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

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:

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).

      It's possible he's in the early stages of celiac disease, and it has been caught before villi damage. The blood test results so far do indicate possible celiac disease, as well as his strong family history of celiac disease. If his symptoms get better on a gluten-free diet this would be another strong indication. Personally I think it's definitely better to proceed on the safe side and go gluten-free, rather than to risk severe villi damage and all that comes with it.

      For some context: I have type 1 diabetes (T1D) (since 11 years) and celiac disease(since 4 years) For about a year now, I’ve been experiencing permanent floating and undigested stools. I’ve had a pancreas elastase test done. The first result was extremely low at 44, but a second test came back at 236. My doctor said that since one result is normal, it rules out pancreatic insufficiency because, according to them, elastase levels would always stay low if that were the issue. However, could the 236 have been a false result? My doctor also thinks I don’t have pancreatic insufficiency because I’m able to gain weight. I also get hgh injections as my bone age is younger than my real age, this also contributes to weight gain, so I dont know if weight gain can rule out malabsorption. But maybe if I had real malabsorption I wouldnt gain any weight even with hgh? For celiac, I’m on a gluten-free diet, but there might b small cross-contamination from things like pepper labeled as “may contain gluten.” or sausages which dont have gluten ingredient but say may contain. My doctor said that small amounts like this wouldn’t harm me and even mentioned that an occasional small exposure to gluten may not do much damage (which seems questionable since I thought even tiny amounts could be harmful). She also said that when Im older (Im m17) I could try eating small amounts of gluten and do antibody blood tests to see if I can tolerate small amounts or not. For reference, I’m asymptomatic when it comes to celiac, so I have no idea if I’ve been “glutened” or not. My first concerning celiac blood test was semi high IgA, then 3 months later we did a check up and my IgA was high so it was confirmed celiac. Since than I’ve had celiac antibody tests done yearly to see how my diet is going, and they’ve been negative, but I’ve heard those aren’t always reliable. I’ve never had a follow-up endoscopy to confirm healing. I also always kept eating „may contain gluten“ food. (I live in Germany so I dont know if „may contain gluten“ is as risky as in the usa but I suppose both are as risky) These stool issues started around the same time I was doing excessive heavy lifting at the gym. Could stress or lifting have triggered this, or is that less likely since the symptoms persist even after I stopped lifting? Occasionally, I’ll feel very mild stomach discomfort, but it’s rare and not severe. My doctor (also a dietist) said floating, undigested stools could still be “normal,” but that doesn’t seem realistic to me. Could this be impacting my vitamin or protein absorption? I also did a fructose intolerance breath test and had a high baseline of 20 ppm, but it never increased—only decreased over time. I fasted for 12 hours and didn’t eat fructose beforehand, but my stomach didn’t feel completely empty during the test. Could this mean the test was inaccurate? For lactose intolerance, I did the breath test but only fasted 10 hours and had eaten lactose prior because I wasn’t aware of the proper diet restrictions. My results were: 14, 12, 15, 25, 35, 40, 40 ppm—which would be considered positive. But given that I didn’t fast long enough or follow the right diet, could this result be unreliable? Has anyone else dealt with similar symptoms? What ended up being the cause for you? And sorry for the long text!

      The Docs' and NP haven't committed to Celiac determination yet but say go gluten-free diet because...  And I have with improved physical results - feeling better; overall functions better, and more energy.  Still 10 pounds down in weight but I still have BMI of ~23.  It's been just over a month now gluten-free diet.  I'm fortunate I get along with diary/milk well and most other foods. I wanted ask about this site's sponsor, gliadin X.  If this is legit, seems like a good product to keep on hand. Though it says it's only a safety for incidental gluten contact - not a substitue for gluten-free diet. What's your input on this? This may be sensitive subject since they're a sponsor. I've used resources here and other sites for information, gluten-free food/product lists. So thank you for all that support. That's it for now - Stay warm...  -2F this morning in Colorado!

      I did suffer with gastric symptoms before diagnosis, but got all sorts of weird and wacky symptoms after going gluten free.   Things got much better once my antibodies fell to normal levels, but it took years (please don't panic, many people's go to normal levels relatively quickly when following a gluten-free diet). Causes of the symptoms you mention that I also experienced were iron supplements, a temporary dairy intolerance (this is common in coeliacs and should pass when your gut heals properly), and eating oats, as mentioned above.  Other symptoms I got were musculoskeletal pain after diagnosis, but again, once my coeliac blood tests were normal, I had no more pain. I did notice patterns emerging in foods that I reacted to and learned to steer clear of them, then gradually reintroduced them when my gut healed, such as soya, pure oats and dairy products.    You might like to keep a food diary.

      Well the conflicting results continue as the biopsy has come back negative. 😵‍💫 Waiting to discuss further but I really don’t know what to think now? Eight biopsy’s were taken from duodenum which surely should be sufficient if it was coeliac?
