Okay guys, my brain keeps playing tricks with my fingers, or the other way around :blink: There I was over on another thread spouting away about gluten free pasta, and what comes out but "gluten free pasture" :lol: You can take the girl off the farm but you can't take the farm out of the girl. Except that we don't even call them pastures or fields here in New Zealand; we call them paddocks.:unsure: However, we do put old nags out to pasture, which is probably where I belong :rolleyes:

WIH?! So I'm trying on my swimsuits yesterday trying to decide which ones to bring and I happened to turn around to see how the back looked...mistake, I know...but it appears that sometime recently I sat in cottage cheese and it STUCK to my arse and backs of me thighs! Then I spent another hour looking for sarongs and cute skirts to hide the mess. This is very upsetting! :rolleyes:

I don't think I posted this one. They also made a really nice one for the school but haven't put it out on Youtube yet because it might leak secrets to the competition. :ph34r: J is in the first picture, lower left corner in white.

They have a website. www.mmr2410.com It is updated only when you might expect teenagers would - when they have a lot of homework and a chemistry test.

Psappy psillies psinging psongs

racing robots

mushing dogs

Where whonce were penile earring threads

they talk of quakes and fires instead

Of teenage boys

of broken limbs

of scary docs

of missing buns

But Spring springs bring

Phresh phlooding phun

washing out what now is done

Build your boat and chuck the oars

grab the sides and ride the rides

We are the psillies

We live for fun

We dance and sing and smile again

We laugh in the face of fear

The one that says you move into an area and after a while buy a house. We decided to buy one where our hearts are (the town the kids live in) and keep a small apartment here. We've been house-hunting up here for a few months and something just didn't feel right. This feels right--we were planning on retiring back there anyway, so we'll just shift things up a bit.

:D :D :D

I feel I should also mention that since we are right out side of NYC, we can get a house down there and a small apartment here for as much or less than a home here. Not to mention phamily dinners at me house again.

:D Wackadoodle :D

      Potential celiac need advice

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.
