I wonder what the speed limit is on that roadway? Long and winding, or direct? Any detours?

I once dated a guy from Toronto; does that count?

NZ is on my list as well . . . shall we go at the same time?? . . . keep each other company on the flight?? . . . who else is in??

Moi!!!!! :rolleyes:

Listening along, I suddenly piped up, "Well, you must spend a lot of time on the Trans-Vaginal Highway".

Quite right, both of you. I has been thru Fresno (but did not stop) but don't remember if 99 goes thru Clovis. If it does, I definitely did not stop. Was on my way to Springville and got lost in the orange groves trying to avoid going thru Porterville. I kept easting and southing, and phinally phound my way. If I hadda known that Soozle was in Clovis I would even have detoured, provided she had some mojitos waiting when I got there :D :D :D

And also Ptaoughmghmnuss's appointment. Hope he stops in soon to report on that.

We figure we'll be around Acadia National Park somewhere . . . I'm having a hard time navigating my atlas. There's a bazillion towns along the coast . . . all with populations under 1000 and everyone of them gets a dot. :blink: . . . I bought reading glasses . . . :ph34r:

great idea!

We did go to Acadia and it was WONDERFUL but I wasn't gluten-free at the time.

sorry. try to get to pass through Wells Maine.

"Well, you must spend a lot of time on the Trans-Vaginal Highway".

We had some trauma on the trip and.....Weezee got kicked out of Sophie's mom's/uncles'condo :blink: there was screaming on the phone (from her mom) and a really psychotic attack - was very, very sad and traumatic (her mom is CRAZY)

WHAAAAaatttt?!?!?!? :o

Glad yer enjoyed it in the end :)

- OH!!! they took away all me many channels - no more HBO movies

OH now ---come ON!!!

<_<:lol:

THIS made me inhale me diet coke!! :lol::lol::lol:

<I never know if M's playing wiv us?>

T'would make a great scene in a movie methinks? :lol:

Got now't.... 'cept some random thoughts....

:lol:

DaY 1 of 7 week school holiday

<make them go away!>

..have to take DC to get his fixed brace Wed, then the day after he has an interview at a college (for a part time course in Catering)

SO, I'm thinking

1) He won't be able to talk coherently at his interview due to the brace

2) I should really consider getting him RE-tested for celiac disease before he embarks on a career in the food industry

:blink:

GADS - BRIDAL SHOWER?!?!

WIH??...do we have them in Blighty??

SO much organising for our Leesah!

GIan-knit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gad, I really do wish that I HAD made this up... . . ......quite phunne here, but I was not within a very......appreciative? like-humoured? laid back?? NORMAL???.....audience at the time. Trans-Canada, Trans-Vaginal - - same inflection, same number of syllables, same intonation... . . ....an easy, almost expected slip, wouldn't everyone say? :huh:<_<:rolleyes:

1) He won't be able to talk coherently at his interview due to the brace

Bah! Those college interviewers have to be completely accustomed to this, Nik.... .....methinks ALL teenagers talk sparingly, and in muffled, monosyllabic grunts -- should be nuthin' new..... . . ..

I heard me name being called and found me psilly at the same time- it's SERENDIPITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Methinks that life would be much more fun if we were all hammered :lol: (especially baby showers- all that OOH AHH.......blech!)

I missed my silly and MY PSILLIES!

Leesargh's got her psilly back- yes. Em, what WAS your MIL doing whilst you were away :huh: ? On the TVH? (trans-va jay jay highway) Or......having too much phun by herself :lol: She found what you had hidden in yer bedside table and tried to insert it in the mattress?

Gianknit- Cannot believe you had a convict story! :ph34r: Glad you are safe. YES! Gianknit's coming to Maine...so many ideas for you! It's so beautiful.......how long will you have. I'll email you but there are so many great places- must see Acadia National Park (Bar harbor is a wonderphul town too). You could easily spend a week there and still have more left to do (hiking, biking, swimming, going out on a boat or whale watch). Or you could do a coastal trip and hot Bar Harbor, the Camden area and Boothbay.

There is a gluten-free bakery in Wells- the woman who runs it made my wedding cake before I was gluten-free! Her name is Traci Anello but the Maine coast is big so you'd want to be mid-Maine which would be like Portland, LL Bean, Ogunquit. Shoot me an email and I can blather on.

:lol::lol: Well, c'mon, it's not like we're talkin' about an Masters in English er sumphin'. .. . . . ...

This is excellent, Jyess! You smarty-sciency-numbers-yuckystuff-pants, you! ;):D

You IS our resident smarty-pants anyway!

Suze- Sorry about the crazy yelling and Weezee but glad everything turned out well :D

New Zealand is on my top ten list too Shroomie!

All right, I must recount to you all what transpired a couple of nights ago, the evening before MIL flew home. We were at the B and SIL's place for dinner, with in-laws literally everywhere.....

Listening along, I suddenly piped up, "Well, you must spend a lot of time on the Trans-Vaginal Highway".

I wonder what the speed limit is on that roadway? Long and winding, or direct? Any detours?

and sparkly- Em this is SO unbelievably phunny.......I would have peed my pants. :lol: :lol:

OK- those of you who watch Brit TV may remember Peep Show. The guys that did that have a new show that is phunny as HECK. They did two really phunny skits (one on wheat intolerance) but you need some context so here's the:

I was waiting for you to volunteer to go through it with me. Sort of long-distance barmy buddies, weighting our data points together.

      Using anti-inflammatories for symptom management after inadvertent gluten exposure can be a helpful short-term strategy, particularly for reducing discomfort like inflammation, pain, or swelling. However, it shouldn’t replace strict adherence to a gluten-free diet as the primary treatment for conditions like celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. While NSAIDs (e.g., ibuprofen) or natural anti-inflammatories (e.g., turmeric) may provide relief, they don’t address the underlying immune response or intestinal damage caused by gluten. Additionally, long-term or frequent use of NSAIDs carries risks, such as gastrointestinal irritation. It’s best to consult a healthcare provider to tailor an individualized plan, which may include digestive enzymes, hydration, rest, and probiotics alongside anti-inflammatories when needed.

      There is a predictive model for children on this link. Depends on sex, HLA genes and number of affected close relatives.  The model only goes up to age 12 so it would be interesting to know what the lifetime risk is. https://hputter.shinyapps.io/preventcd/
    • thejayland10
      That is a very good point I do not know if they truly ever went down. With my nutrient levels all being good, CBC, metabolic panel I assumed everything was fine over the years. Now Im worried this is refractory celiac or something else 
    • RMJ
      I don’t know how common it is, but it happens.  Total IgA going up is not necessarily celiac related.  The body can make IgA antibodies against all sort of things.   But if I understand correctly that until recently you haven’t had a celiac blood test since diagnosis, how do you know that your recent blood tests are a mild rise, vs never going down to the normal range? That also can happen, although not too common. Some people with celiac disease do react even to purity protocol certified gluten free oats. Removing oats from your diet for a few months and retesting is probably a good idea.
    • thejayland10
      interesting I did not know that was that common or could take that long.  When I was diagnosed 15 yrs ago I was told just follow gluten-free diet and follow up with primary care doctor (who never checked celiac panel again). I felt way better and all the major symptoms went away. It wasn't until recently at 25 (14 yrs after diagnosis) that I thought to follow up with a gastro doctor who then did a celiac panel and noted those minor elevations 3 months ago then I got them checked again by another doctor the other week and were showing roughly the same thing.  I am very strict with what I eat and dieitican was maybe thinking it could be oat flour. I do eat a fair amount of processed food but I will not touch anything unless it is certified gluten free.  Do you see this pretty commonly with others? Having mild rises in TTG IGA and IGA who have been on gluten-free diet for years?
