You guys is funny!

I'll go back tomorrow morning, and my phone will be charged so I'll know the time. My plan is to be there at 6 am, and since I'll really know the time I WILL jump up and down and look like an ijit.

Just stopped back in for a second breakfast and a shower. Headin' out to walk the streets for a while. Amazing how de-motivating this place is.

And I did stop again and tell someone about the camera. Good eyes!

I went back to where Jess gave Hawaii time and compared it to my time. It will be 12 noon here.

Noon here and in Ottawa. I'll be at the store and will try to look in. When I came by today, Lisa posted that Jess was early, so I just had a peek, but didn't stay and so missed the Second Coming as well. ;)

I am so conphused! How can you see someone on the beach in Hiawatha from anywhere, anytime? Told you, I got nuttin goin upstairs. :huh: It's still cold here, but at least the sun pooped out for awhile. I haven't seen it for so long, it skeered me. I thaught it was an IUD or a flying saucer, or sumptin like that! It glowed! :o

Jest - I need Hawaii... HHHHHelp!

Amylase - I meant to ask if you were diabetic.

Liza - Are you in the great and growing pool of the unemployed? New to it and scared to death. Anything good to say about it? :(

Gotta go fix dinner...Bacon-wrapped pork fillets, home-grown mashed potatoes and gravy, a corn and basil souffle, and choice of broccoli or asparagus. :) Yeah, I'm upset and cookin up a storm. Next week budget allows for cat-food! Dry! :angry:

GAH... . . . a giant, glowing IUD, floating through the air..... the stuff that gynecological nightmares are made of! <_<

Hey.. . . . .why does the word "gynecological" have the word "logical" in it? Little logic there. . . ..how logical are pap smears, mammograms, trans-vaginal ultrasounds... . . ...... even childbirth itself seems to defy reason... . . . . . :huh:

:lol:

Amylase - I meant to ask if you were diabetic.

Yep. POeter and I are both type ones. And so is Oliver!

So... . . . is Jyesss gonna put up that Hawaii link again early tomorrow so that we can get onto it at noon? I am so out to lunch with high-tech matters......if I just click on the link at noon, I should see her live? So confusing and mind-boggling........please, just give me some misplaced modifiers to figure out.... ...... <_<:rolleyes:

I dunno. But we can just go back to page 2393 and click on the link there.....and yep, she should be there! :) You may have to hit 'refresh' if it doesn't play.

Hi Psillies- I didn't know Geoss was in Hawaii already! Will try to check at 12:00 and see her all tanned and relaxed (but up at 5 am? WTH?)

ranger Sleuzen and Curly Lisa- I am sorry about the jobs. These is hard times. Kurt's comapny just got cut in half, although luckily he kept his job and insurance because we would be so screwed without it (as in living with his parents). I know something will happen for you guys, but it is so hard until it does. Lisa- I'm still angry about the firing- so LAME!!!!!!!!!!

I told jack the same thing, and he yelled, "WOW! You're gonna see Jess from Washington? The crazy scientist with the neat cats? Move over!"

He's so cute- I love our Ripper!

Happy Birthday (late methinks) to our wee Al!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nik- I hope you feel better soon!

Patty- Congratulations on yer new home of the Psilly Psummit! You and Mark must be so happy!

Well, we went north to see the foliage and instead we saw ( :ph34r:) snaugh and tonight we are getting ( :ph34r: ) snaugh.

Happy B-late B-day B-Al! How about calling him "Al ,Al, the ladies pal"?

So, Peotra Irano Evilosovich....all Muscovite ducks have to do is go to that page and click on the link? And we will see Comrade Gessmadscientistovich "On The Beatch".

      Currently, there are no tests for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out and we do have testing for celiac disease. There are two primary test modalities for diagnosing celiac disease. One involves checking for antibodies in the blood. For the person with celiac disease, when gluten is ingested, it produces an autoimmune response in the lining of the small bowel which generates specific kinds of antibodies. Some people are IGA deficient and such that the IGA antibody tests done for celiac disease will have skewed results and cannot be trusted. In that case, there are IGG tests that can be ordered though, they aren't quite as specific for celiac disease as the IGA tests. But the possibility of IGA deficiency is why a "total IGA" test should always be ordered along with the TTG-IGA. The other modality is an endoscopy (scoping of the upper GI track) with a biopsy of the small bowel lining. The aforementioned autoimmune response produces inflammation in the small bowel lining which, over time, damages the structure of the lining. The biopsy is sent to a lab and microscopically analyzed for signs of this damage. If the damage is severe enough, it can often be spotted during the scoping itself. The endoscopy/biopsy is used as confirmation when the antibody results are positive, since there is a small chance that elevated antibody test scores can be caused by things other than celiac disease, particularly when the antibody test numbers are not particularly high. If the antibody test numbers are 10x normal or higher, physicians will sometimes declare an official diagnosis of celiac disease without an endoscopy/biopsy, particularly in the U.K. Some practitioners use stool tests to detect celiac disease but this modality is not widely recognized in the medical community as valid. Both celiac testing modalities outlined above require that you have been consuming generous amounts of gluten for weeks/months ahead of time. Many people make the mistake of experimenting with the gluten free diet or even reducing their gluten intake prior to testing. By doing so, they invalidate the testing because antibodies stop being produced, disappear from the blood and the lining of the small bowel begins to heal. So, then they are stuck in no man's land, wondering if they have celiac disease or NCGS. To resume gluten consumption, i.e., to undertake a "gluten challenge" is out of the question because their reaction to gluten is so strong that it would endanger their health. The lining of the small bowel is the place where all of the nutrition in the food we consume is absorbed. This lining is made up of billions of microscopically tiny fingerlike projections that create a tremendous nutrient absorption surface area. The inflammation caused by celiac disease wears down these fingers and greatly reduces the surface area needed for nutrient absorption. Thus, people with celiac disease often develop iron deficiency anemia and a host of other vitamin and mineral deficiencies. It is likely that many more people who have issues with gluten suffer from NCGS than from celiac disease. We actually know much more about the mechanism of celiac disease than we do about NCGS but some experts believe NCGS can transition into celiac disease.
    • SamAlvi
      Thank you for the clarification and for taking the time to explain the terminology so clearly. I really appreciate your insight, especially the distinction between celiac disease and NCGS and how anemia can point more toward celiac. This was very helpful for me.

      Hi,  My 7 year daughter has complained of this in the past, which I thought were part of her glutening symptom, but more recently I have come to figure out it's part of her histamine overload symptom. This one symptom was part of her broader profile, which included irritability, extreme hunger, confusion, post-nasal drip. You might want to look up "histamine intolerance". I wish I had known of this at the time of her diagnosis, life would have been much easier.  I hope you are able to figure out. 
    • lizzie42
      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior? 
    • trents
      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.
