I am emerging from the tsunami drowned, gaping head wound, bloody staples, projectile vomiting a'la exorcist, pinning down a 5yo boy to keep him calm and gash free, 19 hours of OT in 24 hours world! It is my first day back to work in 2 weeks (besides the call day from Hell...)!! :rolleyes::P

I have read the last 10 pages, too much to individually comment on, but I shall say that I am sooooo happy to hear the good medical news, intrigued about the 3 vagina/forked dork marsupials, and I am also in need of boobs! :lol:

The hub is on his way out of town this weekend to have a 'boys weekend' up in the mountains somewhere. I am pretty sure I will be staying out of the ER ;) My hub, however, has just completed a bottle each of bourbon, vokda and rum to take with him. He may be the one ending up in the ER!

My dd went to a slumber party this weekend and learned to play Truth or Dare... One of the dares was to drink Pepsi straight out of the 2L bottle.... I am having high school flashbacks and panic attacks all at the same time! I'm going to have to talk to her about good decision making. Me thinks there is a fine line between talking to her and giving her idears :rolleyes:

Not sure what else to say. I shall tell a bit of a phunny story. So after the tsunami, son's gaping head wound, heart issue on the plane, son's vomiting-sending him back to the ER for a CT, blah, blah, blah... I had been holding up pretty well, no major breakdown, not much crying, I got to the airport anxious to get home, got in the wrong freakin line for security, made it ALL the way to the front of the line, passed my stuff thru the scanner, and the TSA agent walks over with my beach bag and asks if it's mine. Yes, I say. He asks if I have a jar of jam in the bag. Yes, I say (preface, I had been searching for this frickin jar of jam for 5 days, found it on the last morning and paid 10$ for it!!!). He says, you can't take that on the plane with you. I say, WHAT?! He says, You can check that suitcase there... I say, NO, I do NOT want to check my suitcase! The tears are starting to roll down my face and he's staring at me like, It's just a freakin jar of jam. Looks at me in the eyes as he DROPS the jar into the trash. Now I'm sobbing and now I have 3 TSA douschebags standing there staring at me fumble with my shoes and gather my stuff. My mother happened to be at the airport at the SAME time flying from Oahu to Maui, I ran to her like a 5yo bawling, she was bawling and my stepdad looked soooooo awkward and uncomfortable standing a few feet away and patting our backs :rolleyes: What people musta thought! To make matters worse, I went to rearrange some stuff in my bag and found 2 opened 6oz bottles of sunscreen that they didn't take away... But they took a security closed and sealed freaking jar of jam! :rolleyes::P

Glad to be home :D

Mygawd, Rah-shyellle..........:(:wub: What a time you've had! Those tears finally came.......SO glad it was with yer mom!

mushroom Proficient

My goodness, Rayshell, you do have such relaxing vacations :P Glad momma was there to hold your hand and kiss it and make it all bettah! Now if we can just get the job under control....

jerseyangel Proficient

Been thinking 'bout you, Rash....gosh what a time you've had--and I was wondering when you would let the tears come. So glad yer mom was there at that moment--and wow, that she was there in the airport was kinda amazing!

Hugs to you and wee M. :wub:

celiac-mommy Collaborator

Thanks :wub:. We're all fine. The vaca was actually pretty good if you edit out the drama. My goal was to sit on a different beach every day and that's exactly what I did! I am in love with Kailua and I want to move there yesterday! Sleepy little town, beautiful beach, perfect weather... Life seems so much simpler there. So relaxed. Maybe a bit too relaxed when it takes 20 minutes to get yer latte and there's only 1 person in front of you :rolleyes:

Max seems to be recovered. I don't know much about head trauma, so hopefully we don't have any lasting effects! He never had any neuro issues though, thank God!! I really think this all happened because I am too controlling and I take on way too much! This was God's way of telling me that my husband can handle more than I give him credit for and that it's ok to ask for help every once in a while!! ;)

I told the kids I was never leaving them again. Madeleine just suggested I take them with me next time.....duh! :lol:

Oh Rachelle, so good to have you back where you belong, but so sorry about your travails. Please take care of yourself. Damn them for absconding with your jam. They probably had it with biscuits and tea!!!!

Love & Hugs,

The shot was REALLY painful. Today I can sit up for shot periods of time. He said it would take 2-3 days to work. I pointed out another area i was having pain and he ordered a pelvic CT scan to make sure my hip is all right. It's funny that my spine is giving me more trouble than the celiac and might have been causing my pain all these months. So glad I changed GI's (plus new GI discovered the CLL).

Sending prayers that all my psilles are feeling well and surviving nature's wrath on us (we're due to get 4-5 inches and then flooding).

Hugs,

Loey

The scandal with the TSA used to be that they made young women take off thier underwire bras in the security line. Now they are absconding with young women's jam! Outrageous!

The boys have headed off in school vans to Chicago for the midwest regional. Can be watched on www.ilfrc.org We are team 2410 with silver cowboy hats. I will be flying up tomorrow. Could not ride for what would feel like 30 hours. :huh:

I know, tis ridiculous to leave me jamless yet I'm left with 12oz of sunscreen that I don't need here in Oregon! <_<

It was Lilikoi butter, which is the most amazing passionfruit jam I have ever tasted in my life. Eat it straight outta the jar!

I knew there had to be a name for names, just never thought about it. I am a double -ian, a Cantabrian - the province (also known as one-eyed Cantabrian :rolleyes: because of our fierce loyalty) and a Christchurchian (slightly broken :P ) - the city).

      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.
    • RMJ
      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

      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?
