David in fact asked for a LINK to the Phart Chart :lol: :lol:

Emily, do we have one?

Sillies I have got to tell you my bad thing I did last night.

Well sometimes I do wake up and need a drink overnight.

was it Absinthe? Did you invite the Phaerie into your bed? :lol:

AMANDA! You're SUCH an AMATEUR!!!!!!!!!!! Mygawd, she eats a handful of eggs....one time........in bed..........Lucky stares at her and puts her paw on teh bag (yes, I am familiar with this behavior only it's a Dingo paw on the bag - er, a CANINE paw on the bag :lol: )

OMG - I eat snacks in bed almost every single night. :ph34r: This ensures I can't lose the 5 pounds I'd like to get rid of. I mean, of rid get. :lol: oh wait, that was a phrasal verb, eh Em?

....HEY!!!! Wait a minute.....It's my DAD, isn't it?!! Haven't seen him in a while...his astonishing chameleon-like abilities transfer well, I am sure, to the written word....It all makes sense, now............. :lol:

oh dear gawd! is it???? could it be??????? is it all but a figment of my imagination? Well I must say........your dad IS quite a clever man......has managed to disguise himself as a hunky 40-something that smells of vetiver and.....has beautiful bone structure and...the kindest heart and.....well I won't go on.........could take all day...... :)

My overall opinion right now....this hospital will make me wait until my hmm_hmm falls off!

My beef about it is what if something may be wrong....and April is a little too late, ya know? It is nuts!

your hmmmm-hmmmmmm..............ha ha ha!!!!!!!!!

interjecting a serious moment here...........

When I was practically the most sick, scrawny, and broken-hearted human alive, back in early January 2006, and it was known that I had occult blood in my stool, and was so anemic as to be almost dead, :blink: I spent a day praying and fasting. True story. My appointment for the GI was four months out....I had been calling every day to check on cancellations......nothing.

The day I prayed.......sobbed.........cried out to God in a crumpled heap on the floor, actually RAILING at Him as I prayed, I got a phone call taht afternoon, for a cancellation the very next day. OH HELL YES I"ll take the appointment, was my answer. My condition was soooooo pathetic that my beloved GI had his nurses bump every procedure up the next day......and I got in for my endo and colonoscopy. I was desperately hoping, as many of you know, just to find out that I had either a very EASY solution, like internal bleeding that could be treated, or colon cancer, which I seriously was not going to tell anyone about and not treat...just let myself fade away and die.

Anywho, the rest, as we know, is history. :)

So, pray to get in sooner!

MUST GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mygawd, you're right....

How could I have mistaken a hmm_mm with a hmmmm_mmm? I don't have either of those things. Being officially into my forties, now, I have a hmmm---mm. And my MOM! Well...I don't think the characters are even on this keyboard for what she now has..... :lol:

Gah!! Got up so late! Much catching up to do!

Was Tom drinking last night? . . . Does anybody know WTH he's talking about?

<i tawt i taw a dingoboy!> :blink: :blink:

<i DID! i DID!!> :rolleyes:

Ha! Just realized something, and I'll actually admit it....I, too, wasn't a young child when VCRs were household items. It was naughty magazines under his bed....

Ahhhhh reminds me of the horny male teen (pardon the redundancy) version of Princess & the Pea, wherein he's too insensitive to notice the vcr 'twixt the mattress & boxspring.

Heyy!!! Thank gawd, something to take over the absolutely addictive thrills of the Quest! I felt I'd be lost when it was over, as it's another three months until the Triple Crown, and those are only a couple of minutes long... Point me to the website!

Oh yes, there it is. . . Tom was drinking yesterday and it was the absinthe. . . Now everything else you read from him last night you should "hear" with a slur.

Oh no no no .. . .only had a jigger. It would be fair, howevah, to "hear" a giggle every few words, in a myriad of magnitudes.

Pseu-zee & Dei-vhid ABsolinthely MUST get a bottle of this stuff!! :wacko:

(That goes for all y'all!)

It truly is a different effect than other libations.

We got it at a BevMO, albeit, 3rd closest BevMo. . ..... hey Donna!! Camden & Union maybe closest BevMo to you? Try the absinthe! "Good for what ails ya!!" :D

tom Contributor
:lol: now THIS had me guffawing out loud........can't believe the power of the phaerie....does John do that on beer and other alcoholic beverages also? or just the absinthe? Tom - send some ASAP :lol:

Oh it WAS all about the Absinthe. The Phaerie may be wee, but she packs a wallop.

(to be fair he did drink a LOT over MANY hrs)

He drinks plenty .. ..beer, whiskey, tequila, jaeger .. you name it. He has fallen asleep sitting up on the couch here, but nothing like absinthe night.

He'll actually pick up an 18 pack on the way home from work, finish it, and start eyeing my beloved Redbridge!!!!!!! (Again, to be fair, now's the time to mention he went 10days w/out a drop last month, so he's not a comPLETE alky)

*chortle*

Forgot what this was about, but it does make me laugh along witcha :lol:

Susie's bothered by hummus??? :huh: :huh: I eat it ALL the time. Have 2 types in fridge at the moment.

But there are many brands w/ ingred I can't have.

I should be making homemade, but I always take the easy way out and buy it.

      My chest pain has been caused by costochondritis, as well as times when iron supplements has given me such bad bloating it has put pressure on my back and chest, and reflux can do the same. Also, along the lines of Wheatwacked's suggestion above, is it possible you had an injury to your chest/ribs way back that is being set off by either some sort of gastrointestinal bloating/discomfort? I distinctly remember really hurting a rib over forty years ago when I misjudged a wall and thought it was just behind me but in fact it wasn't.  I fell badly against the wall and I think I cracked a rib then.  For some strange reason I didn't tell anyone but I think had I gone to hospital an X-ray would have revealed a fracture. I think that rib has not been right since and I am sure that bloating makes it worse, as well as heavy lifting.

      Sorry for the long post. I’m 18, and I was diagnosed with celiac disease and type 1 diabetes (T1D). My transglutaminase IgA was >128 U/mL, EMA IgA positive twice, and I’m HLA-DQ2 and DQ8 positive. I’ve been completely asymptomatic since diagnosis, even when I cheated with gluten sometimes in the past and used to eat out(2-5 years ago) I don’t get the typical celiac reactions, which makes it really hard to know when (or if) I’ve been glutened. But for the past year, I’ve been the most strict with my diet, and that’s also when a bunch of new issues started. I eat completely glutenfree, never eat out, dont eat food that says „may contain gluten“.   Current Health Problems • Floating, undigested stools for over a year now. Dont think its related to celiac as it was like this since im 17 and not 13-16( i got diagnosed at 13). • Chronic back pain started gradually, worsens with movement, lots of cracking/popping sounds. Been ongoing for a year now. First noticed in the gym. • Abdominal bulge on the right side, not painful but seems to be getting slightly bigger. Doctor didn’t find a hernia on ultrasound, but it was done lying down (I’ve read those can miss hernias). Noticed it like 6 months ago, couldve been there longer. • extremely dry and mildly swollen hands (this started before I started excessive hand-washing), and bloated face. • Signs of inattentive ADHD (noticed over the past 3 years), now combined with severe OCD focused on contamination and cross-contact. • Growth/puberty seemed to started after going gluten-free. Before that I was not developing. Dont know if any of these are because of celiac as my dad doesnt have those and he is a lot less strict gluten-free then me. I also had pancreatic elastase tested four times: values were 46 (very low), 236, 158, and 306 (normal). Gastroenterologist said one normal value is enough and I don’t have EPI. Family doctor prescribed Kreon anyway (after I pushed for it), and I just started taking 1 capsule (10,000 units) with meals 2 days ago, but couldn‘t see effects yet because I’ve been constipated the last few days. Maybe because of thyroid. I don’t have Hashimoto’s. No thyroid antibodies. But I took levothyroxine for slightly low FT4 levels. My thyroid levels fluctuated between borderline low and low-normal. And recently lowered my dose so that may have caused the constipating. I probably didn’t need it in the first place, and am thinking about stopping it soon.   Current Diet Right now, I only eat a very limited set of “safe” foods I prepare myself: • Gluten-free bread with tuna or cheese • Milk and cornflakes • gluten-free cookies/snacks • Bananas (the only fruit I trust right now) I rarely eat other fruits or vegetables, because I’m scared of contamination. My dad, who also has celiac but doesn’t care about CC, buys fruits, and he might’ve picked them up right after handling gluten bread. That makes me feel unsafe eating them. Even fruit at stores or markets feels risky because so many people with gluten on their hands touch them.   My Home Situation (Shared Kitchen) We’re a family of 5. Only my dad and I have celiac. He eats glutenfree but doesn’t care about CC and sometimes (but rarely) cheats. My mom and siblings eat gluten bread at every meal. My mom is honest (so if i ask her to be cautious, she most likely would try to), but doesn’t seem to understand how serious celiac is. She: • Stopped using gluten flour • only cooks gluten-free meals (but they still heat up gluten bread and also cook gluten noodles) • Keeps separate butter/jam/jars for me • Bought me a stainless steel pan Bu we didn’t replace old wooden utensils, cutting boards, or other pans. The new they bought me pan was even carried home in a shopping bag with gluten bread in it, which triggered my OCD. It also has a rubber handle and I’m scared it might still hold onto gluten. Even if it’s washed well, it’s stored next to other pans that were used for gluten food/bread. Our kitchen table is used for eating gluten bread daily. My mom wipes it but not with soap. I’m scared tiny particles remain. If she made gluten-free bread dough on a board at the table, I’d still worry about cross contmaination contamination even with something under the dough and on the table as at one point the dough would probably touch the table. So I stopped eating anything she makes.   I know OCD is making it worse, but I can’t tell how much of my fear is real and how much is anxiety. Examples: • I wash my hands 20–30 times a day — before eating, after touching anything at home or outside, after using my phone/laptop. • I don’t let others touch my phone, and I’m scared to use my laptop because friends at school or my brother (who eat gluten) have touched it. And it annoys me a lot when others touch my stuff and feels like it got contaminated and is unsafe instantly. • I stopped eating while using my phone or laptop, afraid of invisible gluten being on them. • I wash my hands after opening food packaging (since it was on store cashier belts where gluten food is placed). • I avoid sitting anywhere except my bed or one clean chair. • I won’t shake hands with anyone or walk past people eating gluten. • At school, when switching classes, I wash my hands before getting out my laptop, again before opening it, etc. • I open door knobs with my elbows instead my hands   Job Concerns (Powder Coating, Sandblasting, Etc.) I’m working a temporary job right now that involves: • Powder coating • Sandblasting • Wet spray painting • Anodizing There’s also a laboratory. I don’t need this job, and my OCD makes me believe that dust or air particles there might contain gluten somehow. Should I quit?   Doctors Haven’t Helped My family doctor told me: “Asymptomatic celiac isn’t serious, if you have no symptoms, your intestines won’t get damaged, so you don’t need a gluten-free diet.” I knew that was wrong, but he wasn’t open to listening. I just nodded and didn‘t argue. My gastroenterologist (who’s also a dietitian) said: „If your antibodies are negative, there’s no damage. It might even be okay to try small amounts of gluten later if antibodies stay negative.“ Also said, pepper that says “may contain gluten” is fine if it only contains pepper. She was more informed than my family doctor but didn’t seem to fully understand celiac either.   Questions I Need Help With 1. Is it realistically safe to eat food my mom cooks, if we get separate pans/ and boards even if gluten is still used in the same kitchen? There will always be low risk of cc chances like that she will still touch stuff that was touched by her and my siblings after they ate gluten. And as there are gluten eaters in the house and she also prepares and eats gluten. So would opening the fridge then getting the food and touching the food be okay? So basically what i am doing, washing my hands multiple times while preparing food, she would only wash it once before, then touch anything else (for example water tap or handles) that were touched with gluteny hands, then also touch the food. I dont know if I ever could feel safe, I could try telling her how important cc really is. And I trust her so she wouldnt lie to me then be careless about cc, but idk how safe it really can be if she and everyone else keeps eating gluten and touching stuff in the house after eating. 2. Do I need to worry about touching doorknobs, fridge handles, light switches, etc. that family members touched after eating gluten? What about public places like bus handles or school desks? Or like if i went to the gym, I would be touching stuff all the time, so there will be small amounts of gluten and those would get transferred on my phone if I touch my phone while in the gym. But I want to knos if it would be enough to do damage. 3. Is an endoscopy (without biopsy) enough to tell if my intestines are healed? I’d pay privately if it could help and if i dont get a refferal. Or do i need a biopsy? 4. Could my job (powder coating, sandblasting, etc.) expose me to gluten or damage my intestines through air/dust? 5. Do I need certified gluten-free toothpaste, hand soap, shampoo, or moisturizer? (For example: Vaseline and Colgate don’t contain gluten ingredients but say they can’t guarantee it’s gluten-free.) 6. Is spices like pepper with “may contain traces of gluten” safe if no gluten ingredients are listed? Or does everything need to be labeled gluten-free?  7. Is continuing to only eat my own food the better choice, or could I eventually go back to eating what my mom cooks if she’s careful? 8. is cutlery from dishwasher safe if there are stains? Stuff like knives is used for cutting gluten bread or fork for noodles etc. I often see stains which i dont know if its gluten or something else but our dish washer doesnt seem to make it completely clean. 9. I wash my hands multiple times while preparing food. Do i need to do the same when touching my phone. Like if i touch the fridge handle, I wash my hands then touch the phone. I dont eat while using my phone but i leave it on my bed and pillow and my face could come in contact with where it was.  10. Do i need to clean my phone or laptop if theyve been used by people who eat gluten? Even if no crumbs fall onto my keybaord, i mean because of invisible gluten on their fingers. 11. Does medication/supplements have to be strictly glutenfree? One company said they couldn‘t guarantee if their probiotics don’t contain traces of gluten.  12. I had bought supplements in the past, some of them say glutenfree and some of them dont(like the brand „NOW“ from iherb). I bought them and used them when i wasnt washing my hands so often, are they still safe? As I touched and opened them after touching door knobs, water taps etc. It was like a year ago when i bought those and even though i was eating gluten-free, I never worried about what i touch etc. I know this post is long. I’m just extremely overwhelmed. I’m trying to protect myself from long-term health damage, but the OCD is destroying my quality of life, and I honestly don’t know what’s a reasonable level of caution anymore. Thanks for reading.

      I've been making a lot of black bean brownies lately because it's one of the few gluten free dessert recipes that actually tastes palatable.  I've also seen chocolate cake recipes with black beans.  Someone mentioned a cookie recipe using lentils in place of flour.  Just wondering if anyone's run across any tried and true recipes using beans, lentils or peas for desserts?  I've seen a lot of recipes for garbanzo flour but I'm allergic to garbanzo beans/chickpeas.  Was wondering if adzuki or pinto beans might be useful in replacing some or all of the flour in baking.  Since gluten free flours can be crumbly was hoping the beans might help produce a better, less crumbly consistency.  Any recommendations for recipes?  Thanks.

      I've seen a lot of recipes for chia pudding, so I decided to make some with chia, water, cocoa and honey.  Didn't like the taste, so I added ground sunflower and ground pumpkin seed to it.  It tasted okay, but came out more like frosting that pudding.  I used to make pudding with tapioca starch, milk powder, water and sugar.  It came out very good but I haven't figured out what to use to replace the milk powder to make it dairy free.  Most starches will work in place of tapioca starch but quantity varies depending on the type of starch.  If I didn't add enough starch to get a pudding consistency, I'd add gelatin as well to fix it.  Avocado and cocoa makes a good dessert with a pudding like consistency.  Unfortunately, I have a bad reaction to avocados.
