Well, the Kiwi guy has got you covered then :D Wouldn't want to offer something that wasn't unique ;)

There is no one more unique than our shroomie! :wub: :wub: :wub:

Welcome back Rache - I'm so sorry you're going through this but you are a tough Lady.

And LoLo - it's good to see you pop in when you can. :) I hope the healing is going well and Clark is pampering you proper. :)

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.

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:

      Blood results

      By Russ H · Posted

      The EMA test is an old and less sensitive test for anti-tTG2 antibodies. It relies on a technician using a microscope to check for fluorescence of a labelled substrate (typically monkey oesophagus or human umbilicus), giving a simple positive/negative result. It is similar to running a standard anti-tTG2 test but with a high cut-off, making it more specific but less sensitive. Transient rises in tTG2 can be caused by e.g. viral infections and inflammation. Very high levels of anti-tTG2 (>x10 standard range) are almost certainly coeliac disease but moderately raised levels can have several causes apart from coeliac disease. Other food allergies can cause villi blunting but that is much rarer than coeliac disease or other non-coeliac causes. Not All That Flattens Villi Is Celiac Disease: A Review of Enteropathies

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By Theresa2407 · Posted

      Maybe you have a low  intolerance to Wheat.   Rye, Barley and Malt are the gluten in Celiac disease.  It has always been stated Wheat and Gluten, not just a Wheat intolerance.  Barley will keep me in bed for (2) weeks.  Gut, Migrains, Brain fog, Diahrea.  It is miserable.  And when I was a toddler the doctor would give me a malt medicine because I always had Anemia and did not grow.  Boy was he off.  But at that time the US didn't know anyone about Celiac.  This was the 1940s and 50s.  I had my first episode at 9 months and did not get a diagnosis until I was 50.  My immune system was so shot before being diagnoised, so now I live with the consequences of it. I was so upset when Manufacturers didn't want to label their products so they added barley to the product.  It was mostly the cereal industry.  3 of my favorite cereals were excluded because of this. Malt gives me a bad Gut reaction.

      Possible celiac - need advice

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Do you have the results of your endoscopy? Did you do a celiac disease blood panel before that?  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      Celiac or not??

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It is odd that your Tissue Transglutaminase (TTG) IgA level has bounced from the "inconclusive" range (7.9, 9.8) down to a negative level (5.3), only to climb back up near the positive threshold. This inconsistency, coupled with your ongoing symptoms of malabsorption and specific nutrient deficiencies, is a strong clinical indicator that warrants a more thorough investigation than a simple "satisfactory" sign-off. A negative blood test does not definitively rule out celiac disease, especially with such variable numbers and a classic symptomatic picture. You are absolutely right to seek a second opinion and push for a referral to a gastroenterologist. A biopsy remains the gold standard for a reason, and advocating for one is the most direct path to getting the answers you need to finally address the root cause of your suffering.
