Birthday update- Hub & M came home from scouts. J made brownies. Had a couple of presents and cards.

Patti- maybe you should have thrown out the toaster, too!

Jess- of course we are jealous or reminiscing our youth ( I've been with hub 32 years). We need some fun!

Lincecum looked like he was playing his first Little League game in the first inning, but has redeemed hisself :D G I A N T S - Giants In Another Tortuous Series :lol: Maybe this time????? It's so hard being a Giants fan - 46 years of it!!!!!

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. . .... ..

Hmmmmmm.I wonder if that will work for my arm. Can you believe it is STILL bruised? Been almost 4 months <_<

You bet your sweet bippy! :P:lol::D

Oooh! I remember that!

Laugh-In! :lol:

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!!!!!

Witch Hazel has already faded it a little. As for what the bruise looks like. Th eye looks like a shiner but the face is more like a peninsula.

P.S. Karanggggg- glad hubby is not in the doghouse!!!!!!!!!

Happy Birthday, Em!

Loey Rising Star

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:

Glad you're OK! Too bad we weren't together. What a team we would have made! I managed to spill a glass of apple juice all over the counter, counter chair and floor- what a sticky mess!!!!!!!. Got on my hands and knees and cleaned it as best I could. Hubby washed floor when he got home from work (he really is Zuperman).

We're in a new house and they never hooked up the vent from the oven to the outside of our house. I made duck in August and we had to use the self clean setting on the oven. Surprised the smoke detectors didn't go off that night. Have paid for someone to hook it up correctly since then.

We did return home from the movies one night and evidently our alarm was going off for 4 hours ("Carbon Monoxide Detected"). We had left the windows open because it was warm but called the fire department anyway (the 7 kids next door LOVED that). Turns out that because my husband installed hard wood floors (and did a lot of cutting wood on the first floor of our house) without covering the smoke detectors, small particles finally set the detectors off.

Glad yer okay lady!! Be careful! Were you lost in thought, living vicariously thru Jess's upcoming 2 nights of 'rectification'??

:lol::lol::lol:

I'm following Jess's lead and hoping for one night of rectification! Perhaps after the Haunted Motel (or perhaps there?)!

Not jealous -just old. I do plan on being a copy cat after the Haunted Motel (I hope). It's sad when you can remember the last time and it was months ago.

Well, no need to be jealous. We watched baseball and then fell asleep as soon as we went upstairs. Ah well, I don't have a tv, so no world series for him tonight. :D

Who's volunteering to be our third stooge?

We'll see how I do at the Haunted Motel. Hopefully I won't fall in the dark and then I can come home and attack Clark. He deserves Superwoman after all the support he's given. I think I mentioned (brain fog) that last year we went to the Haunted Penitentiary in Philly. It was really awesome and extra creepy because it was a real prison. I took a really long time walking through. I actually talked back to the people trying to scare me. I even scared one back - I grabbed his hand (most were in the cells). I imagine it was a cool job for young kids.

Thanks, guys! Dinner out @ a very lovely gluten-free restaurant, then cake back here......got a couple of old friends coming over for drinks.. . . . .....

DH is in no doghouse -- he has dutifully remembered, and got me a high-tech heart-rate monitor. All good!

      @knitty kitty  The information you've provided is invaluable!  I have a lot more homework to do before we make the official switch but you have significantly increased my hope that we can get her off Miralax (she started at 3 years old and is almost 8!).  This weekend my husband and I plan to solidify all the details for a start point, then adjust as we go along.  I realize that everyone's body is different, then there's also the fact that she's a child but just out of curiosity if you don't mind sharing and if you'd rather not, no problem at all-how long did you take Miralax before switching and when you switched, did you just completely stop the Miralax or was there a period where you did Miralax and the supplements?  I plan to research that piece this weekend but just curious what you did.

      Scott, thanks so much for the thoughtful replies. My doctor did actually just re-order thyroid labs to see what is going on with my TPOs. I agree that will be interesting information.  I think I know the answer to this, but as far as the biopsy . . .. that would be quite conclusive as far as celiac goes, but a negative result would not rule out NCGS, correct? Does NCGS also cause damage to the lower intestine/leaky gut?  I appreciate the thought that I should be open-minded to other causes. I did not have dysautonomia on my radar, so I will look into that. From a quick scan at the potential symptoms it seems like almost anyone could convince themselves they have it, very broad! I can see why that is a tricky one to diagnose. I did also show low vitamin D, I'm in New England so that is somewhat common. I have a memory of low iron on some lab result as well but I can't find it, so I'll look into that. My cholesterol is high too, so working on that.  While the initial adjustment was tough, I have actually adapted fairly well to going gluten-free at home. The tough part for me is I love eating out and traveling, so that has been a challenge. I suppose if the answer ends up being NCGS then I could maintain a mostly gluten-free diet but also experiment with the occasional splurges. Snowboarding just doesn't feel right without a beer in the lodge . . ... cider is just not the same!  Thanks again.

      I did some research and found out that vaccines put preservatives, sugar alcohols and metals in them. Which I have a intolerance too.  I was supposed to do testing to find out metal's I was allergic to because I can't  wear jewelry of any kind. Mayo felt I had other allergies also.

      For individuals who have experienced negative reactions to the flu vaccine, there are alternative formulations that may reduce the risk of allergic responses. Traditional flu vaccines are typically produced using egg-based methods, which can pose issues for those with egg allergies. However, there are now several egg-free options available, such as cell-based and recombinant flu vaccines. Recombinant Vaccines (e.g., Flublok Quadrivalent): These are produced without the use of eggs and are grown in insect cells, making them a suitable option for individuals with egg allergies. Cell-Based Vaccines (e.g., Flucelvax Quadrivalent): These vaccines are also egg-free and are produced using mammalian cell cultures, which can be a safer alternative for those with egg allergies. Other Considerations: If you have had a reaction to a specific component of the flu vaccine (e.g., gelatin, preservatives, or antibiotics), discussing your medical history with a healthcare provider is crucial. They can help identify vaccines that exclude these ingredients. It's important to consult with an allergist or healthcare provider to determine the safest option based on your specific allergies and medical history. They can also provide guidance on pre-vaccination testing or desensitization protocols if necessary. Also, at @trents mentioned, could you be getting hidden gluten in your diet? Do you eat in restaurants? If so, this could be why you still have high gluten antibodies.

      Mayo is great and yes I had the same experience.  They take you seriously and they check everything.  I to wish other Dr's cared that much. I sure hope it's not refractory celiac also.
