What else is new? I am lost in antibiotic vortex. Vewwy, Vewwy tired- insomnia at night and then sleepy all day. But hanging tough- only 10 more weeks to go :D

OK Bevvie. In full support of you hanging tough, I'm giving up sugar for 10 weeks. And no fake subs for sugar, I mean nuthin sweeter than a banana. If you can hang tough, I'll hang tough with you. And every time I see something sweet and yummy, I'll think of you, and count one more day down.

Bloating, tachycardia, erratic heart jumping all over da place, pains in me arms and shoulders, GAAHHHH!!! And no, t'wasn't something I ate, it was all what I didn't eat.

Holy crap, Shroom! :o Are you hypoglycemic?

Dude- YOU ROCK! however, I must say that you can't give up ALL sugar for me. I can't drink on antibiotics cause it turns into sugar and feeds them bacteria so I simply MUST request that you drink enough for both of us! Can you do this? Are you with me? Can I tell you what I'm in the mood for and you drink it for me?

Pretty please :P:D:lol: :lol:

Nice to see Bev. Hang in there, baby!

I'm afraid the date of the Psilly Psummit in Chicago won't work for me. :(

(maybe you could go another weekend, too)

Shroomie, must I give you the lecture about carrying some nuts or other snack with you at all times? The boys would rather Take my need to lecture out on you. :)

Bagheera went to see our vet for the first time this afternoon. She gave him his second set of vaccinations, and loved him. He is 12 weeks old today, and weighed in at 3.4 pounds. He is currently loose in the house, and full of energy.

He has tried sitting on J's computer.

We have a pair of food dishes on legs so Oliver, the 14-year-old diabetic, can easily get to the food. He stands on the floor to dine, but Bagheera has another technique:

and yes Bagheera is giving everyone a run for their money. The 3 adults cats have forgotten what it was like to be a kitten. They are hissing, growling and avoiding him at all possibilities at the moment. Bagheera is not deterred by this at all :lol:

All hail, Queen Em!!!! What can I do for you today? ;)

I missed K's new av...All I can see is the flower and I can't see any of Peetah's new panther pictures on this computer. Day's not startin out too great.....and we're headed across the state to the inlaws tonight---for a total of about 30 hours start to finish. I need to mapquest every Starbucks from here to there!!!

So flippin tired!! Max has woken up at 4am the last 2 days soaked. He's been potty trained for 3 years and now he's wetting his bed?!? :blink: I purposly gave him NOTHING to drink after 5pm last night and made him go to the bathroom twice before he went to bed. He could not have possibly had that much liquid in him to pee THAT much!!! He had a stomachache and a bit of D last night so I'm wondering if he got glutened somehow... He's harder to tell, symptoms are too scattered to be sure. Have you ever heard of wetting the bed after being glutened?

What else is new? I am lost in antibiotic vortex. Vewwy, Vewwy tired- insomnia at night and then sleepy all day. But hanging tough- only 10 more weeks to go :D

I want to learn to make cakes like Rachelle. I went to a party on Sunday and and there was cake (not for me) and I thought, I need to learn to make beautiful cakes like Rachelle but only in my size- let them all drool!

If I could figure out how to ship one wifout being destroyed, I'd git one to you pronto!! Are the antibiotics for the Lyme? My mom's been going thru this for the last 2 years. She gets so far along on the meds, then her liver function tanks and she has to go off of them and restart once all her tests results come back normal. It's really frustrating and scary to think of what this might do to her over time..... :huh:

Bloating, tachycardia, erratic heart jumping all over da place, pains in me arms and shoulders, GAAHHHH!!! And no, t'wasn't something I ate, it was all what I didn't eat.

So while I got a little bit ahead during the day, fell way behind at night. Then slept only four hours so I'll probly be tired all day today. GAAAHHH!

Gotta get off here and get going....

Good Lord!! I hope you're pheeling betteh today!!

Don't know about the gluten part. My 2 boys sometimes would sleep soo soundly they couldn't wake up. Like allergies made them sleepy and a marching band couldn't get them up and accidents would happen. Maybe the allergies or the gluten is making him sleep differently? At least he woke up, mine could sleep through it all.

The allergies are the only real thing that's different right now, and I haven't given him any Claritin since Monday, so I'm not sure. I'll try waking him up to go before I go to bed, see if that helps. I hate doing that though because he never fully wakes up and unless I take matters into my own hands.....(which I don't prefer....) then it's a big mess to clean up! :rolleyes::lol:

Supposedly waking them 2 hours after they go to sleep was supposed to keep them from sleeping too deeply. I would wake him up to go to the bathroom, he would go in there, stand awhile, then flush. Never took down his pants or peed. :P I would have to make sure he was really awake. If this continues, I know some exercises that helped my boys.

Yeah, that is true.

I find if my hayfever's bad coupled WITH the antihistamine I am tired/sleepy (although I don't wet the bed :unsure: )

Hope he sleeps through over the weekend Raech!!!!! -_-

Those awful horns sound like a swarm of bees on TV. Must be really bad in the stadium. Who is blowing those things for 90 minutes? Shouldn't they pass out after about 20 minutes, thus rendering the stadium relatively quiet?

There is software available online that one can download and it will eliminate the sound of these dreaded vuvuzelas if one is watching via computer.. . .. ...this sound is apparently causing players and spectators alike to become somewhat unhinged... .. . ... . .. :huh:

      New Study Reveals Age and Racial Gaps in Pediatric Celiac Testing

It's the only parameter that the affected individual or their family members have control over. We need to learn to become "politely pushy" in order to get proper testing done when...

      Actually, it would be more correct to say that the genetic potential to develop celiac disease is passed down from parents to children. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% of the general population actually do. But it is also true that the offspring of those who do have active celiac disease...

      If you are still eating gluten you could get a celiac disease blood panel done, but I agree with @trents and the gold standard for diagnosing celiac disease would be your endoscopy results. Is it possible they did do a celiac disease panel before your biopsy? This would be the normal chain of events. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% of the general population actually do. But it is also true that the offspring of those who do have active celiac disease are at a considerably higher risk of developing active celiac disease than those of parents who have the genes but don't develop the disease. Some recent, larger studies put the risk at near 50% for the first degree relatives of those who have active celiac disease.

      Fruits & Veggies

      By Jordan Carlson · Posted

      Hello everyone! Been a while since I posted. The past few moths have been the best by for recovery for myself. I have been the least bloated I have ever been, my constant throat clearing is almost gone, I have stopped almost all medication I was prevously taking (was taking vyvanse for adhd, pristiq for anxiety,fomotadine/blexten for histamine blockers and singulair). Only thing I take now is Tecta. I also no longer get any rashes after eating. Things are going very well. Most success came actually once I upped my B12 daily dose to 5,000 mcg. I do have one thing I am un able to figure out and want to see if anyone else has this issue or has experience working around it. Ever since I was born I have always had a issue getting fruits and veggies down. No matter how hard I tried, it would always result in gagging or throwing up. Always just thought I was a picky eater. Now that my stomach and system has healed enough that I can feel when something is off almost istantly, I notice that after eating most fruits (sometimes I am ok with bananas) and veggies, my stomach instantly starts burning and my heart starts to pound and I get really anxious as if my body doesnt know what to do with what just enetered it. So I am thinking now that this is what probably was going on when I was born and my body started rejecting it before which caused this weird sensory issue with it causing the gagging. Hoping someone has some exprience with this as well because I would love to be able to enjoy a nice fruit smoothie once in a while haha. Thanks everyone!

      i know i've been rather cynical and sad about being fully diagnosed in june 2025, but my boyfriend has been consistently showing me the wonderful world that is gluten free cooking and baking. in the past couple of days he's made me a gluten free rice paper-wrapped spanakopita "pastry", plus a wonderful mac and cheese bechamel-ish sauce with gluten free pasta (san remo brand if you're in australia/if you can get your hands on it wherever you are).  those meals are notably gluten free, but mainly he's been making me easy gluten free meals - chili mince with white rice and sour cream, chicken soup with homemade stock from the chicken remains, and roast chickens with rice flour gravy and roast veggies. i'm a bit too thankful and grateful lol. how lucky could i possibly be? and, of course, for those who don't have someone to cook for them, it's quite easy to learn to cook for yourself. i've been making a lot of meals for us too. honestly, cooking is pretty darn fun! knowing basic knife skills and sanitary practices are all you really need. experimenting with spices will help you get on track to creating some really flavourful and yummy dishes. coeliac is a pain, but you can use it to your advantage. healthier eating and having fun in the kitchen are major upsides. much luck to all of you! let's be healthy!
