You rang? Have been thinking bout a rhyme for today. May have to borrow one for inspiration:

The Man Not Taken

:lol::lol: Bevel! Mr. Frost would be most impressed. . ....!!

Buh-kneeeeee......okay, good, the itchies have dissipated. Hmm......... . .. ...ya look like a scary thang, though? I say you go to work. It will be amusing to see people's reactions. . . . ....

:huh:

:unsure:

:lol: Amanda! I was awoken from a sound sleep this morning at 6:15 to the sound of Allo peeing in the corner of my bedroom all over the carpet. <_< I went to scoop him up and take him to the litter box, but as I got out of bed, I had a sudden charley horse in my calf and stumbled. I think the poor thing is losing it :(

Patti, get his kidneys checked. He might just need supplemental fluid.

:( Poor ole Allo

We think our mean girl cat (Lucy) has dementia :huh:

A phormer meticulously clean cat, she has taken to peeing on Daniel's bed (he is not terribly happy with this new trick of hers <_< ) .....but also, everytime I move she trots out to the phood bowl, meows pitiphully for more .....until I remind her she just ate :rolleyes:

She's all...'I just ate???.....really????.....ugh!...I'm getting SOO phat'

5 minutes later we go through the WHOLE process again :rolleyes::lol:

Nik!!!!!!!!!!!!

Allo does this very same thing! He acts desperate for phood at times, whining pitifully--and this is a kitty who has never wanted fer his next meal :lol::(

It's tough watching them getting old--Allo's also lost weight and you can tell his arthritis is bothering him.

Jess--he does drink his water, we put ice cubes in to entice him since he really likes it that way. I give him fresh several times a day, and keep a good eye out since we lost a cat years ago to kidney disease :( The minute he stops drinking, I'm on it.

Gawd, poor Daniel.....can he keep his bedroom door closed when not in use?

:lol: ER SUMPHIN ......for sure

Forgot to mention -- last evening, the camera guy started the piece by taking a close shot of the pic in my av, and then cutting to my parents sitting beside each other as they give each other a kiss. He asked them at one point, "Hey! Do you two think you could replicate the pose in your beach photo? I could cut from it to you, doing the same thing, same position, sixty-odd years later".........

Dear gawd. I am SO relieved to say that it was not considered something that they would even think of attempting.

Have I told you about our IBTC?.....That's the Itty Bitty Titty Committee. I think I left what little bit I had left back in Houston. :rolleyes: Why not.....Brian left part of himself in Houston!

You bet your bippy!!!.......Haven't heard that in a looooong time.......although to be historically correct, it should be..."you bet your sweet bippy"!!.....Where did that originate from, anyway?

Tinkerbell will often cry to be fed when she still has food in her dish, so I just move the food around with my fingers so she can hear it, and she's happy. She's real picky though....when she eats, little pieces fall back into the dish, as she doesn't eat the pieces whole. She won't eat those pieces <_< ..........does anyone know of a cat that will only eat tiny pieces?.......I'd sell 'em real cheap!

Can't remember who else to comment on........everyone's been absolutely heelarious!........still don't quite feel psilly enough to comment on them all........but I'm workin on it!

Grrrrrr........haven't been on in days and what do you know..........I get a phone call! <_<

      Hi everyone. Back in 2022 I had blood work drawn for iga ext gliadin. Since then I’ve developed worse stomach issues and all other health issues. My doctor just said cut out gluten. He did no further testing. Please see my test results attached. I just need some direction cause I feel so ill and the stomach pain is becoming worse. Can this test show indications for other gastrointestinal diseases?
    • Fayeb23
      Thank you. These were the results TTG ABS NUMERICAL: > 250.0 U/mL [< 14.99]  Really don’t understand the results!
    • Scott Adams
      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.
    • RMJ
      To evaluate the TTG antibody result we’d need to know the normal range for that lab.  Labs don’t all use the same units.  However, based on any normal ranges that I’ve seen and the listed result being greater than a number rather than a specific number, I’d say yes, that is high! Higher than the range where the test can give a quantitative result. You got good advice not to change your diet yet.  If you went gluten free your intestines would start to heal, confusing any further testing,
    • Bev in Milw
      Scott is correct….Thank you for catching that!      Direct link for info  of fillers.    http://www.glutenfreedrugs.com/Excipients.htm Link is on 2nd page  of www.glutenfreedrugs.com   Site was started by a pharmacist (or 2) maybe 15-20 yrs ago with LAST updated in  2017.  This makes it’s Drug List so old that it’s no longer relevant. Companies & contacts, along with suppliers &  sources would need to be referenced, same amount effort  as starting with current data on DailyMed      That being said, Excipient List is still be relevant since major changes to product labeling occurred prior ’17.           List is the dictionary that sources the ‘foreign-to-us’ terms used on pharmaceutical labels, terms we need to rule out gluten.    Note on DailyMed INFO— When you look for a specific drug on DailyMed, notice that nearly all of companies (brands/labels) are flagged as a ‘Repackager’… This would seem to suggest the actual ‘pills’ are being mass produced by a limited number of wholesaler suppliers (esp for older meds out of  patent protection.).      If so, multiple repackager-get  bulk shipments  from same supplier will all  be selling identical meds —same formula/fillers. Others repackager-could be switching suppliers  frequently based on cost, or runs both gluten-free & non- items on same lines.  No way to know  without contacting company.     While some I know have  searched pharmacies chasing a specific brand, long-term  solution is to find (or teach) pharmacy staff who’s willing help.    When I got 1st Rx ~8 years ago, I went to Walgreens & said I needed gluten-free.  Walked  out when pharmacist said  ‘How am I supposed  to know…’  (ar least he as honest… ). Walmart pharmacists down the block were ‘No problem!’—Once, they wouldn’t release my Rx, still waiting on gluten-free status from a new supplier. Re: Timeliness of DailyMed info?   A serendipitous conversation with cousin in Mi was unexpectedly reassuring.  She works in office of Perrigo, major products of OTC meds (was 1st to add gluten-free labels).  I TOTALLY lucked out when I asked about her job: “TODAY I trained a new full-time employee to make entries to Daily Med.’  Task had grown to hours a day, time she needed for tasks that couldn’t be delegated….We can only hope majorities of companies are as  conscientious!   For the Newbies…. SOLE  purpose of  fillers (possible gluten) in meds is to  hold the active ingredients together in a doseable form.  Drugs  given by injection or as IV are always gluten-free!  (Sometimes drs can do antibiotics w/ one-time injection rather than 7-10 days of  pills .) Liquid meds (typically for kids)—still read labels, but  could be an a simpler option for some products…
