"TURN IT OFFFFFFFFFF, TURN IT OFFFFFFFFFFF!!! PUT IN PRINCESS BRIDE!!! I WANNA WATCH PRINCESS BRIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

At least he has good taste.

kareng Grand Master

Meeeee Tooooo!!

Excited to check it out!

My big strong 5yo boy wanted to watch The Goonies. He was so excited and promised me he could handle it. He made it about 20 minutes in, until the introduction of Sloth. I hear him screaming, head under the blanket, "TURN IT OFFFFFFFFFF, TURN IT OFFFFFFFFFFF!!! PUT IN PRINCESS BRIDE!!! I WANNA WATCH PRINCESS BRIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

I was trying so hard not to laugh. I made it until he told me that I should 'make' Madeleine watch it. Like it was a punishment :lol: :lol: I was thinking about getting Jurassic Park from Netflix, but perhaps we shall wait 10 years or so... :rolleyes:

My kids were like 11 & 14 when they watched it & said it was scary.

The webcast wasn't working this morning I'm told. Hope it works this afternoon

Love both those movies . . .

My favourite scene from The Goonies is where Chunk is "confessing"

Bah!! Can't keep on using up bandwidth, otherwise we get cut back to dial-up speed. Third world broadband (or maybe even fourth :rolleyes: )

So here's my recipe for a good night's sleep (NOT!!!)

1. Eat the special dinner hubs made for you :wub: even after discovering he added some red pepper flakes :( = 6 hours a-fib

2. Mistakenly take diuretic for another bedtime med :rolleyes: = 4 trips to the john

3. Take flucoxacillin at bedtime, have it unknowingly stick in your esophagus, wonder WIH you are having acid reflux :unsure:

4. Have cat jumping on and off bed, including a session of hair-licking (mine), and landing on me once (all 16 lbs) :blink:

5. Have both hubs and cat snoring, but not in unison :ph34r:

6. Follow all this up with a 4.3 earthquake aftershock :o

Oh well, just another night in the saltmines.

Oh Ra-Shelle,

This brings back memories of all the movies we took Tony to and I had to get a "Reel Sorry" pass to come back to see another movie for free and play video games with him while Clark finished watching the movie. Tony was also afraid of clowns.

Hugs,

For sure! We watched Ever After this past weekend. He liked that one too :P

My kids were like 11 & 14 when they watched it & said it was scary.

I can't remember when I first saw it, I just know I've seen it sooooo many times it's ridiculous! The only movie that's ever freaked me out as a kid, and still does is the Disney movie Watcher in the Woods. Freakin' FREAKY!!!!

Have I been missing something? :blink: Not part of my culture :P

You've never seen it?! You MUST watch it!! True classic!!

So here's my recipe for a good night's sleep (NOT!!!)

Holey Moley! Hope tonight's better!!

      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.
