That was great! Loved the boxer on the trampoline!

Think if we taught Cooper to ride a bike, he wouldn't be so afraid of them?

Did you see the boxer dog on the trampoline? That should cheer you up. I'm thinking of getting a trampoline just to put my neighbors boxer on.

That sounds like fun! I asked for shooting lessons at a local range for Christmas, but I didn't get them. I think hubby was a little nervous about that one :ph34r::P

Have a WONDERFUL time tonight - you deserve it!!!!! I got to enjoy alone time this weekend. Think I already mentioned (brain fog) Clark was going back to NJ to visit pfriends and pick up Tony. I was supposed to go out with a girl[friend but she was sick. Thought I'd be lonely but I watched a good movie (chick flick) called The Women. By the time it was over I was ready or bed. Clark and TOny should be back by around 5. Clark called twice to make sure I tuned on the night setting of the burglar alarm (awwww).

Love you psillies!

Went to see Open Original Shared Link. It was awesome. Small supper club,full, but not packed. We had a table on the balcony looking down on the band. Music was fabulous, as was the food.

slow weekend, huh? . . . that's alright, I hate when I've been off for a couple of days and feel overwhelmed by the amount of reading I have to do . . . :P

Went birding yesterday . . . we're a hardy lot. Probably about 12 of us total with temps less than 10 degF and a windchill about 0. We're looking at going on a field trip next Saturday to an area where bald eagles roost . . . supposedly have the potential of seeing 80 to 100 bald eagles.

Went to PF Changs tonight . . . man I love that place.

You're a weather show-off!

We are supposed to get massive amounts of snow! Stock up on milk, cold cuts (judging by the deli counter line) & TP.

Wood, perhaps?? :D

I'm going to jinx us by saying this but, our power never goes off. Its almost all underground.

Unless you meant something else by that comment?

mushroom Proficient

Now what else would I mean?? B)

Our power always goes out - there is this rinky dinky line that does fine until it gets to just before us, and then it becomes the kind of line that goes over hill and dale forever and ever till it gets to the end of nowhere, where there are no roads, but plenty of branches :unsure: and if any one of those branches hit this line, boomp, we're out. But we got this luvverly soapstone stove that burns wood and it will keep you toasty forevver :D (so long as you gots wood, that is, so see, what else would I mean??? :lol:

Jestgar Rising Star

mmm yes. You need lots of wood to keep you warm. :P

All the schools are closed. We only have about 2 inches of snow but its supposed to keep it up until at least 5 inches.

There seems to be a dearth of silliness around here.

A paucity?

psawyer Proficient

It is indeed eerily quiet here in the land of the psillies.

      I made it through the holiday w/o being glutened. I had my brother cook with gluten-free breadcrumbs and I didn't get sick. I baked cookies with gluten-free flour and had dry ingredients for cookies in ziplock bag. I also made gluten cookies as well and guess I did good washing to avoid CC. My wife also went to a french bakery and bought a gluten-free flourless chocolate cake dedicated gluten-free it was out of this world.

      What do you mean it would not allow any celiac to eat gluten again. I think if this helps cross contamination when eating out at a non dedicated gluten-free restaurant this would be nice not to encounter the pains. But is their a daily enzyme to take to help strengthen the digestive system?

      Hi, thank you for the reply. Unfortunately, no other antibody tests were ordered. I am a 32-year-old male. About two months ago, I ate pancakes and then developed severe diarrhea that lasted the entire day. At night, I became unconscious due to fluid loss and was admitted to the ER, where I received IV fluids. Two days later, I ate bread again and once more developed severe diarrhea. I ended up in the ER again and received IV fluids. In my country, Pakistan, doctors are unfortunately not very thorough, so they treated me for a stomach infection. I visited three or four doctors, including a gastroenterologist, but it seemed like they just wanted to keep me on medications and IV fluids. Eventually, I did some digging myself and started connecting the dots. For years, I’ve had excessive gas buildup and frequent loose stools, but I never paid much attention to it. I also cannot easily digest dairy products. Two years ago, I had a CBC test that showed iron deficiency. My doctor told me to eat more meat and said it was nothing serious. However, for the past five years, I’ve also had severe motion sickness, which I never experienced before. Whenever I get on a bus or in a car, I sometimes lose consciousness for 10–20 seconds and wake up sweaty, and occasionally I feel the need to vomit. After more research on the internet, I came across gluten and celiac disease, so I got two related tests (TTG-IgA & TTG IgG) done along with a stool test and another CBC. The stool test showed weakly positive blood. Ever since eating those pancakes and bread, I’ve had a burning sensation in my gut. My doctor reviewed my tests, he told me to completely stop eating gluten and started me on IV fluids for 20 days, saying that I had severe inflammation in my gut. It has now been two months since I quit gluten, and I’m still not sure whether this is celiac disease or gluten intolerance. I don’t really trust doctors in Pakistan, so I thought I might get some help here.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SamAlvi! Were there any other antibody tests ordered? Particularly, was there a "total IGA" test ordered to check for IGA deficiency. When people are IGA deficient, celiac panel IGA test scores, such as the TTG-IGA, are likely not valid. If a total IGA test was not ordered, I would request such to be done. Note: "Total IGA" goes by other names as well. I will include a primer on celiac disease antibody testing which does a good job in covering the nomenclature variations connected with the various tests. Elevated IGG scores can certainly indicate celiac disease but they are more likely than elevated IGA tests to be caused by something else.

      Thank you— yes, valid and essential— The issue either doctors is that every one I have tried to talk to about this has essentially rolled their eyes and dismissed me as a hypochondriac, which gets discouraging. I believe a diagnosis would help me to be taken seriously by doctors as well as being validating, but can carry on without it.    There are many, probably most people in my area of my age and gender, who avoid gluten, but many just avoid it casually— eating the occasional plate of wheat pasta or a delicious-looking dessert, or baking cookies with wheat flour for gatherings.  That is not an option for me. I don’t eat other people’s cooking or go to restaurants that do not have strict cross- contamination procedures. It can be boring and lonely, and people do look at me as if I am being a bit dramatic but weeks of symptoms after a single small exposure has taught me to respect my experience.    Thank you very much for your response— sometimes I just need to hear that I am not crazy—
