Ah, ok. I use Firefox. Spellcheck generally gets on my nerves. Here's a perfect example- it accepts "specialer," but not "spellcheck."

OMG I use firefox also....it is annoying. underlines in red things that are wrong or suspect......such as CELIAC............... :lol:

oh my gaaaaaaaaawd! sillies I have found a new man for our parade. (where IS our parade?)

So........the news is on......and there's a man that just moved here.......and here's what happened - his skin is BLUE. Actually, seriously, blue-tinged. :blink: So......he was living in Bend, Oregon, but apparently people were too freaked out by his blue skin.....so he's moved (oh, this should go over really well in Madera - ha ha ha ha). He did say that some women like it. So.....the reason his skin is blue is because of this SILVER "tincture" antibiotic concoction he drinks every day. WTH? So......his hair and beard are silver.......but right around his mouth, the hair of the mustache/beard is rather distinctly ORANGE-tinged - sort of gumball orange. And.........his TEETH are also exactly the same coloUr - this gumball orange. Well, blue and orange are complimentary coloUrs.........

the result, my friends, is MOST disquieting. I have got to find and recruit this man. :wacko:

Right after that, I have GOT to get a life.

:lol: :lol:

OMG my pastor friend says he will come over tonight and photograph the dogs and me for a Christmas photo. am pondering this offer. my gawd, maybe they'll be New Year's cards instead............

OMG - men have it SO easy, don't they? There would be 35 more incidents of panic in the female version............

Complete meltdown would occur when travelling from a temperate clime to a cold one .....dear god....so many scenarios to consider......would I be too hot in this???......too cold in that????....... :o ............definitely need one of Susie's muscle relaxants for that journey ;)

Bev looks beautiful :D

Oh no....no REAL world for me! It's just that between eating, sleeping, shopping, I have no time! Let's see

Cooking and then eating= 4 hours (cuz it takes me forever to do ANYTHING!)

Sleep= 10 hours

Shopping= 4 hours because I can't find anything!

Wait- 6 hours are lost! OMG- where are they!!!!!!!!!!! :rolleyes::P

Damn time vortex's are all around us - let's be careful folks !! - so very hard to get out of - I myself got sucked into a particulary nasty napping vortex earlier -_-

:lol: Dear gawd ...the wee smells.......Terry's family :blink: ....trade you?? :unsure:

yes....I will trade........wee smells......urine-soaked trees and gifts........MY FAMILY? heinously quiet and boring.............. *yawn* and very little communication.........give me urine-soaked drama any day........ :lol:

OMG - the red spellcheck underline-thingy is so egregiously wrong - - it indicates that HEINOUSLY is an acceptable word

:lol:

COMPLETE MELTDOWN is right. I can't even do it.......muskel relaxants or no - this scenario is just ENTIRELY too stressful and never ONCE in my life have I successfully packed for ANY venture. Then, on each trip, I spend half my time shopping for the right articles of clothing.

BUGGER!!!!!!!! So now, I just never go anywhere. :blink:

AAARRRRGGGHHHH!

Here is a funny for you guys. My office mates and I went out for lunch to celebrate one of coworkers birthdays. I drove and I had 3 other coworkers plus my boss in the car....my boss had me stop at the liquor store so she could go in and buy a few things :)

:blink: I've always thought "heinously" was a real word! "Heinosity" might be a bit of a stretch... but it reads well!!! :lol:

I read once, that when packing for a trip--- Pack what you think you'll need. Then remove half of it and take twice as much money!

BTW..... in case anyone is interested in a TMI update-- My gluten retribution has now entered a new phase: explosive, completely liquid, acid-poops. The fun never ends around here!

And I am uber-irritated with my best friend. We have been best friends since we were 12 years old, and the girl thinks "this gluten thing" is all in my head. WTH! For the past several years, she's been saying, "You and the kids are sick a lot, you need to figure out what's up." Well I did, and now I'm jumping on "the anti-gluten bandwagon."

How come I never heard of this wild trend until I discovered what was making us sick? Now I hear it everywhere- on here, from friends, in articles.

Did you guys know we're all very HIP and TRENDY!? That's right, diarrhea and uncontrollable farting is the epitome of cool. B)

OMG- and YES........naps are BORING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! After you nap every freaking day.

What fabulous place has Emily been ???

Better than chamagne swilling jacuzzi antics???

Ouch at other end then? :(

I agree! :angry: Then she said that this most recent, most heinous reaction is just because I haven't had gluten in awhile. If I start eating it a lot again, it won't make me puke anymore. :blink: And this is an intelligent, generally caring person, who I basically grew up with. It's appalling!

OMG- I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's the Celiac!!!!!! :lol: All Celiacs are fab dancers!!!

Yup, sigh. Well it got me to swear off of Poking the Owie forever, so I suppose it's all right in the end.

I just went and played it again, and noticed that I'm the elf that is consistently running BEHIND everyone else! :lol:The kids just made me play it five times in a row.

I am sitting here thinking of braving the crowd at Tarjey tonight to get a picture frame. Can I interest anyone in the trip?

So Sorry to hear this Sarah!! So far, I haven't been hit with the "taking it to far" or "all in your head", at least not to my face. They may be saying it behind my back <_<

In my own defense, I didn't know whose head was going where. And so that the rest of you don't get jealous because you didn't get picked to dance, I had to pick the people who have the biggest heads (in their pics so that it wouldn't get all fuzzy when I scaled it).

I am sitting here thinking of braving the crowd at Tarjey tonight to get a picture frame. Can I interest anyone in the trip?

I was thinkin' about headin' that way myself. What time do you want to meet?

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

Well I am out of here in 15 minutes. What time works for you :)

You've been lucky so far! My friends and family are the type that picks and teases constantly, and that's ok. But I know her husband mocks my "gluten-free endeavors" ceaselessly, and I think it's sunk into her subconscious. Or maybe not, maybe it's all her. In any case, I think it's an EGREGIOUS breach of best friend behavior guidelines! :angry:

Go ahead . . . you can say it . . . it'll make you feel better

:angry:PoopyCow!!!! :angry:

Better?

OK, so now I have to ask . . . EGREGIOUS? :o:lol: why that's a Susie word!!! She's rubbing off on you!! . . . Not sure if that's good or bad :unsure:

OMG!!! I was just out in the kitchen making dinner (sort of) and stewing over the situation, and I was thinking over and over in my head... Poopy Cow.... Poopy Cow! .... POOPY COW!

OK, so now I have to ask . . . EGREGIOUS? :o:lol: why that's a Susie word!!! She's rubbing off on you!! . . . Not sure if that's good or bad :unsure:

:lol: I love that word, and have just been WAITING for an excuse to use it!!! I think this fits the bill. B)

Actually....... The mental chant was more like- Poopy cow... poopy cow.... egregious breach... poopy cow.... utterly egregious... Etc. And my face probably looked a lot like this--- > <_<

      Thanks for the update, Ben. If you will be having an endoscopy/biopsy to confirm the results of the blood testing - and this would be the normal protocol - you will still need to continue the gluten challenge until that is done.
    • Ben Cohen
      Update on how things went. To meet my daily quantity of gluten I had a measured amount of gluten flour with my breakfast and 2 slices of bread later in the day. I still had discomfort but it wasn't debilitating. My blood tests results came back this week and they were positive so I've been referred to a specialist.

      Hello, Ive been to the dermatologist ( two different ones) and now made appointment, soonest is NOVEMBER. Ive been dealing  with skin issues for a while and its getting  worse because nothing has worked.I feel the bumps, gently squeeze and a itty bitty hard thing is coming out.I took a picture and did close up and in the MANY pictures ive taken this past few days, there's a " string" type thing at the end. I FEEL IT COMING OUT.... At first few pic it looks like hair, its not.Its  part of what ever is in my skin...I did call my Dr yesterday and will be seeing him this Monday. What test should I request to see what the hell is causing my skin to have?I don't know what to call it.I do sleep with my indoor cats.I also have an inheritance cat two years ago who took to sleeping with me as well.I also was on topiramate but had to stop because of speech issues, memory and it can affect those with  kidney stones. I did suffer kidney stones in past.So i had to completely stop.Since freaking out of what i KNOW what I saw, i took matters in my own hands and decided to eat several whole cloves a day.Since doing so, though im not to eat garlic.My skin is actually clearing up sloooooooooowly.but then again I just started 4 days ago and already notice a difference. My husband thinks im seeing things.I know what I see and feel. what test is there to ask doctor about what is in my skin? Husband thinks im seeing things, because of the meningioma and stopping meds.i know what i saw.

      Vitamin A is important for vision health. But be careful in supplementing it as it can lead to toxicity. Research it and consult with your medical professional. I do not have a definite answer to your original question but I was pursuing the possible cause of nutritional deficiency. But your visual deterioration could be unrelated to your celiac disease so don't rule that out.
    • Name
      Currently 19. Doctors think I was 1 year old when celiac started, but I wasn't diagnosed until 18, because they didn't do lab work on minors. I've been on a strict gluten-free diet for 14 months now. For example only certified gluten-free nuts and I've researched best brands a lot. I take B vitamins, vitamin D, vitamin C, Curcumin with black pepper, black sesame and green tea extract, magnesium, iron, and a little selenium and zinc, beef liver capsules. I recently had my vitamin and mineral levels retested and D is the only one I don't have enough of now. I had my eyes tested at 17 and they were good back then.
