Clark and Tony are pampering me. Now I need to find out who stole my real son. laugh.gif. I had him open one present tonight (we celebrate Chranukah & I also need the box to wrap another present). He's into wearing sports jackets and ties and fedoras so I got him a Scarface tie. He really seemed to get a kick out of it. He seems much more comfortable in his skin than we've ever seen him - not to say he wasn't self confident. College and having to be independent from us was a BIG thing but now it's coming together.

Love,

Loey

P.S. Rach - you're my hero. You have so much on your plate and juggle it with grace. Just remember on the day you think you might drop something let us help you. Send an SOS because we're all here to catch you.

Hey guys, we're fine :)B) All shook up again, but what else is new. At least the stuph didn't all fall out of my pantry :lol: All the tiles are still on the roof (I think :blink: ) and I poured myself a glass of whine even though it's only 2:30 p.m. I think Miss Em, my kitty, would like some too. Apparently there were a few panicked shoppers in the malls - I pledged not to go there this Christmas, and haven't :unsure:

So they say good news travels fast - sheesh, so does bad!! Twenty minutes and Lisa is on it :blink:

:lol:

I think that most things that were going to get broken have already been broken most places, so hope that the rest of the city is okay. This one was about 10 kns out to sea or it would have been worse - all that nice heavy salt water seems to muffle it a little. :D

Anyways, just checkin' in. :) Off for another glass of wine.

I was just back chopping up the preserved ginger when anudder one got going pretty good! Some things from the pantry but it didn't last at long. Dang this Pacific Rim of Fire!!!! :ph34r:

Perhaps you aren't meant to cook tonight? Maybe just some snacks and another glass of wine? Perhaps a little tuna marinated in wine for the kitty?

I don't know if I can find the kitty. She was really cool with the first, but now... she has disappeared. And I am already on my third glass of wine. I will be typing like Jyess soon. :D

Shroomie- we're all praying for your safety. Drink away and have a glass for me. I'm not allowed to drink anymore but my best friend from college is trying to send me MJ. I have my approval to get the ID card for MJ but they don't have any Compassion Centers open yet.

All My Love,

Loey

Maybe a little scary, more just rediculous drama. I'm in between patients right now so I'll do it right now. Give me at least a 1/2 hour. It's a loooooooong story!!

Gaaaaahhhhhhh... . . SO much to do today, but I'll be checking my email RELIGIOUSLY through the next couple of hours.. . ...thank gawd for my ipod, which will let me check these things whilst I stand at the bank, struggle through the liquor store, walk with the dogs. .. . . ....

Shrooooomie, I checked on here this morning to see if you'd posted, and got the good news. Then, I could carry on with my morning. :rolleyes::D Woulda had my ipod on the treadmill as well, methinks. . .. . ...

Um. . . . .. .. . ..there have been large earth tremors on the other side of the world, which we are ALL abreast of and checking in here to ensure that Shroooomie's okay. However, there is an equally terrifying thing happening on THIS side of the earth, and NONE of you Psills have been asking if I am all right.

It's okay..... . .I realize how busy everyone is, and my welfare cannot be foremost on everybody's mind.

Remember, now.....it's Christmas time.

MIL has landed.

Why do you let her use your car? Aren't the keys lost? Maybe a hose or the battery cables have come loose?

Seriously, here in Kansas, you can anonymously report an older person's driving. They will be called in for a driving test. Can you do that there?

She lives up in the Yukon, so that territory can deal with her driving infractions. One should think that the Alaska Highway would be the safest thoroughfare to place a hapless driver -- long stretches of straight, flat road, reasonable speed limit -- she has, however, managed to take out guard rails and First Nations elders portaging along the shoulder.. . . . ..

She rarely takes either of our cars out, now........and the kids wear full hockey gear when they do head out with her.

:huh:

:lol:

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @sleuth, Has your son been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  All of those symptoms can be caused by malnutrition.  I had severe malnutrition that went unrecognized by my doctors.  Intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, and gastrointestinal distress are symptoms of deficiencies in the eight essential B vitamins, especially Thiamine B1, which becomes low first because the demand is higher when we're sick.     Celiac Disease causes inflammation and damage of the intestinal lining which inhibits absorption of essential nutrients.  Checking for nutritional deficiencies is part of proper follow up care for people with celiac disease.   Is your son taking any vitamin supplements?  Most supplements contain thiamine mononitrate which in not readily absorbed and utilized by the body.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that is shown to promote intestinal healing.  Benfotiamine is available over the counter.  Benfotiamine is safe and nontoxic.   Is your son eating processed gluten-free foods?  Gluten-free processed foods are not required to be enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.   Is your son following a low histamine diet?  Histamine is released as part of the immune response to gluten and other foods high in histamine.  High levels of histamine in the brain can cause anxiety, insomnia, and depression.  The body needs the B vitamins to make the enzyme Diamine Oxidase (DAO) to break down and clear histamine.  DAO supplements are available over the counter.  Vitamin C helps clear histamine as well.  Some people find over the counter antihistamines helpful as well, but they're not for long term use.   Nicotine has antihistamine-like properties, but can also irritate the gut.  Tobacco, from which nicotine is derived, is a nightshade (like tomatoes, potatoes, peppers and eggplant).  Nightshades contain alkaloids which affect gastrointestinal permeability, causing leaky gut syndrome.  Nicotine can cause gastrointestinal irritation and alter for the worse the microbiome. Safer alternatives to Nicotine that have antihistamine properties include Lemon Balm (Sweet Melissa),  Passion Flower, Chamomile, and Bilberry.  They can be taken as supplements, extracts, or tea.  These will help with the anxiety, insomnia and depression in a much safer way. Oolong tea is also helpful.  Oolong tea contains the amino acid L-Theanine which helps the digestive tract heal.  (L -Theanine supplements are available over the counter, if not a tea drinker.)  Tryptophan, a form of Niacin B3, also helps calm digestive symptoms.  Another amino acid, L-Lysine, can help with anxiety and depression.  I've used these for years without problems.   What ways to cope have you tried in the past?

      In general if it is labelled gluten-free then it should be ok for most celiacs, however, those who are super sensitive (which is most who have dermatitis herpetiformis) may want to eat only certified gluten-free items, which are supposed to test down to 10ppm (but don't always!).

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Have faith, you will survive. I get mine from Pipingrock.com.  500 capsules of 10,000 IU for $22.  That is almost two years worth for me.  250 caps 5000 IU for $6.69 if you only take 5,000 a day.  It's like half the price of Walmart.

      Outgrow celiac?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Testing can't alone be trusted.  Else why would it take so many years of testing and retesting and misdiagnosis to finally be told, yes you have Celiac Disease. As to what to eat, I like pre 1950 style food.  Before the advent of TV dinners.  Fresh food is better for you, and cooking from scratch is cheaper.  Watch Rachel Ray's 30 Minute Meals for how to cook.  Keep in mind that she is not gluten free, but her techniques are awesome.  Just use something else instead of wheat, barley, rye. Dr Fuhrman is a ex cardiologist.  His book Eat to Live and Dr Davis' book Wheatbelly were instrumental in my survival.
