We Canucks should be sending over our monster snow removal equipment, via barge, to help you blokes out. This is one of Ottawa's machines from the snow plow fleet, during a typical clean-up after a dusting of snow last week on one of our main streets.....

I can't be sure.... soon we will have to decide..... heating OR food??

Currently resorting to 'old school' methods...... taping up drafty windows with clear plastic, hot water bottles in bed.....um baking our own (gluten-free) bread ('cos the shops have all but run out of any :blink:)

Hot toddies and thermal layers....tiger pig fully operational as cat bed/draft excluder/blankie.

We may just make it......

Happy New Year all you silliesacs!

Phairilly chillie for some of yuse folks out there. We are struggling with the mid 30's here in DC today. Almost an inch of snow pummeled us just the other day too. Almost couldn't see the sidewalk in a few places where the drifts piled up. The birds don't like all this snow, but Muffin-cat won't even go outdoors in it.

On a more serious note, I have finnally made something posistive out of the celiac disease experience. I have opened my own lguten Free Cafe! Here is a link where yuo can check out the treats. Our special today is Martian Brain Bake made with free range Martians. Better hurry it won't last long!

Jestgar Rising Star

Wow Nik. Keep good spirits about the whole thing, it'll all be over soon enough.

mushroom Proficient

I wuz thinking of you, Nik, when on our TV weather they said that the cold was about to descend on London and the south-east, :unsure: Like it hadn't been cold there before last night :blink: ???? Also saw a space shot of the Chilly Isles and the whole thing was white, from bow to stern :huh:

Yep, plenty of hot toddies and snuggling on order. And it's good Alzey is home, really!! Another body to add to the ambient temperature. I won't dare mention our weather for fear of being booted off the board.

:lol:

Men!!! or more specifically, Husbands!!! Looking at the macaroon cake I made to take to some neighbours' farewell elevenses this morning--"Is that cake made from scraaatch???" Er, yeah, ya haven't seen any little boxes around marked macaroon cake, have ya?? He thinks all our baking comes out of little boxes??? With all my restrictions??? "Oh well, they must make something for someone like you." Oh yeah??? :rolleyes: Yer damned lucky it's gluten free even. You find it, I'll buy it. Namaste spice cake this summer maybe. But anywho, who says scratch is that hard?? Ya just have to not miss out any of the ingredients :blink: (or instructions, for that matter :ph34r: ).

Stay in and stay warm, Chillies. You'll find me at the beach if you come a'callin'.

I believe Paul's been here before . . . I'll go dig him up . . . does the phrase anal seepage ring a bell with anyone??

Darn210 Enthusiast

Yeah . . . I thought he looked familiar . . . :P

OK, fair warning, this first video is a little crude, but could be humorous also. Wait it out, it gets better after the first 10 seconds or so.

Is it his ship that's stuck or his hiney? :lol: ... Anyways, if he hails from Nova Scotia his hiney should be tough enough, unless he usually drags it off to Brazil every winter :ph34r: Let's see, Nova Scotia, ship's captain....fisherman??? Or Brazil, ship's captain....sailing cruises around the Caribbean??? Vast extremes there :o

And goodness no, no seepsicles. Now *that* is holy crap!!

      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. Her little nephew had been formally diagnosed and her observations of me dealing with brain fog, stomach problems and other stuff had her convincing me to try going gluten free. 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.
