Susie!! Robert Duvall? Ewwwwwwwwww! Anybody else react to him that way, or am I alone in my he's-a-great-actor-but-NO-panting-going-on reaction? Tell you what, you can sit beside Mr. Duvall. I think I'd even rather sit beside the Dalai, m'self... :lol:

While I would not say Ewwwwwwwww! I concur with the NO-panting. I would use Ewwwwwww! on MJ and DH.

LET THE YETI BREED!!!! ;)

Hear! Hear! They are, after all, almost extinct!

Darn210 Enthusiast
Yeti can bring a date, anyone got any suggestions as of who we can fix him up with?

Open Original Shared Link is who the Yeti has selected for his date - for obvious reasons.

Excellent, Tom!!

We are just talking about a DATE for our yeti, but who knows how fast a mover he is, patricularly at a wedding? So I say he can dance the first dance with Amanda and she'll let him Lead, he can drive our limo and we'll let him Speed, he'll be first at the buffet and we'll Let him Feed, and if an angry Chuck Norris shows up, we'll be Lettin' him Bleed... :o:lol:

Well, I will get us the stretch hummer than, and it comes with a hottub on the roof. Yeti can bring a date, anyone got any suggestions as of who we can fix him up with?

shhhhhhh!

You do NOT want to see Chuck in a jealous rage!

Good point - I suppose the nearly extinct aspect doesn't exactly make one think "Playah!".

Then again, perhaps in desperation to carry on the species, he's been boning up, so to speak.

OH!!! My contacts in Homeland Security have just told me his recent Library checkouts DO include "How to Make Her Yours in 5 Easy Steps".

So I say he can dance the first dance with Amanda and she'll let him Lead, he can drive our limo and we'll let him Speed, he'll be first at the buffet and we'll Let him Feed, and if an angry Chuck Norris shows up, we'll be Lettin' him Bleed... :o:lol:

OMG :lol: way to run w/ it Emily!!

<ya we all neeeeeeed, someone . .we can buh-leeed on> (Stones "Let It Bleed" - WHAT an album!!!!)

I am NOT riding with Michael Jackson. :ph34r: Amanda, maybe you just need two limos. ;)

Now now, Sarah, you are neither a male, nor under 10, so what have you got to fear? :lol:

Once again . . . Sarah shows up after Susie's cute guy list. :lol::lol: That's just freaky how that works! :lol:

OMG yes she does

I was ONLY going to allow single gals to ride on my CB float - but I'll make an exception for Sarah. ;)

Susie!! Robert Duvall? Ewwwwwwwwww! Anybody else react to him that way, or am I alone in my he's-a-great-actor-but-NO-panting-going-on reaction? Tell you what, you can sit beside Mr. Duvall. I think I'd even rather sit beside the Dalai, m'self... :lol:

OMG - WHAT???? :o Well, maybe it IS just me? I have a huge crush on him. :lol: I mean, there ARE guys that could make me pant harder.....but he's just the solid, masculine, swaggering guy I want for the long haul. :lol: (okay well maybe the Duvall of years past....)

Britney :lol:

Yes, Janet - that IS the yeti's date!!!! Perfect.

Fabulous cookies! reminds me of the ones I used to do....I was rather famous for them also. :( Christmas and easter, hand-painted, works of art.

uh-oh, thunderstorm warning (YAY!!!!!!!!! :rolleyes:), I must get the dingos out for a slow and tentative walk (despite veterinarian's orders to wait 10 days - Annie is driving me mad w/ her begging adn imploring - don't worry - no off-leash stuff, folks)

AMANDA!!! Yes, Hummers w/ hot tubs for us. :D Hell, get 6 or 7 of them!!!!!!!!!!!!

and WHERE is RICHARD! Did he fall off a ladder and bonk his noggin??????????? :huh:

Mtndog Collaborator
So where are all our Sillies today? I feel lonely....do I smell or something? I took a shower today you know :)

Oh darn- I neglected my courtly duties. I'm sorry- bad day. My hips hurt so bad you would have thought I spent the last 24 hours hula-hooping :( That's the weird thing about Lyme- everything moves around. UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I see that SusieQ had the same day....my hubby Kurt's got it too. What the heck?

Amanda- 6 days!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WAHOO! You're gonna love it.....your own wedding is fun. I danced my butt off!

Can we have a bachelorette party in your stretch Navigator????????? Bet there's a hot tub in THAT! We have to leave the yeti home for the bachelorette party though cause you KNOW they'll charge us extra for cleaning, and with a few exceptions- like the good looking guys- Bachelorette parties are for girls!. But I think Benicio and Ray Fiennes will make a perfectly cozy place for me to lay across so I don't take up too much room. Benicio can rub my feet and Ray can rub my temples and feed me grapes. :D

Tom- Nice pod ;)

Janet- Don't you know the SECRET CODE? You may NOT post in any other threads....this is a cult :P

Bev, it's funny you mention this. I was just thinking yesterday (y'know, deep birthday thoughts, where's-the-time-going, guilt, regrets, all those horrid yearly pinings as the hourglass slowly runs in the background), that I have been SO lax in my responibilities of helping the newbies who get on here, depressed and frightened. Our Cult of Madness makes it very tough to visit anywhere else, particularly with a straight face. I find myself about to post the funniest responses to very serious questions. "Help! My stomach just stays SO bloated!" or "What can I tell my mother-in-law when she brings over her homemade scones?", or "check these pics of my backside out...is this DH?" These things resonate, now, with an inane hilarity, and before my life in Sillyland I was easily able to empathise and advise. WHAT"S HAPPENING TO US ALL? I just smirk at almost everything now....

...It's fantastic!.... B):lol::lol:

:o OMG! she posted in another thread? she left our strict environs?????????????? She ventured OUTSIDE THE CULT???????

we must send out a posse. ;) Punishment to be determined later.

Bev - hula-hooping all day.....ugh. We will send over our team of professional actors - oops I mean, masseurs. ;)

AND OMG - EMILY - - :lol: :lol: :lol:

yes - what HAS happened to us, in our Cult of Madness??? mwooo-hoooo-hoooo-haa-haaa-haaa

(fantastic - yes - sometimes my only laughs of the day - parole reports aren't taht funny :blink:)

So I have the fleet all lined up for us. I would also like if we could bring Bon Jovi with us. I think he is gorgeous and he sings great too.

elye Community Regular

Okay, I am fulfiling my duties right this minute...I am going to help some sad soul right now. I'm breaking free of the strict Silly environs for some serious discussion with troubled people on another thread...some reaching out. Here I go, now...no flip play on words, clever innuendo, just words of support. And NO LAUGHING....

:rolleyes:

Have you seen this one? Almost as funny as the monkey on the log.

This may be off topic . . . although I don't think we have a topic. OK, so maybe this is just out of the blue . . . I have heard nothing about the green guy emoticon!! And I also wanted to point out that only subscribers to the silly thread posted. I will admit that it was also a little test to see if we had any other sillies out there that needed to be guided to this most delightful and delusional outlet.

Went fishin' and got nuttin'. <_<

And for the record (because it was questioned) I didn't get the new feature until I had made 501.

Now, spill the beans . . . secret handshake? . . . password? . . . matching T-shirts?

Awww, poopy cow, I wanna be in the 501 Club! :angry:

Poopy Cow is the cuss word I tell my kids to use. ;)

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.
    • trents
      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts. 
    • Scott Adams
      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
    • Scott Adams
      Seven months can still be early in celiac healing, especially if you were mostly asymptomatic to begin with—symptoms like low iron, vitamin D deficiency, nail changes, and hair issues often take much longer to improve because the gut needs time to recover before absorption normalizes. A tTG-IgA of 69 is not “low” in terms of immune activity, and it can take 12–24 months (sometimes longer) for antibodies and the intestinal lining to fully heal, particularly in teens and young adults. Eating gluten again to “test” things isn’t recommended and won’t give you clear answers—it’s far more likely to cause harm than clarity. Weight not changing is also very common in celiac and doesn’t rule anything out. Please know that your frustration and sadness matter; this adjustment is hard, and feeling stuck can really affect mental health. You deserve support, and if you can, reaching out to a GI dietitian or mental health professional familiar with chronic illness could really help you through this phase. This study indicates that a majority of celiacs don't recover until 5 years after diagnosis and starting a gluten-free diet: Mucosal recovery and mortality in adults with celiac disease after treatment with a gluten-free diet However, it's also possible that what the study really shows is the difficulty in maintaining a 100% gluten-free diet. I suspect that if you looked closely at the diets of those who did not recover within 2 years might be that their diets were not 100% gluten-free. Perhaps they ate out more often, or didn't understand all of the hidden ingredients where gluten can hide. Either way, it shows how difficult recovery from celiac disease can be for most people.
