I don't think there are any mens room groups....

I don't think mens stay in there long enuphph to get to know each other that well. Perhaps they are even a bit paranoid :unsure: about getting to know someone in the mens room???

Men are so weird.

Coming soon to a neighborhood near you -

Lots of snow! Gusting winds! 6 foot snow drifts! Sub- zero temperatures!

I will preview it for you people east of me and send it on.

We are getting mist right now. My driveway has some girls in little skirts twirling around. It's right at about 30 and the roads in the southern part of KC are ok now. A bit north like St Joe, it's a real icy mess ( about 1 hr drive north). Every station has slightly different time frames for the snaugh. Some as early as 10pm some not until tomorrow at 9 am. Guaranteed to mess up school again!

Loey Rising Star

But Loey.... We changed the topic! No more barfing allowed! We are coughing now! :P

Luckily it was a 24 hour thing. Now I need to catch up with the coughing ohmy.gif

So I just got off with the disability office for my interview. Talk about harrowing!!!! I was flustered the entire time and somehow my dates of jobs didn't jive. I couldn't find doctor's phone numbers. It will be a miracle if I don't get rejected. I much rather get well and get a job (as if there are any).

Thanks to all my psillies for making me smile after all of that. You are the best!!!!

Fortunately you are easily amused by coughing and barphing....

And you pholks are anticipatin' driving in that stuph?? :blink:

Ummm . . . :unsure: . . . not me . . . actually, the school decides what we will do. If this all really happens (cuz sometimes it doesn't actually happen), I predict we'll be out of school at least two days.

Lo: 22° Breezy. Freezing rain or chance of light sleet... Then snow and freezing rain or chance of light sleet after midnight. Precipitation may be heavy at times. Heavy snow accumulations. Significant ice accumulation possible. Nearly steady temperatures in the lower 20s. East winds 15 to 20 mph decreasing to 5 to 15 mph after midnight. Chance of precipitation near 100 percent.

((((((((YAWN)))))))).. . . . . .. . . . . ..Sounds like a regular daily winter forecast for me.. .. . ... . . . <_<

We are supposed to get this messy storm on Wednesday.. . . . ..perhaps a foot of psnaough - - pffffffffft, a mere pittance. . .....

:rolleyes:

Things have been unseasonably warm up in Whitehorse, the starting point of the Yukon Quest. It has been averaging only -24 during the day, and ideal sled conditions are -32 to -45. They are all simply praying for colder weather.

If you can imagine. :huh:

Tis good news!

Hopefully the rest of him will follow soon.

It's 30 degrees and raining...Snow doesn't bother me (other than our neighborhood's cheapass policy of waiting for the city to come through to clear the streets which can take up to 72 hours). I don't have a problem driving in/on snow. Ice is a different story. I'll just stay home thank you veddy much.

Glad M's butt is safe . . . do you bubble wrap it to keep it so?

Patti!!! Tis time to wean yerself off that coff!! . . . I've still got mine, mind you, but it doesn't keep me up at night and it is getting ever-so-slighty bettah each day.

Awwwww come on Jyannut! Don't sugar-coat it! We are expecting downed power lines. Streets slicker'n snot. All the generators are sold out, as well, I'm sure, as all bread and milk from here to Canada. :o

Don't think I have strep, as it has migrated to my sinuses.

BTW......I take the blame for this storm. Happens evertime I have my winter dentist appointment. It's scheduled for Wed.

Hmmmmm . . . Lisa's to blame, sinus infection, snotty streets . . . that's one helluva snot producing infection. You're taken down the whole midwest!

Actually . . . who's flipped over or about to flip over?? That's who I'm blamin'!!!

      I agree with @trents that the IgA you listed sounds like a total IgA, not celiac-specific, if 114 is normal.  Were any other antibody tests run?  
    • Russ H
      What you describe is seronegative villous atrophy (negative antibody tests but positive biopsy). It is uncommon in coeliac disease, and there are other causes, but the most common cause is coeliac disease. I would pursue this with your healthcare provider if possible. Based on clinical history, test results and possible genetic testing for susceptibility to coeliac disease it should be possible to give a diagnosis. There is a bit more here: Seronegative coeliac disease

      If you are still eating gluten you could get a celiac disease blood panel done, but I agree with @trents and the gold standard for diagnosing celiac disease would be your endoscopy results. Is it possible they did do a celiac disease panel before your biopsy? This would be the normal chain of events. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

      Actually, it would be more correct to say that the genetic potential to develop celiac disease is passed down from parents to children. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% of the general population actually do. But it is also true that the offspring of those who do have active celiac disease are at a considerably higher risk of developing active celiac disease than those of parents who have the genes but don't develop the disease. Some recent, larger studies put the risk at near 50% for the first degree relatives of those who have active celiac disease.

      Hello everyone! Been a while since I posted. The past few moths have been the best by for recovery for myself. I have been the least bloated I have ever been, my constant throat clearing is almost gone, I have stopped almost all medication I was prevously taking (was taking vyvanse for adhd, pristiq for anxiety,fomotadine/blexten for histamine blockers and singulair). Only thing I take now is Tecta. I also no longer get any rashes after eating. Things are going very well. Most success came actually once I upped my B12 daily dose to 5,000 mcg. I do have one thing I am un able to figure out and want to see if anyone else has this issue or has experience working around it. Ever since I was born I have always had a issue getting fruits and veggies down. No matter how hard I tried, it would always result in gagging or throwing up. Always just thought I was a picky eater. Now that my stomach and system has healed enough that I can feel when something is off almost istantly, I notice that after eating most fruits (sometimes I am ok with bananas) and veggies, my stomach instantly starts burning and my heart starts to pound and I get really anxious as if my body doesnt know what to do with what just enetered it. So I am thinking now that this is what probably was going on when I was born and my body started rejecting it before which caused this weird sensory issue with it causing the gagging. Hoping someone has some exprience with this as well because I would love to be able to enjoy a nice fruit smoothie once in a while haha. Thanks everyone!
