Matt - palpating - excellent :lol:

OMG - morphine - :unsure: - Susie doesn't like......that HORRIBLE rush when it first goes into the blood - ugh - - I suppose it's tolerable after that - does relieve the pain but - I don't really recall the magic place with that? maybe the SCREAMING kidney infection disallowed it.....

Nikki!!!!! That's great news :D

Is Alan looking forward to it--is he all excited? Disney World is truly a magical place--I'm so happy that he will be going. I hear that they are VERY gluten savvy there, so he should have absolutely no problems with food. We took the boys there years ago when they were younger--he's gonna love it!!

Wow--so great to get some really good news for a change! :)

FABULOUS NEWS . . . That's not much notice . . . Does he have a passport already???? If not . . . why don't you give him a "new" middle initial . . . tis all the rage.

Nikki!!! Take another look at that link!!! Those hats won't get him street cred . . . he'll end up getting a wee willie wedgie.

and oh Ptaum, Oracle of Absinthe - we're passing briefly through Willow GleN on Friday...........what in hell should we do about absinthe?

Uhhhhhhhh .. . .. . . #@!*&#! buy some????? :P

Heehee ok well your friend certainly knows that BevMo is ~1/2 block S of Willow, and you BOTH probably know that street pkg can be difficult but that there's a giant lot behind all those stores - and a back entrance to BevMo.

Last week there were still 3 bottles of the Swiss, K

Nikki!!! Such terrific news..... :):):) How old is your son? Well, Disneyland is a place where age just doesn't matter....Oh, you must be so happy....!!

Would I lie to you??

(Ooh that's that old Eurhythmics song w/ the fat crunchy guitar and puh-UNCHY horns!!!!)

And one Annie Lennox at her absolute sexiest....in a clinging, sparkly dress, Marilyn-type wig....

Yeah, and great horns.... B):)

P.S. Ok duh, yes I would lie to you if there might be a joke in it - but not lying about Absinthian Destruction. :ph34r:

If you ever get to try some, sipping 1 or 2 or 3 drinks is great (do I hear 4?), while inhaling 8 or 12 is NOT!!!!!!!

Absinthian Destruction....this may well describe the upcoming weekend, if I imbibe The Phaerie and then head out for some night skiing.... :rolleyes::o

A serious moment, here...Ptaum, I need you to give me an idea of what the "high' is like with a couple of absinthes (whoa--how on earth does one pronounce that?) under one's belt. Is it, "Hey!! Let's play Twister!! Tag! Let's make snow forts!!" or more like, "Man........I'm hearing some.....grrrrreeeeat music.........it's.....sitars"...

I think we're gonna want a more relaxing buzz for this occasion. Is it very sweet? Like, big-time insulin bolus?

He was most distressed to discover that this wasn't part of the rental agreement. Perhaps also distressed to discover what a screaming shrew I can become at 10pm when someone walks into my bedroom.

No little Absynthians coming along here.

An ex who wants sex....

Jess, tell him the story of our yeti in your lab. Better yet, just let him read your post. I am certain he will give you a wide berth forever after.

....Wait....you may never see him again.... :lol::lol:

ORACLE PETER! Are you hearing the same forecasts that I AM? 20 cm of you-know-what overnight tonight, and 40 on the weekend??!!!! :o:wacko::blink::angry::angry:

That was our forecast for the weekend, but now it seems to have gone away. Oh, wait, now I guess I know where it went.

20 to 25 overnight here. It hasn't started yet. Of course, tommorrow is a delivery morning, with the truck officially expected at 8:30 (it is usually earlier).

Nikki, that's fabulous news!

That is amazing!!! :D What happy news! It makes me happy just knowing that there is a wonderful programME out there like this and even happier that your deserving son was chosen to go.

Darvocet? THAT's the best you can offer me....I'm talking MORPHINE baby! (just kidding- bonus percocet would be most helpful in the long run :P

Yes! Who needs Morning Glory seeds when you have morphine. My grandpa had a cancerous lung tumor removed about 10 years ago (found by accident on an x-ray and cured completely by surgery - talk about lucky/divine intervention). After the surgery he was all hopped up on morphine and thought that the nurses were trying to hold him hostage. He was adamant that he was secret security for President Clinton and was proclaiming this to everyone! He kept whispering to my mom to get him is clothes so he could sneak out and meet Clinton on Air Force One :lol: . The funniest part is that he remembered the whole episode afterwards when he was lucid and we all had a good laugh about it.

Hopefully you don't have appendicitis :( but if you do you may have some funny morphine stories to tell us about.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶
