You're too hip for me, woman! (I had to look this up :rolleyes::lol::lol: )

We have no idea--I think he headed northwest and hasn't been heard from since :lol:

He's living in my basement..... :unsure:

Who ever sits at parties?

What will Jesse go as? Or is the bubble costume for him? Did you see the other kid with the white George Washington wig?

What about going as Elmo & Katy Perry?

Russell Brandt & Katy Perry? (He does share a first name with you)

Brad & Angelina. Each carry a doll of different races.

:lol::lol::lol:

Ok, no sitting at parties.... but how's about in the car getting there....?

Have you seen the furry toes on Jess's new "cat"?

Rachelle - I know you can go as Patti & I. Or Maddie & Max. Last year we went to Hub's brother's Halloween party. Hub & bro look a lot alike. Hub went and got a KU sweatshirt (he went to rival MU) and wore his glasses instead of contacts - went as his brother. When we got there, his bro had on an MU shirt and was dressed as my Hub.

You're crackin me up lady!

<snort> Yea--and it's guaranteed no one there will be able to tell who you are! :P

:lol::lol:

Go as commercials from TV. I had a friend from work who went as Flo-the girl from the Progressive insurance commericials. Can Jesse pull off that Old Spice guy . . . who's riding a horse. Ummm,...got a horse?

My secretary went as Flo last year. This year she's taking our Dog/Beth costumes to Hawaii with her :lol:

Hmmmmm, got one of those horse on a stick things....

I have a little story to tell. I was trying to explain this to a co-worker and I was laughing so hard at the rediculousness of it all. This is a true story (unfortunately), my girlfriend thinks I should write a book :lol:

(Some names have been changed to protect the not-so-innocent)

Jim is my father, he married Terry, my mother, right before I was born

Jim cheated on Terry with my bother and sister's best friends' mother Sandy (I was her nanny while she was "in the gym" (or in the 'Jim' :huh::lol: ). I was 12

Terry divorced Jim

Terry married Stan and lived happily ever after--sooo not the end of the story... ;)

Jim married Lydia (Sandy got a divorce, got a nose job to try to escape her shame and has rarely been seen since)

Jim got busted for pot, Lydia divorced him

Jim started dating the following:

Tanya-alcoholic, weird

Teresa-missing teeth but super nice

Hannah-my age :huh:

He brought all of these ladies (seprately of course) to our family beach weekends--14-17 of us in 1 house and he brings random strangers he's 'in love' with.

--I walk in on Teresa topless in the kitchen

--Hannah refuses to talk to me

--Tanya is just DRUNK the whole time and won't SHUT UP!!!

FFW 6 months (last Thanksgiving)...

Jim is BFF's with JIM (name NOT changed!) and his wife--we'll call her Crazy

Right before Thanksgiving, JIM drives up into the woods, texts Jim one last time and blows a hole thru his heart with his gun

Christmas day, Jim and Crazy are at my grandma's and Crazy is calling nana, "Mom" and Jim, "Sweetheart" :huh:

New Years Eve-Jim is soooo overcome with emotion and love for Crazy that he gets down on 1 knee and proposes to her right then and there

--Since they have 2 witnesses there with them, Jim marries himself to Crazy right then and there (NO he can't really do that--but he did.....)

She calls my auntie right away to tell her the good news, auntie is P.O'd and tells Jim to call nana right away

FFW 4 months (Beach weekend)

Nana still doesn't know

I'm not supposed to know but auntie told me, cuz we're tight

My brother and sister don't know cuz I sure as heck wasn't going to tell them

Crazy busts into the room-already drunk before arriving- and tells everyone they're married

Brother is P.O'd, sister is upset, I've been drinking so I think its all Heeeelarious!

Crazy asks me to step outside with her and have a chat

--for 20 minutes she lectures me (or slurrrrrrs at me) about my relationship with my dad and how much she loves me and my kids (ummmm, first time I've met the freak), blah, blah, blah

--I tell her politely that it's none of her beeswax and that's that!

Crazy tells my dad that I took her outside and yelled at her and hated on her for 20 minutes :o

Everyone goes to bed, Crazy is passed out in her room

--at 2am she decideds to get up and have another beer, so she takes her beer and crawls in bed with my sister and her boyfriend and wants to chat. :blink:

--Think my sister coulda killed Crazy at this point

The next morning, Crazy skips out after breakfast and we don't see her again for the rest of the weekend :wacko:

Jim and I don't talk for a while after that

FFW 6 months

We're going to the beach this weekend

We're all scared about what's to come

Jim calls, says he's been sent out on a job in central Oregon

Jim and Crazy will not be going to the beach this weekend :D

THE END (for now.....)

      Many of the symptoms, there are over 200, associated with celiac disease and NCGS are vitamin and mineral deficiencies caused by small intestine damage in the case of celiac disease and food avoidance and the poor nutrittion of the Modern American Diet (MAD) I used to turn the heat on even at 78 degrees.  The 600 mcg of Liquid Iodine helped.  Also good for hair, nails, skin and brain fog.  Another good thing for brain fog is phosphatyl choline.  It is essentil for acetylcholine- a brain chemical. I have familial hyperlipdemia and instead of a statin I got a prescription for Nicotinic Acid, 2000 mg a day.  I was already taking 500 mg a day and was really surprised when my HDL when up to  44 and I began sleeping better and my legs and back are getting more flexible.  In addition after the first few doses of itchiness I get a warm fuzzy feeling Raising your vitamin D is crucial.  Low vitamin D allows the immune system to run amuck. intermittent bouts of fatigue, chills/cold intolerance, and shortness of breath/air hunger (sometimes feels like a hollowness in my chest, hard to describe).  Look at Thiamin deficiency. consistently ran hot, was always cranking the a/c, to someone who wears a down vest.  Any combination of deficiencies in B1, B2, B3, B5, choline and Iodine can cause this.  Likely all of them. After a lifetime of mouthbreathing GFD cleared my sinuses.  Post nasal drip is my first symptom of cross contamination nowaday.

      If you mean continueing on Gluten Free my answer is yes.  She showed significant improvement in her behavior and that translates to a happy family.  Do get her tested as sooon as you can.  You might want to investigate genetic testing for Celiac Disease.  Children recover more quickly than adults.  It took my son about 6 months on Nutramigen before going to regular food, gluten free.  Blood tests are not always accurate in very young children. You may be advised to see a gastroenterologist instead of relying on blood tests results. Logic: She is better off gluten than before.  Wheat flour has no nutritional value and has an omega 6: omega 3 ratio of 22:1.  Our bodies do better at 3:1.  Omega 6 causes inflammation. When my son was diagnosed, back in 1976, his doctor recommended my wife and I also go gluten free.  We declined and lived to regret it.  I started GFD at 63 and have spent the last 10 years undoing the damage, some of my symptons went all the way back to my childhood and things I lived with all my life got better.
    • Wheatwacked
      Hi @Nicbent35,             When my son was diagnosed with Celiac Disease when he was weaned, so I understand your frustration.       With improvement so dramatic, it cannot be a coincedence. Get her to the doctor and tell the story and insist on testing.  In the meantime, though, continue on GFD.  Her health is more important than convincing a doctor.  Bring videos of her behaviors if you can.  Even if the blood tests and biopsy prove negative, that is part of the diagnosis process for NCGS and later when she is recovered you can always do a Gluten Challenge.      This is an important time in her developement.  Celiac Disease causes malabsorption syndrome, leading to malnutrition, regardles of what she eats.  Though NCGS may not cause malabsorption, it will affect food choices which can lead to malnutrition.  There may be benifits that an official diagnosis may have, but they don't trump a healthy child.      Get her healthy, then worry about validation later.  Celiac Disease is difficult to diagnosed, especially in children, because doctors look for antibodies in the blood and young children have immature immune systems.  Also you don't mention any gastrologic symtoms and celiac disease is traditionally considered gastrolic only.  Not true.  There are over 200 symptom that celiac disease and the accompaning malnutrion mimics or causes that often causes misdiagnosis and delay in recovery. While at the doctors, ask them about vitamin D deficiency and Iodine deficiency in particular. Milk being the primary source of iodine in the diet, but concerns exist regarding the lower iodine content in organic milk and reduced milk consumption in certain demographics.  Vitamin D deficiency is 40% of the industrialized population and a recent study in the Great Britain showed a wopping 60%, beaten only by some areas of Canada at 70%. And B1, B2, B3, B5 and B6.  Deficiencies in these are common in untreated Celiac Disease and they affect energy production. Are You Confused About Your Celiac Disease Lab Results?
    • knitty kitty
      @plumbago, Are you taking any folate with your B12?   Folate helps regulate HDL levels.  You may try taking a methylfolate supplement with your B12.   If there's a folate deficiency because you aren't absorbing sufficient folate, or have the MThF mutation causing a functional folate deficiency (methylfolate trap), you can have a functional B12 deficiency despite supplementing, resulting in HDL levels not getting regulated, but running high or low.   Pushing the envelope in explanations, too. P. S. Are you taking a B Complex?  Folate and B12 Cobalamine need enzymes made from B6 Pyridoxine's interaction with Thiamine, and B2 Riboflavin's interaction with Thiamine.  Is your Vitamin D low?

      Thank you for all that helpful info, does that mean it’s not a good idea to do what I’m doing? Or since it’s only been a week should I see if I could get her tested now? Would it show up still since it hasn’t been long if they tested her?
