Mark's aunt passed away--the one I've spoken about here....she was 92, an artist, and a really great person. She was more of an aunt to me ever since I've known her (35 years) than my own aunts. I'm going to miss her. Sad thing is that we won't be able to make the funeral--logistically it just can't work out

:( aww, sorry Pads......sounds like she had a good, long run....

:):) TILLYKKE MED FODSELSDAGEN, SOOOOZLE!

SHOVELING!! don't know how you peeps live in snaugh....I really don't......too tired to even pick up dog poop most of the time, can't IMAGINE shoveling snow.....the ENERGY that would take. I swear I would be snaughed in for the entire winter.......could nae come out until it melted :unsure: might even die, er sumthin......

Thank you, sills, for all of yer birthday wishes. I got through it, which was my only plan and goal. Let's just say, I've had WAY better birthdays. :lol::huh:

stay warm, cold, psnowey sillies!!!!!!!!! :)

DingoGirl Enthusiast

oh, and speaking of picking up dog poop - the guy who invented this came into our office today (with my favorite cowboy named Dudley):

Open Original Shared Link

'tis really quite revolutionary. Shane got one for free, and so did Derek, but not I...I got there too late. <_< I shall see if Dudley can bring me one next time, for cheap. Imagine just scooping all the poop right into the sewer! No more plastic poop bags. :huh:

I gotta invent something.

elye Community Regular

SO glad you had champagne yesterday, Sooooze! :)

Open Original Shared Link

That is something. But.. . .. :huh: .....isn't it just as easy (easier, actually) to flush the poop down the toilet, as I do? I mean, ya gotta carry it to the sewer drain..... . ..I'm just as close to my toilet, usually..... . . ...don't need a hose. . .......just -- flush away. .....

Think I'm missin' sumfin ... .. ... :unsure:

:unsure: well, I suppose if yer dogs are poopin' inside the house.....it would be much easier to flush the refuse down the terlit........

:huh:

:lol:

are they, Emmel? pooping inside the house? Or do you bring the poop in from outside and flush it down the terlit? I must know :lol:

okay, well.......sometimes I don't scoop the poop for many days:ph34r: then there's a good-sized BAG of doo-doo, would be lovely to throw it down that sewer thingy, and not have bags of poo-poo trash. ;)

That way, there would only be kitteh poo poo in the trash can. Half as much sh!te.

B)

but wait a minute -

:unsure:

just thought of somethin.........

the poop is all over the yard.......so I'd have to put it in some kind of receptacle to get it TO doo doo drain, adn get it in there.......which means........I'd put it all in a bag, most likely, just as I do now.......then have to scoop it OUT of the bag to get it inside the doo-doo drain.......

or......maybe I could put it in some kind of permanent poop carrier/container, which is only used for transport over TO the sewer drain.......so let's say, I"ll use a metal pie tin. So the tin stays outside, year-round, covered in fecal matter, to be used daily to put the poop in the sewer. <blech>

:unsure:

You're right. it's too hard. :lol:

We really do give a lot of thought to all kinds of poop matters here, don't we. :lol:

G' Mornin', Poops! :lol:

are they, Emmel? pooping inside the house? Or do you bring the poop in from outside and flush it down the terlit? I must know

:lol: Yup, I use a plastic bag, pick up the two or three poops in our backyard (or DH goes ahead with this -- he oft beats me to it, and this causes quite a stir, both of us clambouring, fighting and elbowing each other as we struggle to be the first out the door), walk into the house with said poop in bag and flush it away. Sometimes takes TWO flushes.

:unsure:

:lol: DIS is phunnee

There is technique that must be honed and perfected... . ...... ..I can dump two or three big poops into the toilet bowl, directly out of said plastic bag, without ANY splash-up or contact made with the bowl. It's quite something, actually, and I think I should be interviewed on CNN, and I should absolutely be featured on Barbara Walters' Most Intriguing People of 2009 special.

      @plumbago, I found a good PDF on cholesterol:  Unlocking the mysteries of VLDL: exploring its production, intracellular trafficking, and metabolism as therapeutic targets I just started it, but it may have answers for us, with whacky cholesterol.  The pharmaceuticals don't seem to be interested in anything but statins.   "The nicotine in tobacco causes a decrease in the HDL cholesterol level. " Maybe you should start smoking? 🤪 I have high LDL and low HDL.  It is genetic mutations in the LDLR, APOB, PCSK9, or LDLRAP1 genes. My whole family is on statins for Familial Hyperliperdemia except me.  December I had ultrasound and cat scan for Carotid Artery blockage and both sides are above 85% blockage.  I started on Atorvastatin and that made me weaker than ever, even with CoQ10.  I asked for and got prescription for 2000 mg/day Nicotinic Acid B3 and in the 3 weeks my numbers changed. I am feeling realy good lately.  Stronger and more flexible.  Sleeping better.  Getting roto router (TCar) as soon as I get clearance from a cardiologist.  I expect that by my next blood panels in April to be even better. I am beginning to believe that like vitamin D where the RDA only accounts for preventing Rickets, the RDA for B3 is way underestimated.   From Oct 22 to Jan 17: A1c from 13.5 to 10.2 eGFR from 55 to 79 Triglyeride from 458 to 362 Total cholesterol from 245 to 264 HDL from 27 to 44 VLDL from 84 to 68 LDL from 134 to 154

      I have taken thiamine on and off (just not at this exact moment), and I’m not sure it's made any difference. Yes, I almost always “fast” (12 hours NPO) for blood tests, as do a great many other Americans, so I tend to think that’s not it. All I can say is that the mystery continues. I could do some speculating here…well, heck, let me go ahead and speculate now: The lab ranges we all see on our reports are more or less the averages of Americans who have had those blood tests. Now, it’s up to you and me whether or not to think of the average American as healthy. I can make arguments both ways, more often than not, on the negative. My point here is that maybe the current range of HDL is somewhat skewed (ie, low), and maybe just maybe my super high (plus 100s) HDL results are not something to worry about; the range just needs updating. Why do I say this? Because pre-celiac disease diagnosis, my HDL values were in the normal range, but post celiac disease diagnosis, my HDL levels are way above average. See where I’m going? My trusty guidebook on celiac disease, Recognizing Celiac Disease by Cleo Libonati, RN, BSN, says that HDL increases after being on the gluten free diet. Or can increase, I guess. Then again, it could be something else. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ In thinking of going to a cardiologist, I sort of fear that he/she will be dismissive of a link to celiac disease, treated celiac disease, and would not therefore be considering all possibilities. @trents I'm sorry you've been diligently working on your numbers to no effect. That must be frustrating. LDL is a world that is far better understood than HDL, so for you there's maybe less "mystery." Familial hypercholesterolemia is for sure something that can be tested. Outside of that, you're right, genetics can determine a general pattern.
    • trents
      Well, I have the opposite problem. My LDL has been moderately high for years. I eat healthy and exercise regularly but can't seem to move that meter. I used to be on a statin (and my doctors want me to go back on one) and it brought both HDL and LDL down but the ratios never changed. I think a lot of that cholesterol stuff is just baked into the genes.
    • knitty kitty
      Wow, @plumbago, Curiouser, and curioser... Have you been fasting?  Apparently HDL levels increase after fasting... https://ajcn.nutrition.org/article/S0002-9165(23)31185-7/abstract   I must say it, try taking some Thiamine.  Thiamine helps regulate lipoproteins... Thiamine helped lower HDL in this study whether they had diabetes or not. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3921172/#:~:text=Serum thiamine and its derivatives,supplementation (p %3D 0.009).
    • trents
      Welcome to the forum, @Tyoung! I would assume for the time being that the mild gastritis and the celiac disease are connected and that once you get a good handle on gluten free eating and experience significant healing in the lining of your duodenum, you will also see improvement in the gastritis as well. Gastritis is more often than not an accompanying finding that is commented on in the post scope/biopsy notes when people are positive for celiac disease.
