:o:huh: ...uhhhhh hallucinogenic drugs plus high places are pretty far down my list of things to do before i die...right towards the end...just above scaling a razor ribbon topped eletrified chain-link fence...naked...in the rain...at night...on national tv...in Alabama

*yawn* been there, done that.

:lol:

Susie--

For recaps, go to "Pick a Show" and scroll down. The forums are pretty funny :P

OMG! excellent, thank you Pah-ti.

Given some more thought to the whle moderator question... perhaps the big cheese has slected our moderators witht he whole "keep your friends close, and your enemies closer" mentality...HE (capitalized to show respect) is really keeping a close eye on a select bunch of known table dancers and trampoline bouncers...it makes me feel better to think this is true...anybody see my hallucinogenic meds? :huh: My model glue? My whiteout? Something!Please! My cherry flavored highlighter !

hmmm...I think your theory fits, Scott did ask yours truly - that's right - a few months back, to be a moderator. :o

:huh:

shocked the bejaysus out of me....I pondered it for about a day and did decline. told him that I needed to be free to be as silly as I want.

Did not tell him that I have hardly a SHRED of common sense. :lol::wacko:

She was young and needed the money ;)

Patti....did those hallucinogens arrive ALREADY??? :lol:

PATTI !!!!!!!!!

Are YOU taking Susie's drugs??? .......

Merry Mirth Makers

:lol:

THEY (capitalized to show distrust and contempt) don't call them "drugs"...I have heard that THEY take a daily SOMA supplement...just a rumoUr as far as i know :huh:

OMG - I have nearly a full bottle of SOMA in my cupboard....from the heinous back debacle of July....hmmmm, forgot about those!! Will pull them out for painting assignments and carpet shampooing. ;)

Tom - sillability index. :lol: Once you're moved, you may find your mojo in San Jose. MOving is THE most heinous thing imaginable.

You TOTALLY editted that in. That was NOT there the first time I went by.

Looks like you've put a lot of thought into that list :lol::lol:

Good Call! I'm sure you would be expected to actually read some of the serious posts!

So, how does our Grand Poobah notify one if there's an offer of Moderatorship on the table? (I would be under that one, too...) Does he call in the early evening?..I've been screening calls big-time lately, and one persistent individual whose ID is "unknown source" has been trying to get through. Can't have been Bob Goulet, as he is clearly not speaking right now. Perhaps...hmm, no, it can't be. There have just been too many posts of mine in the last couple of years that Scott would flag and say, "Uh, Patti...(or Bev, or Ursula)..make certain that I never consider that individual as moderator material".

HARRRUMMMPPPH.....

(You probably have to know lots of MATH to do that job, anyways! Icky-poo!)

Well....long before the daily addiction to the silly thread....I WAS quite a serious poster! and, ahem, you may find this hard to believe...but I still DO sometimes venture out of this realm of madness and write something of......just the slightest usefulness. ( <---- <_< questionable)

Our Grand Poobah uses PM's. Never called me--nope, not once :unsure:

What? Who, Scott? really? are you kidding me? Scott and I.....well, I'm not sure if I should tell you guys this but he calls me daily...wants my thoughts on this or that....keeps asking me to write a book, "the Celiac.com Chronicles," has asked that I travel along with his family to many an exotic gluten-free locale (Finland, Italy)....I tell ya, sometimes I just don't answer, he really just wants too much of my valuable time....but we teleconference frequently with all kinds of Celiac experts, they work it around MY schedule.....

*snort*

:lol: :lol: :P

off to the store. I think there is a bag of Nuggets in my future. :ph34r:that part is true.

Ah, this does not surprise me. I was expecting I might hear something like this. You see, just after I arranged that initial meeting all those years ago with Scott regarding my plan for a website for celiac patients and insisted he run with my idea, he told me he would go ahead on one condition: that I stay with him as the CEO, a second-in-command, if you will. The pleading...the grovelling...it is difficult to recount these things, to remember Scott as being so...needy and unsure. I was forced to tell him that I had another life I had to carry on with, and that he would have to find someone else to write the prototype for my book...you guessed it..."The Celiac.com Chronicle". I assured him that there would be another equally capable individual, somewhere. I also informed all of the gastrointestinal researchers that I could no longer head up the teleconferencing (I still do the odd flowchart for them). So, in a nutshell, Susie, you have to start screening your calls, like I do. I'm SO glad he's found you! :lol:

OH YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OK- Susie- That's IT! Scott told me I was his one and only.......don't tell me he showed you his gluten-free ganache mobile? The EDIBLE one? If he did, it's over between he and I and you and he and he and you (but NEVER you and I cuz friends is more IMPOTENT!!!!!!!!!!)

oh my gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawd :lol: :lol: :lol: So YOU were the one!!!! :o I knew it...I just KNEW it!!! You know I don't really mean to brag or anything but Scott (and all the medical experts) do say that my flow charts are WAY gooder than yours. Now now, don't be upset, it's just the facts, as they are. My flow charts are - well I don't know if I should give this away or not, but since it's trademarked, I suppose I can.....my flowcharts are Tollhouse-cookie-scented. And I do mean the REAL ones, w/ gluten, not the ersatz facsimiles.

*snork*

I wish I was half as creative as you . . . but I will settle for only slightly off my rocker.

oh you are FAR more than slightly off your rocker, my dear.

Plus, remember, you're gooder w/ numbers. :blink:

:o He told you about the ganache? HOw DARE he!!! I must speak to him at once......calling him now.....

Mmmmmm......It's not the thought of impending tornadoes. I'm just always ready for a lockdown. I'm...not at liberty to say any more...at this time... :huh:

:lol:

OMG Emily, it's true, isn't it!!! you ARE in the Witness Protection Program!!!! :o

must go now and shampoo CARPETS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :angry: OMG the evil shampoo machine is here, must do some now and the rest tomorrow, when you can expect me to be complaining about my BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :angry:

Ah, Tom! We're so glad you're back... :)

Gah...All the tables Bev and I have been up on, the ones I've been under...I forgot about being under that #!!*#!*@ ganache mobile. Susie's washing Scott's hair,...well, 'tis a might better than washing Mr. Simmons'. Didn't you volunteer for that one, Bev? :o

Okay, well, Susie, you may have configured smelly flowcharts, but you must remember that I mastered visual mapping of athletic T-bagging. And I presented such while up on a table!

Witness Protection Program....jeez...what gave me away? Canada's been a very welcoming new start for me... :lol:

You painted sheets? Like bed sheets? What kind of paint did you use? That sounds like fun.

Acrylic. It was for sets in the play, but i still managed to get some in my hair... go figure...

Hehehe... cool. B)

^_^ <---- Thoughtful face?

:wacko: <---- Or maybe this is my thoughtful face!

I think I'm going to paint some sheets. Maybe next weekend.

I do believe I have had a bonafide case of brain fog today. The high point was when I was having an interior debate about... something... "Should I or shouldn't I, should I or shouldn't I...." ...and then realized I couldn't remember what I was trying to make a decision about.

      @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.
    • Scott Adams
      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.
    • Dawn Meyers
      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.
