Tom wrote Home Despot, and I snorted, did anyone notice *snort* (DESPOT, not my snort)

SHROOMIE !!! how are you FEELING ?????

Was really worried about so many people after the big storm, kept meaning to check in, had log-in problems for quite a while and gave up. Is EVERYONE OKAY ???? :(

last time I was here, Geoss was riding sailing around on a boat with some pirate. Looked like fun ;)

Can we forget about that "coma" word for a while :rolleyes: ?? It's a place where strange things happen, where the mind goes nutz and creates its own stimulation (I wonder if that's why we dream?? - can't stand the boredom!) It's a place where spouses leave you to take up with your financial advisor, with you looking on; a place where spouse gambles away your retirement nest egg in the casino (again with you looking on but are powerless); where your housesitter emails you (complete with pictures) and tells you of another earthquake and your house is a total writeoff; and a place where the nursing staff boycotts you as a patient because you tried to prevent them from giving you another shot of Dilaudid so they could wheel you back into your cupboard for the night, but spouse calls our attorney who advised him that the San Francisco Examiner is just about to go to print and they love this stuff, so I become front page news and they lift the boycott. So life was not totally dull during that "c" word :lol:

As to feeling, I still have some, kinda soft and flabby feeling, no mussels in me butt for the 13-hour flight so was sitting on me bones :angry: - how quickly we fail......

Ghiannutt has been very undespot-like during her rain, err reign, in fact a very benign period has ensued since her crowning.

Methinks Jyess's pirate has become a bit of a landlubber, maybe looking for a secure mooring (or should that be docking??) :lol:

T'any rate, so good to have you back :):wub::):wub: (wasn't going to give you those before I knew you would be back :rolleyes: )

Something wrong, Em?? You look confused. :lol:

When my friend "K" was in a (medically induced) coma, she dreamed a certain doctor on the hospital staff was trying to murder her . . . and proceeded to be quite a difficult patient after she woke up as she was trying to run for her life.

Yea, she's a little stingy with those . . . it's not like you can just click a button and make them appear . . . :P

Don't forget, my spouse just gambled away our retirement nest egg -- I have to watch my pennies. :unsure:

Darn210 Enthusiast

So where are you guys going to live now that your house is condemned and hubby has squandered your money? I hope you've ditched that financial advisor of yours.

Darn210 Enthusiast

Off Topic . . . if there is such a thing . . . I like that particular colour of red of the report button, but for some reason, it makes me think of Campbell's Soup

      There is much helpful 'truth' posted on this forum. Truths about Celiac Disease are based on scientific research and people's experience. Celiac disease is inherited. There are 2 main Celiac 'genes' but they are variations of one gene called HLa - DQ What is inherited when a person inherits one or both of the DQ2 or the DQ8 is a predisposition to develop celiac disease after exposure to a environmental trigger. These 2 versions of the DQ gene are useful in diagnosing  celiac disease but there are about 25 other genes that are known to influence celiac disease so this food intolerance is a multigenic autoimmune disease. So with so many genes involved and each person inheriting a different array of these other genes one person's symptoms may be different than another's symptoms.  so many of these other genes.  I don't think that much research on these other genes as yet. So first I wrote something that seem to tie together celiac disease and migraines.  Then you posted that you had migraines and since you went gluten free they only come back when you are glutened. Then Scott showed an article that reported no connection between migraines and celiac disease, Then Trents wrote that it was possible that celiacs had more migraines  and some believed there was a causal effect. You are each telling the truth as you know it or experienced it.

      Another annoying thing about trying to figure this Celiac life out is reading all of the labels and considering every choice. I shop at Aldi every week and have been for years. I was just officially diagnosed Celiac a couple weeks ago this October after my endoscopy. I've been encouraged by my local Aldi in that they have a lot of gluten free products and clearly labeled foods. I usually buy Milagro corn tortillas because they are cheap and are certified. However, I bought a package of Aldi's Pueblo Lindo Yellow Corn Tortillas without looking too closely (I was assuming they were fine... assuming never gets us anywhere good lol) it doesn't list any wheat products and doesn't say it was processed in a facility with wheat. It has a label that it's lactose free (hello, what?? When has dairy ever been in a tortilla?) Just, ugh. If they can add that label then why can't they just say something is gluten free or not? I did eat some of the tortillas and didn't notice any symptoms but I'm just not sure if it's safe. So I'll probably have to let my family eat them and stick with Milagro. There is way too much uncertainty with this but I guess you just have to stick with the clearly labeled products? I am still learning!

      Thank you all for sharing your experiences! And I am very thankful for that Thanksgiving article, Scott! I will look into it more as I plan my little dinner to bring with on the Holiday I'm also glad a lot of research has been done for Celiac. There's still a lot to learn and discover. And everyone has different symptoms. For me, I get a bad headache right away after eating gluten. Reoccurring migraines and visual disturbances were actually what got my PCP to order a Celiac Panel. I'm glad he did! I feel like when the inflammation hits my body it targets my head, gut, and lower back. I'm still figuring things out but that's what I've noticed after eating gluten! I have been eating gluten-free for almost two months now and haven't had such severe symptoms. I ate a couple accidents along the way but I'm doing a lot better

      @Mari, did you read that second article that Scott linked? It is the most recently date one. "Researchers comparing rates of headaches, including migraines, among celiac patients and a healthy control group showed that celiac subjects experienced higher rates of headaches than control subjects, with the greatest rates of migraines found in celiac women.  Additionally, celiacs had higher rates of migraine than control subjects, especially in women. In fact, four out of five women with celiac disease suffered from migraines, and without aura nearly three-quarters of the time."
    • Mari
      As far as I know and I have made severalonline searches, celiac disease disease has not been recognized as a cause of migraines or any eye problems. What I wrote must have been confusing.
