This tests the rigidity of a 'flipover' definition, i'd say. Must it be max flip, as in (n-1) zeroes?

Hmmmm.......methinks one needs to hit a mellennial phlipover to garner a nod of notice..... . . ..I assume for phluids, too.... :unsure:.....No deluges in the past few days, but I am surrounded by cat vomit (at least, more cat vomit than usual). What is it with these creatures and regular puking? Is it a carnivore/desert thing? Do everyone's cats regularly sit, quiet and comfortable, and suddenly throw up, then walk a few feet away, then settle into another sit and begin cleaning their faces with their paws? Like, "ho hum........jeez, I gotta get three more o' those in today......what time is it?"

Actually, this may happen around here even more than I realize, as there are two resident dogs who likely find a sudden vomit cache quite........(:greenguy:) ..... . .... .delicious.....

Yep, Ptaoughmmn, 70% is good. You were well below 50, I am sure, when we were last hearing from you..... :)

And please come by here regularly, now! Also, git yerselph actively onto facebook....all of us regular Psillies are on there, and much fun and hilarity ensues between us all......

Still working part-time after-hrs at sandisk. Got a (hefty almost %-wise) raise last wk but of course still underpaid compared to before. And no benefits as a part-time temporary contractor. Really never could've guessed i'd be a temp for 3+ yrs & counting.

I'm actually just now going to bed b4 dawn. Worked til 1am. I'd try working daytime if they'd all just promise to not use perfumes, colognes, fragrancey shampoos or cleansers.

Or git a SCAWBA unit. (AboveWater)

Goodeffins, a real Ptaughmus post and not just one of those quick poop-ins. First real one since I've been in this house - a milestone at least. Nice to get to 'know' you Ptaughmus :) You have been but a figment of my imagination - which had you at only about 25% :P

Our Kiwi, Shroomie is trying to keep her house in one piece :o

You haf no idear how hard it is running from wall to wall when you see 'em moving :blink: - whoops, there's anudder dat needs support :unsure: - it's calling 'help me':rolleyes:

I once had a puking Abby - didn't just sit quiet and comfortable but suddenly zzzzzoomed to the nearest, bestest carpet she could find to deposit her little gift :huh:..And she was a prolific gifter too! Have now decided she was celiac. Poor kitteh.

I KNOW. And because I found this bit of spelling psilliness very funny, I kept adding to the name as I wrote so that it became something like Ptaoughhmmusse, and in my typically English-language-OCD fashion, insisted that I spelled it the same way each time I typed it. It has become quite laboUr-intensive. :rolleyes:

Hey it's PinchPunch no backsies time!

So the UK doing Olys this yr but in such a financial crunch they raised Univ tuition 300% last yr? I could barely believe that when I read it & I'm not sure now, really. Calif students demonstrate/protest when it's an 8% increase.

Uh-oh can't get too political. But I *have* been awfully amused by the primary circus.

Only reason I joined was to look at pictures of Jess's kitchen remodel. I've got a fake name with a fake birthday so nobody can find me unless I give them the info. I'm never on . . . yet. I suppose I'll use it to keep an eye on the kids once they get the bug to start using it.

Mostly just the impending part. Too many nuts on the roads.....and I have developed a fear of psycho drivers. :ph34r: Also not a fan of crowds. Fees for parking are insane.

Normal everyday folk won't be able to buy the (FB)stock. The said first offerings are going to the houses "members of status". So for me to get a chance to buy it, I would make the 'bigwigs" even more money. i've got to hit on a penny stock somethin. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Ah Robotics Season! The time of year when I send an email and get responses from parents with 8 questions back. 4 of the questions are answered in the email I just sent. 2 are answered in the previous info sent. 2 are WTF? questiions like can they bring a curling iron? Do they have to eat at McDonalds?

Ant the ever popular- You are leaving at 3:30? My kid can't be there until 4:30. Can you change the time?

:o

kareng Grand Master

Now I have a parent that has told a bunch of the other parents that there is no cost to them for the kids to travel with the team. If a random someone decides the kids don't have to buy thier own food, does that make it so?

I'm going to hide in a hole, now. :ph34r:

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. 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:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.
