How do you stuff a quinoa????? :huh:

Do you REALLY want to know? I tried explainingit to SusieQ (Q does not stand for Queen of all things Quinoa), and if my memory serves me, the various flow charts and power point presentations outlining the 145 simple steps (several of which involve consuming alcohol) resulted in befuddlement and poo-pooing (not to be confused with poo-ooping :o ) So I ask you again, do you REALLY WANT TO KNOW?? :huh::o

Okay, I"ll start:

I want a single, really hot, erudite, altruistic, yummy-smelling and manly VETERINARIAN, with a cabin at elevation, near a lake or stream.

:rolleyes: YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm goign to write to Ellen Degeneres and see if she can do a national search for the girls and me.

Ah,....he's over at mine....sharing slow cooker tips and recipes (hubby bought one half price - what a coup!)

We (hubby, me, yeti) are just going through the info booklet now.

Good luck with the 700 gene thingy..wotsits

:lol: she said wotsits

Nikki - - phew. Glad Yeti is safely tucked over there with you and your'n. Does he sleep in the cupboard under the stairs, with those nice people in there?

This is something up with which I will not put!

Oh YES, yes you will, and you will LEARN TO LIKE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Stay strong and rally for the sillies,

WE MUST ALL BE STRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG!

I took Ezra back to the doc again, and now she thinks he has reflux. Ok, I was waiting for that one, no big surprise. The surprise came when I was at the pharmacy to pick up his Zantac, and the children's syrup is $200 per month. :(

I HATE DRUG COMPANIES!!!!!

You can get adult Zantac at Walmart for $4 per month's supply!!! And by the way, the adult version is 10x the mg!

I am so pissed right now. And kind of want to barf.

I don't know what to hope for- that it helps him and he finally stops coughing...

Or that it doesn't help him, because I CANNOT afford it anyway.

Ugh.

EXCELLENT preposition placement, Susie!! :):):)

jerseyangel Proficient

Oh jeeze Sarah--that's absolutely ridiculas....they shouldn't be allowed to jack the price like that :angry:

Is there any way you could give him a 1/10 dose of the adult med? I don't know--just thinking out loud. I don't even know if it comes in a liquid.

The least they could have done is give you a sample to see if it's gonna help him before you fill the Rx.

:( Can you get teh adult version, and water it down severely? Would your doctor consider writing a prescription for that and instructing you on how to dilute or reduce it?

(um, this coming from a grown woman with no children :huh: )

Why thank you. ;)

Um, ahem, in case you didn't know, and I'm sure you did not, about 60 of the units in my worthless Liberal Studies major are in English/foreign languages/linguistics/journalism...I think my minor is Romance Languages. :blink:

And for WHAT, I ask you??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? :lol: SO I can type parole reports in my pee-jays, but more importantly - -

WRITE TO MY SILLIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:D

About, breaking up and adult dose, I'm not sure yet. When I talked to the pharmacist about it, she said that the children's zantac was the only medication of it's type that comes in a syrup. I don't think breaking a tablet into that many pieces would work. Even if I could do it, they wouldn't be uniform size.

Now, I do think I could break one into 1/4s. So if it does work well for him, maybe we can find an adult tablet that is small enough mg's to break into 1/4s.

For now, I just had them give me a 1 week supply to see how it goes.

sigh... Thank you guys SO MUCH for letting me vent.

Indeed he does....it is a tight squeeze though (have to shoe horn him in)....perhaps there'll be more room once the christmas tree comes out....but yeah....getting on famously with the little people :D

One of my sons used to have to have a drug that only come in (really small) adult tablet form.

I used to crush the whole tab - add water to it - then split it into four - just a thought but he's only a wee thing so probably not practical <_<

There's a possibility. May not be the most practical, but it's more feasible than $200 a month right now!

Susie, I have to ask . . . what were you trying to sell in your latest (rejected ebay pic) avatar? I see no signs of any merchandise what-so-evah.

I have to tell you all . . . I have been enjoying the drama that has unfolded because of the changes. It's starting to slow down now . . . somebody needs to go poke that owie!

Ah! I smells a job for the CLOSET ORGANIZER CONSULTANT LADY! I'm certain there is none of this shoe horning business going on in HER closets. :o Nikki, Patti can give you her contact particulars, but be certain to mention when you call her that there is a massive, apocryphal beast in seashells that will need placement. Always best to warn individuals of our yeti ahead of time, I've found. I'm sure, if she's a true professional, she will see it as a healthy challenge...!

:lol:

:lol: Poke the WHAT??????? :unsure: ....is that like pulling yer finger out????????????

Emily said 'Apocrphal'......no idea what it means BUT it sounds good AND i'm pretty sure it pertains to 'yeti' and 'yeti like' creatures.

...and I would LOVE Patti's closet lady !!!!!! :lol:

:lol::lol:

Poke the Owie is a phrase I got off of another thread. I like it so I'm keepin' it. It means that everys so often you have to see if something (like an owie) still feels bad so you need to test it (say by poking).

Sarah knows 'cause she posted on that thread . . . but I believe she's posted on just about every thread. (Have you noticed, she's getting reeaaaalllllly close to 501!)

Now I have to ask, is pulling yer finger out the Brittish version of pull my finger? :huh::lol:

      what Benfotiamine should I take as Life Extension contains both Ben and TTFD.
    • knitty kitty
      I take both Benfotiamine and TTFD.   You might want to start with the Benfotiamine for a few days and then add in the TTFD.   You can look for NeuroMag (Magnesium Threonate).  A magnesium glycinate is fine, too.  Doctor's Best is a good brand.  Don't take more than 300mg total per day of magnesium or it may have a laxative effect.   Be sure to take the B Complex.  The Benfotiamine and TTFD will need the other B vitamins.  
    • xxnonamexx
      Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine has 100MG of Ben and 25 of Thia..... Do you think this is the one I should take or Objective Nutrients Thiamax (TTFD) which has 100MG Thiamine. How much magnesium should I look for? I take the womens 50+ multivitamin since consumerlabs stated and tested that it has the right amount of vitamins and not too much for men and doesn't have BHT which has shown to cause liver cancer in animals. I was never big with multivitamins as well as doctors I just read when I was first going gluten free to take a multi but I think I will stop them and work on trying the super B Thia and Ben, Mag.

      Hi all I’ve been celiac for 4 years now, I’ve done pretty well to avoid it thus far. Last night I took the wrong pizza out of the freezer and ate the whole lot!! The non gluten and gluten pizza boxes are both very similar.   2 hours later I was throwing up violently on my hands and knees over the loo.  .horrendous stomach pains,  My hair was wet from sweat every part of my body was wet. What an awful experience, just had a bad headache today  fortunately.    Is their any products/pills anyone takes if they have realised they have just been glutened to make the symptoms a little less worse.  thanks  
    • knitty kitty
      Yes, do take your B Complex with Benfotiamine or Thiamax.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins in the B Complex to make energy and enzymes, so best to take them together earlier in your day.  Taking them too close to bedtime can keep you too energetic to go to sleep.   The Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine is Benfotiamine and Thiamine Hydrochloride, another form of thiamine the body likes.  The Thiamine HCl just helps the Benfotiamine work better.   Read the label for how many milligrams are in them.  The Mega Benfotiamine is 250 mgs.  Another Benfothiamine has 100 mgs.  You might want to start with the 100 mg.    I like to take Thiamax in the morning with a B Complex at breakfast.  I take the Benfotiamine with another meal.  You can take your multivitamin with Benfotiamine at lunch.   Add a magnesium supplement, too.  Thiamine needs magnesium to make some important enzymes.  Life Extension makes Neuro-Mag, Magnesium Threonate, which is really beneficial.  (Don't take Magnesium Oxide.  It's not absorbed well, instead it pulls water into the digestive tract and is used to relieve constipation.)  I'm not a big fan of multivitamins because they don't always dissolve well in our intestines, and give people a false sense of security.  (There's videos on how to test how well your multivitamin dissolves.).  Multivitamins don't prevent deficiencies and aren't strong enough to correct deficiencies.   I'm happy you are trying Thiamax and Benfotiamine!  Keep us posted on your progress!  I'm happy to answer any questions you may have.
