Forgive me ignorance M....do you mean Dermatitis Herpetiformis?? <sp?>

I thought that was blisters??? :unsure: ....no blisters on Tel

Nik, my DH doesn't always form into blisters. I get it rarely now, but when I do it's raised red splotches that hurt (not much itching). Sometines a sore that appears alone will blister after a day or two, but not always. They look like the picture of the breakout on the person's back about halfway down this article (though thankfully, never this bad):

I remember someone saying in a DH thread that the condition can vary somewhat and present a little differently from celiac to celiac.

Food fer thought!

Actually, it would be good if Tel's rash WAS DH........then you'd know what it was! :)

Amanda--do you mean a veggie garden or flowers?

In general, you should wait until after the last frost for flowers, shrubs and things like that. I'm not too familiar with veggie gardens. I used to have one years ago....there are a couple things I think you can plant early, but I used to have tomatoes, peppers, zucchini, and lettuce--and those I planted in probably mid-late May.

You can get the ground ready earlier, though--if you need to till. That way you'll be all set to go when it gets warm enough.

I'm sure other green-thumbed sillies will be of more help :D

I have tried 5 times to reply and everytime someone comes to my desk and interrupts me..... can't they see I am busy!!!

I am planting tomatoes, sugar snap peas, cucumbers, maybe lettuce but in the front of the house I am planting flowers (not sure what) and by the fence and back porch some sunflowers. I am excited!!!!

My av is simply in need of a updating.

My plans are coming together for the FL trip for my mom. We are heading there for mothers day weekend. I am glad I held off on plane tickets. Now Southwest has one way tickets for $55. Originally it was 69 which was still cheap. I can't way. We are going to take her for a ride to the Keys. :):)

How exciting! Yes, there are some very good deals on plane tickets especially if you can get them well ahead of time.

.........so there's this 4th grade boy who always notices when I wear my boots..........seems to be obsessed with my boots.

Yesterday he informed me that I hadn't worn my boots in 3 days :rolleyes:

He often calls me Goldilocks...I am not blonde....but I think it's mainly because another assistant pulling cafeteria duty with me has the last name of Bear....so she's Mama Bear

..today he called me Curly! :huh:

pretty lame, but that's all I got.........

my life is boring :(

I'm here. That is, I'm back...

I once was lost but now am found. :blink:

We have been having trouble for a while with our internet connection at home. After multiple calls to 1-800-Call-India, I got to talk to somebody on the same continent that I am on yesterday, and it was determined that perhaps we really did have a problem. A technician was scheduled to come out and look at the circuit from our end.

Good news, part one. The appointment was for between 5 and 9 pm. He called at 6:15 to confirm, and arrived about ten minutes later.

He was on site for about two hours, doing all sorts of different tests. We are a good distance from the telephone company central office, near the limits of DSL technology. The wiring in our neighboUrhood is over thirty years old (as is the wiring in the house). Problems happen.

Good news, part two. Once it was established that the problem was theirs, the tech added some balancing equipment to our end of the circuit, and some changes were made to their end.

I'm back. :) :)

1-800 call india---sounds like Verizon's tech support! Hi Peter!!!! Long time!!!

Hi Ptaum- nice to see you!

Hi all sillies! Its warm this morning!!! Last night I made PB fudge-- first time ever making something like that. It actually turned out as well. I was happy!

Mornin', Gang!

Gross me oot the door. .. .... :o

So, did you finish him off, Jess? This would be a truly horrid situation for me. Being presented with a dead rat is bad, but I would just need to wrap it up in newspaper (about a million pieces) and throw it into the garbage bag. Now, an alive one.....

I couldn't just do that. I would have to kill it...... :unsure: .... . ...or leave it alone to die on its own. . . .....or keep trying to entice the cat to finish the job. . ... :unsure: . . . ..

Not good. My cats seem to know that I would have great trouble with a gravely wounded creature. Anything they have brought me has always been dead. Totally. Not twitching, even . . . ...

After multiple calls to 1-800-Call-India,

Glad you're back, POeter! Was this our lovely Bell Canada cartel?

:ph34r: I cowered in the middle of my bed yelling EEWWWW GET HIM!

He was pretty near the end already...

If the critter looks like a fresh toy, I try to liberate it. If it looks like they've been playing together for a while, I just stay out of it. I figure the worst has already transpired for the victim, and it's kinder to let the cat bring about the end, rather than leaving the prey to die slowly out in the cold. (Yes, I have thought through this)

      Alcohol

      By Suze046 · Posted

      Hey! I’m recently gluten free and yes I really struggle with alcohol now. I haven’t really drank in 2 months as it just made me feel awful the next day in terms of stomach ache mainly. I’ve had a couple of glasses of white wine here and there (mainly low sulphate) but every time it gives me a gut ache. I think it’s because but guy is so damaged from my journey to discovering my gluten intolerance and hopefully this will improve but honestly I’m just not bothered about having a drink now. I can’t even touch Prosecco or champagne I think the bubbles really upset me!

      Work friends & food

      I just wanted to share my support for you. Rant away. We all know that, and have experiences like that at some point. I am sorry for that very unpleasant, and emotionally isolating reminder of your medical condition. Which always is exacerbated by the hunger. I will admit many of my family friends, and coworkers found it easier to exclude me than to accommodate me. I also have to be very strict with cross contamination so in hindsight they did me a favor.  The sting however can often still be unearthed when I read experiences like yours.  I am sorry you had that occur. I hope you, and the coworkers can find the easy more accommodating experiences again after this unfortunate incident. Best wishes.

      Diagnosed gluten allergy but not Celiac

      By Awol cast iron stomach · Posted

      "...hemorrhoids, constipation and diarrhea" . Heard of indeed. Experienced too. In hindsight, I can remember from age 2 having, and trying to convey my issues. I went 38 years misdiagnosed. So yes one can have these issues. I did have to go back on gluten for a gluten challenge. I failed that challenge and 6 days in they give me permission to stop, and I proceed with my scopes as scheduled. Post those 6 days I had gained 13 intolerances. I had to remove many foods, and reintroduce them back in. Nine years later I have two that remain gluten, and corn. I found it helpful to follow a whole foods diet. I also found autoimmune (AIP) protocol diet/recipes, and Paleo diet/recipes helpful. I still enjoy many of those homemade version recipes. I still continue to make my own salad dressings even if I can find a gluten-free store bought version. Fresh taste best to this palate now.  I did give up many grains I was off many and reverted to coconut flour and almond flour as work arounds .  I still remember the first time my gut experienced the reintroduction of quinoa. It wasn't sure if it wanted to flare or not. In 30 minutes it reported back ok this will pass. Many foods were removed post gluten challenge for me for 2 years and 4 months. At the 2 year 4 month mark is when my body said ok let's eat again, but don't ever feed me gluten again! I wish you the best.

      if you have already learned that Gluten is the cause of your symptoms, of course there is no need to add it back into your diet— your decision could save you a lot of needless suffering. One thing to consider is that if you do have celiac disease, your first- degree relatives may also need to get screened for it, because, like diabetes the disease is genetic, although many of its triggers seem to be environmental factors. You may want to consider getting a genetic test for celiac disease, so you can at least warn your relatives if it turns out that you do carry a celiac gene.
