Trick or Treaters coming around now. Happy Jersey Halloween everybody! :-)

Think I'll join ya in that glass of wine, Lisa. (think there's room for both of us in there ?)

Hee

Lisa Mentor

Yup, wine always makes everything better. And home alone for the moment...it's a lovely noise.

Car? Ah huh... :rolleyes: You just wanted to stay and hand out countless pieces of candy to adults who drag their children along. :huh:

:ph34r: BOO!

jerseyangel Proficient

Ah, solitude! Nice every so often ;)

Got some 'call of the wild' free samples (I hope they were meant to be free :ph34r: ) at the chicken food store. Kitties are thinking they're getting treats. :)

I was sitting on my doorstep, li'l suitcase in hand.....several bottles of wine in my backpack....waiting and waiting.....

Okay, we gotta raincheck.....next time I'll fly to Jersey and we'll drive from your house, Pattiegh. If your car acts up, well, I'm stranded at YOUR place. I'll have my backpack full of pinot.... B);)

jerseyangel Proficient

Sounds like a plan, Em!! :)

Whatever. You know she was lightening up the backpack by 'sampling' the wine.

Just voted! Line was long already. I showed up right about 6am as thier were opening and got out about 647am. Line was longer when I left then when I arrived.

Darn210 Enthusiast

The advantages of not working . . . I'm going to go mid-afternoon and avoid all those people trying to vote on their way to work, at lunch, or leaving a tad early to vote on their way home for work. I'm targeting 2:00 pm. Four years ago, there was still a pretty darn good line at that time.

I'll be glad when this is over . . . I'm sick of the ads and I'm sick of the phone calls.

Darn210 Enthusiast

Well, a raincheck it is . . . the wine will keep (if we can keep Em out of it) . . . but watchu gonna do with all them oysters, Lisa?

Got any Junior Mints left, Patti? How about a sugar hangover? (I always have one of those the day after Halloween :ph34r: )

VydorScope Proficient

I'll be glad when this is over . . . I'm sick of the ads and I'm sick of the phone calls.

Ditto on putting the ads behind us!!!!!

jerseyangel Proficient

I hear ya, Jan-it. I plan to go mid morning for the same reason.

Wonder of wonders, there are actually a few boxes of Junior Mints left. :P

We had lots of kids last night--I was curious to see what would happen with it being postponed but it actually felt like Halloween.

Yes--the ads, and phone calls pertaining to the elections. Will not miss those at all!!

jerseyangel Proficient

the wine will keep (if we can keep Em out of it) . . .

<snort> :wub:

Darn210 Enthusiast

Hubby went this morning . . . 7:30 ish . . . 45 minute wait but apparently everyone we know was there to keep him company. :rolleyes:

Jestgar Rising Star

      This article does not address migraines at all.  Yes, red wine and sulfites are often mentioned in connection with migraine triggers. With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably. So, I think most of my migraines are tied to fluctuations vascular tension and blood flow to the brain. That's why the sumatriptan works so well. It is a vaso constrictor.

      Excessive dietary tyrosine can cause problems.  Everything in moderation.   Sulfites can also trigger migraines. Sulfites are found in fermented, pickled and aged foods, like cheese.  Sulfites cause a high histamine release.  High histamine levels are found in migraine.  Following a low histamine diet like the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet, helps immensely.    Sulfites and other migraine trigger foods can cause changes in the gut microbiome.  These bad bacteria can increase the incidence of migraines, increasing histamine and inflammation leading to increased gut permeability (leaky gut), SIBO, and higher systemic inflammation.   A Ketogenic diet can reduce the incidence of migraine.  A Paleo diet like the AIP diet, that restricts carbohydrates (like from starchy vegetables) becomes a ketogenic diet.  This diet also changes the microbiome, eliminating the bad bacteria and SIBO that cause an increase in histamine, inflammation and migraine.  Fewer bad bacteria reduces inflammation, lowers migraine frequency, and improves leaky gut. Since I started following the low histamine ketogenic AIP paleo diet, I rarely get migraine.  Yes, I do eat carbs occasionally now, rice or potato, but still no migraines.  Feed your body right, feed your intestinal bacteria right, you'll feel better.  Good intestinal bacteria actually make your mental health better, too.  I had to decide to change my diet drastically in order to feel better all the time, not just to satisfy my taste buds.  I chose to eat so I would feel better all the time.  I do like dark chocolate (a migraine trigger), but now I can indulge occasionally without a migraine after.   Microbiota alterations are related to migraine food triggers and inflammatory markers in chronic migraine patients with medication overuse headache https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11546420/

      Then we would need to cut out all meat and fish as they are richer sources of tyrosine than nuts and cheese. Something else about certain tyrosine rich foods must be the actual culprit.

      I agree that KAN-101 looks promising, and hope the fast track is approved. From our article below: "KAN-101 shows promise as an immune tolerance therapy aiming to retrain the immune system, potentially allowing safe gluten exposure in the future, but more clinical data is needed to confirm long-term effects."

      Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self. What you're describing sounds less like a purely psychological body dysmorphia and more like a distinct neurological event, likely triggered by the immense physical stress and inflammation that uncontrolled celiac disease can inflict on the entire body, including the nervous system. It makes complete sense that the specific sensory input—the pressure points of your elbows on your knees—created a temporary, distorted body map in your brain, and the fact that it ceased once you adopted a gluten-free diet is a crucial detail. Your intuition to document this is absolutely right; it's not "crazy" but rather a significant anecdotal data point that underscores the mysterious and far-reaching ways gluten can affect individuals. Your theory about sensory triggers from the feet for others is also a thoughtful insight, and sharing this story could indeed be validating for others who have had similar, unexplainable sensory disturbances, helping them feel less alone in their journey.
