Don't think any of us want to be here. Weather nice today 82 no humidity. Weather man just said "Heat and humidity return for the Holiday".

I'm sure if you go the the American Embassy near you and explained that this was a Psilly emergency you would be given an immediate Visa.

Do you need a visa? Just show up! Come to the 4th of July parade on Bainbridge. I'll be marching with the theatre group, somewhere between the fire trucks and the boy scouts probably.

:lol: knick-knacks :lol:

Been phollowing all yer summer phun banter--been busy today wif photographer ....the new realtor really knows what she wants. It was like a movie set in here. B) She's all about the right "angles" and "wide shots" and "the right lighting"--a real phirecracker, that one!

Jan-it, when I called Johnson and Johnson to make sure about the baby shampoo, I found out they are going to be introducing a new "naturals line". She didn't have much info, but it should be in stores soon and then they'll have gluten info and such. She only had info on the lotion, which is gluten-free. Thought you might want to phile that away in case Skeeter has to switch at some point.

I'm thinking maybe on the order of California Baby? But easier to find.

Actually, around here it a Visa, Mastercard or American Express. As long as you have one of those, I'm sure my city would welcome you.

I realize I'm coming in late to this conversation (stupid job) but I have a few ideas! Patee, are you sensitive to coconut? If not maybe try the Tropical Traditions website. I have a handpump lather soap that has one ingredient- saponified virgin coconut oil. Seriously. Not that I would use it on my hair regularly- I did try it once, gave me tangles you wouldn't believe. But they have lots of different kinds of products that are really icky-chemical-free. They even have a shampoo bar! Also just the one ingredient, if you want it unscented. The only scents they use are essential oils, so if you tolerate those you might be able to enjoy a scent.

Also, with the California baby, make sure it says unscented, because they tend to put smells in everything else. My 'calming' face lotion has a rather strong scent, actually.

There was something else I was thinking of, but I can't remember since I can't go LOOK! Fireworks are coming!!

By the way . . . wanted to thank everyone for their birfday wishes whilst I was gone . . . and no, it's not my real birfday, just like it's not my real name over on daBook. Also, I'm not in my 40's . . . I'm . . . :huh: . . . 23 . . . :rolleyes: . . . yeah, that's it. I'm 23.

Trash day . . . prepare yourself . . . had lots of rain and raccoons in my (large) bird food bin . . . big time nastiness . . . :greenguy: . . . I put the whole thing, bin and all, into a giant garbage bag and stuck it in our trash can. Still left a trail of putrid slime and maggots. The smell was gagulous. Had to clorox the trash can.

We are trying to fit in a few days in LA to go to Disney & Catalina Island. J (17) came up with this idea: We should be able to go to the front of the lines because I have a "disability". I said that it doesn't effect my ability to ride a ride or stand in line. He said we have to get the ride seats/cars wiped down before I ride incase some kid had crumbs on his fingers. That should get us to the front of the line. B) Always looking for a way to beat the system.

The hurricane will miss us, but we're in fer a couple days of thunderstorms, heavy rain, and local phlooding. It's already very gray and windy out--I had to run to the store quick to get milk. Gotta have me tea :P

Now I can just stay put.

Batten down the hatches! Put out the sand bags! Stock up on wine and snacks!

      Has anyone had terrible TMJ/ Jaw Pain from undiagnosed Celiac?

      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.

      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.

      Oh wow! Thanks for this information! I’m going to try the Benfotiamine again and will also add a B-complex to my supplements. Presently, I just take sublingual B12 (methylcobalomin). Is supplementation for celiacs always necessary even though you remain gluten-free and you’re healing as shown on endoscopy? I also take D3, mag glycinate, and try to get cal...

      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!

Is supplementation for celiacs always necessary even though you remain gluten-free and you’re healing as shown on endoscopy? I also take D3, mag glycinate, and try to get calcium through diet. I am trying to bump up my energy level because I don’t sleep very well and feel fatigued quite often. I’m now hopeful that adding the Benfotiamine and B-complex will help. I really appreciate your explanation and advice! Thanks again Knitty Kitty!
