Hey--I just had a thought. If we ever all get together, we should bring our squeeky phootwear and do a little musical number. Jess could choreograph the thing--it would be kinda like playing the bells :lol: Except wif our pheet :P

Patteigh! What a great idea. All squeaky footwear at the ready. For percussion, we could incorporate this new popping noise that is happening with my new overuse injury atop my foot. Anybody have any cracking knees? They would work well, too. OH! And if we wait until May, when my mold allergy kicks in, we'll have my whistling nose at our disposal.

Now, THIS could collaborate into a veritable symphony. . ........!

In addition to squeeky shoes, I have a right big toe that will crack at will. Might be good for that perfect flourish at the end of a number :rolleyes::lol: Ya know, instead of a triangle, er sumphin.

All this started because of my chirping shoes??? :o

.....and I don't even have them anymore! They would surely have been the highlight of the symphony! ;)

Jan-knit!!.....Your MIL can meet MY MIL!!!! Does she like to garden?

..........and by the way.........

<_<

.....where is the pic-a-nic pic???

I leave you psillies with one simple task.........to bug Jan-knit for the pic..........and you fail miserably

tsk....tsk.....tsk

:rolleyes:

I is busy baking all my gluten-free, potato-starch-free, soy-free, corn-free, citric acid-free, nightshade-free. phood-free baked goods. Clay says I'm glad you started baking again and I says, well, what choice have I?? Pretty soon I will be reverting to the mud pies of me childhood which were a lot more fun and you did't have to worry about making a mess. I has a WHITE lino floor here; whoever put that in was a masochist. I have a darkish wood floor at home that hides so much!!!

Em if you is going to go as far as Soozle's, you might as well come on up to the lake, too. Wine flows from the faucets!

Hope Max is getting better and Velcro sticks to some nice peeps!

"I's busy making a Creative Writing course so me students learn to NEVER split an infinitive (or dangle a ballcock participle)." I caught that one :lol: :lol: Bet you were just trying to see if we was awake!

Well, must dust this gluten-free flour from the keyboard and resume making a mess of my kitchen floor!

Maxie's 'crit is up two points, and the three of us just had a glorious nap. Feelin' pretty decadent right about now.

AND I know where the gluten-free pizza is...

Odd bit of news. Forks, WA, which is basically a lumber town, has been in dire financial straits for years, until the vampires came...

Apparently the hotel(s) are packed with all the "Twilighters" coming to visit.

Kinda nice that a myth can save a town.

Phunny, there is a short article in the Ottawa Citizen today about how the very same thing has happened to a town in southern Alberta that was really feeling the pain of the recession, but has recently had a resurgence in tourism since the latest sci-fi blockbuster came out this spring:

      Dang......did it again and yeah I should admit I am 63 with clumsy phone thumbs. I started feeling better quickly and a doctor a year later said I had to eat  poison (gluten) every day for a month so he could formally diagnose me and NO FREAKING WAY. I couldn't then and can't imagine putting my body through that crap (no pun intended) on purpose ever again.  Why ingest poison for a month to have some doctor say Hey, All you Have To Do Is Never Eat poison Again..

      15 years ago my best friend 'diagnosed' me as Celiac.

Oh my heavens, within 3 days, no lie, I felt human again. Took me about a y
    • Scott Adams
      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.
