That can't be right - I'm not that old!

On the other hand......

just took the RealAge test and they told me not to worry about my real age, just count my blessings I'm still here :lol:

Hey, I'm not dead yet.

hmmm, it told me I need to eat more grains.

... .. This is my MIL talking, staring at me across the kitchen table, eyes narrowed, lips in a thin line... . . . ...<_<

.... I need to get a dog and to spend more time on myself.

.. . ..Well, two things MIL would never say to me.. .. .. :rolleyes:

OMG. . . .. ....DD just came running up the stairs. She's come from her bedroom where she was lying in bed, browsing through FB on her ipod. There is apparently an application within FB called "Nearby Places", and it shows you, quite literally, commercial shops, restaurants and places of interest that are within a few miles' radius of where you are. She typed in our address and waited for a list.

Up came the gas station on the corner, the nearby college, the nearby museum, and at the bottom of the list.... . . . ...

"My bed".

:huh:

:lol:

She leaped out of her bed, yelling all the way up the stairs "Aaaaaaagh! How did it know I was in my BED??!"

:unsure:

How DID it know?

She is in the kitchen now. .. . . ... ..we'll see what listing comes up. . .... :rolleyes:

I see a reverse application for this "finder". My boys have gps to locate the phones but it only tells me approximately which house they are in. Using this technology from fb, it could tell me "in girls bed" " in garage beer fridge" "in basement playing video games cause they couldn't get any girls or beer"

Yeah, i've seen the 'find places' but have declined thus far (only certain browsers are doing it so far)

Do I really want the world to know where I am?? unsure.gif ....must look into this...

OK,.... you know how you can get complacent about the whole gluten-free thing, and kind of forget how serious it was (IS)??

Tel (for the first time since dx ....oh 6 yrs ago) tried REAL porridge oats yesterday (not millet!)

They were verified gluten-free - grown AND milled seperately from any wheat source.

Less than 5 ppm.

Holy heck - NEVER have I seen such an extreme reaction ohmy.gif

2 hrs after he got the 'fire hydrants'

...then the vomiting like the exorcist started sad.gif (Just tell me if it's tmi!)

I have read for some cOeliacs, their immune system mistakes the protein 'Avenin' in oats as Gluten?

He's ok today - just a lingering headache wacko.gif

THE most extreme reaction Iz EVAH seen in him!!!!

Oye Nik--for Tel, the oats were probably the same as eating a bowl of wheat and thus the dramatic reaction. :( He's one of the unlucky ones (as am I) who can nae tolerate oats--even the pure kind. This condition is so freakin frustrating sometimes....what works fer one doesn't necessarily work for another <_<

Hope he pheels better as the day goes on :)

Gnick! Poor Tel... . . . . ....how awful for the two of you. I seem okay with oats labelled gluten-free....I'm a lucky one. But I think DH reacts to them, so I cannot be throwing them into baking recipes, hamburger, etc. :angry:

Hmm...... .. wonder if FB Places could tell me where my keys and/or sunglasses are? Or where in hell those two socks are, the ones that are mates to those odd two that came out of this morning's wash... . . . . . ...

We have a black ankle style men's sock with 3 small white stripes. No one in our family has ever had any like this. Does it belong to you?

No, I do not have the mate to this sock.. . . . ..however, FB Places told me that it is behind your couch.

Then it went on to tell me that this pair of socks belongs to Angela's boyfriend (our urinating friend, I assume).

Facebook can be an amazing place, methinks!

Well, I think we know why she has not responded NOW..... . ... .. ..hell, her boyfriend's sock is behind your couch! Now, wouldn't anybody be just a little...well... .... ... . . suspicious? Somewhat....reluctant to befriend a woman who is in possession of their partner's thrown-off apparel?

Kherrighnne, you need to message her - - explain everything. Whatever the story is... . .no one here needs to know. Just mend the fences.

And since she is in Newfoundland, you can courier her the boyfriend's sock inexpensively. He may really want it back.

I'm afraid if message her again, she will call the police, or FBI or who ever is in charge of international cyber stalking. Thank goodness this web site never erases any old posts. I can show them we were all in this together! Think we could be cell mates? :huh:

All right. Let's look at this photo again.

Now, WHAT is that black thing in the lower left corner? Look closely... . ... . .....

It's a sock.

Methinks a short, man's sock.

What does this mean??

Wait....it's a fairly big black pile......it is a pair of black socks.

So I think that FB Places is full of crap.... . . .. . .in fact, that errant black sock behind your couch, Kherrighnne, does NOT belong to Angela's boyfriend. He's got both of them! We can clearly see them, in Angela's hospital room. He must have been visiting her, and took his socks off to trim his nails.

Gawd, I'm SO glad I figured all this out.

:huh:

Well pholks.....so much fer a brand new apartment :angry: :angry: :angry: The dryer isn't working right and we got home tonight and the fridge/freezer wasn't working. Had to toss some stuff and Mark took some to his office where there is a fridge. I'm mopping up the soggy mess now <_<

Not the only screw up, we phound out today either. They got some 'splanin to do....

      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!

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

      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/
