Bunnie--I was gonna suggest stroganoff, too. That would be really good. Sour cream, or 0% Fage yogurt, which tastes like sour cream ;)

Yep--I've taken steroids and I always felt better on them. My husband got hyper recently on them after a dental procedure and swears he will never take then again :P

Oh! Oh! Oh! I almost forgot! My sweet hunk of a boyfriend decided to get me treats for my birthday (April 30) And went to this gluten free bakery a town over and ordered me a heart shaped chocolate cake, got muffins, three cupcakes, and a brownie. All I asked for was a cupcake!!! But the lady who started this bakery went to school to be a dessert artist before she found out she had Celiac and decided to pursue her dream gluten free anyway. OH. MY. GOD. These are the best cupcakes and cake I've ever had ever period, screw gluten free. We gave my brother in law a (small) piece of cake and he came back up the stairs a few minutes later with chocolate all over his hands and face going "That was gluten free?!?!" Oh, my lord. Sugar heaven. And she's completely dairy free too, can't even tell. Creamiest frosting on the planet.

POeter is again mentioning his great, big deck.. . . ...

Gahhh!!! Tooooo funny :lol:

Well, Psills, my first day as drama queen was quite eventful.

On my way to the inauguration I not only locked myself out of the house a-gain, but locked my keys (and purse,and cell phone,and COFFEE :o ) in my car. What an idiot inconvenience.

Then, after the festivities and ball and "Llammas On Ice", I was subjected to the most tortuous thing e'er invented (ready?)--

a trans-v/nal ultrasound

Any of you ever had one of those?

Has never come across POeter's great, big deck before... maybe I never will.. :o

Ok, could someone please get over here and restrain me? I'm still on steroids from the rash I had (turned out to be sumac,

Oh, and the really special part? To get me gluten free prednisone they had to give me one milligram pills. I had to take FORTY pills for FOUR days. Thankfully they're very little. Then thirty pills for four days..... Oy.

Get off those 'roids, bunnie! They will turn you into a raving maniac, or a eunuch?? And forty a day for four days?? My God woman... you'll never be able to take them things again. I got totally allergic to them from poison oak infestations (brought in by me kittersers.) Besides, you won't be able to compete in the Tour de France or the Olympics! What in? I dunno...I'm sure there's something you can do real well at! Does they have a cookin' Olympics? Any other ideas?

Almost phorgot! :oAww Hellll to the new Kween Minimome Hope your rain supreme! I see you are already aware of the offishul kourt gesture :lol::lol:

I curtsy to our new Queen in best British (stiffly formal) colonial (much more irreverent) manner. "The Queen is dead; Long Live The Queen" May she reign justly and with wisdom, and an enhanced sense of psillly! :lol:

Don't Queens have "peepul" to do these things? :o Her Majesty should not be subjected to such trivia and should not just be popping out for coffee. There is responsibilties for royalty here.

Goooood Morning, Psillies!

Was in visiting my dad last night, and while I sat chatting with him, a nurse came in and said they were going to move him downstairs for a CT scan AND an ultrasound.

Damn.. . . . next time I will be sure to have a small container of sparkles in me purse.

:rolleyes:

Hey all! Nother gllooommy day...but at least the rain has stopped for a couple of few hours.

Psuess....in order to age gracefully (at least without screaming and tearing out the hair) is to look for the advantages. There are many! While I have never been "beautiful", I realize at this time in my life that I never will be, and don't have to be concerned about it anymore. I don't have to care. If someone has a problem with my looks, it's their problem and not mine! :D Therefore, I have no difficulty with going to the store *fresh* from the garden complete with dirt under my nails and dirt stains on my jeans. If my hair is not perfect...no sweat...I love to wear caps! I save lots of money by not wearing makeup and perfumes. I don't have to impress anyone, I just have to be happy with who I am. I don't have to take (too much) crap from anyone, I have enough crap of my own.

Anyone who is a real and genuinely decent person will see beyond the exterior to the real, wonderful person you are inside. Those are the people who are my friends and who I want to surround me in my (all too short) life. These people can deal with, and even love, my odd quirks, sometimes strange moods, and the whole range of things that make me individual.

Wishing I could help you to find acceptance and peace within *your* world. 'Tis a lovely world we live in once you get past the crud that other people toss around in it :D

Minimomi...Love the Av! You're a great new neighbor to have in Psillyville!

Hmmmmmm......trans V/invasion.....never want to try that particular joy-ride! The yearly humiliation is bad enough!!!

Glad to hear that Manda-panda is all right! Hope she comes to the surface soon and avoids drowning!

Well......back to the housework. Hoping to play outside soon and stay dry at the same time.

Hey Jude.....hope your hanging in there all right!

flourgirl Apprentice

Hey Bunnyrabbitt! I was on steroids just once. Doc thought it would help tendonitis (I was having problems with lots of inflammation in lots of places :( ) I had a severe allergic reaction and thought I was literally going to die! Probably wasn't smart, but I stopped cold and tossed them all. They are so nasty, I would tell anyone to be cautious, and only to consider them a last alternative. I guess many people take them safely...hope they are helping you. Take care!

      oops my gluten challenge was only 12 days It started Jan 21s and ended Feb 1st   worst 12 days of my life   Does not help that I also started on a thiazide-like drug for rule in/out renal calcium leak at the exact same time No clue if that could have been symptoms worse 🤔
    • Wheatwacked
      Welcome to the forum @Known1, What reaction were you expecting? Pipingrock.com High Potency Vitamin D3, 2000 IU, 250 Quick Release Softgels $6.89 I've have been taking the 10,000 IU for close to 10 years. When I started with vitamin D I worked my way up to 10000 over several weeks.  Even at 8000 I felt no noticeable difference.  Then after a few days at 10000 it hit Whoa, sunshine in a bottle.  celiac disease causes malabsorption of dietary D and you've poor UV access.  It took me from 2015 to 2019 to get my 25(OH)D just to 47 ng/ml.  Another two years to get to 80.  70 to 100 ng/ml seems to be the body's natural upper homeostasis  based on lifeguard studies.  Dr. Holick has observed the average lifeguard population usually has a vitamin D 3 level of around 100 ng/ml. Could it be that our normal range is too low given the fact that ¾ or more of the American population is vitamin D deficient? Your Calcium will increase with the vitamin D so don't supplement calcium unless you really need it.  Monitor with PTH  and 25(OH)D tests. Because of your Marsh 3 damage you need to ingest way more than the RDA of any supplement to undo your specific deficiencies. I believe you are in the goiter belt.  Unless you have reason not to, I recommend pipingrock's Liquid Iodine for price and quality.  The RDA is 150 to 1100 mcg.  In Japan the safe upper level is set at 3000 mcg.  Start with one drop 50 mcg to test for adverse response and build up.  I found 600 mcg (12 drops) a day is helping repair my body.  Iodine is necessary to healing.  90% of daily iodine intake is excreted in urine.  A Urine Iodine Concentration (UIC) can tell how much Iodine you got that day.  The thyroid TSH test will not show iodine deficiency unless it is really bad.

      I don't know if I am getting sufficient Omega Threes. I read about  phosphotidyl choline may cause heart issues. I will have o do further research on heathy Omega 3 supplements or from foods. Is there a blood test that can tell you everything level in your system such as Thiamine, Benfotiamine levels etc? Thanks

      If lectins were my problem, I would react to wheat germ (the highest source of wheat lectins) and beans. I don't. I only react to bread and pasta, which are the highest sources of gluten. Therefore, my issue is wheat-specific (Gluten/ATIs), not a general lectin issue.   I have eaten a supposedly high lectin diet (I say supposedly because lectin content in these foods is greatly reduced by proper cooking and I eat very few of those foods raw, and even then, rarely!!) for years. My health has improved greatly on my whole foods plant forward diet. I have asked all my drs and a registered dietician about my diet, asked if eating such a high amnt of fiber might interfere with the digestion of any other nutrients and the answer has always been NO.     while doing the gluten challenge I did not eat ANY wheat germ (since it doesn't have hardly any gluten, and I was too sick from the bread and pasta to want to eat much anyway) I will NOT put that poison in my body again. That was a horrific experience and if this is what most celiac patients have to deal with, I am very sorry for them I don't care if I have celiac or NCGS I won't intentionally cause myself that much pain and suffering it's not worth it.  
    • knitty kitty
      @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/
