Only 3 days till the wedding....I am off the next two days hoping to get everything done....

OMG! Well, we had just BETTER not see you on here, missy, or we'll send the corn-stalk-wielding Bev your way (she's closer than my neighborhood shuffler)..... :P

Janet, how on earth can you precisely recall when you joined this madness?!...or muster the energy to look it up? Gad, I'm lucky if I can remember when I last ate... :rolleyes:

Remember, Janet is gooder with NUMBERS. ;)

Well, of course I remember that life altering day when I joined this thread . . . :lol::lol: No, at some point I just remembered that when we got to 300 I would have been around for half the time - then went back to find out exactly - that would be the detail orientatednous in me.

It has nothing to do with gluten and everything to do with quantity. Oh, did I tell you all that starting tomorrow, I'm going on a diet? I want to loose 25 pounds before I meet Bev when I visit my friend in Boxford on spring break. OK - don't know for sure on that last part, but we are working on it - I've got a kennel so we're going somewhere!

Right now we are trying to figure out a seating chart for the reception...I would rather be anywhere but here. I am at my wits end.

I have an insatiable appetite that I never had before removing gluten. WTH is with that?????????? Makes me FURIOUS............. :angry:

That's what you call Festival Seating . . . and it does sound like a festival . . . however, that did cause problems for The Who!! OK - so Amanda, don't sit me with the Olsen twins or that freaky Cat Women lady or the Hoff - he should get his own table - nobody should have to sit with him.

OK, I have a 6 year old daughter so I know what a Cheetah Girl is? What I want to know is why you want to know what a Cheetah Girl is?

We also needed the green guy emoticon tonight!!! One of my children barfed about a half liter of chocolate vomit-- and that was before we went trick-or-treating. I am a BAD mother. :ph34r: But then he felt much better. Fun was had by all today!

Good morning, all my chocolate-filled friends!

Ugh. Man, I'm off to the gym. (GREEN GUY HERE!...TWICE! NO, THRICE!)

I am getting ready to start a load of laundry and start cleaning. Anyone want to help?

Darn210 Enthusiast

Oh, Oh, Oh, Where's Nikkie? It's the 1st. It's time for slappin' and kickin' and stuff!! Where's my little brother when I need him?

Susie, you MUST change your avatar!!! The newbies are going to think that's what you look like and be frightened away!!!

Amanda!!!! If I wanted to clean and do laundry, I have plenty of that to do here!!! You might have better luck with Patti, at least with the laundry part.

Candy hangover here . . . must go have a "hair of the dog" baby ruth.

Happy November Fool's Day!

I'd say Patti is your best bet for help w/ laundry - and only 2 hrs away! Why, she could come to your house and do it for you! When she's done there she can stop over at my house (her unpacking can wait ;) ) I'll make peanut blossoms, and I'll even share my stash of Mike 'n Ikes with her...(That's candy, NOT people chained up in my basement).

I've got nuthin' today. I'm sort of depressed since RG passed...a little lonely perhaps...as much of a pest that he could be I sort of enjoyed the Kato -v- Clouseau thing we had going on...

I thought you might be taking it kind of hard. I knew he was a special friend. Give yourself some time, enjoy your memories, but leave yourself open to finding and establishing new friends . . . I read in an article that Wayne Newton was a good friend of RG's. Maybe you two could spend some time together, I'm sure he's in mourning also and could use a hug.

Gotta go . . . I actually have a paying gig this morning.

Richard I was thinking about you last Friday. My mom and I were in Johnson City shopping for a few things.

...ah, yes...I fear a trip to Vestal is in the near future...Perhaps i can convince the wife to drop me at the hobby shop whilst she tries on every pair of shoes within the city limits :o

There's nothing quie a frustrating for a male as waiting for the alpha female to finish in the dressing room. ESPECIALLY if there is not a comfy chair in the vicinity. UGH!

Ah-HA! THAT's IT! Susie's zombie man - he must have been subjected to the dressing room treatment and tried to commit Hara-kiri on his pocket knife. His attempt obviously failed, and now his wife refuses to take him with her when she shops - in the afternoon. After she leaves the house he wanders the streets in search of male companionship - someone to drink a beer and watch ultimate fighting with...alas the wife has taken all but his hospital scrubs from him, so he is doomed to wander about as a freak with little hope of being befriended...Susan, maybe you could leave a note (in sidewalk chalk) directing him to your bush-barfing neighbors house for a little companionship? :unsure: It's really the only humane thing to do :huh:

Hi Meredith . . . I'm going to assume that's your name since Susie called you that and you didn't correct her . . . of course you don't want to make Susie angry . . . don't disagree with Susie . . . Oh, no, wait that's Bev. She's the one that will come after you with a cornstalk!! Of course, who knows what that poor man did to Susie and now he walks around the neighborhood with no shirt and an abdominal wound.

Oh no.........SusieQ's Iroquois skull crusher is MUCH more dangerous than my wimpy cornstalk!!!!!!!!!!

Speaking of Susie.......HIDEOUS avatar :ph34r: :ph34r:

Well, ahem, Meredith/Mango goes WAY back, to the crazy days of Rachelville. Um, BTW that is really where all the craziness started.......Richard moved our town to here - where we NEVER get in trouble any more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BRAH-VOE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Amen on that town move!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! mango/Meredith can run with the best of us! MO HOO AHHH HAA HAA!!!!!

Alex- most excellent top five reasons. And YES- I DID have Reese's peanut butter cups for dinner last night (well, I had risotto too) :D

I want to loose 25 pounds before I meet Bev when I visit my friend in Boxford on spring break. OK - don't know for sure on that last part, but we are working on it - I've got a kennel so we're going somewhere!

Wait- WHAT???????????????? Yes, come visit!!!!! BIG PARTY WE SHALL HAVE!!!!!!

Oh Sarah- Chocolate barf????????? POOPY COW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Candy hangover here . . . must go have a "hair of the dog" baby ruth.

RICHARD?RICHARD? Is that REALLY you in the avatar??????? My God- he shows his face. There will be manic panic as everyone rushes to gaze upon our king!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Amanda- I am so EXCITED for you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :wub: :wub:

This is usually followed by a stampede and general chaos, hence my hesitance to post a photo.

OMG!!!!

I'm back from being plunged into an :unsure: internetLESS abyss.......It was awful and I don't want to talk about it.....

SOOOO (A little tardy)

Pinch, punch, first day of the month!!!!!!

SO much has happened.....RG has passed away :( (he's the one WITH the glasses right Richard?? :unsure::lol: )

Bev + Emily are dirty scorpions :lol: (who's suprised???...not I!!)

Susie's nekkid coeliac/gunshot wound wandering man intrigues moi. Perhaps he shot himself in the gut...not realising the 'cure' is diet :huh::lol:

Got meself some NEW friends :D (you know who you are!)

AND!! (surely not)

2 DAYS UNTIL THE WEDDING?!?!?! :o:o:o:o

Pull your finger out people !!! ...there's much to be done .......back to braiding the Yeti........

elye Community Regular

Oh....so...that isn't Susie in her avatar?

Speaking of avatars--I'm always so amused at how completely inaccurate my mental picture is of a person when I've never seen them. Richard, you are NOTHING like I pictured you. I've been seeing a big guy (like, linebacker-type), fair hair, regular features, perhaps a beard now that I think of it...I'm always way off. I pictured our World Vision sponsored child (from Bolivia, eight year-old boy) as little, skinny, olive skin, black longish hair. We finally got a pic of him. Heavy, light hair and skin...looks fairly affluent, actually. :huh: Hmmmmmm...

good morning and Pinch Punch slaps to you all................... :P

avatar changed. Limping Weasel. harrumph. I hate our vet, BTW, gotta find a new one (the surgery - totally unnecessary and in fact you CAN do a needle asprirate or biopsy on tumoUrs/lumps JUST AS I THOUGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BAH!!!!!!!!!!!!! :angry:

oops - so sorry to start off the first day of the month w/ free-flowing rage. :ph34r:

Janet - a candy hangover. OMG. I ahve an ersatz blue-coloUred ice cream hangover. ugh. It was really hard to hand out the ice cream, so I just ate it. :huh:

RICHARD! We are so sorry for your loss. Sending Wayne Newton STAT - he's coming right after the phuneral.

and THERE you are in your AV! methinks he looks like.....Joey Fatone? someone? I can't QUITE put my finger on it......................

:o RICHARD - you may be ONTO somethign.......

I'll get the sidewalk chalk out tout suite - - direct him to barfing neighboUr - I think they in fact live on same street.....BRILLIANT idea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But I do think Nikki's theory, the stabbing of his own gut, not quite realizing that treatment for cOeliac is removal of gluten, instead of the stabbing of one's own spleen......is actually the CORRECT answer. :lol: Nevertheless, I'll direct him to my vomitous friend's house anyway. ;)

BEVVY - did you crumble up the Reese's IN the risotto? :lol:

OMG!!!!

I'm back from being plunged into an internetLESS abyss.......It was awful and I don't want to talk about it.....

NICOLA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Welcome back! don't worry, we will hold you, we know you were scared.............................

OMG look what showed up on my MSN page this morning:

Open Original Shared Link

EEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (insert green emoticon)

So I guess LANCE is now coming to our wedding parade bacchanalia. But then....who will Yeti have for his date? :huh:

So I read the head line and thought Eeewwww . . . and then got three lines in and they actually say in the artical:

(Go on, say it, we'll wait: Ew.)

So I guess it's a universal response.

The yeti can go with Mary Kate . . . she just needs to borrow Ashley's hairy coat.

      Thank you so much for your response kitty that is helpful to hold in mind. I am also doing a review on lived experiences of coeliac disease so your blog would be incredibly valuable for me to review, please can I have the link to it?
    • knitty kitty
      @Shining My Light, Yes, celiac is spelled differently in Great Britain.  Yes, please do consider us as part of your support circle.   I had a serious Vitamin D deficiency, too.  I learned Vitamin D acts as a hormone when at levels between 78-100 nmol/L.  Mine was in the single digits.  I had been in declining health for years without answers.  I had developed hormone problems and clinical depression among other symptoms.  I corrected my Vitamin D deficiency with high doses to get my level up quickly.  Yes, it's safe.  Here's some studies done on high dose Vitamin D. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34737019/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39125420/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35470105/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30611908/ My Vitamin D deficiency was just the tip of the deficiency iceberg.  I was deficient in the B vitamins, too.  Celiac Malabsorption affects all the vitamins and minerals, not just one.  Here are some articles about how the B vitamins and even Vitamin D help lower anxiety... https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33848753/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35156551/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35851507/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35851507/ https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/

      @trents I’m pretty sure what I’m left with when separating celiac to other causes is my 10% being a virus. The one I had about 3 weeks before taking this TTG test. Everything I’ve read says type 1 diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, hepatitis and some viruses are what could cause the elevation. The other blood tests I had I can compare things against.  I’m going to give your article a thorough read. My support in my circle is very small at the moment.  @knitty kitty I think before EGD I would like to do the DNA test. I’m going to start keeping a better journal also.  I’ve read a crazy amount of these “articles” - these two I’ve not seen. Some articles spell celiac differently. Thank you for sharing! I’m gonna dive into those.   I started seeing the functional medicine doctors from fluctuations in my hormones and major anxiety. Recently I realize it’s mostly health anxiety also so this is more challenging to depict real from imaginary thus all the research and the back and forth. I know anxiety to be a common symptom in perimenopause. I’ve fought it my whole life however. Likely due to lots of different trauma but seeing her was my last ditch effort to try something to avoid SSRIs, HRT, etc. She told me not to blame everything on my hormones when there could be an underlying problem, so she ran some tests to see if anything stood out. The TGG tests stood out.  I do find it very interesting now that I think about it that I don’t desire bread, pasta and pizza. Sometimes yes, but mostly no. I guess I didn’t give that much thought. Also didn’t realize that those foods do contain more gluten than the tortillas and cake/baked goods. About 3 months ago I started ordering meal kits to make dinner easier. I went back over the menus that I picked. I have probably had bread and pasta a hand full of times over the last couple months prior to having that blood test. We used to get pizza every Friday and stopped doing that also. I’m all fairness about 2 months leading up to these blood tests I had less gluten containing foods than I thought.    I’ve been praying for wisdom. Thankful to find some counsel from people who I believe have dove harder into this than most doctors have. Thanks for all the advice. It’s appreciated more than you know. 💕

      @knitty kitty My whole family has migraines and I started getting them at age 19, so I'm not sure mine are related to gluten, although I do feel like obviously the more inflamed my whole system is, the more likely I am to suffer from more of these things.
    • knitty kitty
      @Alibu, Just wanted to add... Migraines can be caused by thiamine insufficiency.  I used to have them, regularly, but haven't since supplementing with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and Magnesium Threonate.  These forms get into the brain easily and really improve migraines.  I do still get Ophthalmic migraines which are triggered by computer screens.  It's permanent damage from nutritional deficiencies.  An Erythrocyte Transketolace test is a more accurate test for sufficient thiamine. Keep us posted on your progress!
