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! ;)

Patti must go and throw in another load of laundry......

Shoot, Rachelle missed yesterday, but it sounded like so much fun, that she's having a 3rd person day even if it's by herself!! And she's having a great time :lol: :lol:

kareng Grand Master

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: )

Nicola is pleased with the Psills :lol:

Ok, any of yooz know owt about hearts???

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:

Now he's got to have an MRI of his heart :unsure:

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

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:

Good luck wif it, Shroomie. Patti had this before the afore mentioned testing--nuttin to it except you can nae shower until it's removed. <_<

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)

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?

      So interesting that you stated you had sub clinical vitamin deficiencies. When I was first diagnosed with celiac disease (silent), the vitamin levels my doctor did test for were mostly within normal range (lower end) with the exception of vitamin D. I believe he tested D, B12, magnesium, and iron.  I wondered how it was possible that I had celiac disease without being deficient in everything!  I’m wondering now if I have subclinical vitamin deficiencies as well, because even though I remain gluten free, I struggle with insomnia, low energy, body aches, etc.  It’s truly frustrating when you stay true to the gluten-free diet, yet feel fatigued most days. I’ll definitely try the B-complex, and the Benfotiamine again, and will keep you posted. Thanks once again!

      Segments of the protein Casein are the same as segments of the protein strands of gluten, the 33-mer segment.   The cow's body builds that Casein protein.  It doesn't come from wheat.   Casein can trigger the same reaction as being exposed to gluten in some people.   This is not a dairy allergy (IGE mediated response).  It is not lactose intolerance.  
    • trents
      Wheatwacked, what exactly did you intend when you stated that wheat is incorporated into the milk of cows fed wheat? Obviously, the gluten would be broken down by digestion and is too large a molecule anyway to cross the intestinal membrane and get into the bloodstream of the cow. What is it from the wheat that you are saying becomes incorporated into the milk protein?
    • Scott Adams
      Wheat in cow feed would not equal gluten in the milk, @Wheatwacked, please back up extraordinary claims like this with some scientific backing, as I've never heard that cow's milk could contain gluten due to what the cow eats.

      Hello, @NanceK, I'm glad you're willing to give Benfotiamine with B Complex another go!  I'm certain you'll feel much better.   Yes, supplementation is a good idea even if you're healing and gluten free.  The gluten free diet can be low in B vitamins and other nutrients. A nutritionist can help guide you to a nutrient dense diet, but food sensitivities and food preferences can limit choices.  I can't consume fish and shellfish due to the sulfa hypersensitivity and iodine content, and dairy is out as well.  I react to casein, the protein in dairy, as well as the iodine in dairy.  My Dermatitis Herpetiformis is aggravated by iodine.   Blood tests for B vitamin levels are notoriously inaccurate.  You can have deficiency symptoms before blood levels change to show a deficiency.  I had subclinical vitamin deficiencies for years which affected my health, leading to a slow downward spiral.  Because the B vitamins are water soluble, they are easily excreted in urine if not needed.  It's better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.   Wheat and other gluten containing grain products have vitamins and minerals added to them to replace those nutrients lost in processing.  Manufacturers add cheap vitamins that our bodies don't absorb or utilize well.  Even normal people can suffer from vitamin deficiencies.  The rise in obesity can be caused by High Calorie Malnutrition, where people eat more carbohydrate calories but don't get sufficient thiamine and B vitamins to turn the calories into energy.  The calories are stored as fat in an effort to ration out diminishing thiamine  stores.    It's time to buy your own vitamins in forms like Benfotiamine that our bodies can use well.   Not sleeping well and fatigue are symptoms of Thiamine deficiency.   I'm certain Benfotiamine with a B Complex will help you immensely.  Just don't take them at night since B vitamins provide lots of energy, you can become too energetic to sleep.  Better to take them earlier in your day.   Do keep me posted on your progress!
