They expect you to pay those things come hail, snow, flood or earthquakes.

I have tried several times to collar and leash some new Psillies and drag them over. Maybe that's the wrong way to get them here? It works with stray dogs!

Oh, its all just the horribleness of life. You know, sometimes the stamps don't stick on the envelopes right, and the birds don't just sing beyootiful tunes but they also poopeth on your head, or right in your eye, and then the tax season on the calendar always seems to come around right after it finally warms up. They could at least make us pay taxes in the winter when we are already miserables and sunshine deprived. And then the wine box runs out on Friday night, and whutz a person to do with all theze problems?

Oh, the spillies are gettin fuel and far buttween. Tharz jest two muck negatory stuf in the wurld snooze these daze. And then even Shroomster gets billz delivered in the midzt of a little tiny volcanic quake zone with nothing but bad water to warsh in. Geez!

And then the qween proclaims milk pfludz for everyone and Carun sends her sons robots to annihilate the other kidz, and Mocha the bunny croaks the big one, and iz made into a neckluz and earingz, Muffin the cat-head lets a mouse loose in the house, Lowass gives the doctur a bunch of testz tu doo, BE makes an appearunce at Gar's house, and Peopter feeds the critters over the weekend, and LiveLoveTiwlight peakz in on us at night, kinda scary, and Curly-Lezzur admitz to being a bone-lover since a leetle gurl.

And itz Friday so whoopee! :D

Hey you, Gee Eff, we are both on Friday at the same time :blink: How can that be? They must've twigged the calendar a little bit or the moon has shifted on its acksis or we have moved more than the half meter they sez we did. Whatever, we is aligned momentarily and I luv your wackiness and you iz making me laff :lol: Thankx :D

How would you like to havva the two tax sezuns with the too different times and the too different sets of rulz and the nitemears that go on all year and then they tellz you that becuzza the exchange rate, you did not losa da munny, you akshully gaineda the munny, and then you have to pay more munny becuzza dat gain, which is munny that you have already lost and which you don't have becuz you just alosta it?? And wiv dat it really duzzn't matta what tima the year it is cuz you just teara out da hare and go GAAAaaahHH. :blink::wacko:

So now it's not just glooten from my sham - pooh that I have to wurry about gettin' in me mouf, but all de bugs and s$#&zeroos and all de uvver hidyus phings phloating around innit,and I is so glad I don't have to rub de stix togevver to make flaim to boil de water to make it psafe. :P Not to menshun phinding de stix :unsure: So whooppee rite back atcher.

Gee Eff, the robot seems to be only interested in annhilating inflatable pool toys. However, the boys are playing lacrosse and enjoy hitting others with the sticks. Funny to go to a game and hear moms screaming " Hit him, Jimmy!". It goes against the Mom Code.

Madeleine got Lacrosse info yesterday. She put it on the kitchen table... I'm afraid to ask her if she wants to play :unsure: I hafta say, though, as docile as I was in high school (yeah, hard to believe :P ), field hockey was my game! I beat the CRAP out of guys bigger than me. It was GREAT!!!

I wants ter lie on a beach and have a lovely cabana boy bring me mai tais. Guess I'll settle for a hot tub in the rain.

I'll take pictures of that for ya next week ;)

The stages of grief are moving thru the house. Maddie is still crying off and on, but she's more mad than sad right now. We have a new baby on the way. He/she is only 4 weeks old right now so we will pick him/her up the first weekend of April if they're ready. Reputable breeder, amazing woman. I'll post some pictures when I know which one will be ours. I am letting her pick out the baby for us. She hand raises them, so I told her what we are looking for and I want her to pick the best fit. I think everyone will be ready by then.

-Maybe Max will stop singing 'Dead Bunny' songs by then...... :rolleyes:

Hi Dearest Psillies,

This is the first place I turned after I saw the doctor. She has a really nice bedside manner so that's good. Thank you all for the love and support. It didn't really freak me out. Klark was more upset. I guess it's the research I did and how slowly it progresses. I'm sure if she finds out anything prior to my 2 week visit she'll call me in.

So, how did you like Jan Terry and I don't want to lose you tonight?

Love to you all,

      Oh wow! Thanks for this information! I’m going to try the Benfotiamine again and will also add a B-complex to my supplements. Presently, I just take sublingual B12 (methylcobalomin). Is supplementation for celiacs always necessary even though you remain gluten-free and you’re healing as shown on endoscopy? I also take D3, mag glycinate, and try to get calcium through diet. I am trying to bump up my energy level because I don’t sleep very well and feel fatigued quite often. I’m now hopeful that adding the Benfotiamine and B-complex will help. I really appreciate your explanation and advice! Thanks again Knitty Kitty!

      @Hmart, The reason why your intestinal damage was so severe, yet your tTg IgA was so minimal can be due to cutting back on gluten (and food in general) due to worsening symptoms.  The tTg IgA antibodies are made in the intestines.  While three grams of gluten per day for several weeks are enough to cause gastrointestinal symptoms, ten grams of gluten per day for for several weeks are required to provoke sufficient antibody production so that the antibodies move out of the intestines and into the blood stream where they can be measured in blood tests.  Since you reduced your gluten consumption before testing, the antibody production went down and did not leave the intestines, hence lower than expected tTg IgA.   Still having abdominal pain and other symptoms this far out is indicative of nutritional deficiencies.  With such a severely damaged small intestine, you are not absorbing sufficient nutrients, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1, so your body us burning stored fat and even breaking down muscle to fuel your body.   Yes, it is a very good idea to supplement with vitamins and minerals during healing.  The eight essential B vitamins are water soluble and easily lost with diarrhea.  The B vitamins all work together interconnectedly, and should be supplemented together.  Taking vitamin supplements provides your body with greater opportunity to absorb them.  Thiamine and the other B vitamins cannot be stored for long, so they must be replenished every day.  Thiamine tends to become depleted first which leads to Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a condition that doctors frequently fail to recognize.  Symptoms of Gastrointestinal Beriberi are abdominal pain and nausea, but neuropathy can also occur, as well as body and joint pain, headaches and more.  Heart rhythm disruptions including tachycardia are classic symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  Heart attack patients are routinely administered thiamine now.   Blood tests for vitamins are notoriously inaccurate.  You can have "normal" blood levels, while tissues and organs are depleted.  Such is the case with Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a thiamine deficiency in the digestive tract.  Eating a diet high in carbohydrates, like rice, starches, and sugar, can further deplete thiamine.  The more carbohydrates one eats, the more thiamine is required per calorie to turn carbs into energy.  Burning stored fats require less thiamine, so in times of thiamine shortage, the body burns fat and muscles instead.  Muscle wasting is a classic symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  A high carbohydrate diet may also promote SIBO and/or Candida infection which can also add to symptoms.  Thiamine is required to keep SIBO and Candida in check.   Thiamine works with Pyridoxine B 6, so if Thiamine is low and can't interact with Pyridoxine, the unused B 6 accumulates and shows up as high.   Look into the Autoimmune Protocol diet.  Dr. Sarah Ballantyne is a Celiac herself.  Her book "The Paleo Approach" has been most helpful to me.  Following the AIP diet made a huge improvement in my symptoms.  Between the AIP diet and correcting nutritional deficiencies, I felt much better after a long struggle with not feeling well.   Do talk to your doctor about Gastrointestinal Beriberi.  Share the article linked below. Thiamine, gastrointestinal beriberi and acetylcholine signaling https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12014454/ Keep us posted on your progress!

      Thanks, that's a great addition that I hadn't thought of.

      Other diseases, medical conditions, medications and even (for some people) some non-gluten foods can cause villous atrophy. There is also something called refractory celiac disease but it is pretty uncommon.
    • trents
      knitty kitty asks a very relevant question. So many people make the mistake of experimenting with the gluten free diet or even a reduced gluten diet soon before getting formally tested.
