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 <_<

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

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

although somehow he looks like a Sherman to me.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      I realized it is actually important to get an official diagnosis because then insurance can cover bone density testing and other lab work to see if any further damage has been done because of it. Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      Been off this forum for years. Is it that important that you get an official diagnosis of something? It appears like you had a trigger (wheat, gluten, whatever) and removing it has resolved your symptom. I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a...

Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have 4 kids, and I really want to know. If I really do have it then they may have increased risk.

I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free condition. I was diagnosed over 20 years ago and have been symptom free only excluding wheat, rye and barley. I tolerate all naturally gluten free whole foods including things like beans which actually helps to form the stools.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/
