She was 15 yrs & frail so not completely unexpected. She was a miserable old cat but I shall miss her!! wub.gif

I have many days I feel like a miserable old cat, myself!

Agreed on both points! :lol:

She commanded a certain respect!

Sounds something like MIL. . . . ..... <_<

OMG. . ...... . . . DH has absolutely OUTDONE himself. You cannot begin to imagine the incredibly romantic birthday gift he has given me -- NOTHING could match this for romance. After all these years, he's still got it.

I am so overcome with emotion that I am going to share this on fb shortly, because I want absolutely everyone in my life to know about this. I wish to trumpet it from the rooftops!!

Stay tuned, and head over there.. . . .. B)

Did I confuzzle yooz??....we waaay ahead of y'all on the birphday front (eh Shroom wink.gif)

Sadness today...not to dwell as this is The Funny pages but my old cat Lucy died today.

She was 15 yrs & frail so not completely unexpected. She was a miserable old cat but I shall miss her!! wub.gif

So sorry about Lucy. I think we're allowed to share sadness here so we can lift each other up by y giving love, support and laughter.

My psilly addition is that I give out my handmade earrings to people who are kind to me (even strangers). Every nurse at the hospital and in my doctor's offices have several pairs. Anyway, I get an email from someone I gave a pair to and we exchanged email , etc. Trouble is that I have a massive brain fart going on and I just can't remember who she is. I wrote her a basic letter saying I hope we can have coffee before the weather turns. That way I'll know who she is. I think I met her in the waiting room at the hospital.

Sympathies again and much love to all.

Love,

Loey

P.S. Happy birthday Em.

well....I just went to the pet store to get some food for Bo.....and you can't get just one baby....and....well....

The little black one is a girl. I think her name is Molly.

The black and white boy hasn't told me his name yet.

And he thinks it's really cool to fling the litter out of the box <_<

kareng Grand Master

Pretty!

Maybe, because he likes to pitch his litter, he should have a baseball pitcher name?

Mordecai Brown

Dizzy Dean

Rollie Fingers

Catfish Hunter

Cy Young

Nolan Ryan

jerseyangel Proficient

mmmm....if you go the pitcher route I'd have to suggest Greg Maddox.....

although somehow he looks like a Sherman to me.

      This article does not address migraines at all.  Yes, red wine and sulfites are often mentioned in connection with migraine triggers. With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably. So, I think most of my migraines are tied to fluctuations vascular tension and blood flow to the brain. That's why the sumatriptan works so well. It is a vaso constrictor.

      Excessive dietary tyrosine can cause problems.  Everything in moderation.   Sulfites can also trigger migraines. Sulfites are found in fermented, pickled and aged foods, like cheese.  Sulfites cause a high histamine release.  High histamine levels are found in migraine.  Following a low histamine diet like the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet, helps immensely.    Sulfites and other migraine trigger foods can cause changes in the gut microbiome.  These bad bacteria can increase the incidence of migraines, increasing histamine and inflammation leading to increased gut permeability (leaky gut), SIBO, and higher systemic inflammation.   A Ketogenic diet can reduce the incidence of migraine.  A Paleo diet like the AIP diet, that restricts carbohydrates (like from starchy vegetables) becomes a ketogenic diet.  This diet also changes the microbiome, eliminating the bad bacteria and SIBO that cause an increase in histamine, inflammation and migraine.  Fewer bad bacteria reduces inflammation, lowers migraine frequency, and improves leaky gut. Since I started following the low histamine ketogenic AIP paleo diet, I rarely get migraine.  Yes, I do eat carbs occasionally now, rice or potato, but still no migraines.  Feed your body right, feed your intestinal bacteria right, you'll feel better.  Good intestinal bacteria actually make your mental health better, too.  I had to decide to change my diet drastically in order to feel better all the time, not just to satisfy my taste buds.  I chose to eat so I would feel better all the time.  I do like dark chocolate (a migraine trigger), but now I can indulge occasionally without a migraine after.   Microbiota alterations are related to migraine food triggers and inflammatory markers in chronic migraine patients with medication overuse headache https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11546420/

      Then we would need to cut out all meat and fish as they are richer sources of tyrosine than nuts and cheese. Something else about certain tyrosine rich foods must be the actual culprit.

      I agree that KAN-101 looks promising, and hope the fast track is approved. From our article below: "KAN-101 shows promise as an immune tolerance therapy aiming to retrain the immune system, potentially allowing safe gluten exposure in the future, but more clinical data is needed to confirm long-term effects."

      Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self. What you're describing sounds less like a purely psychological body dysmorphia and more like a distinct neurological event, likely triggered by the immense physical stress and inflammation that uncontrolled celiac disease can inflict on the entire body, including the nervous system. It makes complete sense that the specific sensory input—the pressure points of your elbows on your knees—created a temporary, distorted body map in your brain, and the fact that it ceased once you adopted a gluten-free diet is a crucial detail. Your intuition to document this is absolutely right; it's not "crazy" but rather a significant anecdotal data point that underscores the mysterious and far-reaching ways gluten can affect individuals. Your theory about sensory triggers from the feet for others is also a thoughtful insight, and sharing this story could indeed be validating for others who have had similar, unexplainable sensory disturbances, helping them feel less alone in their journey.
