Ho hum. I apparently have gotten myself a stress fracture, involving the second and third metatarsil on the top of my foot. Happened suddenly during a step class ten days ago - - felt sudden, real pain as I was doing my jumping around.......only a matter of time. Too much pounding and punishing overuse through the years. :angry:

OUCH!!!!....Overly Svenning and the inevitable injuries <_< ....but EXCELLENT news on the crutch tip!!!!! (will it match in coloUr????? :unsure: )

Hobble be GONE Em!!!

Hey sillies . . . more guests arriving tonight so that means more cleaning. But I just wanted to tell Emily that if she didn't spend so much time and energy with Sven, she would have never gotten a stress fracture!!!

Yes....... . . . .Sven and I are now about to change our relationship, at least temporarily. I won't be able to see him every day, and when I do, things will be.....well, different. My heart rate won't be getting as high.......not as breathless, won't be leaving the ground with both feet. .. . ......

Gawd, sounds like I'm marrying him. . . ...... :lol:

Who are all these people descending upon Jyaghnutt? :unsure: Not the in-laws.....they will be living down the street....... ... . ..

Hi Susan--Welcome to madness :lol: Sounds like you've come to the right place! Make yerselph at home--we spell phunny, Emily's harmless, and other than that just jump right in. :D

Ok sillies--I keep having this dream where I'm walking down a street in the downtown area of my hometown. All is well until I enter a store--then no matter which door I try to exit I don't recognize the area. Suddenly, it's a desolate, industrial kind of place. No one around. :unsure:

I had it again this morning just before I woke up--very weird.

WIH?

Perfect for a deppresso. In this dream, do you know what kind of store this is? Do you feel that your future looks flat ( in real life). Are you in any kind of rut? Do you still have things to look forward to? Do you feel at all kind of locked into your currant situatio, even if thats a good place? I dunno.

A ballcock is whatever you imagine it to be :lol: A Yeti, last I heard, was still a snowman, but I was not here when he made his original appearance. Ditto for when Sven came along; you just have to kinda go wif da phlow and pick things up in context as you go along. You will think that sons are husbands and husbands are sons, and mebbe even make a phool of yerselph over what you don't know, but everybody luvs that anyway, the more phoolish the better. You can never make too much of a phool of yerselph here; dat's what's nice about it.

. . . as oppose to just after you woke up!!! :lol:

Sounds to me like you need to go back in the store and do some shopping!!! . . . Yep, you apparently need some retail therapy!!!

I'm not sure about this. Is a ballcock something that's found inside a toilet?

Yes it is!!! We just seem to like the word and try to use it in everyday converstation as much as possible . . . :lol:

Welcome, Susan . . . tis a great thread that you've jumped into . . . some really phunnee people . . . also, there's a money back guarantee. If you find that you are not enjoying yourself, just return your unused portion of the thread and someone . . . not me . . . will refund your purchase price (less delivery fees, of course).

OK . . . I'm stalling . . . and actually letting the vacuum cleaner cool down. I've got lots to do yet and the motor is hot!!! Four hours before Cincinnati friends arrive but Skeeter has horse back riding lessons during that time too.

TaTa for now.

Stick around Susan, we'll help you find your inner sillie!!

I find that dumping a potted plant over near anything that needs to be cleaned works really well. When whoever shows up you greet them with exasperation saying "I just finish cleaning and the cat goes and does this. Do you mind if we just hang out in the other room?"

I have a lot of plants :ph34r: :ph34r:

But you already made me larf by calling yerself a grumpy old ass. Methinks you are anything but. I have two phunny bones and I'd lend you one buit they're not gluten free (gawd, I miss Funny Bones with milk!)

Patteigh, is this a TexAss desolate, industrial kinda space. Is you feeling a bit lost and lonely down dere?

But more importantly, do you still have yer clothes on? :P :P

      Gluten-Free Diet Linked to Reduced Inflammation and Improved Outcomes in Multiple Sclerosis (+Video)

However, my symptoms improved dramatically with high dose thiamine hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and Thiamine TTFD. Thiamine deficiency symptoms overlap with MS symptoms, including changes on brain MRIs. Thiamine deficiency affected my eyes (light sensitivity),...

I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that y...

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
