Thanks for the present!

Happy Birfday K!!!

Hubby and kids didn't remember??? Well, that's the norm at my house. Hubby always asks me when his mother's birfday is . . . :huh: Let us know if they were faking not remembering . . . always good to have the over-the-top guilt-trip present in mind so that they can make it up to you just in case they really did forget.

BE's dad had a stroke yesterday and they're keeping him at the hospital for 2 days. The boys take turns staying with mom at the hospital and tonight is Blue Eyes' night.

I'm thinking of dropping my stat class because I don't think I'm learning it well enough. Making an appointment with the prof to discuss it with him.

Oh no--I will keep his dad in my thoughts.

Good luck with your meeting with the professor :)

I was just talking to Jack about the world of statistics, and I read this.. . . . ....I then mentioned that you may be dropping your class, and he said, "Oh, man, stats would be so EASY! It's stuff like, "there have been 12, 084, 695 global hectares of desertification this year..... .. 1, 936,00,704 google searches have been performed so far today. . . ....... 10 % of all human beings ever born are alive at this very moment".. . . .. .ya know, stuff like that. EASY!" :rolleyes:

Keirregne's boifday - many happies!

BE's dad - hope he recovers and gets outta there :)

I am so TOTALLY not with LGG.

Statistics - think you have to be bad at addition to be able to do that. :lol: Clay taught a stat class once - has me do the adding no matter what it is; my erstwhile bridge partner (a naval architect by training) who KNOWS what cards everyone is holding, can't add up our score :unsure::blink: Me, I took math all the way through HS and flunked it every year, including on school certificate. Fortunately they averaged your subjects for school cert. :P cos I flunked chemistry too, of course.

I like made up stats better than real ones. Take a creative writing class.

Does sound like more fun.

M, could you have Jack whip this out for me:

A random variable has pdf f(x) = 1/(b-a) when a<x<b, and 0 otherwise.

a ) derive the mgf Mx(t)

b ) hence, or otherwise, find E[X^k] where k is a positive integer.

I need it by Wednesday morning.

GRRRR... I just lost my reply!!!!!!!!

I can't imagine taking Statistics. Good luck with the professor, Jetsgar. I taught G&T one year. I was great at teaching Architecture, Medieval Times, Journalism, and How to Write a Research Paper but teaching these kids math was HARD. They thought nothing of correcting the teacher to begin with. I developed a system of having a backup "teacher of the day" if I needed it and they rose to the occasion. I also learned a lot (I'm a firm believer that you can learn from kids). I think I've always been mathematically challenged and I almost didn't take the job when I found out I was teaching G&T Math.

Healing prayers to BE's Dad.

Big Birthday Hugs to the lady who brought me here and feeds and walks me. I'm sure your hubby has something up his sleeve (or else!!!).

You need a better story than "fell out of bed". How about:

Gawd Loughie--are you alright? :o

I had just discovered that the reason I tend to fall a lot is probably Ataxia (not klutziness, which I always assumed it was). The very same night I found out about it I rolled out of bed and the sound was so loud it woke Superman right up. He got me ice and that helped with the swelling. I do still feel like a truck hit me. Superman/Clark is the sweetest guy and I don't want to leave the house looking like this. Luckily my gluten-free makeup covers it because we had plans to see our son for dinner at college yesterday. He's an oblivious 18 year old and the lights were dim. I told him about it and at first he said "so dad thought you fell out of bed" and we both said, "no I did fall out of bed." I got an extra hug from him.

I'll get a blood work up to see what vitamin deficiencies I might have as soon as my GI refers me to a GP. Thankfully the GI is finally taking me seriously since the capsule endoscopy showed an ulcer. I actually get my calls returned immediately. It's amazing how many pieces to the puzzle there are. This forum has taught me so much and of course the best part is the psilliness!!!!!!!!!

OK, birthday girl - I fought a Ninja and he/she looks worse than I do!!!!! Or perhaps Superman was exposed to Kryptonite while taking me for a ride and dropped me by mistake?

      To evaluate the TTG antibody result we’d need to know the normal range for that lab.  Labs don’t all use the same units.  However, based on any normal ranges that I’ve seen and the listed result being greater than a number rather than a specific number, I’d say yes, that is high! Higher than the range where the test can give a quantitative result. You got good advice not to change your diet yet.  If you went gluten free your intestines would start to heal, confusing any further testing,

      Scott is correct….Thank you for catching that!      Direct link for info  of fillers.    http://www.glutenfreedrugs.com/Excipients.htm Link is on 2nd page  of www.glutenfreedrugs.com   Site was started by a pharmacist (or 2) maybe 15-20 yrs ago with LAST updated in  2017.  This makes it’s Drug List so old that it’s no longer relevant. Companies & contacts, along with suppliers &  sources would need to be referenced, same amount effort  as starting with current data on DailyMed      That being said, Excipient List is still be relevant since major changes to product labeling occurred prior ’17.           List is the dictionary that sources the ‘foreign-to-us’ terms used on pharmaceutical labels, terms we need to rule out gluten.    Note on DailyMed INFO— When you look for a specific drug on DailyMed, notice that nearly all of companies (brands/labels) are flagged as a ‘Repackager’… This would seem to suggest the actual ‘pills’ are being mass produced by a limited number of wholesaler suppliers (esp for older meds out of  patent protection.).      If so, multiple repackager-get  bulk shipments  from same supplier will all  be selling identical meds —same formula/fillers. Others repackager-could be switching suppliers  frequently based on cost, or runs both gluten-free & non- items on same lines.  No way to know  without contacting company.     While some I know have  searched pharmacies chasing a specific brand, long-term  solution is to find (or teach) pharmacy staff who’s willing help.    When I got 1st Rx ~8 years ago, I went to Walgreens & said I needed gluten-free.  Walked  out when pharmacist said  ‘How am I supposed  to know…’  (ar least he as honest… ). Walmart pharmacists down the block were ‘No problem!’—Once, they wouldn’t release my Rx, still waiting on gluten-free status from a new supplier. Re: Timeliness of DailyMed info?   A serendipitous conversation with cousin in Mi was unexpectedly reassuring.  She works in office of Perrigo, major products of OTC meds (was 1st to add gluten-free labels).  I TOTALLY lucked out when I asked about her job: “TODAY I trained a new full-time employee to make entries to Daily Med.’  Task had grown to hours a day, time she needed for tasks that couldn’t be delegated….We can only hope majorities of companies are as  conscientious!   For the Newbies…. SOLE  purpose of  fillers (possible gluten) in meds is to  hold the active ingredients together in a doseable form.  Drugs  given by injection or as IV are always gluten-free!  (Sometimes drs can do antibiotics w/ one-time injection rather than 7-10 days of  pills .) Liquid meds (typically for kids)—still read labels, but  could be an a simpler option for some products…

      So I recently had allergy testing for IGE antibodies in response to foods. My test results came back positive to corn, white potatoes, egg whites. Tomatoes, almonds and peanuts to name a few.  I have had obvious reactions to a few of these - particularly tomatoes and corn- both GI issues. I don’t really understand all this allergy versus celiac stuff. If the food allergies are mild do I have to avoid these foods entirely? I don’t know what I will eat if I can’t  have corn based gluten free products

      Geography makes a difference.  I'm in the West and Trader Joe's gluten-free bread tastes great and is a better price than most gluten-free breads sold elsewhere in my area.

      We have four children (7-14 yo), and our 7 year old was diagnosed with NCGS (though all Celiac labs were positive, her scope at 4 years old was negative so docs in the US won't call it celiac). We have started her on a Gluten Free diet after 3 years of major digestive issues and ruling out just about everything under the sun. Our home and kitchen and myself are all gluten-free. But I have not asked my husband/her dad or her other siblings to go completely gluten-free with us. They are at home, but not out of the home. This has led to situations when we are eating out where she has to consistently see others eating things she can't have and she has begun to say "Well, I can't have <fill in the blank>...stupid gluten."  How have you supported your gluten-free kiddos in the mental health space of this journey, especially young ones like her. I know it's hard for me as an adult sometimes to miss out, so I can't imagine being 7 and dealing with it! Any tips or ideas to help with this?
