Ho hum. I apparently have gotten myself a stress fracture, involving the second and third metatarsil on the top of my foot. Happened suddenly during a step class ten days ago - - felt sudden, real pain as I was doing my jumping around.......only a matter of time. Too much pounding and punishing overuse through the years. :angry:

OUCH!!!!....Overly Svenning and the inevitable injuries <_< ....but EXCELLENT news on the crutch tip!!!!! (will it match in coloUr????? :unsure: )

Hobble be GONE Em!!!

Hey sillies . . . more guests arriving tonight so that means more cleaning. But I just wanted to tell Emily that if she didn't spend so much time and energy with Sven, she would have never gotten a stress fracture!!!

Hi. I am new to this. I am compltely devoid of humour - humourless - notin's funny - don't even have a funny bone. I need something funny in my life. Mind if I hang here for awhile? Maybe its contagious and I can 'catch" humour. If I don't come down with it in a reasoable time, I'll remove my grumpy, old ass from here. Promise!

Yes....... . . . .Sven and I are now about to change our relationship, at least temporarily. I won't be able to see him every day, and when I do, things will be.....well, different. My heart rate won't be getting as high.......not as breathless, won't be leaving the ground with both feet. .. . ......

Gawd, sounds like I'm marrying him. . . ...... :lol:

Who are all these people descending upon Jyaghnutt? :unsure: Not the in-laws.....they will be living down the street....... ... . ..

Hi Susan--Welcome to madness :lol: Sounds like you've come to the right place! Make yerselph at home--we spell phunny, Emily's harmless, and other than that just jump right in. :D

Ok sillies--I keep having this dream where I'm walking down a street in the downtown area of my hometown. All is well until I enter a store--then no matter which door I try to exit I don't recognize the area. Suddenly, it's a desolate, industrial kind of place. No one around. :unsure:

I had it again this morning just before I woke up--very weird.

WIH?

Hi Susan--welcome to the world of Phunnies!!!!!

We talk about missing crutch tips in spas, ballcocks, Sven, yetis, and dangling participles!!!!

Love it here

Sillies--this day is going by so slow....my goodness....

ranger Enthusiast

Perfect for a deppresso. In this dream, do you know what kind of store this is? Do you feel that your future looks flat ( in real life). Are you in any kind of rut? Do you still have things to look forward to? Do you feel at all kind of locked into your currant situatio, even if thats a good place? I dunno.

I'm not sure about this. Is a ballcock something that's found inside a toilet? I warned you guys - no humor

A ballcock is whatever you imagine it to be :lol: A Yeti, last I heard, was still a snowman, but I was not here when he made his original appearance. Ditto for when Sven came along; you just have to kinda go wif da phlow and pick things up in context as you go along. You will think that sons are husbands and husbands are sons, and mebbe even make a phool of yerselph over what you don't know, but everybody luvs that anyway, the more phoolish the better. You can never make too much of a phool of yerselph here; dat's what's nice about it.

Patteigh, is this a TexAss desolate, industrial kinda space. Is you feeling a bit lost and lonely down dere?

hmmm.....a humourless ranger and we are already dangling yeti ballcocks. Things get scary quick around here.

. . . as oppose to just after you woke up!!! :lol:

Sounds to me like you need to go back in the store and do some shopping!!! . . . Yep, you apparently need some retail therapy!!!

I'm not sure about this. Is a ballcock something that's found inside a toilet?

Yes it is!!! We just seem to like the word and try to use it in everyday converstation as much as possible . . . :lol:

Welcome, Susan . . . tis a great thread that you've jumped into . . . some really phunnee people . . . also, there's a money back guarantee. If you find that you are not enjoying yourself, just return your unused portion of the thread and someone . . . not me . . . will refund your purchase price (less delivery fees, of course).

OK . . . I'm stalling . . . and actually letting the vacuum cleaner cool down. I've got lots to do yet and the motor is hot!!! Four hours before Cincinnati friends arrive but Skeeter has horse back riding lessons during that time too.

TaTa for now.

Stick around Susan, we'll help you find your inner sillie!!

Ballcock, ballcock. Yes, I'm beginning to like that word. Gotta run. I've got to quick do something obvious in the house so DH thinks I did something today! Later.

I can assure you that your new silly friends will always make you feel better even on the worst of days. I know they have always done that for me :)

I find that dumping a potted plant over near anything that needs to be cleaned works really well. When whoever shows up you greet them with exasperation saying "I just finish cleaning and the cat goes and does this. Do you mind if we just hang out in the other room?"

I have a lot of plants :ph34r: :ph34r:

But you already made me larf by calling yerself a grumpy old ass. Methinks you are anything but. I have two phunny bones and I'd lend you one buit they're not gluten free (gawd, I miss Funny Bones with milk!)

Patteigh, is this a TexAss desolate, industrial kinda space. Is you feeling a bit lost and lonely down dere?

But more importantly, do you still have yer clothes on? :P :P

And thats the beauty of the internet - I can tell a joke that bad and nobody can hit me over the head with a beer bottle! Or, at least, I hope not.

      I think, after reading this, that you areso traumatized by not being able yo understand what your medical advisors have been  what medical conditions are that you would like to find a group of people who also feel traumatized who would agree with you and also support you. You are on a crusade much as the way the US Cabinet  official, the Health Director of our nation is in trying to change what he considers outdated and incorrect health advisories. He does not have the education, background or experience to be in the position he occupies and is not making beneficial decisions. That man suffered a terrible trauma early in his life when his father was assonated. We see now how he developed and worked himself into a powerful position.  Unless you are willing to take some advice or  are willing to use a few of the known methods of starting on a path to better health then not many of us on this Celiac Forum will be able to join you in a continuing series of complaints about medical advisors.    I am almost 90 years old. I am strictly gluten free. I use 2 herbs to help me stay as clear minded as possible. You are not wrong in complaining about medical practitioners. You might be more effective with a clearer mind, less anger and a more comfortable life if you would just try some of the suggestions offered by our fellow celiac volunteers.

      Thus has got to STOP , medical bit believing us! I literally went through 31 years thinking it was just a food allergy as its downplayed by medical if THEY weren't the ones who diagnosed us! Im positive for HLA-DQ2 which is first celiac patient per Iran and Turkey. Here in the States especially in Cali its why do you feel that way? Why do you think your celiac? Your not eating gluten so its something else.Medical caused me depression. I thought I was safe with my former pcp for 25 years considering i thought everything I went through and going through will be available when I get fired again for health. Health not write-ups my health always come back when you're better.Im not and being tossed away at no fault to my own other than shitty genes.I was denied disability because person said he didn't know how to classify me! I said Im celiac, i have ibs, hernia, sciatica, high blood pressure, in constant pain have skin and eye issues and menopause intensified everything. With that my celiac nightmare began to reprove my disregarded disease to a bunch of clowns who think they are my careteam when they said I didn't have...I feel Im still breathing so I can fight this so no body else has to deal with this nightmare. Starting over with " new care team" and waisting more time on why I think I am when diagnosed in 1994 before food eliminated from my diet. P.s everything i went through I did write to medical board, so pretty sure I will continue to have a hard time.

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.
