Once we made homemade pizza and wrapped the left overs in foil. Next day friends took them to work, left them in the rear window of the car and they were nice and melty by lunch.

Did the egg thing. Found it works better if you put it on foil so you can get it back up.

We are nearly 65 here. Your sidewalks are twice as hot as our air (and you-all thought I'd never use those math classes :P ).

What if you were weeding and managed to avoid heatstroke but may have touched poison ivy? I immediately ran in and washed my hands wif soap and water--is that enough?

I got poison ivy 5 years ago and it was awful :( I would like to avoid that again.....

This is a subject I know about. Soap and water right away is your best defense. Also, be aware that the oil from the plant can still be on your clothes, tools, pets, shoes. Our dog would walk next to the poison Ivy and then rub against hub & he would get a rash. Hub has some now and finds a hydrocortisone cream helps (especially if you can find one with the skin numbing stuff in it).

Suddenly turned dark and started storming! What the French Toast?

This was the major reason I had to vacate California - not the ivy but the oak!! We had an acre with quite a bit of woods and my kitty would wallow in it and then come and sit on my lap (me in shorts!). I became deathly allergic to it, would break out in systemic hives, and had so much prednisone over the years became intolerant of that too! :(

Only stinging nettles in New Zealand :) And haven't found anything bad to get into in Nevada yet :P and I sure don't try.

Just came back from Carson Valley where it was 96, but it is 82 here at the lake :D Don't need to go to Jess's house yet, but if y'all are going count me in - I could do with a rinse.

Still storming! We didn't have a chance of storms on the morning news.

Just realized, I'm turning into one of those crazy, old, lonely people who reply to their own posts. :unsure:

      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.
