TOM! Keep meaning to ask about the Mayo appt, I know there was globs/gobs (or sumthin) but all this was posted during the two day post-a-thon and I didn't catch all of it. What's the status, heard anything??

Eh, he basically said he's checked everything a GI can check & there's nothing that could account for my symptoms.

:(

the stink - it's his little head :blink: smells like wee and cat food :huh: I dunno....his teef are just fine, and he's quite healthy.......he just.........stinks to me......and you know what happens to men things that stink in my life :ph34r:

OH stinketh kitt-eh!!!!!!

Un-neutered males DO stinketh, but oddly I LOVE the smell of Harry :blink:

<he's booked in for DE-peanutting next Tue>

But what a pain, it was so easy to use in my listings. how do you determine your shipping then Susie if you don't use the shipping calculator??

I know not of 'shipping calculator'??? :unsure:

...but then our postage would be the same if I sent a parcel 5 miles or OR to Scotland.

...sooo, I just make it up :lol: (I always go a tad higher than it would actually cost)

I go roughly by what similar items are charging or the Royal Mail weight guide.

Remember my slinky adventure? About a month ago I slinkied down the stairs. My swollen knee has not improved....but actually pheels worse. I saw a orthopedist today....now I need an MRI (with a dye injection, yow!). He's pretty sure that I have a torn meniscus (the cartilage pad between the knee bones) and possibly tendon damage. I'm pretty bummed about the whole thing :( . I do not want to do surgery and all of that jazz.....I have all I can deal with without this! Guess I should just not worry about it all 'till I have to.

Ice and rest. Yeah, sure, easy fer me to say. . .. . ..! :rolleyes:

And Ptaoughmghmn.......the biggest poopy-bummer of ALL........ :(

....like Homer's Odyssey? I am confoozled cause I saw the previews when the movie came out and it looked kind of like Deliverance or sumpthin :huh: .....not the time of Greek Gods and such

That is what makes it SOOOOOO brilliant, so creatively phunneeee......!!!

you silly :lol: It's not George singing.....Nik, have you never seen this movie? :o OMG - it's a re-telling of The Odyssey - - absolutely HEE-LARR-YEE-US - you have GOT to watch it wif all yer boys - - I own it and have seen it literally at least 12, 13 times - every single time I catch something new :lol: 'tis me all-time fave George Clooney movie :wub:

Yeah, it's not George singing! That's the original recording of that song, I think.

I LOVE that movie too!!! I had the music disc for a long time, loved singing along to so many of the songs....

You don't have that feature?? You can preset the weight and method of shipping and then where ever the buyer is the shipping calculator will supposedly calculate their specific cost according to what postal zone they are in or location in the world you ship to.

I would love to just make up my shipping charges :lol: ....but many buyers have been so nasty in the past (no offense to any Silly buyers) harrassing me through emails if the shipping was one cent over :rolleyes:

a check in sillies- no DSL yet--Verizon got an ear full from me today- those b***chs said not till Feb 3rd. No one told me that when I put the order in.....I am going crazy without my net!!!!!

So I am also fighting another sinus infection.....was to the Dr's this morning and now am on antibiotics...which when I went to go get them filled at Wegmans they were free....I guess they are giving certain antibiotics free until the end of March. not too shabby.

so we are getting our cable done now and then hopefully figure out the whole DSL thing...I know if I dont get it from Verizon I am going to Comcast....I need it for work!!!!!

UGh---can't wait for my mom to come on Friday, I am excited!!!!

bye sillies hope all remains well.

Em hope your dad is good!

Hi, Amanda! NO INTERNET.....dear gawd, this is what transpires in Hell....you arrive at the fiery gates, only to learn that there is no internet access........ever. . . ...

I'm sure that you will be so happy to have yer mom with you. Will she say that everything she sees in your new place is fan-f*ckin'-TAS-tic, as my mother certainly would?

Mom has already used this personal word twice at the hospital....once when Dad's first CT scan came back with nothing worrisome showing, and again when he was wheeled into his room from recovery, where we sat waiting. "Oh, there he is!" she yelled, jumping up and smiling at the orderlies. "He just looks FAN-F*CKING-TAS-TIC!!"

And really, he looked terrible. But the big deal for everyone, I am certain, was not that she described him so inaccurately, but that a li'l eighty year-old lady said such a word....and so comfortably, like it was part of her everyday lexicon. . . . . ..

:rolleyes:

M! The conference today was about kidney stones. Ya know that 24 hour urine thing? They KNOW if you've cheated! :ph34r:

OMG. . . . . . ....I'm trying to remember if I've ever attempted a cheat on the orange jug adventure. . .. . ...like.. . .. what, peeking a look at someone else's orange jug? Using a hidden calculator, or some type of funnel aid for urine delivery? Are there illegal tools for this test?

:huh:

Gyan-knit.......how's da code cumbingk?

Nikki......go kick some arse, girlfriend.......wish I could watch!

.......and bigtime bummers on banged up knee, no internet, no diagnosis, and crappy postage calculators. :angry:

Well.........we have had our living room and dining room gated off for years. Tinkerbell can enter, but not Zeus. Tink's food dish is there so Zeus has no access to it. The original reason for this was because there is a small round table with a table cloth that he insists must always be peed on......even when I buy a new cloth. Never pees in the house otherwise. Suddenly, Zeus has decided to climb the gate for the past two days, thus eating the cat food........and peeing!.......but evidently can't ...or won't......climb back out. So when we get home he is rather excited and seems quite proud of himself <_<

Those hair people need a little psilliness, methinks :rolleyes:

I'll send some warmth and sun rays your way! We will have temps in the 50s in the winter, but high 60s and 70s is just not normal and natural for these parts :lol:

And I haven't seen this movie you are all talking about, loved how Jess called it OBWAT!! What? It's the retelling of The Odyssey???....like Homer's Odyssey? I am confoozled cause I saw the previews when the movie came out and it looked kind of like Deliverance or sumpthin .....not the time of Greek Gods and such

It is the "modern" re-telling of the tale, and Em's, right, that's part of its charm. absolutely fan-pharking-tastic beyond belief :lol: I NEVER tire of it. Own the soundtrack, then a second one the same peeps made called Down From the Mountain (wonderful - live concert)........then several other cuts........annnnnnnnnndddddddd this led me into several other things.......all songs are memorized/internalized and harmony is sung in the car and home. I know them word-for-word, every note, all of it. Slightly obsessed with me bluegrass and American Roots Music and the like. :ph34r:

BTW Jools - on ebay, I just use flat-rate shipping for all. Win some, lose some, but I"ve never had a complaint......I charge just slightly over, or use a flat-rate box, quite good for things that are especially heavy.

Psuesszy....have you checked Kittehs EARS? Ear mites have a powerful shtink, and can cause some pserious distress if not treated. Just a thought.

:o Kitty stink is getting worse and worse, and it is ABSOLUTELY not normal, peeple. WE are having an overdue trip to the vet tomorrow. Poor wee thing, alas, this will increase his chances of me falling in love with him, if his stench goes away.......sumfin' ain't right, I am telling you.......really bad smell :EWWWFACE: :( and, he did NOT stink like this when I first got him! So - could it be ear mites? He doesn't show any of the typical behavior of ear problems.......

OH stinketh kitt-eh!!!!!!

Un-neutered males DO stinketh, but oddly I LOVE the smell of Harry

<he's booked in for DE-peanutting next Tue>

Oh, is Harry yours then? :wub: FOUR KITTEHS!!!!!!!!! Has he no owner, or did you all just decide to STEAL him outright? :lol:

nik - yer boiler!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :angry:

      As Scott said, in order for celiac disease testing to be valid, you need to be eating generous amounts of gluten on a regular basis for weeks or months before the blood draw.
    • Scott Adams
      Based on what you've described, it is absolutely crucial that you pursue further medical exams for Celiac Disease and related conditions with a gastroenterologist. Your symptoms—especially the worsening fatigue, loss of muscle mass, neurological symptoms like migraines, and palpitations, coupled with being underweight—are significant red flags that extend beyond typical IBS. The negative home test is not reliable, particularly given your concern about sample contamination and the fact that you were likely not consuming sufficient gluten at the time for the test to be accurate, which is a common issue. While probiotics like Bifidobacterium Infantis can support gut health, they cannot resolve an autoimmune response to gluten or heal intestinal damage caused by Celiac Disease. Your declining blood test results, even if still "in range," further indicate a trend that needs a doctor's investigation. Please do not hesitate to seek a specialist; a formal diagnosis is the first step toward getting the correct treatment, allowing your body to heal, and finally addressing your weight and overall health concerns. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.    
    • Scott Adams
      I would only add that cross contamination with wheat may still be a possibility, so it's still best to seek out buckwheat that is labeled "gluten-free."

      Hello, I've been diagnosed with IBS since I was little. I’ve visited many doctors because my intestines have always been very reactive to food. I have chronic swelling, and I struggle to gain weight. This year has been worse than others: I started noticing fatigue, loss of muscle mass, and many digestive problems, especially after consuming products with gluten. My doctor suggested that this might be due to some imbalance of gut bacteria, so I started taking Bifidobacterium Infantis supplements. However, my symptoms have been getting worse every day. I experience nausea, frequent abdominal pain, migraines, and palpitations after eating. I had these symptoms before, but now they are more intense. I thought I might have Non-celiac gluten sensitivity or Celiac Disease, so I took a home test for Celiac, and it came out negative (though there may have been an error—I was nervous and accidentally contaminated the sample with air bubbles). Based on your experiences, should I pursue further medical exams for Celiac? I’m worried about being underweight and about my blood test results, which, even if still within normal ranges, have been declining each year.
    • itsdunerie
      Dang......did it again and yeah I should admit I am 63 with clumsy phone thumbs. I started feeling better quickly and a doctor a year later said I had to eat  poison (gluten) every day for a month so he could formally diagnose me and NO FREAKING WAY. I couldn't then and can't imagine putting my body through that crap (no pun intended) on purpose ever again.  Why ingest poison for a month to have some doctor say Hey, All you Have To Do Is Never Eat poison Again..
