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.

jerseyangel Proficient

My pain does not correlate to the weather at all.

My knees are my barometer to the pending forcast . :blink:

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 think, after reading this, that you areso traumatized by not being able yo understand what your medical advisors have been  what medical conditions are that you would like to find a group of people who also feel traumatized who would agree with you and also support you. You are on a crusade much as the way the US Cabinet  official, the Health Director of our nation is in trying to change what he considers outdated and incorrect health advisories. He does not have the education, background or experience to be in the position he occupies and is not making beneficial decisions. That man suffered a terrible trauma early in his life when his father was assonated. We see now how he developed and worked himself into a powerful position.  Unless you are willing to take some advice or  are willing to use a few of the known methods of starting on a path to better health then not many of us on this Celiac Forum will be able to join you in a continuing series of complaints about medical advisors.    I am almost 90 years old. I am strictly gluten free. I use 2 herbs to help me stay as clear minded as possible. You are not wrong in complaining about medical practitioners. You might be more effective with a clearer mind, less anger and a more comfortable life if you would just try some of the suggestions offered by our fellow celiac volunteers.

      Thus has got to STOP , medical bit believing us! I literally went through 31 years thinking it was just a food allergy as its downplayed by medical if THEY weren't the ones who diagnosed us! Im positive for HLA-DQ2 which is first celiac patient per Iran and Turkey. Here in the States especially in Cali its why do you feel that way? Why do you think your celiac? Your not eating gluten so its something else.Medical caused me depression. I thought I was safe with my former pcp for 25 years considering i thought everything I went through and going through will be available when I get fired again for health. Health not write-ups my health always come back when you're better.Im not and being tossed away at no fault to my own other than shitty genes.I was denied disability because person said he didn't know how to classify me! I said Im celiac, i have ibs, hernia, sciatica, high blood pressure, in constant pain have skin and eye issues and menopause intensified everything. With that my celiac nightmare began to reprove my disregarded disease to a bunch of clowns who think they are my careteam when they said I didn't have...I feel Im still breathing so I can fight this so no body else has to deal with this nightmare. Starting over with " new care team" and waisting more time on why I think I am when diagnosed in 1994 before food eliminated from my diet. P.s everything i went through I did write to medical board, so pretty sure I will continue to have a hard time.

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.
