So the fair I was at this weekend had a forge right across the way from the

booth I was working in, and every morning and evening they would set off

their cannon (unloaded). It is INCREDIBLY loud. So last night at around 1am,

I dreamed it was about to go off, and woke up, sat bolt upright in bed with my

fingers in my ears. Yeah. I have GREAT dreams.

Well, at least it was only twice a day :unsure: I had a booth at a Christmas Faire one year where the neighboring booth played a very tinny recording of "Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock" over and over, ALL DAY, for two days!!! I thought I would go mad and that damned thing rang through my head right up to Christmas. Made me feel very un-Christmassy!!

People in New England are insane. It's official. How many people are

going to buy bread, milk, and eggs? What are you going to do when

the power goes out? Make French toast? Numbskulls.....

Only thing I don't like about the new format is it's too big from left to right,

you have to scroll back and forth to read. I think it would be better if the

default made the post boxes narrower. Everything else I'll get used to. :rolleyes:

All I want to do is let everyone I'm hoping they're safe & dry and I miss the old "reply" button so ... stay safe & dry. Will try to figure this out again tomorrw when DH isn't waiting to watch a movie with me (The Stand - Part 3)

Love, Hugs, & Positive Energy!!!

The "Reply" button at the bottom of each post is now labeled "Quote." It will prime the reply window.

The multiquote function has changed a bit. When at least one post is tagged as "MultiQuote" there will be a button in the lower right area of the screen to "Reply to x quoted post(s)." Click it to launch the reply window. Click "Clear" to the right to reset. Like before, you can MultiQuote tag a post in one topic, and post the reply in another.

The upgrade reset many notification settings. Look up in the right hand corner--you may have to reactivate the "follow" function. I did on the thread I follow. Then, go to your settings, check notification settings, and you may need to check email to reactivate it.

It would be a good idea for everyone to review your notification settings to make sure that they are still what you want them to be.

Yep, checked them. They were all good. I also completely unfollowed and refollowed. Still no emails.

Hmmmm . . . running out of ideas here. I gave it a try and it worked for me. Have you tried following any of the other threads? The Frankenstorm one gets a lot of action so you should be able to tell fairly quickly. Did you check your spam folder? I don't see how, but a computer might interpret this vital thread as . . . <gasp> . . . spam.

Why do you need notification anyway?? . . . Aren't you on 24/7 like the rest of us? . . . as your queen, I demand that kind of committment, you know.

Yes, you can claim it as an expense . . . and by the way, you are waaaaaay behind and owe me . . . on meeeeeelllllion dollars!! <there's gotta be some kinda perk to this job>

Hiya Peepsters--I think we're as set as we'll ever be if/when the electricity goes out. Stocked up on water, other non-perishables, and the all important Popcorn Indiania Cinnamon Sugar Popcorn and Gluten Free Bakehouse stuff. B)

You wouldn't believe the people in the grocery store buying gallons of milk and eggs. Unless they have a generator (impossible to find, natch), how in the Sam Hill are they gonna keep that stuff? It was so phunny though--my shopping cart, normally full of produce, organic dairy, meats, etc was instead loaded with packaged, canned, bottled and snacky things. :lol:

HAPPY BELATED BIRFDAY, EM!!!!!!!!

:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

Hope it was phab!

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after eating them. If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.

      Under the circumstances, your decision to have the testing done on day 14 sounds very reasonable. But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      After the birth of my daughter nearly 6 years ago, my stools changed. They became thin if they happened to be solid (which was rare) but most of the time it was Bristol #6 (very loose and 6-8x a day). I was on various medications and put it down to that. A few years later I went on this strict "fruit and meat" diet where I just ate meat, fruit, and squash...

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in hospitals or institutional care and I'm guessing your physician would be willing to grant you a diagnosis of gluten sensitivity (NCGS) even if your celiac testing comes up negative. Also, you need to be aware that oats (even gluten free oats) is a common cross reactor in the celiac community. Oat protein (avenin) is similar to gluten. You might want to look at some other gluten free hot  breakfast cereal alternatives.

      After the birth of my daughter nearly 6 years ago, my stools changed. They became thin if they happened to be solid (which was rare) but most of the time it was Bristol #6 (very loose and 6-8x a day). I was on various medications and put it down to that. A few years later I went on this strict "fruit and meat" diet where I just ate meat, fruit, and squash vegetables. I noticed my stools were suddenly formed, if a bit narrow. I knew then that the diarrhea was probably food related not medication related. I tried following the fodmap diet but honestly it was just too complicated, I just lived with pooping 8x a day and wondering how I'd ever get and keep a job once my children were in school.  This past December I got my yearly bloodwork and my triglycerides were high. I looked into Dr. William Davis (wheat belly author) and he recommended going off wheat and other grains. This is the first time in my life I was reading labels to make sure there was no wheat. Within 2 weeks, not only were my stools formed and firm but I was only pooping twice a day, beautiful formed Bristol #4.  Dr. Davis allows some legumes, so I went ahead and added red lentils and beans. Nervous that the diarrhea would come back if I had IBS-D. Not only did it not come back, it just made my stools even bigger and beautiful. Still formed just with a lot more width and bulk. I've also been eating a lot of plant food like tofu, mushrooms, bell peppers, hummus etc which I thought was the cause of my diarrhea before and still, my stools are formed. In January I ran a genetics test because I knew you had to have the genes for celiac. The report came back with  DQ 2.2 plus other markers that I guess are necessary in order for it to be possible to have celiac. Apparently DQ 2.2 is the "rarer" kind but based on my report it's genetically possible for me to have celiac.  I know the next step is to bring gluten back so I can get testing but I am just not wanting to do that. After suffering with diarrhea for years I can't bring myself to do it right now. So that is where I am!
