I though perhaps your name was pronounced differently than the standard "Karen". With the g added I had made it "Car-Eng-Gee" said really fast in my mind. :lol:

Here's a secret- The G is the start of my last name :ph34r:

In my brain I call her both 'Caring' and Ka-regn (like Bahrain).

I used to work with someone named "Kay" and she had this problem too. Whenever I said Okay, even if not talking to her she thought I was talking to her. It was very confusing at times.

If you must have a name besides Manna, y'all can call me Irene. Will that one be sufficient butchering material? :D

Why, yes, that will be sufficient . . . welcome Eye-Reane!

Hey! And what a coincidence! For our Kherrighnne is really caring... . . . ...and... . . .well, perhaps she is also from Bahrain, too! She could have moved to the States as a child. .. . . . .....notice that we've never seen a pic of her face.... . . . . .

Isn't Bahrain one of those countries where everyone gets a share of the oil money? Too bad I'm not from there.

Not orange but darker & a bit brownish. At this point in my life, it depends on how long since I last colored. ;)

There is a pic of me on my profile.

And, yes.... That is my real butt.

Well, that is great timing, then... . . ....buying new jeans when you feel puny makes anything you try on look decent, I'd bet... . . . ..

I never feel puny. Particularly when I've been glutened - - then I feel HUGE. Phat, bloated... . . . . ..gargantuan. <_<

Hope you're feeling better right quick, Mannnna... . . .

Loey! Um .. . . . ....what is ANA?. . . . . . ..:unsure:. .. . .

Hello dear pfiends.

ANA is an autoimmune disease and can cause Lupus or Rheumatoid Arthritis. He's had chronic joint pain for years that he's attributed to working out & Martial Arts. We're going to the doctor with him tomorrow. I'm sure that Tony will blame it on dear old mom.

Meanwhile I must have been drinking with you all - I fell last night. Clark thought I was sleepwalking. He & Tony heard a thud & Clark ran up and found me asleep on the floor. Of course my back feels horrible. Seeing my chiropractor in the AM.

Hope everyone is pheeling well -

i miss you!!!

All right, sb2178.. . . . ...the unofficial edict around here is that we need your real name, or a close proximity, so that we can rightly butcher it and make it psilly. Kherrighnne, Jyaghnutt, Jyesssss, Low, leeeesargh, Gnick, Soooooozle, etc.

Suppose we could just sillify your forum name, but it somehow isn't quite as funny.

Stephanie. I yield that bit of info with the requirement that it NOT become step-on-me. irg. Can you just imagine the flat "I'm not amused look" that I gave to school photograph photographers for years on end?

Psillify it otherwise freely. (Pstephanie? too many syllables, perhaps?)

Lacking the wine, I'm going to go make myself a gin and tonic. And I might be back with it.

Ummm . . . we don't actually change your name . . . we just spell it fo-net-ick-lee. We like to use lots of silent letters like g's and h's etc . . . if you mispronounce our spelling, well that's all on you, Ghstefphunee. :P:lol:

I is happily sunburnt. Garden has a slug barrier around it. Trees have been uprooted from the gutters. Assorted unknown vegetative things ripped out and waiting to dry out in the sun. Piles of plastic pots from things that died last year have been tossed.

Startin' on the wine now.

Stymphony, I could like it. Bob's out-- bob is the (invisible) frisbee player who never seems to catch or return it. We think he has issues (shhhh....).

my garden was still overly damp to do more than sneak and handful of spinach and a few peas... sigh.

My gin and tonic is delish tho.

      Covid caused reoccurrence of DH without eating gluten

      By Jacki Espo · Posted

      This happened to me as well. What’s weirder is that within a couple hours of taking paxlovid it subsided. I thought maybe I got glutened but after reading your post not so sure.

      New Celiac Mama in My 30s

      By Mari · Posted

      Hi Tiffany. Thank you for writing your dituation and  circumstancesin such detail and so well writte, too. I particularly noticed what you wrote about brain for and feeling like your brain is swelling and I know from my own experiences that's how it feel and your brain really does swell and you get migraines.    Way back when I was in my 20s I read a book by 2 MD allergist and they described their patient who came in complaining that her brain, inside her cranium, was swelling  and it happened when she smelled a certain chemical she used in her home. She kept coming back and insisting her brain actually swelled in her head. The Drs couldn't explain this problem so they, with her permission, performed an operation where they made a small opening through her cranium, exposed her to the chemical then watched as she brain did swell into the opening. The DRs were amazed but then were able to advise her to avoid chemicals that made her brain swell. I remember that because I occasionally had brain fog then but it was not a serious problem. I also realized that I was becoming more sensitive to chemicals I used in my work in medical laboratories. By my mid forties the brain fog and chemicals forced me to leave my  profession and move to a rural area with little pollution. I did not have migraines. I was told a little later that I had a more porous blood brain barrier than other people. Chemicals in the air would go up into my sinused and leak through the blood brain barrier into my brain. We have 2 arteries  in our neck that carry blood with the nutrients and oxygen into the brain. To remove the fluids and used blood from the brain there are only capillaries and no large veins to carry it away so all those fluids ooze out much more slowly than they came in and since the small capillaries can't take care of extra fluid it results in swelling in the face, especially around the eyes. My blood flow into my brain is different from most other people as I have an arterial ischema, adefectiveartery on one side.   I have to go forward about 20 or more years when I learned that I had glaucoma, an eye problem that causes blindness and more years until I learned I had celiac disease.  The eye Dr described my glaucoma as a very slow loss of vision that I wouldn't  notice until had noticeable loss of sight.  I could have my eye pressure checked regularly or it would be best to have the cataracts removed from both eyes. I kept putting off the surgery then just overnight lost most of the vision in my left eye. I thought at the I had been exposed to some chemical and found out a little later the person who livedbehind me was using some chemicals to build kayaks in a shed behind my house. I did not realize the signifance  of this until I started having appointments with a Dr. in a new building. New buildings give me brain fog, loss of balance and other problems I know about this time I experienced visual disturbances very similar to those experienced by people with migraines. I looked further online and read that people with glaucoma can suffer rapid loss of sight if they have silent migraines (no headache). The remedy for migraines is to identify and avoid the triggers. I already know most of my triggers - aromatic chemicals, some cleaning materials, gasoline and exhaust and mold toxins. I am very careful about using cleaning agents using mostly borax and baking powder. Anything that has any fragrance or smell I avoid. There is one brand of dishwashing detergent that I can use and several brands of  scouring powder. I hope you find some of this helpful and useful. I have not seen any evidence that Celiac Disease is involved with migraines or glaucoma. Please come back if you have questions or if what I wrote doesn't make senseto you. We sometimes haveto learn by experience and finding out why we have some problems. Take care.       The report did not mention migraines.

      My only proof

      By Mari · Posted

      Hi Jmartes71 That is so much like my story! You probably know where Laytonville is and that's where I was living just before my 60th birthday when the new Dr. suggested I could have Celiacs. I didn't go on a gluten challange diet before having the Celiac panel blood test drawn. The results came back as equivical as one antibody level was very high but another, tissue transaminasewas normal. Itdid show I was  allergic to cows milk and I think hot peppers. I immediately went gluten free but did not go in for an endoscopy. I found an online lab online that would do the test to show if I had a main celiac gene (enterolab.com). The report came back that I had inherited a main celiac gene, DQ8, from one parent and a D!6 from the other parent. That combination is knows to sym[tons of celiac worse than just inheriting one main celiac gene. With my version of celiac disease I was mostly constipated but after going gluten-free I would have diarrhea the few times I was glutened either by cross contamination or eating some food containing gluten. I have stayed gluten-free for almost 20 years now and knew within a few days that it was right for me although my recovery has been slow.   When I go to see a  medical provide and tell them I have celiacs they don't believe me. The same when I tell them that I carry a main celiac gene, the DQ8. It is only when I tell them that I get diarrhea after eating gluten that they realize that I might have celiac disease. Then they will order th Vitamin B12 and D3 that I need to monitor as my B12 levels can go down very fast if I'm not taking enough of it. Medical providers haven't been much help in my recovery. They are not well trained in this problem. I really hope this helps ypu. Take care.
