WELL. . .... .. . ....as a matter of fact, someone DID show up considerably earlier than the time I had told her to.

MY SISTER. :o

Yep, told her to be here @ 6:45, as everyone else was arriving @ 6:30 and would be securely ensconced. She showed up at five to six.

:rolleyes:

SoOOoOoOooo......she had some idea that there were more than her immediate family about to arrive, what with the myriad fruit and dessert trays, the litres of wine`and cases of beer lined up.....DUH.

It was a PHAB party. Lotsa cleaning up, not much food left over, and not a single person tried to drunkenly dive into the ho'tub. 'Twas all good.

Well.......Once more, I have been dealing with hospitals. My brother very quickly came down with a serious case of the flu and pneumonia. I didn't know he was sick til he called from the hospital Critical Care on Thursday......was so bad he called for an ambulance. Turns out, he was also very close to going into a diabetic coma. He didn't know he was diabetic. Blood sugar was 485. He has been diagnosed as type 1.

He's doing much better, now, and it looks like we will be able to take him home tomorrow.He's thinking about asking his diabetes counselor out on a date :lol:

Poor Jyaghnutt. . ... . . ..:( This sucketh.

I am suddenly reminded of a drole li'l joke my dad used to tell:

This fellow had been suffering from excruciating headaches for some time, and finally went to a doctor. After a thorough exam, the physician called the man into his office and said, "Well, I'm not exactly sure what is causing your headaches, but we've found a cure for them: you'll have to be castrated." The man, needless to say, was taken aback, and told his doctor that he would try to bear the pain. But as time went on, the headaches only got worse. Finally, the poor fellow was driven back to the doctor. "All right, I guess I'll have the operation," he said. When it was all over, the man was understandably depressed, and his physician told him, "I recommend you begin life anew--start over from this point."

So the man decided to take this advice and went to a men's shop for a new set of clothes. The proprietor said, "Starting with the suit, looks like you take about a 38-regular." "That's right," exclaimed the man, "how'd you know?" "Well, when you've been in the business as long as I have, you get pretty good at sizing a man up," replied the salesman. "Now, for a shirt, looks like about a 15 long." "Right again," the man said. The proprietor suggested, "And for undershorts, I'd say a size 36." "There's your first mistake," the man said, "I've worn 34's for years." "No, you're a size 36 if I've ever seen one," said the owner. The man replied, "I ought to know what size undershorts I wear, and I'll take 34." The owner shook his head and said "Well all right, if you insist, but they're going to pinch your balls and give you headaches!"

:lol:

:o Lisa, and Jiangnut, so sorry I hollered at yous. :huh: I didn't mean it :) . Your poor brother, Lisa; must wonder what on earth has hit him. And your sinuses, Jiangnut, t'is haynus the problems they create. Would ban 'em if I could. I had one (sinus infection) that lasted for several months thru innumerable antibiotics; t'was Augmentin that finally killed it (and me--c. Diff and candida after that lot!). Maybe even gluten intolerance :rolleyes: So they did this scan and said I had an abnormality and they wanted to do surgery, but I found out that is awful, and I said no thanks. They haven't really bothered me since. :blink: I dare them :ph34r:

You guys must be warming up because the chill has moved to this hemisphere, high of 50 degrees yesterday in the height of the summer holidays. Lots of campers are heading home. Rain, rain, everywhere. Floods...well, it's just not summer. I guess we had summer the first week in Jan. :( I did enjoy it :blink: Looking forward to my real summer in June.

Spending the day putting together my new "new" recipe book, the one without potato starch and nightshades. Tired of all sheets of paper, bookmarks, gf1 and gf2 document files, scraps from the newspaper, notes in notebooks, never know where to find anythink. :P

      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

      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.
