Isn't she in California? That would be 8 o'clock for us east coasters.

Speaking of devil dogs, I am really starting to think my dog has some kind of loose wiring. :( She has had major problems with aggression, and I thought I had gotten it trained out of her, but now this past week it's resurfacing. I don't understand, I raised this dog from 3 weeks, bottle fed her and everything :( :( I am so depressed. And sick. Ugh.

Sorry to be a downer.

You're not a downer--things always seem so much worse when you're sick :( I don't know very much about dogs, but I hope it's something like a phase that she will come back out of.

You're right about Susie and the time difference--I knew that, too :huh:

You guys are the best. :)

There is GOOD news....both masses were lipomas, plain as day. :) So NO cancer!!

However....I probably don't sound that excited because I am heavy with sadness as todya's stuff was outrageously expensive. Way more than I was told.....:o:( And I worry I'll never get out of debt.....

But as our dear Nicola said - - 'tis only money, right?

Thank you sillies, for your moral support!

Annie is just sitting here whining quietly and insistently - - she feels it was a great assault and indignance she has endured.......poor baby. So sad to watch kids and animals in pain....

Sarah - you are not a downer!! Rant away....

Must go to Spanish now, but feel I should stay home.....rather torn.....

:huh:

Susie, Fantastic News!!! I'm surprised and happy that they could have the info so quickly for you . . . they usually make you sit around, worry, and stew about for days!

Ouch on the $$bill$$ So here's an idea . . . for Christmas,instead of gifts, tell everyone that you've made a donation to LIMPSY on their behalf (maybe throw in a nice photo of Annie in her snazzy superdog outfit). If you did all the paperwork and made LIMPSY a tax deductable charity, you could probably write it off on your taxes, too.

I had Gus up asleep beside me all night, (DH was scrunched almost off the bed), and felt him sending strong canine vibes to Annie. Well done, Gus...and Annie!

Susie, consider the vet bill the ultimate Christmas present to yourself, your dogs and all friends who benefit from your terrific, happy, healthy company. Annie is vital to your well-being, so you are giving to everyone. You've done your holiday shopping...and I love Janet's idea of sending out a super-Annie card!

All right...so now our parade will include ALL pets. I'm certain that Queen Bev would heartily approve this motion. Gus used to have a tendency to hump most other dogs his size, but this seems, thankfully, to have abated. But wait...he'll have the yeti...!

:o:lol:

Why, what lovely ladies you have, Richard! And congratulations on resisting the urge to augment your photo with The Wiggles and YooHoos. :P

No augmentation needed. They are PERFECT :wub::rolleyes:

WTH is a YooHoo? I know the Wiggles (duu-uuuhhh)...you're not talking about the drink, are you? The high fructose corn syrup and cocoa powder concoction? :blink:

Has anyone else noticed . . . Richard seems to be feeling a LOT better today.

So Brits yell out drink names to say hello and cereal names to say good-bye!

I'm on my second YooHoo! :blink::ph34r::rolleyes:

Isn't that the actual name YooHoo! (with an exclamation point)...that alone should be a harbinger indicative of the migraine to follow!

(edit)

Nope, I was mistaken. The name is actually Open Original Shared Link - no exclamation mark... i had it confused with YAHOOOOOOOOO! They actually advertise "chocolatey goodness"...

Richard may being feeling better but I could not be feeling worse...last night I slept on my couch from 5:30-7:30 and went bed at 10. I am still tired and my stomach is feeling gross.

I'm back--despite the heiniosity.....I called all the utilities yesterday to have the accounts closed on Monday--well, the phone company (who also is our internet provider) goofed and shut off our phone and (shudder) internet last night. :o

I was an hour on the cell phone this morning to get it reconnected--and get this--I have to call again to disconnect :blink::angry:<_<

I've been passed off from person to person--all with that annoying, patronizing tone that this was somehow my fault, and they were doing me a big favor. :angry:

Ok--got that out! I feel much better now. Carry on :D

Oh no Amanda--you can't get sick!

Was it something you ate, or do you think you have the flu that's going around?

Get lots of rest and pamper yourself today...are you home?

      Gluten exposure when trying to conceive

      By trents · Posted

      My reaction to a gluten bolus exposure is similar to yours, with 2-3 hours of severe abdominal cramps and intractable emesis followed by several hours of diarrhea. I don't necessarily equate that one large exposure to gluten with significant intestinal lining damage, however. I think it's just a violent reaction to a what the body perceives to be a somewhat toxic substance that I am no longer tolerant of because I have quit exposing myself to it regularly. It's just the body purging itself of it rather than an expression of significant damage. Before diagnosis, when I was consuming gluten daily, I had little to no GI distress. I was, for the most part, a "silent celiac". The damage to my small bowel lining didn't happen all at once but was slow and insidious, accumulating over a period of years. The last time I got a big shot of gluten was about three years ago when I got my wife's wheat biscuits mixed up with my gluten-free ones. There was this acute reaction after about two hours of ingestion as I described above. I felt washed out for a few days and fully recovered within a week or so.  Now, I'm a 74-year-old male. So, I'm not worried about being pregnant. And I don't want to contradict your physicians advice. But I just don't think you have done significant damage to your small bowel lining by one episode of significant gluten ingestion. I just don't think it works that way.

      Gluten exposure when trying to conceive

      By Skydawg · Posted

      Wondering about some thoughts on how long to wait to try to get pregnant after a gluten exposure?  I have been diagnosed for 10 years and have followed the diet strictly. I have been cross contaminated before, but have never had a full on gluten exposure. I went to a restaurant recently, and the waiter messed up and gave me regular bread and told me it was gluten free. 2 hours later I was throwing up for the whole evening. I have never had that kind of reaction before as I have never had such a big exposure. My husband and I were planning to start trying to get pregnant this month. My dr did blood work to check for electrolytes and white blood cells, but did not do a full nutritional panel. Most of my GI symptoms have resolved in the past 2 weeks, but I am definitely still dealing with brain fog, fatigue and headaches. My dr has recommended I wait 3 months before I start to try to get pregnant.   I have read else where about how long it can take for the intestine to fully heal, and the impacts gluten exposure can have on pregnancy. I guess I am really wondering if anyone has had a similar experience? How long does it take to heal after 1 exposure like that, after following the diet so well for 10 years? Is 3 months an okay amount of time to wait? Is there anything I can do in the meantime to reduce my symptoms?

      Gluten Free Cannabis Edibles

      By ShadowLoom · Posted

      I’ve used tinctures and made my own edibles with gluten-free ingredients to stay safe. Dispensary staff don’t always know about gluten, so I double-check labels or just make my own.

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's great to hear that there are some good doctors out there, and this is an example of why having a formal diagnosis can definitely be helpful.

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      By RMJ · Posted

      Update: I have a wonderful new gastroenterologist. She wants to be sure there’s nothing more serious, like refractory celiac, going on. She ordered various tests including some micronutrient tests that no one has ever ordered before.  I’m deficient in folate and zinc and starting supplements for both. I’m so glad I decided to go to a new GI!
