Yes, I definitely need some 'woo hooo' ph34r.gif

Hope you get some............wink.gifohmy.giflaugh.gif

MIL update. J is back and tells me that her mother is on some SERIOUS pain meds after the surgery which are affecting her judgement. She is as high as a kite and is experiencing an escape from reality (can I get some of the stuff?). Anywho, the catheter and IV are expected to be removed tomorrow, along with the restraints.

all this with dementia is really rough. Hope the restraints will help her relax. Sorry about this Peter. Best to J.

The LlamaLady has not posted in over a year, but I did some sniffing around and here is my guess: Maria Shriver.

Wow, it was much easier to keep up back when I was sick!!! Lazy day here, daughter home from school sick, so maybe I can keep up today ..... until I go kick some butts late this afternoon in my pilates classes.

Laura is on FB, too, so I see her there, though I know it's not the same as here. :)

Lots of nasty political ads here. Loved this phrase about a Congressman on the challengers commercial: called him a " Prodigious Porkmiester".

Will have to work that into a conversation. :)

Well, I confess that as a mod, I have access to one clue about Llama Lady that is not available to ordinary members. I can see the IP address from which posts are made. So, after looking at some of her posts again, I started wondering what famous female who has appeared on television would be in the Sacramento area. When a name popped into my head, I investigated, and all the pieces to the puzzle seem to fit.

There has long been speculation that celiac disease might run in the Kennedy family. Look at the posts, and ask yourself if the person who wrote them could have written a book for children.

Our annual Halloween shindig is coming up too, but we're supposed to go as fairy tale characters :blink:

I wish there was some sort of theme! That would help the decision making! I think I'm gonna hit Value Village on Thursday wilst the kiddos are in gymnastics. Apparently they have an amazing selection--and cheap!

Yes, I definitely need some 'whooo hooo' :ph34r:

And a little 'YeeHa' ;)

3rd date sounds good for a little kissy kissy. Can't wait to hear about it! :P

Yeah, come to think of it, I hope all is well wif Rash-schell :unsure:

No drama, No hangovers!!

In fact, my stomach was aching so bad on Sunday from laughing soooooo hard!! We played this game called 'Things' (Open Original Shared Link) and it started off really tame, then got WAAAAAAAAY raunchy and heelarious (questions like 'things you wouldn't do on your desk' and 'things you shouldn't do in a theater'). Before that we had the radio turned to a classic rock station and had multiple rounds of Jello shots, so we were singing away, doing a 1000 piece puzzle. Everyone had a great time and the weather couldn't have been more perfect!

Well, here is a shot of Maria and the Guv's cozy li'l home. .. . .. ..I'd say it's a go for the psummit. There is likely enough space for us all to have our own rooms. . . .. ....maybe two or three rooms.

I could bring the dogs... . . . . and the cats. . . . . ....we could all bring our parents.... . . . ..

But unfortunately, I do not believe there is room for MILs.... . . .. . .<_<

That must be their private home. I'm trying to post a pic of the Govenors Mansion. It's not nearly as big. It says no one lives in it. I don't remember where the Govenator actually lives in Sac.

      If black seed oil is working for his Afib, stick to it, but if not, I can say that ablation therapy is no big deal--my mother was out of the procedure in about 1 hour and went home that evening, and had zero negative effects from the treatment. PS - I would recommend that your husband get an Apple watch to monitor his Afib--there is an app and it will take readings 24/7 and give reports on how much of the time he's in it. Actual data like this should be what should guide his treatment.

      This happened to me as well. What’s weirder is that within a couple hours of taking paxlovid it subsided. I thought maybe I got glutened but after reading your post not so sure.

      Hi Tiffany. Thank you for writing your dituation and  circumstancesin such detail and so well writte, too. I particularly noticed what you wrote about brain for and feeling like your brain is swelling and I know from my own experiences that's how it feel and your brain really does swell and you get migraines.    Way back when I was in my 20s I read a book by 2 MD allergist and they described their patient who came in complaining that her brain, inside her cranium, was swelling  and it happened when she smelled a certain chemical she used in her home. She kept coming back and insisting her brain actually swelled in her head. The Drs couldn't explain this problem so they, with her permission, performed an operation where they made a small opening through her cranium, exposed her to the chemical then watched as she brain did swell into the opening. The DRs were amazed but then were able to advise her to avoid chemicals that made her brain swell. I remember that because I occasionally had brain fog then but it was not a serious problem. I also realized that I was becoming more sensitive to chemicals I used in my work in medical laboratories. By my mid forties the brain fog and chemicals forced me to leave my  profession and move to a rural area with little pollution. I did not have migraines. I was told a little later that I had a more porous blood brain barrier than other people. Chemicals in the air would go up into my sinused and leak through the blood brain barrier into my brain. We have 2 arteries  in our neck that carry blood with the nutrients and oxygen into the brain. To remove the fluids and used blood from the brain there are only capillaries and no large veins to carry it away so all those fluids ooze out much more slowly than they came in and since the small capillaries can't take care of extra fluid it results in swelling in the face, especially around the eyes. My blood flow into my brain is different from most other people as I have an arterial ischema, adefectiveartery on one side.   I have to go forward about 20 or more years when I learned that I had glaucoma, an eye problem that causes blindness and more years until I learned I had celiac disease.  The eye Dr described my glaucoma as a very slow loss of vision that I wouldn't  notice until had noticeable loss of sight.  I could have my eye pressure checked regularly or it would be best to have the cataracts removed from both eyes. I kept putting off the surgery then just overnight lost most of the vision in my left eye. I thought at the I had been exposed to some chemical and found out a little later the person who livedbehind me was using some chemicals to build kayaks in a shed behind my house. I did not realize the signifance  of this until I started having appointments with a Dr. in a new building. New buildings give me brain fog, loss of balance and other problems I know about this time I experienced visual disturbances very similar to those experienced by people with migraines. I looked further online and read that people with glaucoma can suffer rapid loss of sight if they have silent migraines (no headache). The remedy for migraines is to identify and avoid the triggers. I already know most of my triggers - aromatic chemicals, some cleaning materials, gasoline and exhaust and mold toxins. I am very careful about using cleaning agents using mostly borax and baking powder. Anything that has any fragrance or smell I avoid. There is one brand of dishwashing detergent that I can use and several brands of  scouring powder. I hope you find some of this helpful and useful. I have not seen any evidence that Celiac Disease is involved with migraines or glaucoma. Please come back if you have questions or if what I wrote doesn't make senseto you. We sometimes haveto learn by experience and finding out why we have some problems. Take care.       The report did not mention migraines.

      Hi Jmartes71 That is so much like my story! You probably know where Laytonville is and that's where I was living just before my 60th birthday when the new Dr. suggested I could have Celiacs. I didn't go on a gluten challange diet before having the Celiac panel blood test drawn. The results came back as equivical as one antibody level was very high but another, tissue transaminasewas normal. Itdid show I was  allergic to cows milk and I think hot peppers. I immediately went gluten free but did not go in for an endoscopy. I found an online lab online that would do the test to show if I had a main celiac gene (enterolab.com). The report came back that I had inherited a main celiac gene, DQ8, from one parent and a D!6 from the other parent. That combination is knows to sym[tons of celiac worse than just inheriting one main celiac gene. With my version of celiac disease I was mostly constipated but after going gluten-free I would have diarrhea the few times I was glutened either by cross contamination or eating some food containing gluten. I have stayed gluten-free for almost 20 years now and knew within a few days that it was right for me although my recovery has been slow.   When I go to see a  medical provide and tell them I have celiacs they don't believe me. The same when I tell them that I carry a main celiac gene, the DQ8. It is only when I tell them that I get diarrhea after eating gluten that they realize that I might have celiac disease. Then they will order th Vitamin B12 and D3 that I need to monitor as my B12 levels can go down very fast if I'm not taking enough of it. Medical providers haven't been much help in my recovery. They are not well trained in this problem. I really hope this helps ypu. Take care.
