Buddy the truck will live for $440. Auto shop guy said he was really lucky he didn't damage it more. Should be out of car hospital today, just in time for 6 am football!

Glad the toe is gonna make it. :P When mine was growing back in, it looked like it was growing inwards, but it never did. It took forever, and was pretty gross, but it ended up fine.

The auto shop is quick--you won't be wifout it fer too long.

I feel so old! I have an appointment with a Podiatrist tomorrow. That just seems to me someone old people go to. I bruised my big toenail and it fell off after a long while. The new toenail isn't growing in right. Its like its trying to grow into my toe instead of over. I'm just falling apart!

You highness, please refer to this post. I bruise it every year in my ski boots. He gave me whY he called "toe condoms". They are little silicone covers that go on your toes. They help protect your toes by spreading out the pressure so it's not all on my nail.

Ah yes....toe caps! My younger son had to utilize them at one time due to a toe issue.

..."toe condoms...

Ahhhh . . . a new phrase for our psilly dickshunary.

Ckairenne . . . glad no one got hurt . . . and quite frankly, as bad as this sounds, that $440 price tag could have been a helluva lot worse, too.

Psillies!!! I have been called back to my former preschool position!!! Did I tell you that I volunteered to be layed off?? . . . can't remember . . . they needed to reduce the staff because enrollment was down and there were some people there that truly needed the job a lot more than me. Anyways, I volunteered to not come back and to work as a sub if they needed me to. Well, I got a call this morning that they could use me . . . although not for as many hours. The money is really pretty lousy, but I don't have anything else going on, so what the hell.

That sounds like a fun job. Also, sounds like they like you, so if any more hours come up, they will go to you. I am one of those people that actually like little kids, too.

Hey psills--I think I may have had a breakthrough. Remember when I was whining about shampoo and stuff--it seemed like everything was making me sick? Well, as you know I'm spending some time at Matt's. He does not have a dishwasher and uses the same dishwashing liquid I did--Clorox Greenworks.

Bear wif me....I had been feeling off for a while before coming up here--not gluten but eczema, fatigue, indigestion, nausea, dizziness (kind of), stuff like that. It dawned on me that I had been cooking for myself down there and using my non stick pan a lot (I was doing grilled cheese a lot, and thought my bread was making me sick). Then washing it out wif the Greenworks. Up here, I am the dishwasher and was using it for everything and was feeling worse.

The kicker--Greenworks is almost entirely from coconut :o I have known I was intolerant to coconut for years--to actually eat-- it but I guess using it daily on dishes was too much. Add to that, the California Baby shampoo and the special unscented soap I send away for also contain coconut--it all came to a head.

I just got a bar of coconut-free soap to try,

and have switched back to Palmolive dishwashing liquid. The switch to Palmolive made me better, but I was still dizzy and the eczema was a bit better, but not gone.

Since using the coconut free soap, and making sure I was 100% coconut free, I'm not dizzy and my eczema is actually clearing!!! I've been dizzy for over 3 months now, and along wif the GI stuff, I was getting really worried that something was up. It was feeding my anxiety and when that happens I just tend to go through the motions but worry under the surface all the time.

I know this is long, but I wanted to tell youse guys! A few years ago, I found out that I couldn't tolerate filtered water from my own fridge because the filter was primarily coconut hulls. I learned that here on the board. I wish I had been as diligent about coconut as I am about gluten on the topical use. Or maybe the sensitivity just got worse--who knows?

Anyway--woo-hoo :D

Oh Jan-it--she's still having symptoms? It's definitely tiresome to keep having to play detective with this stuff. :(

It does make me wonder though, how many people who have things like migraines and other unexplained maladies actually are reacting to something they are eating/using/have in their enviroment. I wouldn't have ever thought of these things in my previous life.....

I hope you get it figured out soon. ;)

Hub keeps getting them. They have him call and then say they don't need him and will send him a jury duty slip another time. I got called but I just had a baby or something and I think my response scared them off. Also, I registered as an Independent & that may have scared them off. :)

so maybe tell them your a pregnant Independant whose relatives are all thieves?

Haven't seen the show but do know someone who has a 3-4year old named Tosh. They moved to Seattle cause they were too cool for Ks.

      Celiac and allergic to common subs and adds in prepared foods

      By DAR girl · Posted

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      Disregarded

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By Oldturdle · Posted

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      By plumbago · Posted

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
