I did . . . :D:D:D

I've been watching since right before Christmas . . . and the sets kept going for more than I was willing to spend (which was still significantly cheaper than to buy it at Hallmark). . . but I finally got me one.

Open Original Shared Link is what I got except it didn't include the angel or pedestal on the far left . . . and it didn't include that price tag.

That's so beautiphul, Jan-it :D Congratulations!!

I have an angel identical to the one on the left, except mine is holding a grey kitty. :)

Oooo very nice - I fondly remember the set we had when I was growing up.

Holy Moly.....that's beautiful!!! I have several willow tree angels and I love them. I don't think I've seen the nativity set. (That was a pretty nasty price listed up there). I'm glad you got it and for (hopefully) a lot less money! :)

Well . . . I would have loved for it to have been even cheaper, but I'll be happy wif my price. I have been looking for YEARS for a nativity set that I like and that I know that I will still like in 20 years. We currently have a Fisher-Price plastic nativity set. Skeeter was concerned that I was going to get rid of it when I showed her what I was planning on buying . . . :lol: . . . I told her that I definitely would not get rid of it until she was absolutely done with it.

Speaking of Tinkyada . . . I'm not liking Whole Foods too much . . .

Bummer :angry:

I'm fortunate that our little local grocery store carries Tinkayda and a few other gluten-free things that I use.

Uh-oh .. ...did that scores of pages ago :o

Uhhhhhh the colonoscopy prep wasn't near as bad, in my case & in particular relative to pre-gluten-free, as advertised.

I woke for a few sec during colonoscopy to feel internal gnawing? Not ringing a bell?

No issues w/ endoscopy, save the barely scratchy throat.

Then, post-everything, was told of gobbler goblet cells.

I miss our neighnoUr's life-sized nativity set that I spoke of recently.....the one in the middle of his lawn, with a huge life-sized Santa, sleigh and reindeer swooping over top of the creche, Christmas lights strung across the top and along Baby Jesus's cradle, a huge blowup Homer Simpson standing sentinel alongside the gathering. . . . .

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      By cristiana · Posted

      I think going back to your GI isn't a bad idea - my visits to the GI did not stop following my diagnosis as I had annoying issues on and off for some time.  Thankfully he is a fantastic GI, with  a great sense of humour, so it wasn't a chore to see him again although I'd rather not have had to, obviously!  But I needed my mind to be put at rest as my symptoms didn't seem to go away overnight as I'd hoped they would.  Initially I recall he recommended I went Dairy Free for three weeks, and he told me it would take that time to see an effect.  At that time, even lactose free milk went straight through me, so it is important, I would say, to even avoid that during a Dairy Free trial. My ongoing symptoms were bloating which did respond a bit to that trial.   However, within about 18 months there was a return to a very sore stomach, plus various aches and pains.   It turned out some gluten was sneaking in with my iron supplement (I was buying Floradix instead of Floravital), but I also think the dishwasher, the oven and eating out were contributors, too. Before my numbers normalised (from memory, about eight years!) I had several follow up appointments and a few more tests, but things gradually did get better.  Having read many accounts on this forum over the years, I don't think it is uncommon for symptoms to get a bit worse before getting better, that was certainly the case with me.  Your gut is damaged so you may well have issues digesting other food in the short term. But do try to be as scrupulously gluten free as you can possibly be as a first step, and I'd definitely try a three week Dairy Free trial.   Your villi because they are damaged are not able to create the lactase required to digest dairy at this time so you may well see some improvement if you come off dairy for a while.  Perhaps keeping a food diary of what you eat, where you eat it, whilst a bit onerous to do, will help identify foods that are causing issues.  For a while, apart from oats, I found peas, lentils and soya products hugely aggravating.  Things should calm down.

      Thankfully those are normal. B12 was on the low end of the normal range when I first got diagnosed. When I last got it checked, it had come up a lot (455 last time checked).

      mystery gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/  I didn't notice any gluten ingredients in Kirkland Almond non-dairy beverage, however it does contain Locust Bean Gum. Some gums may cause IBS-type issues in some people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity:

      For the past few months, I've been taking several supplements (a multi-vitamin, an iron supplement, a vitamin C supplement, and a magnesium supplement), all of which state that they are gluten free on the label.
