Does the bruise look like Jesus or his mother, Mary? Maybe you could be a saint? :huh:

No, this just magically happens on pieces of toast.. . . . . . ..

Did you see I posted that I found a gluten-free bakery and lunch place in Sandy? It's Eleanors bake shop. You have to try it & let me know if it's good.

I can't get him to take his shirt off anywhere outside of home--Like doing quick changes at Target to try on shirts.... Not that I try to get my 5 year old to strip :lol: But at home its a different story. He wears his pajama tops open like Hugh Heffner :lol::lol:

My son once went out wearing a costume that was a body builder. Now he's into lifting weights and Martial Arts (has been for years) but don't think he has a 6 pack yet.

Hey! Is the bruise starting to look like something or someone? Michael Jackson, perhaps, or, after a couple of days, Louis Armstrong in full trumpet-blow? Around here you must report any changes to bruises, what/who it is currently resembling......... :rolleyes:

YES! Go as Joan Rivers!

My DD wears a jill during hockey - - goes right where a jock goes for guys, but it is thick cloth that straps around the area. Not nearly as terrifying. Don't suppose Kherrighnne could talk her DS into switching to one o' these. . .. . .. . ...<_<

ARRRRGGG!! lost my reply again while checking it!!!!! I went out to do errands today after applying expensive gluten-free make-up for 20 minutes (again - I swear I'm staying in until Saturday when we go to the Haunted Hotel)). One stop was the Health Food Store and I wound up telling her about the black eye (she didn't notice it until I mentioned it). She gave me a homeopathic remedy that helps the bruise fade quicker: Arnica Montana. You dissolve 4 tablets under your tongue 4xdy. Wondering if I should still ice it (ICE, ICE BABY back in my head again).

After doing more errands than I planned I was finally getting ready to have lunch. Decided I wasn't drinking enough fluids and wanted apple juice (I use 50/50 apple and water). Of course I knocked it all over my counter, on one of the kitchen stools by the counter and a LARGE part of my floor. Used almost a half a roll of paper towels sopping it up and then got on hands and knees to wipe it with a sponge. It's still sticky so I have to look for the mop and cleaning supplies (don't know where hubby put them in our new house). Anyone know the best way to get juice out of a chair cushion? I used a LOT of disinfectant wipes and have a towel sopping it up. I have probably CC'd myself real good with the cleaning products!

Haven't noticed any resemblances from the bruise yet - will ask hubby tonight what he sees. Right now I see a half of Alvin the Chipmunk's face (after a fight?) when I look in the mirror. I think it's spreading because I sleep on that side. I need to look better by next week. I have two friends visiting me from where I lived during the days off for NEA (YAY) and I'm starting a painting class (that should give me a lot of psilly material to share here). My friends know Rob (Souperman/Clark)but still don't want to look the way I do when they see me.

Also, I remembered the name of the Gwen Stephani song that I couldn't remember. It's Hollaback girl. When I was originally looking for it (about a year ago) I thought it was called Harlem Black Girl!!!!

P.S I miss taking my son Trick or Treating. Now I'll have door duty. I don't know how many kids will come as it's a newly constructed development. There are houses near us that are considered the older part of town.I probably bought WAY too much candy. My hubby will have to bring the leftovers it in to work. I have always made special halloween bags for the kids I knew in my neighborhood. My neighbor on one side has 7 kids so I'm making them special bags.

I have found arnica fabulous for a lot of things: bruising, bad cuts, my daughter's acne flare-ups, and most particularly swelling (from injury and/or surgery). I'll be anxious to hear how it works for you, Low-eee. . .... ..

Man, that's a much better name than "Hollaback Girl". . . . . .what in hell does THAT mean, anyways? :rolleyes:

Did hubby remember your birthday? If not you have a BIG IOU coming!!!!!!!!!! My husband and I have birthdays that are only 4 days (and 11 years with me being the older one) apart. Hard not to remember.

Aluminum foil diaper with a "kiss" banner coming in out of it. He's dessert.

My dad once went to a party as a baby. My mom used a tablecloth to make the diaper and he had a baby bonnet and a bottle. She went as a boy scout. I think I still have a picture of it somewhere.

Gluten free?

The owner has Celiac and I assumed it was gluten-free because she knows how sensitive I am. I'll be able to tell REALLY soon if it's not. Just googled it and some brands contain sucrolose and lactose (both of which I'm avoiding). I really need this to fade as being housebound is not good for my mental health and covering it up is expensive and time consuming. Will also buy witch hazel to try.

Hubby picking it up for me on way home. Found out from someone on the bruising thread I posted that Arnicca Montana can cause GI problems and internal bleeding. Considering that I have an ulcer I think witch hazel is safer.

Thanks!!!!!

So, I'm alone fer dinner tonight so I thought I'd have a hamburger with toast....put the burger on the stove and start the toast. Open the fridge and remember they come to get the trash in a little while so I start cleaning out in there and rearranging.....

Must have gotten lost in me thoughts (dangerous) because I looked up and there was a thick grey stream of smoke coming up out of the toaster. :o I immediately unplug it and dig the burned bread out wif a knife, but the toaster is still smoking--bad. :o :o

I'm petrified that the fire alarm will go off and I'll be blamed for evacuating a building full of people. :ph34r: I open the window, get the ceiling fan going, turn the A/C on....then I carry the stupid toaster into the other room--for what, I don't know.....it still smells but the smoke has dissipated.

There was still time to get the fossilized piece of bread out into the trash before it was collected. :rolleyes:

I probably shouldn't be left alone :lol::unsure:

Years ago I had pop tarts to catch on fire in the toaster oven. Last year my mother, Dear Lord please help her, I think she was cooking dried beans and she forgot about them, and when she came downstairs there was black smoke everywhere. The pan had been there so long it melted to the cooktop. :blink: It was so bad they had to buy a new cooktop. After that I bought her a timer to wear around her neck.

      Waiting Gastroenterology review

      By RMJ · Posted

      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,

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Bev in Milw · Posted

      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…

      Food Allergies

      By Ginger38 · Posted

      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

      Bread choice for a newbie

      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.

      7yo struggling!

      By JForman · Posted

      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?
