Forgive me ignorance M....do you mean Dermatitis Herpetiformis?? <sp?>

I thought that was blisters??? :unsure: ....no blisters on Tel

Nik, my DH doesn't always form into blisters. I get it rarely now, but when I do it's raised red splotches that hurt (not much itching). Sometines a sore that appears alone will blister after a day or two, but not always. They look like the picture of the breakout on the person's back about halfway down this article (though thankfully, never this bad):

I remember someone saying in a DH thread that the condition can vary somewhat and present a little differently from celiac to celiac.

Food fer thought!

Actually, it would be good if Tel's rash WAS DH........then you'd know what it was! :)

Amanda--do you mean a veggie garden or flowers?

In general, you should wait until after the last frost for flowers, shrubs and things like that. I'm not too familiar with veggie gardens. I used to have one years ago....there are a couple things I think you can plant early, but I used to have tomatoes, peppers, zucchini, and lettuce--and those I planted in probably mid-late May.

You can get the ground ready earlier, though--if you need to till. That way you'll be all set to go when it gets warm enough.

I'm sure other green-thumbed sillies will be of more help :D

I have tried 5 times to reply and everytime someone comes to my desk and interrupts me..... can't they see I am busy!!!

I am planting tomatoes, sugar snap peas, cucumbers, maybe lettuce but in the front of the house I am planting flowers (not sure what) and by the fence and back porch some sunflowers. I am excited!!!!

My av is simply in need of a updating.

My plans are coming together for the FL trip for my mom. We are heading there for mothers day weekend. I am glad I held off on plane tickets. Now Southwest has one way tickets for $55. Originally it was 69 which was still cheap. I can't way. We are going to take her for a ride to the Keys. :):)

How exciting! Yes, there are some very good deals on plane tickets especially if you can get them well ahead of time.

.........so there's this 4th grade boy who always notices when I wear my boots..........seems to be obsessed with my boots.

Yesterday he informed me that I hadn't worn my boots in 3 days :rolleyes:

He often calls me Goldilocks...I am not blonde....but I think it's mainly because another assistant pulling cafeteria duty with me has the last name of Bear....so she's Mama Bear

..today he called me Curly! :huh:

pretty lame, but that's all I got.........

my life is boring :(

I'm here. That is, I'm back...

I once was lost but now am found. :blink:

We have been having trouble for a while with our internet connection at home. After multiple calls to 1-800-Call-India, I got to talk to somebody on the same continent that I am on yesterday, and it was determined that perhaps we really did have a problem. A technician was scheduled to come out and look at the circuit from our end.

Good news, part one. The appointment was for between 5 and 9 pm. He called at 6:15 to confirm, and arrived about ten minutes later.

He was on site for about two hours, doing all sorts of different tests. We are a good distance from the telephone company central office, near the limits of DSL technology. The wiring in our neighboUrhood is over thirty years old (as is the wiring in the house). Problems happen.

Good news, part two. Once it was established that the problem was theirs, the tech added some balancing equipment to our end of the circuit, and some changes were made to their end.

I'm back. :) :)

1-800 call india---sounds like Verizon's tech support! Hi Peter!!!! Long time!!!

Hi Ptaum- nice to see you!

Hi all sillies! Its warm this morning!!! Last night I made PB fudge-- first time ever making something like that. It actually turned out as well. I was happy!

Mornin', Gang!

Gross me oot the door. .. .... :o

So, did you finish him off, Jess? This would be a truly horrid situation for me. Being presented with a dead rat is bad, but I would just need to wrap it up in newspaper (about a million pieces) and throw it into the garbage bag. Now, an alive one.....

I couldn't just do that. I would have to kill it...... :unsure: .... . ...or leave it alone to die on its own. . . .....or keep trying to entice the cat to finish the job. . ... :unsure: . . . ..

Not good. My cats seem to know that I would have great trouble with a gravely wounded creature. Anything they have brought me has always been dead. Totally. Not twitching, even . . . ...

:ph34r: I cowered in the middle of my bed yelling EEWWWW GET HIM!

He was pretty near the end already...

If the critter looks like a fresh toy, I try to liberate it. If it looks like they've been playing together for a while, I just stay out of it. I figure the worst has already transpired for the victim, and it's kinder to let the cat bring about the end, rather than leaving the prey to die slowly out in the cold. (Yes, I have thought through this)

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.

      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!!!
