Patti!!! I tried to PM you yesterday but you are either soooo popular with the "full" mailbox or you have figured out how to keep the likes of me out with a FAKE "full" mailbox! :lol: You know, you should be in the packing mode . . . throw out that stuff (and old mail-hint hint) that you don't need anymore! :)

I think it is the flu. I didn't really eat anything last night. I just slept. This morning all I had so far is herbal tea.

I so feel your pain. I hope yours is a short bout, I know it's terrible timing for you!!!

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

Oh, dear this IS SERIOUS! :o I would just stay near the loo...but I have no experience with diapering myself. :o:blink::ph34r:

I 'm sorry, I must apologize, I am guilty of feeling more myself today! :)

Feel better soon :)

Ha--you are feeling more yourself today...I had to read twice to see what I said that was so funny :lol: (I'm a little slow on the uptake B) )

Poor Amanda--pamper, as in hot tea, naps, warm baths, trashy TV--no diapers needed :D

Richard, you're bad :P

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

Nope, I am at work. If I feel real bad I will go home this afternoon. I have a lot of work to do so I didn't want to miss out especially with me taking off some time for the wedding.

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 my GAWD PATTI !!!!!

Heinousity INDEED , phone companies are EVIL (as are Internet providers) the WORLD over <_<

Glad you got that off your chest :D

<shuffles off to time-out bench> :ph34r:

You MUST be familiar with it by now ......in fact doesn't it have a small (nearly said 'wee' :lol: ) plaque--- stating 'RICHARD'S SPOT'.

So far I got 5 strikes :D .......I apologize in advance for the cats :lol:

Patti said heinosity :lol: Sorry about that, it's good you got it off your chest. Take a deep breath and shake it off!!

Feel better Amanda, Sarah too. Must be the virtual flu??

Janet, excellent idea for Susie's vet expenses!

My flower girl is sick too. Stomach bug for her. I am blaming it on the weather.

<shuffles off to time-out bench> :ph34r:

Hey! You get no bench for timeouts, Richard. It's a dark corner, where you sit on your bum. And say nothing. Nope, nothing. :o:lol: And apparently, you get fifty posts taken off your post number. So, one thousand will come that much later. That's a biiiiig one...Richard Simmons comes over and conducts a one-hour aerobics class with you.

Feel better, Amanda! At least you've got what, a week and a half?

Somebody send me to the dark corner QUICKLY! :o When you say "conducts a one-hour aerobics class with you"....am I conscious for this? <green-guy emoticon here> I can only hope that # 1,000 comes around 3:00 whilst Robert Goulet (emerald nut that he is) is here. i sure hope he doesn't find me sassy (gulp) and slap me :o

....now I'm afraid to post anything further...I didn't realize I was so close to my worst nightmare...

No time to be cheerful. I was just checking in on the puppy. Glad Annie's OK.

If I had time I would do a huge rant on stupid bosses. If everyone would just roll your eyes at my boss for me I'm sure he'll feel it.

How did you do that, Julie? :o I got a 77! :lol: Started right out with the dreaded 7-10 split <_<:P

It was fun, thought--I'm sending it to Mark.

:rolleyes::rolleyes: to your boss

I'm thinking for the type of rolleyes Jestgar was talking about, we need a combination of these two guys: :rolleyes: and <_< .

We're outgrowing our emoticons :lol:

Nikki--

I love your new avatar :D What a great pic of you and Alan.

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.

Brilliant - must make legitimate charity now......

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...!

I do feel that Gus WILL find the yeti most powerfully attractive. Does the yeti smell of wee?

(conserving emoticons here because I will get busted for over-use - hARRUMPH)

Patti - :lol: we've outgrown our emoticons.................

RICHARD - are you drinking yoo hoos? :huh: Good lord, that would explain your (temporary? will a crash ensue?) exuberance......but happy to see you're back to your old, silly self....

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

:lol: Do they have Cheerios in britain?

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.

AMANDA!! I am thinking that you'll get a SMALL FLU now - and it will be over in two days.....you'll be feeling FABULOUS for your wedding!!!

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:

Patti - HEINOSITY, indeed! Glad you're back.

If I had time I would do a huge rant on stupid bosses. If everyone would just roll your eyes at my boss for me I'm sure he'll feel it.

We are sending a HUGE collective eye roll for said wicked bosses. and a HARRUMPH....let us know if you notice any difference.

My poor Weasel - - she is just sleeping and sleeping....wincing when she walks....(the larger mass was right under her armpit).....but she got her pain pill this morning.......

THANKS FOR YOUR GOOD THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS!!!!

Now we have to get the fatty to lose some weight........

I am actually feeling better this afternoon than I was this morning.

I should have been a good girl last week and not spent so much time in that hot tub, with my married rich CEO friend :) Sorry Danny you got me in trouble!

It didn't work out for George Costanza...but then again nothing ever did. Maybe you could try the bottle/can deposit redemption scam :huh:

RICHARD - are you drinking yoo hoos? :huh: Good lord, that would explain your (temporary? will a crash ensue?) exuberance......but happy to see you're back to your old, silly self....

Only in my dreams. Nothing but grade A coffee in my travel mug. EVER. A crash is imminent, however Robert Goulet is in the hospital awaiting a lung transplant :o (I kid you not), so my afternoon slumber will be undisturbed. actually it is a co-workers birthday, and it was is my turn to supply the cake - a NAMASTE chocolate cake with sinful dark chocolate frosting....refueling to begin in 1 hour.

      I was tested back in 2017 and my TTG-IGA was mildly elevated (an 11 with reference range <4) but my EMA was negative and biopsy was negative. Fast forward to 2 weeks ago where I was like y'know what, I still have so many symptoms and I'm always so sick, I should repeat this, thinking it was not going to be positive.  I also found out through 23 and me that I do have the HLA-DQ2.5 gene so I thought it would be good to repeat given my ongoing symptoms. Well my blood work came back with a ttg-iga level of 152.6 with a reference range of <15 and my EMA was positive and EMA titer was 1:10 with reference range of <1:5. I guess I'm nervous that I'm going to do the biopsy and it's going to be negative again, especially since I also had an endoscopy in 2020, not to look for celiac but just as a regular 5 year thing I do because of all my GI issues, and they didn't see anything then either. I have no idea how long the EMA has been positive but I'm wondering if it's very recent, if the biopsy will show damage and if so, if they'll say well the biopsy is the gold standard so it's not celiac? I of course am doing all the things to convince myself that it isn't real. Do a lot of people go through this? I think because back in 2017 my ttg-iga was elevated but not a huge amount and my EMA was negative and my biopsy was negative, I keep thinking this time it's going to be different. But this time my ttg-iga is 152.6 with reference range <15, and my EMA was positive. BUT, my titer is only 1:10 and I keep reading how most people here had a ttg-iga in the hundreds or thousands, and the EMA titer was much higher. So now I am convinced that it was a false positive and when they do the biopsy it'll be negative.

      Welcome to the forum, @linnylou73! Are you claiming this based on a reaction or based upon actual testing?

      Sams club membermark columbian coffee is either cross contaminated or the pods contain gluten
    • KimMS
    • Scott Adams
      This varies a lot from person to person. I include foods that are not certified gluten-free but are labelled "gluten-free", while super sensitive people only use certified gluten-free. Both types of products have been found to contain gluten, so there are no guarantees either way: It you are in the super sensitive group, eating a whole foods based diet where you prepare everything is the safest bet, but it's also difficult. Eating out is the the most risky, even if a restaurant has a gluten-free menu. I also include items that are naturally gluten-free, for example refried beans, tuna, pasta sauces, salsas, etc., which have a low overall risk of contamination.
