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.

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:

      Potential celiac need advice

      By itsdunerie · Posted

      Dang......did it again and yeah I should admit I am 63 with clumsy phone thumbs. I started feeling better quickly and a doctor a year later said I had to eat  poison (gluten) every day for a month so he could formally diagnose me and NO FREAKING WAY. I couldn't then and can't imagine putting my body through that crap (no pun intended) on purpose ever again.  Why ingest poison for a month to have some doctor say Hey, All you Have To Do Is Never Eat poison Again..

      15 years ago my best friend 'diagnosed' me as Celiac. Her little nephew had been formally diagnosed and her observations of me dealing with brain fog, stomach problems and other stuff had her convincing me to try going gluten free. Oh my heavens, within 3 days, no lie, I felt human again. Took me about a y

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.
