Went to the podiatrist. Not especially hunky but very nice. I will live and he doesn't have to amputate. May have to work on it a little more if it doesn't behave. Gave me ideas to keep this from happening again.

Buddy the truck will live for $440. Auto shop guy said he was really lucky he didn't damage it more. Should be out of car hospital today, just in time for 6 am football!

Glad the toe is gonna make it. :P When mine was growing back in, it looked like it was growing inwards, but it never did. It took forever, and was pretty gross, but it ended up fine.

The auto shop is quick--you won't be wifout it fer too long.

I feel so old! I have an appointment with a Podiatrist tomorrow. That just seems to me someone old people go to. I bruised my big toenail and it fell off after a long while. The new toenail isn't growing in right. Its like its trying to grow into my toe instead of over. I'm just falling apart!

You highness, please refer to this post. I bruise it every year in my ski boots. He gave me whY he called "toe condoms". They are little silicone covers that go on your toes. They help protect your toes by spreading out the pressure so it's not all on my nail.

Ah yes....toe caps! My younger son had to utilize them at one time due to a toe issue.

..."toe condoms...

Ahhhh . . . a new phrase for our psilly dickshunary.

Ckairenne . . . glad no one got hurt . . . and quite frankly, as bad as this sounds, that $440 price tag could have been a helluva lot worse, too.

Psillies!!! I have been called back to my former preschool position!!! Did I tell you that I volunteered to be layed off?? . . . can't remember . . . they needed to reduce the staff because enrollment was down and there were some people there that truly needed the job a lot more than me. Anyways, I volunteered to not come back and to work as a sub if they needed me to. Well, I got a call this morning that they could use me . . . although not for as many hours. The money is really pretty lousy, but I don't have anything else going on, so what the hell.

That sounds like a fun job. Also, sounds like they like you, so if any more hours come up, they will go to you. I am one of those people that actually like little kids, too.

Hey psills--I think I may have had a breakthrough. Remember when I was whining about shampoo and stuff--it seemed like everything was making me sick? Well, as you know I'm spending some time at Matt's. He does not have a dishwasher and uses the same dishwashing liquid I did--Clorox Greenworks.

Bear wif me....I had been feeling off for a while before coming up here--not gluten but eczema, fatigue, indigestion, nausea, dizziness (kind of), stuff like that. It dawned on me that I had been cooking for myself down there and using my non stick pan a lot (I was doing grilled cheese a lot, and thought my bread was making me sick). Then washing it out wif the Greenworks. Up here, I am the dishwasher and was using it for everything and was feeling worse.

The kicker--Greenworks is almost entirely from coconut :o I have known I was intolerant to coconut for years--to actually eat-- it but I guess using it daily on dishes was too much. Add to that, the California Baby shampoo and the special unscented soap I send away for also contain coconut--it all came to a head.

I just got a bar of coconut-free soap to try,

and have switched back to Palmolive dishwashing liquid. The switch to Palmolive made me better, but I was still dizzy and the eczema was a bit better, but not gone.

Since using the coconut free soap, and making sure I was 100% coconut free, I'm not dizzy and my eczema is actually clearing!!! I've been dizzy for over 3 months now, and along wif the GI stuff, I was getting really worried that something was up. It was feeding my anxiety and when that happens I just tend to go through the motions but worry under the surface all the time.

I know this is long, but I wanted to tell youse guys! A few years ago, I found out that I couldn't tolerate filtered water from my own fridge because the filter was primarily coconut hulls. I learned that here on the board. I wish I had been as diligent about coconut as I am about gluten on the topical use. Or maybe the sensitivity just got worse--who knows?

Anyway--woo-hoo :D

Oh Jan-it--she's still having symptoms? It's definitely tiresome to keep having to play detective with this stuff. :(

It does make me wonder though, how many people who have things like migraines and other unexplained maladies actually are reacting to something they are eating/using/have in their enviroment. I wouldn't have ever thought of these things in my previous life.....

I hope you get it figured out soon. ;)

Hub keeps getting them. They have him call and then say they don't need him and will send him a jury duty slip another time. I got called but I just had a baby or something and I think my response scared them off. Also, I registered as an Independent & that may have scared them off. :)

so maybe tell them your a pregnant Independant whose relatives are all thieves?

Haven't seen the show but do know someone who has a 3-4year old named Tosh. They moved to Seattle cause they were too cool for Ks.

      Son's legs shaking

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin. He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her...

      Bob red mill gluten free oats

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified...

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you...

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior?

But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.
