Thank goodness this very unpsilly end of week (with the exception of the hay baler) is coming to an end.

The annual boob-mashing ended up being the annual skin-tearing :unsure: as this grim-faced hag mauled and mashed and pushed and scrunched - got this tear line under me right boob now, right on the bra line..... You bettah believe next time I is going to demand a little more respect :ph34r: . She tried to blame it on "some women get very moist there"!! Yeah, like when it's 100 degrees in Reno and they won't let you wear powder or antiperspirant... :blink:

The other unpsilly thing was my misreading a label :huh: Ya see, corn starch is corn flour down under, and I bought these rice chips which had corn flour on the label and my eye just passed right over, including the fact that the word "masa" was right in front of the corn flour, which meant they had ground up the whole kernel. Good part about it was I had one of my erratic arrythmias less then a mile from the ER I had been in when I first got here, :) so I decided to go and have it recorded and see what it was -- just a bad case of a-fib, they says, which I thought it might be all along but no-one would believe me. They couldn't convert me with either potassium or Metoprolol so sent me home once I was stable with the cardiologists calling me in the a.m. However, at 1:30 a.m. I suddenly converted on my own as I normally do after the lectins have done their thing. I did get to see a different (and much more impressive) cardiologist this time, who changed my meds (again! but this is a change for the better I think.) And, I get my follow-up appt. with the cardiologist I saw in the ICU who I really liked :) but who is so popular I could not get in to see her until 9/9. When I had my annual rheumy appt. he said "Candace is a very good cardiologist" so at least I can trust my own judgment.

So that's your unpsilly post for the day - resume regular psilly programming. :rolleyes:

I think it helps if you have the right kind of baler and your dad's not looking.

M & Hub went on a Scout campout canoeing/ kayaking. They ate better then I did! M made chili Mac with a cornbread topping and apple cobbler for dessert. Not gluten-free but he offered to us the gluten-free cake mix and cornbread mix if I wanted him to try to see how it worked for other kids. Hub made the food for the adults dinner. Jambalaya and green chili pork. Except that he used a can of cream of chicken, both would be gluten-free. So delicious the adults didn't need dessert.

Traditional cobbler is fruit with a top crust or crumbly top crust. At camp, you put pie filling then top with the powdered cake mix and some little bits of butter. Yum!

I thought it was a SUN dance? Raindances should not be done nekid. You must wear a rain slicker and wellies. The wilder colored the better. First you wash your car then perform the dance.

This has me suddenly pondering the very nature of this word.. . .. ... ..."cobbler" is traditionally an individual who mends and makes shoes and boots. Do you think he was perhaps also the first bloke to sprinkle sweet powdery stuff o'ertop chopped fruit and throw it in the stone oven?

:rolleyes:

Maybe it's a New England thing, but a crumble/crisp is fruit bottom with sugar, flour, and butter on top, crisp usually includes oats. Fruit filling with cake mix dumped on top with bits of butter all over is called, appropriately, dump cake. Cobbler is fruit filling with a batter on top- eggs, flour, sugar, butter. Fine distinctions, I realize, but it's VERY IMPORTANT we get this right or my anal-retentive mother will psychically know I didn't correct you and have a coronary!!!! :) :)

      Ibuprofen

      By cristiana · Posted

      @Colleen H   I am just curious,  when you were tested for coeliac disease, did the doctors find out if you had any deficiencies? Sometimes muscle pain can be caused by certain deficiencies, for example, magnesium, vitamin D, calcium, and potassium.   Might be worth looking into having some more tests.  Pins and needles can be neuropathy, again caused by deficiencies, such as iron and B12,  which can be reversed if these deficiencies are addressed. In the UK where I live we are usually only tested for iron, B12 and vitamin D deficiencies at diagnosis.   I was very iron anemic and supplementation made a big difference.  B12 was low normal, but in other countries the UK's low normal would be considered a deficiency.  My vitamin D was low normal, and I've been supplementing ever since (when I remember to take it!) My pins and needles definitely started to improve when my known deficiencies were addressed.  My nutritionist also gave me a broad spectrum supplement which really helped, because I suspect I wasn't just deficient in what I mention above but in many other vitamins and minerals.  But a word of warning, don't take iron unless blood tests reveal you actually need it, and if you are taking it your levels must be regularly monitored because too much can make you ill.  (And if you are currently taking iron, that might actually be making your stomach sore - it did mine, so my GP changed my iron supplementation to a gentler form, ferrous gluconate). Lastly, have you been trying to take anything to lessen the pain in your gut?  I get a sore stomach periodically, usually when I've had too much rich food, or when I have had to take an aspirin or certain antibiotics, or after glutening.  When this happens, I take for just a few days a small daily dose of OTC omeprazole.  I also follow a reflux or gastritis diet. There are lots online but the common denominators to these diets is you need to cut out caffeine, alcohol, rich, spicy, acidic food etc and eat small regularly spaced meals.   When I get a sore stomach, I also find it helpful to drink lots of water.  I also find hot water with a few slices of ginger very soothing to sip, or camomile tea.  A wedge pillow at night is good for reflux. Also,  best not to eat a meal 2-3 hours before going to bed. If the stomach pain is getting worse, though, it would be wise to see the doctor again. I hope some of this helps. Cristiana

      Knowing what to do when feeling unwell.

      By Me,Sue · Posted

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed that I feel nauseous after possibly being glutened. I think the thing that I have got better at is knowing what to do when I feel wiped out after a gluten 'episode'. I drink loads of water, and have just started drinking peppermint tea. I also have rehydration powders to drink. I don't feel like eating much, but eventually feel like I need to eat. Gluten free flapjacks, or gluten free cereal, or a small gluten free kids meal are my go to. I am retired, so luckily I can rest, sometimes even going to bed when nothing else works. So I feel that I am getting better at knowing how to try and get back on track. I am also trying to stick to a simpler menu and eat mostly at home so that I can be more confident about what I am eating. THANKS TO THOSE WHO REPLIED ABOUT THE NAUSEA .

      The Happy Tart review

      Thanks. Since the back and forth and promises of review and general stalling went on for more than six months, the credit company will no longer investigate. They have a cutoff of maybe six months.

      The Happy Tart review

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Is this the same restaurant? https://www.facebook.com/TheHappyTartFallsChurch/ Is it too late to take this up with your credit card company? Normally you have a few months to do a chargeback with them. It seems very odd that they are taking this approach with someone who is likely to be a regular customer--not a good business-minded way of handling things!

      Stomach burning and neuropathy

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.
