.  I like to take the vitamins at the beginning of meals and the NeuroMag at the end of meals.   You may want to add in some zinc.  I take Thorne Zinc 30 mg at breakfast at the beginning of the meal.   Are you getting sufficient Omega Threes?  Our brains are made up mostly of fat.  Flaxseed oil supplements, sunflower seed oil supplements (or eat the seeds themselves) can improve that.  Cooking with extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil is also helpful.   @Wheatwacked likes phosphotidyl choline supplements for his Omega Threes.  He's also had dramatic health improvement by supplementing thiamine.  You're doing great!  Thank you for sharing your journey with us.  This path will smooth out.  Keep going!

      good luck! vital wheat gluten made me violently ill. I will touch the stuff ever again.  
    • catnapt
      I wouldn't consider this lucky. I can NOT tolerate the symptoms. And I googled it and I was not even getting 10 grams of gluten per day and I was extremely ill. They'd have to put me in the hospital. I'm not kidding.   I will have my first appt with a GI dr on March 4th   I will not eat gluten again - at least not on purpose   they are going to have to come up with a test that doesn't require it.

      What Thiamine Hydrochloride brand do you take? Is it like the other vitamins I have added? What brand Tryptophan and amount do you take. Thanks
