you can find the rest of your lunch for a mid-day snack,

Hmmmm........all my crumbs fall straight through to me belly button <_<

All right, we have exhausted the subject of trans-vaginal ultra-sounds here. I have another proceedure, equally invasive but likely not as undignified, to bring up and on which to get feedback: the infamous bone scan.

Who's had one?

Just had one recently. No biggy......'ceptin mine showed I have osteopenia :(

I once lost a coin collection......do you think it may have turned up in your mamma's boobs? Just askin' :D

or perhaps all those lost socks?

....no, wait..........Sleezle is usin those! :lol: ...........or was that tissues? :unsure:

:lol::lol: Can't imagine THAT either!!!! Especially having parts with minds of their own....

Pseriously! That's why God must be a woman!

can you imagine the thought process when she created man? :lol:

Oh Jess, I'm so sorry about your babies :( Buttercup had some tooth issues for along time--she worked away at them on the cabinet knob til they starting falling out

and her BREATH--ugh <greenpukeguy>

We eventually had to have all but about 2 teeth pulled. She was soooo happy to feel better, and started eating again for the first time in a longgg while. :)

Reminds me of a chihuahua I had as a child. He sat on a fire ant's nest. it eventually caused his spine to curve and most of his teef to fall out.

I lurved my dog just the same :wub:

So you want a pornogfraph of me. I don't know if such a thing exits.. Keep in mind that I am a thin-as-a-rail rinkly, krinkly old lady, extrordinarily ugly, and I am always necked.

I have the poifect solution!.......You simply must visit Nik.....she can iron anything! :D

....and there is no such thing as an ugly psilly.........we is alll bee-you-tee phul! :)

That picture just cracks me up! :lol:

Oh, so now PeOter speaks! :P

flourgirl Apprentice

Psuessle! That is a most handsome SkiTTle! Wonder what he thinks about all of those psillies in psillyvilli posing wif their Samatars!

Hi All! So nice to see you all here. Go Sleezee.....streak that beeyuteephul wrinkly ol bod! But, would'n you be willin to cover up for a few minutes for one little ol' pic? *I* got brave and did it! I'm not old yet (don't think I ever will be, either, at least not in my mind). When I lost so much weight, and all of that lovely muscle tone I developed lots of wrinkles :angry: . Phinally gained some weight back and look more normal (nobody has called me sir in a while, at least). Lately, tho'.....I've notices wrinkles coming back on my arms.... :o:( . Maybe I should join a Jim, go for the 6-pack abs (do women get those?) and get my "man-arms" back. :lol:

Pietpurrrr said "crack" :P

Have a phine evening all.

Oops! Phorgot to mention.....

Em.....I love the tree!

Jestgar Rising Star
:o WHOT? there are?? I haven't reached that stage yet :( I mean, I know I'm psilly and phun and all but.......still caught up on some issues.

well WEEEEE think you're valuable, 8-probably-just-fine-after-all pounds and everything.

Max loved the tuna, did not care for the salmon. I believe I've eaten more fish this week then in the last month - and I eat a lot of fish. I think he's put on a half pound or so (maddeningly slow).

Lyle's back gums are infected. He's on antibiotics and pain meds. Gotta bring him back in when the infections down for a recheck.

He's really likin' the tramadol.

When I checked the guest list a minute ago we had crabs!! :o :o :o :o

I just did THE stoopidest thing.....made a lil dessert of yogurt, blueberries and nuts. Went to sprinkle on some cinnamon and grabbed the garlic power instead. Tried to scrape it off and then mix it really well--didn't work, actually almost made me gag. :angry:

That'll teach me to pay attention to what I'm doing :lol:

      Wow KK, thank you so much for all your attached info. I had a very quick scan but will read more in depth later.  The one concerning corticosteroid use is very interesting. That would relate to secondary adrenal insufficiency I think , ie AI caused by steroids such as taken long term for eg asthma. I have primary autoimmune AI, my adrenals are atrophied, no chance if recovery there. But I am in touch with some secondaries, so something to bear in mind. .  Niacin B3 Very interesting too. Must have a good read about that.  Im sure lots of questions will arise as I progress with dermatitis herpetiformis. In the mean time, thanks for your help.
    • knitty kitty
      Welcome to the forum, @suek54, I have Dermatitis Herpetiformis, too.  I found taking Niacin B3 very helpful in clearing my skin from blisters as well as improving the itchies-without-rash (peripheral neuropathy).  Niacin has been used since the 1950's to improve dermatitis herpetiformis.   I try to balance my iodine intake (which will cause flairs) with Selenium which improves thyroid function.   Interesting Reading: Dermatitis herpetiformis effectively treated with heparin, tetracycline and nicotinamide https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10844495/   Experience with selenium used to recover adrenocortical function in patients taking glucocorticosteroids long https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24437222/   Two Cases of Dermatitis Herpetiformis Successfully Treated with Tetracycline and Niacinamide https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30390734/   Steroid-Resistant Rash With Neuropsychiatric Deterioration and Weight Loss: A Modern-Day Case of Pellagra https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12532421/#:~:text=Figure 2.,(right panel) upper limbs.&text=The distribution of the rash,patient's substantial response to treatment.   Nicotinic acid therapy of dermatitis herpetiformis (1950) https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15412276/

      Thank you all for your advice and the dermatitis herpetiformis article. The latter made me realise I had stopped taking my antihistamine, which I will restart today. The Dapsone has cleared the rash entirely but I still get quite a bit itching, absolutely nothing to see though. I know its notoriously hard to clear and its still relatively early days for me.  The iodine issue is very interesting. I do eat quite a bit of salt because I have Addison's disease and sodium retention is an issue. I also have autoimmune hypothyroidism, not sure how a low iodine diet would play into that? Because of my Addison's I am totally steroid dependent, I take steroids 4 x daily and cannot mount any defence against inflammation. I need to increase my meds for that. Now that I know what is wrong I can do just that if Im having a bad day. Life is very sweet, just so damn complicated sometimes! Hey ho, onwards. Thank you again for your advice.

      So, essentially all of the nutrition in the food we eat is absorbed through the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestinal track that is damaged by celiac disease. This villous lining is composed of billions of finger-like projections that create a huge amount of surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the celiac person, when gluten is consumed, it triggers an autoimmune reaction in this area which, of course, generates inflammation. The antibodies connected with this inflammation is what the celiac blood tests are designed to detect but this inflammation, over time, wears down the finger-like projections of the villous lining. Of course, when this proceeds for an extended period of time, greatly reduces the absorption efficiency of the villous lining and often results in many and various nutrient deficiency-related health issues. Classic examples would be osteoporosis and iron deficiency. But there are many more. Low D3 levels is a well-known celiac-caused nutritional deficiency. So is low B12. All the B vitamins in fact. Magnesium, zinc, etc.  Celiac disease can also cause liver inflammation. You mention elevated ALP levels. Elevated liver enzymes over a period of 13 years was what led to my celiac diagnosis. Within three months of going gluten free my liver enzymes normalized. I had elevated AST and ALT. The development of sensitivities to other food proteins is very common in the celiac population. Most common cross reactive foods are dairy and oats but eggs, soy and corn are also relatively common offenders. Lactose intolerance is also common in the celiac population because of damage to the SB lining.  Eggs when they are scrambled or fried give me a gut ache. But when I poach them, they do not. The steam and heat of poaching causes a hydrolysis process that alters the protein in the egg. They don't bother me in baked goods either so I assume the same process is at work. I bought a plastic poacher on Amazon to make poaching very easy. All this to say that many of the issues you describe could be caused by celiac disease.

      thank you so much for your detailed and extremely helpful reply!! I can say with absolute certainty that the less gluten containing products I've eaten over the past several years, the better I've felt.   I wasn't avoiding gluten, I was avoiding refined grains (and most processed foods) as well as anything that made me feel bad when I ate it. It's the same reason I gave up dairy and eggs- they make me feel ill.  I do have a bit of a sugar addiction lol so a lot of times I wasn't sure if it was the refined grains that I was eating - or the sugar. So from time to time I might have a cookie or something but I've learned how to make wonderful cookies and golden brownies with BEANS!! and no refined sugar - I use date paste instead. Pizza made me so ill- but I thought it was probably the cheese. I gave up pizza and haven't missed it. the one time I tried a slice I felt so bad I knew I'd never touch it again. I stopped eating wheat pasta at least 3 yrs ago- just didn't feel well after eating it. I tried chick pea pasta and a few others and discovered I like the brown rice pasta. I still don't eat a lot of pasta but it's nice for a change when I want something easy. TBH over the years I've wondered sometimes if I might be gluten intolerant but really believed it was not possible for me to have celiac disease. NOW I need to know for sure- because I'm in the middle of a long process of trying to find out why I have a high parathyroid level (NOT the thyroid- but rather the 4 glands that control the calcium balance in your body) I have had a hard time getting my vit D level up, my serum calcium has run on the low side of normal for many years... and now I am losing calcium from my bones and excreting it in my urine (some sort of renal calcium leak) Also have a high ALP since 2014. And now rapidly worsening bone density.  I still do not have a firm diagnosis. Could be secondary HPT (but secondary to what? we need to know) It could be early primary HPT. I am spilling calcium in my urine but is that caused by the high parathyroid hormone or is it the reason my PTH is high>? there are multiple feedback loops for this condition.    so I will keep eating the bread and some wheat germ that does not seem to bother me too much (it hasn't got enough gluten to use just wheat germ)    but I'm curious- if you don't have a strong reaction to a product- like me and wheat germ- does that mean it's ok to eat or is it still causing harm even if you don't have any obvious symptoms? I guess what you are saying about silent celiac makes it likely that you can have no symptoms and still have the harm... but geez! you'd think they'd come up with a way to test for this that didn't require you to consume something that makes you sick! I worry about the complications I've been reading about- different kinds of cancers etc. also wondering- are there degrees of celiac disease?  is there any correlation between symptoms and the amnt of damage to your intestines? I also need a firm diagnosis because I have an identical twin sister ... so if I have celiac, she has it too- or at least the genetic make up for having it. I did have a VERY major stress to my body in 2014-2016 time frame .. lost 50lbs in a short period of time and had severe symptoms from acute protracted withdrawal off an SSRI drug (that I'd been given an unethically high dose of, by a dr who has since lost his license)  Going off the drug was a good thing and in many ways my health improved dramatically- just losing 50lbs was helpful but I also went  off almost a dozen different medications, totally changed my diet and have been doing pretty well except for the past 3-4 yrs when the symptoms related to the parathyroid issue cropped up. It is likely that I had low vit D for some time and that caused me a lot of symptoms. The endo now tells me that low vit D can be caused by celiac disease so I need to know for sure! thank you for all that great and useful information!!!
