Ah, Miss Mary is a book in herself.

Wow, Shrooomie... .. is she ever! How lucky all were and are to have Miss Mary in their lives.... .she does sound like an extraordinary, awe-inspiring woman! Like a character from Bryce Courtenay. .. .. ...have you read any of his novels? Miss Mary is there, in a number of his unforgettable heroines.. . .. .....:)

Just got back from the drug store. Went to the Shoppers Drug Mart that is further away than my regular haunt, as it has a bigger freezer section. I happened to hit EVERY red light (should have counted - - probably eight intersections). It was hell. I'm closin' my eyes again.. . . . ...... :rolleyes:

was only ONE night - - less than 24 hours, and eight of that was in the car with a WHINING dingo............drove me MAD.....sedated her but still she paced MADLY on the way down...........and, she could not FIND me in the house!!! :lol: :lol: would hear my voice from somewhere (three floors and also with outdoor living areas)............was the funniest thing EVER!!! she had a GRAND time........squirrels aplenty ;)

Poor Dingo-dog. Last time she was in a car, an evil vacuum attacked her & threw her out the window. No wonder she was nervous. I probably couldn't get Puppy back in a car after that.

:lol: I'm still three or so pages behind but........wait until we teach her our magic symbols :lol: :lol:

And WHO is this Miss Mary - is she your aunt? sounds amazing......Bevel is right, we are going to be SPEEDING around wrecklessly when we is quite old ;)

Yeah, she is amazing. Just on Thursday she was talking about buying her granddaughter's car she left behind when she went back to CA. I said, Maary, what would you do with it? She (defensively): I've got the money! I CAN DRIVE!!! Me, Yeah, I'm sure you can, but safely? legally? She: Welllll, I don't have a license--do you think they would give me one? (Probably hasn't driven a car in 50 years! :lol: ) She has trouble cutting off telephone calls, but wants a computer because she is missing out on so much, and she knows it. But imagine, Mary and a computer!!! BWaHaHaHaHa!. If only she knew how we curse the darned things sometimes. Her love of a computer would last no longer than the first error message, which would proably happen in the first ten seconds.

Wow, Shrooomie... .. is she ever! How lucky all were and are to have Miss Mary in their lives.... .she does sound like an extraordinary, awe-inspiring woman! Like a character from Bryce Courtenay. .. .. ...have you read any of his novels? Miss Mary is there, in a number of his unforgettable heroines.. . .. .....:)

Have nae read any of his books, Em, but often contemplated them. At one point I decided I was going to write Miss Mary's story and even started taking tape recorders over for that purpose, but I was too late, unfortunately, as the stories became more and more rambling and circuitous and repetitive and just a stream of consciousness without any connections. I tried to transcribe and make some sense of it but it was a hopeless task. :( Sad, because she keeps saying, "I could write a book!" and if we could get it all together between us we could for sure.

Just push Alt and a number, and see what you get! You do need to highlight and increase the size, as they show up rather small.

Even easier, find someone's post that you like and hit 'reply', then erase the quote notations.

I'm using a Dell laptop and I have no "locks" at all except the caps lock.

There's sumphin here called "prnt scrn" on the upper right next to "insert" and "delete". :blink:

      Potential celiac need advice

      By itsdunerie · Posted

      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.
