Geezlouise everybody......wtf????? There must be some sort of cosmic chaos in psillyville.....make it go away :( .

Have not done more than quick drive-bys to keep caught up. Psuessy....thanks for the message. What a horrifying time for Leezarrr! Hope and prayers go with all of them! Manda....how lucky your dad peeked in when he did! Your uncle's in my prayers too. It's sadly amazing at how much "professional care" will miss (not notice, not think important?). I used to clean houses on the side for many years....most of them older people. I have seen so much more than I wanted to in the lack of care in the medical profession. Makes you wonder sometimes......

I used to call my refridgerator *bitsch-hhhhh*....does that qualify for a nickname? I have named cars (but I guess that's not so unusual), hand tools, my tiller (harvey...don't ask me why, I dunno).

Wanted to say more.....but I'm having serious brain hiccups this am! Need to get my arse off to work, and I seriously don't want to go! Think I'm a bit down about this gloomy, cold/damp weather.....I WANNA GO PLAY OUTSIDE IN SUNNY-WARM! I think I'd even settle for rainy-warm.....any kind of warm....

"Till later phokes......keep on the PsillyPside!

Morning Sillies :wub:

Beautiful day on tap for my neck of the woods, in the 70s. We have had such a mild winter, it's been more like spring.

Hi Tom *waving wildly* , haven't talked to you in a loooong time. Good to see a post from you. Hope you've been doing ok :)

Amanda, so sorry to hear about your Uncle. I will keep him in my htoughts.

Have a good time in Toronto Em. (I wasn't sure if it is for Sophie's tourney or not, if so GO WILDCATS)

What is all this about naming freezers??

Good luck. Stay alive no matter what occurs.

courgette? what in hell? and she thinks zucchini sounds exotic :blink: I have never heard of a courgette in my life....

amanda!!!!!! my gawd :( such stress........your poor uncle! So glad your parents are there to look in on him daily.....

So much going on in the 'ville this week - - lots of prayers coming from me, this I know. I have a deal with God.....just resumed it....I ask him to wake me up before the alarm clock goes off if he wants me to pray.......I don't have to set my alarm most mornings and, don't really usually naturally wake up until 8, roll into work at 9:30 or so.....

this morning, alarm was set for 7, I awoke at exactly 5 minutes 'til :) went straight to me knees with petitions for friends and loved ones, including all my sills.

somehow, though, I was a screaming beeoch by afternoon's end, a 9-hour day in which I was required to write someone's RESUME :angry: worst and most hated task ever....and they gave it to me at 4 in the afternoon........my boss KNEW I could go nuts - he tried to run over and hug me at one point and....I ran screaming out the front door of the building, and into the warehouse to get more chocolate........such civility and professionalism there :lol:

Where did Em go? Toronto? why? how did I miss or forget that?

I especially like Jackson Pollocks for balls, it just classes it up a bit

:lol: oh yes, classes it right up!

      gluten-free stool softener needed for after surgery

      In general with pharmaceutical products cross-contamination is a much lower risk.

      Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      Just so you'll know, once you have been gluten-free for any length of time, it will invalidate testing for celiac disease.

      Yes. I have not been tested for celiac. It took forever to get diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. lol. I have an appointment with my regular GP later this month and will convey my findings on improved symptoms and see what his thoughts are. Thank you.

      Refractory celiac disease

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Grahamsnaturalworld, It's never too late.   Have you been checked for Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth?  SIBO can cause ongoing symptoms.  Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) and Histamine Intolerance (HIT) can also be the cause of ongoing symptoms.  The AIP diet can help with these by starving out SIBO bacteria and calming the immune system. Do you include dairy in your diet?  Casein in dairy can cause an autoimmune response the same as to gluten.  Have you been checked for lactose intolerance?  Some people lose the ability to produce the enzyme, lactase, needed to digest lactose, the sugar in dairy because the villi where the lactase enzyme is made are damaged.  AIP diet excludes dairy. Do you include grains in your diet?  Gluten free alternative grains and ancient grains can be inflammatory and cause symptoms.  Some people with Celiac react to corn and oats.  The AIP diet excludes all grains.  Lectins in grains can be inflammatory and cause symptoms. Do you eat nightshades (tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, and eggplant).  This family of plants produce glycoalkaloids, chemicals that promote Leaky Gut Syndrome.  The AIP diet excludes nightshades.   Are you on any medications?  Some medications can cause gastrointestinal symptoms.  Do you take any supplements?  Some herbal teas and supplements can cause digestive symptoms.  Medications for diabetes, antidepressants, and other pharmaceuticals can cause digestive symptoms as side effects. Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Malabsorption of essential nutrients can occur with continued symptoms.  Deficiencies in Niacin, Thiamine, and other B vitamins can cause digestive symptoms.  Gastrointestinal Beriberi and Pellagra are often overlooked by doctors because they are not familiar with nutritional deficiency disease symptoms.  Nutritional deficiencies can worsen over time as stores inside the body are depleted.   Have your doctors checked for all these?   I had a horrible time getting my symptoms under control.  I had to answer all these questions myself.  Yes, it's frustrating and exasperating because doctors don't have to live with these symptoms everyday.
