Yeah ok good. I wasn't sure if this was truly a unique experience, or if most of the world does this and I happen to have picked all the losers for my previous partners. Walking is not so much of an issue. Sitting, however...

Yes, the loose fitting clothes and perhapse a bag of frozen peas or an ice pack... ;) Oooooh-a warm bath with epsom salt!

Loose fitting pants or a skirt & some cranberry juice. ;)

Oh yes, the cranberry juice! Lots of water and use the restroom often--keep it clear :)

I would vote for this being a pretty unique experience :o:D Mebbe more than some of us get in a lifetime :unsure:

Well, if sitting is definitely out that means you will get lots done tomorrow :P

But at any rate.....

In Canada, Thanksgiving Day is the second Monday in October. This coincides with the US observation of Columbus Day.

yeah, well, imagine spending ~20 hours being treated as if the world would stop spinning if you weren't completely.....happy. I don't think I've ever heard so many nice things said about me in my lifetime, let alone one night. Sadly, I was incapable of speech much of the time :P . I'll try to do better next time.

From my parents:

What is Celibacy?

Celibacy can be a choice in life, or a condition imposed by circumstances.

While attending a Marriage Weekend, My wife and I, listened to the instructor declare, 'It is essential that husbands and wives know the things that are important to each other.."

He then addressed the men,

'Can you name and describe your wife's favorite flower?'

I leaned over, touched my wife's hand gently, and whispered,

'Gold Medal-All-Purpose, isn't it?'

And thus began my life of celibacy.........

Was pressed into service as the son-in-law today. We drove up to the retirement lodge to pick up FIL, then drove back south to the hospital where MIL is expected to be for six weeks.

She is more lucid, but is still hallucinating. There was a man hiding under the chair I was sitting on, and another one watching from behind the door. :o

After an hour at the hospital, we took FIL back to the lodge, where I got to set up a new answering machine for him. The old one was accepting messages, but refusing to divulge them (and saying so in French!). We had to move the bed to get at the wiring, but got it sorted out.

A quiet Thanksgiving is planned for tomorrow--just the two humans and four cats. We normally have three here, but Caramel is at home since she is having some issues and we need to keep an eye on her until we can get her to the vet on Tuesday. She seems to be coping with being isolated in the master bedroom.

For dinner, we are planning to make our gluten-free three-cheese lasagna.

Peter, we think alike. My favorite Thanksging dinner was when I made lasagna. This was when my family lived too far away to complain.

I grew up in a big Italian phamily--when my grandma was still wif us, we always had lasagna before traditional holiday meals as a phirst course. Those dinners went on fer hours--good times :rolleyes:

With lasagna as merely the FIRST course, that meal would really need to last a long time :o:rolleyes:

      Self Diagnosed avoiding gluten 7 months later (Not tested due to eating gluten to test) update and question on soy

      Not sure what you mean by "soy being like gluten". Soy does not cause a celiac reaction. However, soy is one of the foods that many celiacs don't tolerate well for other reasons. Eggs, corn and dairy are also on that list of foods that many of those with celiac disease seem to be sensitive to. But that doesn't mean that all celiacs are sensitive to any one...

      I know I haven't been tested but self diagnosed that by avoiding gluten the past 7 months I feel so much better. I have followed how to eat and avoid gluten and have been good about hidden gluten in products, how to prep gluten-free and flours to use to bake gluten-free and have been very successful.

      Feel like I’m starting over

      Check your multivitamin to see if it contains Thiamine Mononitrate, which is a "shelf-stable" form of thiamine that doesn't break down with exposure to light, heat, and time sitting on a shelf waiting to be sold. Our bodies have difficulty absorbing and utilizing it. Only 30% is absorbed and less can be utilized. There's some question as to how well multivitamins...

Eggs, corn and dairy are also on that list of foods that many of those with celiac disease seem to be sensitive to. But that doesn't mean that all celiacs are sensitive to any one of them or all of them. It just means it's common. You may not have a problem with soy at all. Celiac disease is not a food allergy. It is an autoimmune response to the ingestion of gluten that creates inflammation in the small bowel lining that, over time, damages that lining.

      Basic metabolic panel results - more flags

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Hey all  Has anyone on here experienced any of the following on their basic metabolic panel results ? This is what mine is currently flagging : - low sodium  - nearly too low potassium - nearly too low chloride - high CO2  - low anion gap  This is now after being nearly gluten-free for over a year (although I admit I make mistakes sometimes and pay dearly for it). My TtG went down to undetectable. I was so sensitive to so many foods I am now avoiding meat dairy and don’t eat a lot of cooked food in general (raw veggies, white rice, avocados and boiled eggs are my usual go-to meal that doesn’t make me sick). But my abdomen still hurts, i have a range of other symptoms too (headaches that last for days before letting up, fatigue, joint pain, bladder pain). Anyway im hoping my urologist (that’s now the latest specialist I’ve seen on account of the bladder pain and cloudy urine after eating certain foods) will help me with this since he ordered this metabolic panel. But I’m bouncing around a lot between specialists and still not sure what’s wrong. Also went back to the GI doctor and she thought maybe the celiac is just not healed or I have something else going on in the colon and I should have that looked at too. I’m still anemic too BTW. And I’m taking sooo may vitamins daily.

I have followed how to eat and avoid gluten and have been good about hidden gluten in products, how to prep gluten-free and flours to use to bake gluten-free and have been very successful. It has been a learning curve but once you get the hang of it and more aware you realize how many places are gluten-free and contamination free practices etc. One thing I have read is how soy is like gluten. How would one know if soy affects you? I have eaten gluten free hershey reeses that say gluten free etc some other snacks say gluten free but contain soy and I dont get sick or soy yogurt no issues. Is there adifference in soys?

      Check your multivitamin to see if it contains Thiamine Mononitrate, which is a "shelf-stable" form of thiamine that doesn't break down with exposure to light, heat, and time sitting on a shelf waiting to be sold.  Our bodies have difficulty absorbing and utilizing it.  Only 30% is absorbed and less can be utilized.   There's some question as to how well multivitamins dissolve in the digestive tract.  You can test this at home.  YouTube has instructional videos.   Talk to your nutritionist about adding a B Complex.  The B vitamins are water soluble, so any excess is easily excreted if not needed.  Consider adding additional Thiamine in the forms Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) or thiamine hydrochloride.   Thiamine is needed to help control electrolytes.  Without sufficient thiamine, the kidneys loose electrolytes easily resulting in low sodium and chloride.   We need extra thiamine when we're emotionally stressed, physically ill, and when we exercise regularly, are an athlete, or do physical labor outdoors, and in hot weather.  Your return to activities and athletics may have depleted your thiamine and other B vitamins to a point symptoms are appearing.   The deficiency symptoms of B vitamins overlap, and can be pretty vague, or easily written off as due to something else like being tired after a busy day.  The symptoms you listed are the same as early B vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially Thiamine.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms can appear in as little as three days.  I recognize the symptoms as those I had when I was deficient.  It can get much worse. "My symptoms are as follows: Dizziness, lightheaded, headaches (mostly sinus), jaw/neck pain, severe tinnitus, joint stiffness, fatigue, irregular heart rate, post exercise muscle fatigue and soreness, brain fog, insomnia.  Generally feeling unwell." I took a B 50 Complex twice a day and extra thiamine in the forms Benfotiamine and TTFD.  I currently take the Ex Plus supplement used in this study which shows B vitamins, especially Thiamine B 1, Riboflavin B2, Pyridoxine B 6, and B12 Cobalamine are very helpful.   A functional evaluation of anti-fatigue and exercise performance improvement following vitamin B complex supplementation in healthy humans, a randomized double-blind trial https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10542023/

      I am taking a multivitamin which is pretty bolstered with B’s.  Additional Calcium, D3, Magnesium, Vit C, and Ubiquinol.  Started Creapure creatine monohydrate in June for athletic recovery and brain fog.  I have been working with a Nutritionist along side my Dr. since February.  My TTG IGA levels in January were 52.8 and my DGP IGA was >250 (I don’t know the exact number since it was so high).  All my other labs were normal except Sodium and Chloride which were low.  I have more labs coming up in Dec.  I make my own bread, and don’t eat a lot of processed gluten-free snacks.
