WIH is going on here?????

I leave you people alone for a day and the entire thread is covered in barf! Who's gonna clean this up i ask you???

We're all gonna have to rally behind our kween in case there's an attempted takeover by another thread. We are vulnerable with our weekend weakened monarch and all.

Weez failin cuz we ain't organized. Sick and sickly crew we are, no bamboozle about it. So here's my pirat platform, I think it is the best in modurn histories.

As a pirate I no bettern to trust anothur pirate. So there will be no cooking of the gluten free, soy free, dairy-free, nightshade free meals by the other pirates, we all cooks our own.

Female pirates get a full share of the loot although the captn gets 2 shares, standard pirate rates. Assumming I am elected captn I expect the following rules to be obliged by the female pirate crew: (you could say I am running for office here..) the mens folk are exempt.

The ladies pirats will clean the barfin's off the poop deck with strong lye or sailors blood every durn day prior to the midnight romp.

The ladie pirats will provide a handsome cask of Jamcian rum for every dinner to sate the capn's mealtime thurst.

The ladie pirats will provide a beyootiful boquet of flours, preferably blood periwinkles, golden buttercups, and silver lambsear for to brighten the capn's qtrs every full moon minimally.

The ladie pirats will sometimes sing a luverly ballad to the capn recoutin his heroic exploits and such other world shakin events as appropriate. Which is often.

The ladie pirats will keep the capn warm in his hammock when needed and will vigersly polish his pegleg on occasion until it is warm and glowing.

Meanwhile the men will fart and scratch and sail the ship in circles lookin for more rum and cheese. Heave ho! It's off the charts we go!

The Qween will be fed Energi bread and water in hur quarters if the capn is feelin specially nice that day. Not likerly!

I think that covers the high points, don't you? I could't quite remember the words to the Capn's ballad tho.

Any other capn wannbes please hoist yur flag! Vote getting is easy to do around heayar!

Ize waving my sword in the air! Join up now and spare yur neck! Kareiggne the first mate spot is open for you! :D

Not happy to hear that y'all are sick too! Pheeeeeel better soon!!!

And what's all this talk about an overthrow?! I'm holding on for dear life! You...can't...take...this...away...from...me!!!

Ooooooh, man... . . . . . ... the phloo is, in fact, still here.. . . . . ... got it bad....barfing, fever. . .. . . .....thanks a lot, Jack!

Aim fer the bowl!! (and pheel better!)

All right. I need to brief you all on a point of contention over here, and get your takes.

DH was suddenly sick last evening (surprise, surprise) and barphed twice. He's got it activated more through the other end. He's gone to work this morning, so we shall see.

But I digress: When he ran into the bathroom to throw up the first time, he was in there a minute or so, came out and lay down on the couch. He said, "I hate how the puke sometimes goes up into my nose". :huh: WIH? So upon questioning, I discovered a fact about my husband that I, in ALL the years we've been together, have never known.

He barphs standing up.

:huh:

Cannot imagine anyone even attempting this, let alone having it cross one's mind. He stands in front of the toilet and bends slightly forward at the waist, over the bowl.

Incredible.

AND hilarious, actually. :lol: Hell, just PICTURE it, with any acquaintance. I don't even think he bends his knees.

After I told him that this is a) a strange abomination of human conduct (even Neanderthals crept away and crouched with their mouths near the ground, or lay down with their heads hanging over an incline, I am certain) and b ) the definite reason that he is getting a back-up into his nose, he insisted that this is a common Vomit Stance.

Who in hell does this? Do we not all rush to the toilet and kneel or crouch? Canna imagine standing for this. . . .....

Well, you can learn new things about old, long-standing peeps, to be sure. . . .. . ...

How's his aim? Seems like you need to sit on the ground or a kids stool to get it all in the bowl. Also, when barfing, don't most people feel like they might fall over?

Sorry he's sick though. :(

Oh, the tales of suffering, leakages, explosions of barphdom, splash zones???!! :lol: T'is all too pityphul and hard to read whilst indulging in the first phood of the day (a sneaky cookie with me cup of tea).

I have also been known to barph in the erect position (well, semi-erect - somewhere between apes and Neanderthal man - because the knees and the tile floor do not marry well, and who has time to fiind appurtenances for barphing?? You just let her go, and hope!! However, my aim and projection is good :D

Hope all recover well and soon. We need to be at phull strength to phend ophph these mutinous varmints and all outside predators :ph34r:

Dear gawd, another one! Shrooom, in your semi-erect position do you get a system back-up into your nasal cavity, as well? You need Barph-time Bunting for yer knees (hey, there is likely a market for this. .... . . . . . .)..I must say that DH's aim is pretty damn impressive -- no sign of any splash-up or -over or -around.

Dunno why this strikes me as SOOOOOO phunny. . . ...... :lol: :lol: Just picturing someone, anyone, standing in front of the toilet to barph . . . . . .. ....I told the kids and I thought we were all gonna hyperventilate we was larfin' so hard.. .. . ..

Ya know Em, I forgot to mention it but although I'm a kneeler I do get nasal backup every time. It's really disgusting. I think it has more to do with the internal route than the posture.

Yah. I was gonna ask, how do you NOT get nasal reflux?

I'm afraid I don't get terribly close to the porcelain either. I'd rather clean the floor than have toilet water splash on my face. Fortunately, I'm not a puker. Last time, I think, was the last time I ate gluten....

I, also, am a stander. No matter how clean my toilets are (and they are pretty clean ;) ), the thought of anything splashing up and hitting me in the face is too much to bear. :unsure:

bend at waist, slight bend in knees is acceptable

grab hold of the top of the toilet

do yer business

use a clorox wipe to clean up splashage

start vomiting again bc you've knocked that chunk loose in yer nose when you sniffed (cuz puking makes yer nose and eyes run too)

brush yer teeth and wash yer face wif cool water

No, I manage to avoid barphing backups. Like Jyess, not in the habit of it at all - usually send things in the opposite direction :blink: - gravity, or something like that.

Your Majesty definitely needs some royal staff on deck to perform menial chores for her, especially during her time of indisposition. I am NOT, however, volunteering. I believe PeOter is closest and the servant Your Majesty should summon for barph cleanup and he will have a perfect understanding of Her Majesty's dietary needs for the preparation of the royal meals :P

I'm not a puker either. The last time was in 1987. I still lived in Syracuse and it followed the last time I have ever eaten chili.

Before that, only when I was a child once once a while and whilst pregnant the second time.

I've felt close lots of times though.....mostly when glutened.

I threw up occasionally during both pregnancies, but rarely at any other time. During my isolated events before the toilet I've ALWAYS kneeled, elbows on the bowl, and never had water/ barph splashage nor nasal backup. Mygawd, we have two Psillies who stand whilst barphing.. ... . .. ..for me this is a large percentage - - I was assuming that I would have a whole lot of trouble finding anyone else who does this. Perhaps I will post the question on Da Book, and be further shocked....... . . .... .

      @catnapt, Wheat germ has very little gluten in it. Gluten is the carbohydrate storage protein, what the flour is made from, the fluffy part. Just like with beans, there's the baby plant that will germinate ("germ"-inate) if sprouted, and the bean part is the carbohydrate storage protein.

      @catnapt, Wheat germ has very little gluten in it.  Gluten is  the carbohydrate storage protein, what the flour is made from, the fluffy part.  Just like with beans, there's the baby plant that will germinate  ("germ"-inate) if sprouted, and the bean part is the carbohydrate storage protein.   Wheat germ is the baby plant inside a kernel of wheat, and bran is the protective covering of the kernel.   Little to no gluten there.   Large amounts of lectins are in wheat germ and can cause digestive upsets, but not enough Gluten to provoke antibody production in the small intestines. Luckily you still have time to do a proper gluten challenge (10 grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks) before your next appointment when you can be retested.

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Hello, @asaT, I'm curious to know whether you are taking other B vitamins like Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3.  Malabsorption in Celiac disease affects all the water soluble B vitamins and Vitamin C.  Thiamine and Niacin are required to produce energy for all the homocysteine lowering reactions provided by Folate, Cobalamine and Pyridoxine.   Weight gain with a voracious appetite is something I experienced while malnourished.  It's symptomatic of Thiamine B1 deficiency.   Conversely, some people with thiamine deficiency lose their appetite altogether, and suffer from anorexia.  At different periods on my lifelong journey, I suffered this, too.   When the body doesn't have sufficient thiamine to turn food, especially carbohydrates, into energy (for growth and repair), the body rations what little thiamine it has available, and turns the carbs into fat, and stores it mostly in the abdomen.  Consuming a high carbohydrate diet requires additional thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  Simple carbohydrates (sugar, white rice, etc.) don't contain thiamine, so the body easily depletes its stores of Thiamine processing the carbs into fat.  The digestive system communicates with the brain to keep eating in order to consume more thiamine and other nutrients it's not absorbing.   One can have a subclinical thiamine insufficiency for years.  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function, so the symptoms can wax and wane mysteriously.  Symptoms of Thiamine insufficiency include stunted growth, chronic fatigue, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi (diarrhea, abdominal pain), heart attack, Alzheimer's, stroke, and cancer.   Thiamine improves bone turnover.  Thiamine insufficiency can also affect the thyroid.  The thyroid is important in bone metabolism.  The thyroid also influences hormones, like estrogen and progesterone, and menopause.  Vitamin D, at optimal levels, can act as a hormone and can influence the thyroid, as well as being important to bone health, and regulating the immune system.  Vitamin A is important to bone health, too, and is necessary for intestinal health, as well.   I don't do dairy because I react to Casein, the protein in dairy that resembles gluten and causes a reaction the same as if I'd been exposed to gluten, including high tTg IgA.  I found adding mineral water containing calcium and other minerals helpful in increasing my calcium intake.   Malabsorption of Celiac affects all the vitamins and minerals.  I do hope you'll talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing all eight B vitamins and the four fat soluble vitamins because they all work together interconnectedly.

The D3 does have coconut oil but it is non GMO, it is Gluten free, Soy free, Soybean free and Safflower oil free.  I have a cupboard full of supplements that did not agree with me -  I just keep trying and have finally settled on Sports Research. I take NAKA Women's Multi full spectrum, and have not felt sick after taking 2 capsules per day -  it is a Canadian company. I buy both from Amazon. I wish you well in your searching, I know how discouraging it all is. Florence.

      highly unlikely  NOTHING and I mean NOTHING else has ever caused me these kinds of symptoms I have no problem with dates, they are a large part of my diet In fact, I eat a very high fiber, very high vegetable and bean diet and have for many years now. It's considered a whole foods plant based or plant forward diet (I do now eat some lean ground turkey but not much) I was off dairy for years but recently had to add back plain yogurt to meet calcium needs that I am not allowed to get from supplements (I have not had any problem with the yogurt)   I eat almost no processed foods. I don't eat out. almost everything I eat, I cook myself I am going to keep a food diary but to be honest, I already know that it's wheat products and also barley that are the problem, which is why I gradually stopped eating and buying them. When I was eating them, like back in early 2024, when I was in the middle of moving and ate out (always had bread or toast or rolls or a sub or pizza) I felt terrible but at that time was so busy and exhausted that I never stopped to think it was the food. Once I was in my new place, I continued to have bread from time to time and had such horrible joint pain that I was preparing for 2 total knee replacements as well as one hip! The surgery could not go forward as I was (and still am) actively losing calcium from my bones. That problem has yet to be properly diagnosed and treated   anyway over time I realized that I felt better when I stopped eating bread. Back at least 3 yrs ago I noticed that regular pasta made me sick so I switched to brown rice pasta and even though it costs a lot more, I really like it.   so gradually I just stopped buying and eating foods with gluten. I stopped getting raisin bran when I was constipated because it made me bloated and it didn't help the constipation any more (used to be a sure bet that it would in the past)   I made cookies and brownies using beans and rolled oats and dates and tahini and I LOVE them and have zero issues eating those I eat 1 or more cans of beans per day easily can eat a pound of broccoli - no problem! Brussels sprouts the same thing.   so yeh it's bread and related foods that are clearly the problem  there is zero doubt in my mind

Last week I decided to try a Floradix Magnesium supplement which seems to be helping me to sleep better.  It is a liquid magnesium supplement, so easy to take.  It is gluten free (unlike the Floradix iron supplement).  Might be worth a try.
