Gahhh, the PHLUID ONSLAUGHT CONTINUES! This time of the occular ilk.....DD has some yucky thang goin' on with one eye - - conjunctivitis er sumfin'. . . .. .. ..... .

I haven't flipped over a magic post.....what in hell's going on here? :huh::lol:

Thank gawd I am only working very part-time right now....seems all I do each day is take family individuals to and from appointments. Wish we could arrange things such that all of our appointments - - check-ups, emergencies, nagging things -- could be all booked into two solid days, from 8 to 6. Then, nothing for a year. So much more efficient.....we could all mark our toothaches, sore throats, pap smears and endoscopies into our day planners, just blackening in those two day squares.

Man, I should be runnin' things.. . . . . . .. ..

:rolleyes:

y'know, I never liked Dr Laura. I think she's mean for shock value, which works for some people, but any doctor worth their salt should be able to operate in more than one way.

And no, I bought mystery novels!

Twas good...Dina's lips are a lot bigger than last season, though :lol: Jacqueline's new baby is adorable--really cute. If you do want to catch it, Bravo repeats these episodes over and over plus they always show the previous week's episode just prior to the new one. Tis me guilty pleasure :ph34r:

Actually, we will be living not far from where they live, as in pretty close. Mark's new office is in the same town where Danielle lives! Maybe I'll run into one of them at the local Whole Foods, er sumphin B)

Bunnie--I'm not a Doctor Laura phan either....

I think Em is on to sumphin, as usual :D If only all the mundane appointments, errands, and necessary taxiing to and fro could be taken care of inside a single week back to back.... :rolleyes:

We have a wee bird who shows up at out bathroom window (opaque rain glass) and taps as though he wants to come in. He's not stuck there or anything--he comes and goes at will but it's so phunny whilst I'm taking a shower to hear him out there tapping wif his widdle beak. :D

She comes across as a woman hater. If all's we'd do is give "our men" sex, then we'd have the perfect marriage--Oh, and you mustn't work outside the home or you're a bad mom and wife, even if you love your job and it's the job that keeps you sane. Of course DH LOVES the book and think she makes perfect sense <_<

We have some wrens that come in the screen porch doggy door. They sit on the table or chairs & yell at us until we come over to the slider & acknowledge them. Thier new thing is to sit outside the 14 years olds open window & tell him to get up as soon as the sun starts to rise.

I hope they deserve you!!!!

Em- Glad your mom is steadily better! You'll know she's out of the woods when she starts putting on her own Sharpies :D Thinkibg of her and you :wub: :wub: :wub:

My kitteh looks at her bum and says, Eeeeww, do I gotta do this? How distasteful!!

:lol: :lol:

The funny part was that the lady called while I was in Stew Leonard's and I LOST MY *HIT after I hung up, so everyone was staring at the crazy lady jumping around. Oh well. :D

Love it!

Cannot stand her. Actually, I can't stand her, Dr Phil or Oprah (I know I'm in the minority- used to like her when she was human). No tolerance for people who think they have all the answers. :angry:

Sorry about the eye goo. Yucky.

I agree Em- I could devote up to a week. We women folk have all those test- mammies grammed (I'm due- YAHOO!), pap smears, hair cuts. Then never have to worry about those again all year. Imagine cleaning your house once a year? Oh yeah...

Forget The Thriller dance, gals. According to my information, *THE* dance everyone must learn these days is... The Pole Dance!! Yep, it's gone mainstream. And I'm about to tell you how to do it. (You will have to find yer own pole - maybe the one in the fire station <_< ???) You will also have to make your own clothing selection :P

* Stand behind the pole, with one foot close to the base. Using your dominant arm, grab the pole at eye level. Eyeball the pole and lean backwards, straightening your arm as you do.

* Begin to circle the pole, keeping your outside leg straight while swinging it to the side. Pivot on your inside foot and let your inside knee bend slightly as you turn.

* Put your outside foot down, just behind the other foot. Shift your weight to the back foot and hook your inside leg around the front of the pole.

* Drop your hand down the pole and arch your body backwards. Only go as far as your back will allow.

* Straighten up and swing your leg down from the pole. Repeat.

* Take a bow.

Now, your granny shoulda told you how to do this, but I bet she didn't :o because this is the latest get fit technique.

Gads!!! They have these classes here too. Would NEVER let anyone see me do this, would be horrifying for all those involved!! I do, however, have a belly dancing video that I do in the privacy of my own gym wif the door LOCKED and am fully clothed <_<:P

You's guys got any advice on how to deal wif this Dr Laura sitiation? DH thinks everything she's saying is the cure-all. At his point now, I think it would have the opposite affect. If I could git my hands on that woman..... <_<

Off to the Dr to get a strep test--again :(

I was at Walmart one day. A 50ish woman put everything in her car. She pushed the cart out into the drive between parking spaces & let it roll down the row! Walmart People are scary! :o

I'm not sure exactly what she says, but would it be appropriate to ask him to imagine the roles reversed? If he were expected to do whatever Dr Laura says the wife should do? The way you presented it seemed a little one-sided.

Oye Rash-elle....I'll bet you rue the day you brought that woman's book into the house :( I dunno, I'd start by telling him that you have a healthy self respect and he better get his mindset back into the 21st century so ya'll can work together on yer issues....

Oy vey, that Dr. Laura, sanctimonious bi-otch, can nae stand the woman (and I haven't even had to listen to her in nigh on 15 years!) Biggest troublemaker on this planet. Now, every once in a while she comes out with a gem, but ye can nae stand the rest of the blather to wait for it. Dr. Laura is to men what Fox News is to TeaPartyers :lol: Whoops, that was probably a no-no, sorry folks, continue with your regular programming....

      Celiac flare years after diagnosis

      @Aretaeus Cappadocia and @Russ H thank you both for your helpful advice and information. I haven't seen a GI in years. They never helped me aside from my inital diagnosis. All other help has come from my own research, which is why I came here. I will be even more careful in the future.

      @Russ H, I partly agree and partly disagree with you. After looking at it again, I would say that the slick graphic I posted overestimates the risk. Your math is solid, although I find estimates of gluten in white bread at 10-12% rather than the 8% you use. Somewhat contradicting what I wrote before, I agree with you that it would be difficult to ingest ...

The bird-bread may or may not be contributing to what you are experiencing, but it seems unlikely to be the whole story. If you have access to decent healthcare, I would write down your experiences and questions in outline form and bring this to your Dr. I suggest writing it down so you don't get distracted from telling the Dr everything you want to say while you have their attention.

      @Russ H, I partly agree and partly disagree with you. After looking at it again, I would say that the slick graphic I posted overestimates the risk. Your math is solid, although I find estimates of gluten in white bread at 10-12% rather than the 8% you use. Somewhat contradicting what I wrote before, I agree with you that it would be difficult to ingest 10 mg from flinging bread.  However, I would still suggest that @nancydrewandtheceliacclue take precautions against exposure in this activity. I'm not an expert, I could easily be wrong, but if someone is experiencing symptoms and has a known exposure route, it's possible that they are susceptible to less than 10 mg / day, or it is possible that there is/are other undetected sources of exposure that together with this one are causing problems. At any rate, I would want to eliminate any exposure until symptoms are under control before I started testing the safety of potentially risky activities. Here is another representation of what 10 mg of bread would look like. https://www.glutenfreewatchdog.org/news/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/10mgGlutenCrumbsJules.jpg Full article that image came from: https://www.glutenfreewatchdog.org/news/what-does-10-mg-of-gluten-look-like/

I know I am not consuming gluten or coming into contact with gluten from any other source. I will stop touching/tossing bread outside! My diet has not changed, and I do not have reactions to the things I am currently eating, which are few in number. My auto immune reaction just seems so severe. The abdominal pain is extreme. It takes a lot out of me. I guess I will be this way for the rest of my life if I ever happen to come into contact with gluten? I appreciate the help.

      Skin issues

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      Thankyou I did find out the Infectious disease is the route to go rather than dermatologist. I did reach out to two major hospitals and currently waiting on approval for one of them in Infectious Diseases to call me. I also did have implants ( I didn't know and sense not properly in my medical. Neither did surgeon)in 2006 and there was a leak 2023 during the same time I was dealing with covid, digestive issues, eyes and skin.Considering I " should  be fine" not consuming gluten/wheat, taking vitamins for sibo and STILL feeling terrible.It has to be parasites. I also take individual eye drops prescribed, could there be an issue there? Anyways my pcp thinks I need therapy because again they don't acknowledge my digestive issues because in my records it shows im fine, hintz the reason I had to go back to bay area hospital:(  I thought skin issues maybe sibo related but I feel and have seen and seriously trying not to think about it because it's disgusting.
