What do you teach, Vynscegnt?

I teach two adult in depth Bible studies. In my my Friday class I am teaching through Revelation, in my Sunday class I am teaching through 1 Corinthians.

So, I know that I am not the only one here that suffers from chronic pain. Question for you all, is it at ALL related to weather? I have heard it said that many times over, but I have not noticed a correlation. For example, today is a bad day for me (and someone else I know), but the pressure is 29.92 and rising. Dead normal. So just wondering if there really is any correlation at all.

My pain does not correlate to the weather at all.

What specifically do they predict?

Jestgar Rising Star

It's the change in pressure that gets to me. If it were rising or falling quickly, well, not just quickly, if it's been at one level for a while, then changes, that's when it happens.

My knee (sometimes both but normally the left one) dispise weather changes with a passion.

My foot/toe which I broke when I was 16 always gives me trouble when we head into cold/dry weather . . . but not coming out of it.

Ok, I'm at Shop Rite. The Kraft Shredded Mozzerella does list potato starch on the label.

I wonder if the difference has to do with economics. Cellulose comes from the forestry business, which is big in parts of Canada. Not so many potatoes grown here. :wacko:

My mother's shoulder pain reacted to weather changes. She would never arm wrestle when a big storm was coming. :)

jerseyangel Proficient

Hee! Arm wrestle:)

My problem area is primarily my knees, and they seem to be worse in the morning. My fingers run a close second these days:( Guess I'm getting old.

Darn210 Enthusiast

Mornings bring stiff backs . . . and maybe stiff fingers.

How's about thumb wrestling? . . . I'm pretty good if I say so myself . . . can still beat my 13 year old (as long as it's not first thing in the morning)

My knees and formerly broken meditarcles (sp) are great barometers.

My muscles/joints can track humidity changes better than the weather channel.

This is NEXT Saturday, Leisugh? Count me in -- oysters are one of my favorite treats....very rarely have them... I think I've only had them in restaurants. Don't believe I've ever been to a roast .. . ....it's about time!

VydorScope Proficient

I would not eat an oyster. With my luck I would choke to death on a priceless pearl.

jerseyangel Proficient

I tried an oyster once, felt like an eyeball in my mouth.

jerseyangel Proficient

What's everybody doing up so early? lol.

      I agree there I've tryed this myself to prove I can't eat gluten or lactose and it sets me back for about a month till I have to go back to being very strict to settle again 
    • trents
      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.
    • trents
      @par18, no, Scott's use of the term "false negative" is intentional and appropriate. The "total IGA" test is not a test used to diagnose celiac disease per se. The IGA immune spectrum response encompasses more than just celiac disease. So, "total IGA" refers to the whole pie, not just the celiac response part of it. But if the whole pie is deficient, the spectrum of components making it up will likely be also, including the celiac disease response spectrum. In other words, IGA deficiency may produce a tTG-IGA score that is negative that might have been positive had there not been IGA deficiency. So, the tTG-IGA negative score may be "false", i.e, inaccurate, aka, not to be trusted.

      This may be the problem. Every time you eat gluten it is like giving a booster shot to your immune system, telling it to react and produce antibodies again.

      Scott, I am mostly asymptomatic. I was diagnosed based on high antibodies, low ferritin (3) and low vitamin D (10). I wasn't able to get in for the biopsy until 3 months after the blood test came back. I was supposed to keep eating gluten during this time. Well why would I continue doing something that I know to be harmful for 3 more months to just get this test? So I did quit gluten and had the biopsy. It was negative for celiacs. I continued gluten free with iron supps and my ferritin came back up to a reasonable, but not great level of around 30-35.  Could there be something else going on? Is there any reason why my antibodies would be high (>80) with a negative biopsy? could me intestines have healed that quickly (3 months)?  I'm having a hard time staying gluten free because I am asymptomatic and i'm wondering about that biopsy. I do have the celiacs gene, and all of the antibody tests have always come back high. I recently had them tested again. Still very high. I am gluten free mostly, but not totally. I will occasionally eat something with gluten, but try to keep to a minimum. It's really hard when the immediate consequences are nil.  with high antibodies, the gene, but a negative biopsy (after 3 months strict gluten-free), do i really have celiacs? please say no. lol. i think i know the answer.  Asa
