Bunnie--I was gonna suggest stroganoff, too. That would be really good. Sour cream, or 0% Fage yogurt, which tastes like sour cream ;)

Yep--I've taken steroids and I always felt better on them. My husband got hyper recently on them after a dental procedure and swears he will never take then again :P

Oh! Oh! Oh! I almost forgot! My sweet hunk of a boyfriend decided to get me treats for my birthday (April 30) And went to this gluten free bakery a town over and ordered me a heart shaped chocolate cake, got muffins, three cupcakes, and a brownie. All I asked for was a cupcake!!! But the lady who started this bakery went to school to be a dessert artist before she found out she had Celiac and decided to pursue her dream gluten free anyway. OH. MY. GOD. These are the best cupcakes and cake I've ever had ever period, screw gluten free. We gave my brother in law a (small) piece of cake and he came back up the stairs a few minutes later with chocolate all over his hands and face going "That was gluten free?!?!" Oh, my lord. Sugar heaven. And she's completely dairy free too, can't even tell. Creamiest frosting on the planet.

POeter is again mentioning his great, big deck.. . . ...

Gahhh!!! Tooooo funny :lol:

Well, Psills, my first day as drama queen was quite eventful.

On my way to the inauguration I not only locked myself out of the house a-gain, but locked my keys (and purse,and cell phone,and COFFEE :o ) in my car. What an idiot inconvenience.

Then, after the festivities and ball and "Llammas On Ice", I was subjected to the most tortuous thing e'er invented (ready?)--

a trans-v/nal ultrasound

Any of you ever had one of those?

Has never come across POeter's great, big deck before... maybe I never will.. :o

Ok, could someone please get over here and restrain me? I'm still on steroids from the rash I had (turned out to be sumac,

Oh, and the really special part? To get me gluten free prednisone they had to give me one milligram pills. I had to take FORTY pills for FOUR days. Thankfully they're very little. Then thirty pills for four days..... Oy.

Get off those 'roids, bunnie! They will turn you into a raving maniac, or a eunuch?? And forty a day for four days?? My God woman... you'll never be able to take them things again. I got totally allergic to them from poison oak infestations (brought in by me kittersers.) Besides, you won't be able to compete in the Tour de France or the Olympics! What in? I dunno...I'm sure there's something you can do real well at! Does they have a cookin' Olympics? Any other ideas?

Almost phorgot! :oAww Hellll to the new Kween Minimome Hope your rain supreme! I see you are already aware of the offishul kourt gesture :lol::lol:

I curtsy to our new Queen in best British (stiffly formal) colonial (much more irreverent) manner. "The Queen is dead; Long Live The Queen" May she reign justly and with wisdom, and an enhanced sense of psillly! :lol:

Don't Queens have "peepul" to do these things? :o Her Majesty should not be subjected to such trivia and should not just be popping out for coffee. There is responsibilties for royalty here.

Goooood Morning, Psillies!

Was in visiting my dad last night, and while I sat chatting with him, a nurse came in and said they were going to move him downstairs for a CT scan AND an ultrasound.

Damn.. . . . next time I will be sure to have a small container of sparkles in me purse.

:rolleyes:

Hey all! Nother gllooommy day...but at least the rain has stopped for a couple of few hours.

Psuess....in order to age gracefully (at least without screaming and tearing out the hair) is to look for the advantages. There are many! While I have never been "beautiful", I realize at this time in my life that I never will be, and don't have to be concerned about it anymore. I don't have to care. If someone has a problem with my looks, it's their problem and not mine! :D Therefore, I have no difficulty with going to the store *fresh* from the garden complete with dirt under my nails and dirt stains on my jeans. If my hair is not perfect...no sweat...I love to wear caps! I save lots of money by not wearing makeup and perfumes. I don't have to impress anyone, I just have to be happy with who I am. I don't have to take (too much) crap from anyone, I have enough crap of my own.

Anyone who is a real and genuinely decent person will see beyond the exterior to the real, wonderful person you are inside. Those are the people who are my friends and who I want to surround me in my (all too short) life. These people can deal with, and even love, my odd quirks, sometimes strange moods, and the whole range of things that make me individual.

Wishing I could help you to find acceptance and peace within *your* world. 'Tis a lovely world we live in once you get past the crud that other people toss around in it :D

Minimomi...Love the Av! You're a great new neighbor to have in Psillyville!

Hmmmmmm......trans V/invasion.....never want to try that particular joy-ride! The yearly humiliation is bad enough!!!

Glad to hear that Manda-panda is all right! Hope she comes to the surface soon and avoids drowning!

Well......back to the housework. Hoping to play outside soon and stay dry at the same time.

Hey Jude.....hope your hanging in there all right!

flourgirl Apprentice

Hey Bunnyrabbitt! I was on steroids just once. Doc thought it would help tendonitis (I was having problems with lots of inflammation in lots of places :( ) I had a severe allergic reaction and thought I was literally going to die! Probably wasn't smart, but I stopped cold and tossed them all. They are so nasty, I would tell anyone to be cautious, and only to consider them a last alternative. I guess many people take them safely...hope they are helping you. Take care!

      Check your multivitamin to see if it contains Thiamine Mononitrate, which is a "shelf-stable" form of thiamine that doesn't break down with exposure to light, heat, and time sitting on a shelf waiting to be sold.  Our bodies have difficulty absorbing and utilizing it.  Only 30% is absorbed and less can be utilized.   There's some question as to how well multivitamins dissolve in the digestive tract.  You can test this at home.  YouTube has instructional videos.   Talk to your nutritionist about adding a B Complex.  The B vitamins are water soluble, so any excess is easily excreted if not needed.  Consider adding additional Thiamine in the forms Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) or thiamine hydrochloride.   Thiamine is needed to help control electrolytes.  Without sufficient thiamine, the kidneys loose electrolytes easily resulting in low sodium and chloride.   We need extra thiamine when we're emotionally stressed, physically ill, and when we exercise regularly, are an athlete, or do physical labor outdoors, and in hot weather.  Your return to activities and athletics may have depleted your thiamine and other B vitamins to a point symptoms are appearing.   The deficiency symptoms of B vitamins overlap, and can be pretty vague, or easily written off as due to something else like being tired after a busy day.  The symptoms you listed are the same as early B vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially Thiamine.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms can appear in as little as three days.  I recognize the symptoms as those I had when I was deficient.  It can get much worse. "My symptoms are as follows: Dizziness, lightheaded, headaches (mostly sinus), jaw/neck pain, severe tinnitus, joint stiffness, fatigue, irregular heart rate, post exercise muscle fatigue and soreness, brain fog, insomnia.  Generally feeling unwell." I took a B 50 Complex twice a day and extra thiamine in the forms Benfotiamine and TTFD.  I currently take the Ex Plus supplement used in this study which shows B vitamins, especially Thiamine B 1, Riboflavin B2, Pyridoxine B 6, and B12 Cobalamine are very helpful.   A functional evaluation of anti-fatigue and exercise performance improvement following vitamin B complex supplementation in healthy humans, a randomized double-blind trial https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10542023/

      I am taking a multivitamin which is pretty bolstered with B’s.  Additional Calcium, D3, Magnesium, Vit C, and Ubiquinol.  Started Creapure creatine monohydrate in June for athletic recovery and brain fog.  I have been working with a Nutritionist along side my Dr. since February.  My TTG IGA levels in January were 52.8 and my DGP IGA was >250 (I don’t know the exact number since it was so high).  All my other labs were normal except Sodium and Chloride which were low.  I have more labs coming up in Dec.  I make my own bread, and don’t eat a lot of processed gluten-free snacks.
    • knitty kitty
      @Scatterbrain, What supplements are you taking? I agree that the problem may be nutritional deficiencies.  It's worth talking to a dietician or nutritionist about.   Did you get a Marsh score at your diagnosis?  Was your tTg IgA level very high?  These can indicate more intestinal damage and poorer absorption of nutrients.   Are you eating processed gluten free food stuffs?  Have you looked into the Autoimmune Protocol Diet?  
    • knitty kitty
      Vitamin and mineral deficiencies can make TMJ worse.  Vitamins like B12 , Thiamine B1, and Pyridoxine B6 help relieve pain.  Half of the patients in one study were deficient in these three vitamins in one study below. Malabsorption of vitamins and minerals is common in celiac disease.  It's important to eat healthy nutrient dense diets like the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet that has similarities to the Mediterranean diet mentioned in one of the studies.   Is there a link between diet and painful temporomandibular disorders? A cross-sectional study https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12442269/   Nutritional Strategies for Chronic Craniofacial Pain and Temporomandibular Disorders: Current Clinical and Preclinical Insights https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11397166/   Serum nutrient deficiencies in the patient with complex temporomandibular joint problems https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC2446412/  
    • Iam
      Yes.  I have had the tmj condition for 40 years. My only help was strictly following celiac and also eliminating soy.  Numerous dental visits and several professionally made bite plates  did very little to help with symptoms
