Yea . . . I never understood that whole "once you get in the habit of exercising that it starts to feel good and you hate to miss it if heaven-forbid you're traveling or something" . . . I think that's a crock of . . . doo-doo.

Well, I hate to pin it all on one person, but when SuZee left, we lost a heck of a lot of wackl. It's her fault. I say we storm her house in Stepford and force her to return to us.

I guess Gnikkie's "Sven" can do the #5 like no other.

Here ya go, Patti . . . the beginning of Sven and Edna . . .

:lol::lol:Jack Yon Ripper, Crown Prince of Sillyville........

Well, we've never pursued the lineages of these fleeting reigns.... .. .I Daresay I do not know if Jack becomes Mini-Royalty. Who knows the Longstanding, Official Edicts?

Oracle Peter? How dost this work?

Meant to comment on this, Patti....how terrific! You must feel great about this. An Edna that's working!

I'm having more trouble lately than usual getting my exercise time in - - and it is SO vital as a type one....I still get out there, but it's been a tougher haul the last few weeks. Therefore, as the new monarch, I am decreeing a new word be used, as Edna has successfully supplanted Diet, for the word Exercise. This is also a thing of great heinosity for many.

Now, we should give it a masculine name, I feel, as Edna is feminine. What's a grand, hideous male name? Boris? Olaf? Mervin? <_<:lol:

"Wow, I'm proud of myself.. ..I've Olaffed four times this week".... :lol:

You are so freaking right. I have been forcing myself to exercise a few times a week now for 9 years... still waiting for that "feel good" doo-doo to kick in!

Well . . . obviously not YOU since you've got brake issues . . . I can drive (that way I don't have to sit in the middle in the back and as driver I get to pick the radio stations we listen to). . . but anyone East of me has to get themselves to my house.

No, No, it doesn't work like that. One has to abdicate :rolleyes: and then the next in line gets to take over. But I believe protocol allows you to abdicate IN FAVOR OF someone???

Is that like an anti-enema ?

Try subbing in "eating potato chips" in place of that nasty ex word and it all works out just fine.

Been doing some macros for a friend's business. Pleased to say that I exceeded my own expectations, but man am I pooped. Anybody need a donor for that transplant?

elye Community Regular

Hmm......poop transplants.....I wonder if one must have the same poop type as that which is donated. I wonder if my poop type is O positive?......

Actually, there is likely only one poop type.... . . .... ....PU.

:rolleyes:

:lol:

mushroom Proficient

You wouldn't want one from someone who had celiac -

it would probably get all constipated,

:unsure:

or else it would

      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.
