Rachelle feels all alone here, she's wondering where everyone is at! :P

Rachelle cannae breathe now. Her current patient and the patient's husband must smoke 10 pack of cig's a day-each :ph34r: -and Rachelle is so allergic that she is sneezing, coughing and sucking back the snot. She had to come out of the room for a few minutes to take a breath. Rachelle needs to go outside and breathe in some of that Portland rainy air she loves so much! ;)

Karen feels bad for R that she is hacking, wheezing & goobering. Karen hopes she is able to get out & breathe some good humid air to clear out her passages.

Karen wishes to thank :angry: Patti for reminding Karen that she needs to put in some laundry.

Puppy is going to take Karen out for a walk soon as it is sunny & 40.

Lisa is at school work and only has a second, but Lisa wanted to say that Rayshell is lucky she is not here with pubescent body odor mixed in with a truckload of Axe cologne :greenpukeyface;

Rachelle is a truly talented treadmill artist (pronounce ar teese) . Karen can barely stay on the treadmill forwards.

Neroli flunked treadmill in gym class (oh, wait, they didn't have treadmills when she was in gym class :unsure: )

Patti never used a treadmill until she was an adult. Her gym classes were decidedly old school....then again, so is she :lol:

Nik--I don't know what could be causing Tel's heart to be not as strong as they would like :( ....please let us know when he has the MRI. I did have some cardiac testing a few years ago, but nothing beyond the echo stress test.

Neroli knows very little about the functioning of hearts and is distressed that Terry's is "weakened". Neroli doesn't think French Toast is that good for hearts :o

Neroli is going to find out more about hearts in the next 24 hours or so when she wears a Holter monitor to see if it can catch her heart doing the loopity loops :lol: because no one else seems able to catch it except Neroli :rolleyes:

Em is thinking about Tel's heart. . . .:unsure:...... . . ...how long until the MRI, Nik? In Emily's province, the wait times are significantly down - - a couple of weeks for a non-emergency. Hope it is the same in the UK - - Em hopes it is SOON! Like, tomorrow. Who needs to be waiting?

Um.. . ...dunno if'n Emily can keep up this Third-Person-Talk until the end of the day.. . . ...it sounds mighty strange. . . .. .....unsettling, even. . .. .....like I (whoops, Emily) is talking about someone else.... . ... .She's getting lost in her own discourse. . . ..... . .. . . .....

:huh:

:rolleyes:

On the rare occasion that DH and Em are signed up on two treadmills that are side-by-side at their gym, they start off together, same speed, holding hands, then speed up until they can comfortably skip for a couple of minutes. It is a GREAT heart-rate boosting interval... . . . ...... . . . but man, never thought of roller blades. . . . .. . ....wonder if the Y would allow them to try this?. . . . . ...... . ..

Did Patti's Holter monitor "catch" anything? Neroli is afraid that this is a waste of time and that the loopity loops will remain as elusive as ever.

Patti wore it for 24 hours, and absolutely nothing showed up. Nada.

Jess is highly amused at reading the way everyone writes, although not so amused at Tel's heart. Jess hopes it all get sorted soon.

Patti makes Beverly <SNORT>. Beverly watched this rerun of Seinfeld just last night and thinks that is ironic.

Lisa is at school work and only has a second, but Lisa wanted to say that Rayshell is lucky she is not here with pubescent body odor mixed in with a truckload of Axe cologne :greenpukeyface;

Beverly feels VERY bad for Leesa as she has been there far too many times before. Beverly wants Leesa to know that college freshman wear Axe too <stinkyvomitface>. In Beverly's day, all the rage was Ralph Lauren Polo for men (1985)and her entire dorm smelled like it. Beverly can't even think about the small of that stuff wiithout throwing up a little in her own mouth.

Terry had his angiogram today - no furred up arteries (Nicola is relieved)

BUT the doc said his heart is 'weakened' and he needs to find out why :blink:

WHAaaaT the French toast?!?!?! :huh:

Beverly agrees with "WTFT?". Beverly's husband had heart MRI, angiosumphin, heart endoscopy etc etc etc after his stroke and they found nutting. Beverly's hubby must wear heart monitor next week too. Beverly wants them to find out what is wrong with Tel toot sweet! His heart is WEAKENED? Beverly will do research to find out what this means.

Neroli knows very little about the functioning of hearts and is distressed that Terry's is "weakened". Neroli doesn't think French Toast is that good for hearts :o

Beverly wants Neroli to know she will be thinking of her. :wub: :wub:

Speaking of loops, one of Beverly's students wrote a very funny memoir whose title had Loopy in it about falling in love with a drag queen. Beverly loved it but hopes that Neroli's heart loopity loops do not mean that Neroli will fall in love with a drag queen!

Did you know that Rachelle is a cardiovascular technologist? She actually graduated with a degree in cardiovascular science :huh: Anywho, she thinks an MRI for Tel is a good idea. Rachelle wants to know what his "Ejection Fraction" is. This is a very important number. Rachelle thinks it is very good that his corn's look good, but must discover what is weakening his heart and how "weak" it is....

Rachelle also thinks Neroli needs to wear a King-of-Hearts monitor. This is a monitor that is worn for up to a month and can catch more sporadic symptoms. Rachelle thinks the 24 hour monitors are crap hit and miss.

Rachelle would rather stick her nose into a BO and AXE deodorant armpit than endure what I was just stuck with for 2 hours!! :P Speaking of AXE, did anyone see that "AXE your balls" commercial? Rachelle looked redonculous larfing out loud! :lol: :lol:

Um.. . . . . . must one refrain from showering whilst wearing this model, as well?. . . . . ....:unsure:.. . . ....:blink: . .. . ........

Jan-ette is still waiting for a couple of bucks from Geoss . . . :P

Janet can jump up and down on one foot, walk backwards, and crawl on her treadmill because Janet's treadmill is never turned on. Janet uses her treadmill to "hold" things.

Nicola . . . WHAT the FRENCH TOAST?? is right!!! Keep Janet, et al in the loop . . . hope everything goes OK!!

Janet started that previous post a couple of hours ago and now sees that many posts have been added.

Janet had a loopity loop in her heart after a hanus phall during water skiing. She phell chest first . . . hard. Her loopity loop felt like the "heart" equivalent to loosing your stomach on a roller coaster. She (of course) didn't go to the doctor right away and by the time she got in, it wasn't doing it too often. EKG showed nothing cuz it didn't happen while she was hooked up. The doc gave it a name that Janet can't remember anymore but basically meant that the electronic wiring was a bit discombobulated by the fall. Not to worry, the heart has many "back-ups" and I was "feeling" the phiring signal from an alternative location or a "late" phiring from the correct location (or something like that :P it's been a while) and it would work itself out and return to normal . . . which it did. So, Janet mentions all this because Janet wants to know if Neroli has been water-skiing lately?

      New Study Reveals Age and Racial Gaps in Pediatric Celiac Testing

      The practical takeaway: "For people who care about celiac disease, especially families who have children at higher risk, the findings highlight the importance of self-advocacy." It's the only parameter that the affected individual or their family members have control over. We need to learn to become "politely pushy" in order to get proper testing done when...

      Help understand results

      Actually, it would be more correct to say that the genetic potential to develop celiac disease is passed down from parents to children. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% of the general population actually do. But it is also true that the offspring of those who do have active celiac disease...

      If you are still eating gluten you could get a celiac disease blood panel done, but I agree with @trents and the gold standard for diagnosing celiac disease would be your endoscopy results. Is it possible they did do a celiac disease panel before your biopsy? This would be the normal chain of events. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% of the general population actually do. But it is also true that the offspring of those who do have active celiac disease are at a considerably higher risk of developing active celiac disease than those of parents who have the genes but don't develop the disease. Some recent, larger studies put the risk at near 50% for the first degree relatives of those who have active celiac disease.

      Fruits & Veggies

      By Jordan Carlson · Posted

      Hello everyone! Been a while since I posted. The past few moths have been the best by for recovery for myself. I have been the least bloated I have ever been, my constant throat clearing is almost gone, I have stopped almost all medication I was prevously taking (was taking vyvanse for adhd, pristiq for anxiety,fomotadine/blexten for histamine blockers and singulair). Only thing I take now is Tecta. I also no longer get any rashes after eating. Things are going very well. Most success came actually once I upped my B12 daily dose to 5,000 mcg. I do have one thing I am un able to figure out and want to see if anyone else has this issue or has experience working around it. Ever since I was born I have always had a issue getting fruits and veggies down. No matter how hard I tried, it would always result in gagging or throwing up. Always just thought I was a picky eater. Now that my stomach and system has healed enough that I can feel when something is off almost istantly, I notice that after eating most fruits (sometimes I am ok with bananas) and veggies, my stomach instantly starts burning and my heart starts to pound and I get really anxious as if my body doesnt know what to do with what just enetered it. So I am thinking now that this is what probably was going on when I was born and my body started rejecting it before which caused this weird sensory issue with it causing the gagging. Hoping someone has some exprience with this as well because I would love to be able to enjoy a nice fruit smoothie once in a while haha. Thanks everyone!

      i know i've been rather cynical and sad about being fully diagnosed in june 2025, but my boyfriend has been consistently showing me the wonderful world that is gluten free cooking and baking. in the past couple of days he's made me a gluten free rice paper-wrapped spanakopita "pastry", plus a wonderful mac and cheese bechamel-ish sauce with gluten free pasta (san remo brand if you're in australia/if you can get your hands on it wherever you are).  those meals are notably gluten free, but mainly he's been making me easy gluten free meals - chili mince with white rice and sour cream, chicken soup with homemade stock from the chicken remains, and roast chickens with rice flour gravy and roast veggies. i'm a bit too thankful and grateful lol. how lucky could i possibly be? and, of course, for those who don't have someone to cook for them, it's quite easy to learn to cook for yourself. i've been making a lot of meals for us too. honestly, cooking is pretty darn fun! knowing basic knife skills and sanitary practices are all you really need. experimenting with spices will help you get on track to creating some really flavourful and yummy dishes. coeliac is a pain, but you can use it to your advantage. healthier eating and having fun in the kitchen are major upsides. much luck to all of you! let's be healthy!
