Wish I had a nickle for every time Patteigh posted :rolleyes:

Me too :P

<_< My son said that, at about the time of the momentous post, he had a welcome phluid event.

Maybe after a certain point, the phlipover causes a helpful phluid event instead of a destructive one?

I'm loving that Pads' paramount phlipover became an Event.

Not that we have the authority, but if jerseyangel were promoted to jerseysaint it'd've been a real St. Paddeigh's Day, complete w/ sanctioned, neigh, encouraged synchronized imbibements. :lol::wub:;)

:lol: :lol: :lol: Pataughmn!!

When r the commemorative coins due out from Franklin Mint? :)

March. :rolleyes:

Patteigh, I think that's YOU on our pennies!!

I'm the Loon B)

Makes cents to me! :P

<snoooooooort>

Last year we had the world's most annoying sumbitc* of a snow storm two days before Halloween.

We did too, followed by the mildest winter in years.

Not when it takes your power out for eight days in the freezing cold! Probly not as much of a problem in CO though is it?

I miss wooden stoves though :(

Though CO doesn't deal with it as well as MT does. We'd get two feet over night and still had to go to school and the buses still ran. None of this 3 inch crud.

Two feet overnight? Pah, a mere dusting.... . . ...

There were times when it was really difficult to open the front door to let the poodle out. Not to mention the poor car would be buried.

Clocks go back in the UK this weekend. So while some people look forward to an extra hour in bed Sunday morning, I get 2 kids who will be up at @5am instead of 6am for at least a couple of weeks

:(

Aside from that I love this time of year. 10 degrees and sunny here :)

The shift is disruptive--no question.

The problem is that mid-day (noon) is not the middle of the day for most people, just as midnight is not the halfway point in their sleep time.

There is one place that has it right, IMO. Saskatchewan does not observe DST. Instead, they observe Central Standard Time year-round. But geographically, they belong in the Mountain zone. So, in effect, they observe Mountain Daylight Time 12 months a year. See the province just to the west on the time zone map:

There are a couple places in America that do not observe it either.

Yes, Arizona (except for the Navajo reservation) and parts of Indiana. But they ignore it. Saskatchewan, by using a time zone east of where they actually are, effectively observe it year-round. Solar noon occurs around 1:00 every day of the year. The middle of my waking day is closer to 1:00 than it is to 12:00. It is actually much later than 1:00.

      @Hmart, The reason why your intestinal damage was so severe, yet your tTg IgA was so minimal can be due to cutting back on gluten (and food in general) due to worsening symptoms. The tTg IgA antibodies are made in the intestines. While three grams of gluten per day for several weeks are enough to cause gastrointestinal symptoms, ten grams of gluten...

      Other diseases, medical conditions, medications and even (for some people) some non-gluten foods can cause villous atrophy. There is also something called refractory celiac disease but it is pretty uncommon.

      knitty kitty asks a very relevant question. So many people make the mistake of experimenting with the gluten free diet or even a reduced gluten diet soon before getting formally tested.

Is supplementation for celiacs always necessary even though you remain gluten-free and you’re healing as shown on endoscopy? I also take D3, mag glycinate, and try to get calcium through diet. I am trying to bump up my energy level because I don’t sleep very well and feel fatigued quite often. I’m now hopeful that adding the Benfotiamine and B-complex will help. I really appreciate your explanation and advice! Thanks again Knitty Kitty!

      @Hmart, The reason why your intestinal damage was so severe, yet your tTg IgA was so minimal can be due to cutting back on gluten (and food in general) due to worsening symptoms.  The tTg IgA antibodies are made in the intestines.  While three grams of gluten per day for several weeks are enough to cause gastrointestinal symptoms, ten grams of gluten per day for for several weeks are required to provoke sufficient antibody production so that the antibodies move out of the intestines and into the blood stream where they can be measured in blood tests.  Since you reduced your gluten consumption before testing, the antibody production went down and did not leave the intestines, hence lower than expected tTg IgA.   Still having abdominal pain and other symptoms this far out is indicative of nutritional deficiencies.  With such a severely damaged small intestine, you are not absorbing sufficient nutrients, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1, so your body us burning stored fat and even breaking down muscle to fuel your body.   Yes, it is a very good idea to supplement with vitamins and minerals during healing.  The eight essential B vitamins are water soluble and easily lost with diarrhea.  The B vitamins all work together interconnectedly, and should be supplemented together.  Taking vitamin supplements provides your body with greater opportunity to absorb them.  Thiamine and the other B vitamins cannot be stored for long, so they must be replenished every day.  Thiamine tends to become depleted first which leads to Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a condition that doctors frequently fail to recognize.  Symptoms of Gastrointestinal Beriberi are abdominal pain and nausea, but neuropathy can also occur, as well as body and joint pain, headaches and more.  Heart rhythm disruptions including tachycardia are classic symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  Heart attack patients are routinely administered thiamine now.   Blood tests for vitamins are notoriously inaccurate.  You can have "normal" blood levels, while tissues and organs are depleted.  Such is the case with Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a thiamine deficiency in the digestive tract.  Eating a diet high in carbohydrates, like rice, starches, and sugar, can further deplete thiamine.  The more carbohydrates one eats, the more thiamine is required per calorie to turn carbs into energy.  Burning stored fats require less thiamine, so in times of thiamine shortage, the body burns fat and muscles instead.  Muscle wasting is a classic symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  A high carbohydrate diet may also promote SIBO and/or Candida infection which can also add to symptoms.  Thiamine is required to keep SIBO and Candida in check.   Thiamine works with Pyridoxine B 6, so if Thiamine is low and can't interact with Pyridoxine, the unused B 6 accumulates and shows up as high.   Look into the Autoimmune Protocol diet.  Dr. Sarah Ballantyne is a Celiac herself.  Her book "The Paleo Approach" has been most helpful to me.  Following the AIP diet made a huge improvement in my symptoms.  Between the AIP diet and correcting nutritional deficiencies, I felt much better after a long struggle with not feeling well.   Do talk to your doctor about Gastrointestinal Beriberi.  Share the article linked below. Thiamine, gastrointestinal beriberi and acetylcholine signaling https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12014454/ Keep us posted on your progress!
