No doubt! My rooomie in "Absinthian Destruction About Town" will always be revered by all avatar aficionados .. . .. but .. . . hmm .. . Gian-knit seems immune to a female's batting eyelashes. :lol::P

If Janet's got something to tell us, I'm all ears .. . Or is it eyes .. . :rolleyes:

"AbsintheAnnie"........ :lol: Sounds like the alehouse slattern in a run-down saloon of turn-of-the-century American West......

Why no "turn-of-the-century Canadian West"???? Just a lack of Hollywood appreciation?

It MUST have been quite similar.

Hallo Sillies- I am laughing at all the new absinthian avatars and toilette chairs!!!!!!!!!! :lol: NICE!!!!!!!!!

If Bev can fit me into her busy schedule . . . we will be in Boxford from the 5th through the 11th or 12th. We will have some mandatory Bostonian sight-seeing to perform, but we're flexible at this point.

Yes- yes. Come visit!!!!!! I live 2 towns away!

And next year, we are talking about heading out to Washington to see my brother (West Richland) and spend a little time in Seattle . . . Jess's neck of the woods but apparently (based on her profile) she lives in the middle of Puget Sound so we might have to rent a boat.

Can I come? I've always wanted to live in Puget Sound (well, on an island in..... :P )

OMG - he said Chowchilla. :

Carry on sillies- I am feeling wretched due to some combo of Lyme/flu. :( :(

Welp, I'm back from the doctor. The problems with my eye are directly related to the sinus infection, which I kind of figured since- 1) It didn't get any better on the pink eye meds, and 2) It hadn't spread to my other eye or to anyone else in the house.

She did lots of hmmm'ing and uh-huh'ing while examining various facial orifices... noted that the amoxy had done nothing... and had her new colleague come in to look at me and ask a zillion questions... They consulted for a few minutes, flipping through my (5 pound) chart... and said...

You have quite a history of being susceptible to infection and unresponsive to antibiotics. You really... really... really... need to quit smoking. And go off dairy. You're already gluten-free, you can handle quitting dairy, too.

Holy flaming panic attack, Batman!!!!!!!!

I have been with this doctor for many years, I love and respect her very much. I like her new colleague, too. But I don't know how I'm gonna do this, especially the smoking!!!

They also put me on 2 weeks of doxycycline. Kind of seemed to be a last ditch effort before switching to the big guns (i.e. the really expensive abx.) Neither of them seemed to think the doxy would do much good, but want to try it just in case.

I may have trouble bringing the phunny for a while.

OK, OK, I fixed my caption . . .succumbing to the peer pressure . . . everyone else was doing it . . .

Hey Tom, you've got a typo in your caption, spinach in your teeth, your zipper's down, there's toilet paper stuck to the bottom of your shoe, and your mascara is smudge . . . WAIT!!! WHAT??!!?? :lol::lol:

2 things .. .no, 3 things .. ..no .. ..2 things

1) I recommend NOT replacing dairy w/ soy products! :ph34r:

I use Pacific brand Hazelnut milk for cereal. Mmmmmm

There are all sorts of goat cheeses that could be fine. I love the basic chevre, but some feta, gouda, & mozzarella have been fan-f******-tastic and more closely resemble, or, really I can safely say exCEED, the cow versions.

2) We DO know we should quit smoking. :(

I get a weird slight-panic feeling in my chest when I think of going w/out. I hate how so many situations won't feel right w/out lighting up.

It's just GOTTA be done .. . .. .and I'm closer to ready all the time.

Yeah, the more I read about soy, the less I want it. :ph34r:

I will definitely try the hazelnut milk! I gotta have my Erewhon Brown Rice and Berries. :lol: And now Rice Chex is gluten-free, yay!

For the mozzarella... will it say "goat mozzarella" or something? I assume you can get this at Whole Foods? Goat cheese still has casein, right? But it's got less, or something? Or a slightly different kind?

I guess I'll go strictly dairy-free for awhile, and see what happens. But if it's going to be long term, I'm definitely going to be looking at some alternatives. No more mac and cheese. :( And chocolate! God help me.

The cigarettes, yeah... *sigh* I had actually run out when I went to my appt. So I was like, should I buy any more? I had to go to the store to get some odds and ends, was just about to check out, was having a nic fit, and nearly hyperventilated at the thought of not having a cigarette when I got out of the store. (I know how pathetic that is, but it's the truth.) So I did buy ONE pack, decided to give myself that long to get used to the idea, and when it's gone... it's gone.

Yeah, I'm kinda depressed about it right now.

Sarah . . . enjoy life chocolate chips and kinni-toos . . . for your choc fix.

Bless you! :lol: I didn't know about the chips, and totally forgot that K-toos (as they are affectionately called in my house ;) ) are dairy free! Whew, there's something at least.

jerseyangel Proficient

The Enjoy Life Chips are fabulous! I also love their Mambo Trail Mix. And the Snickerdoodles. :P

I'm dairy free, also, and use Pacific Foods Almond and Rice milks. The Vanilla Almond makes delicious chocolate and butterscotch pudding (I use Jello cook and serve). I have a recipe that I came up with for scalloped potatoes using the Plain Rice milk-- let me know if you want it.

Darn210 Enthusiast

And don't forget, Hershey's Cocoa (although, as a forum, we're kind of anti-Hershey's right now . . . so wear a disguise . . . :ph34r: )

Oh and cigarettes . . . do they still make those candy ones? :lol: . . . Probably not . . . uber politically incorrect . . . :lol:

jerseyangel Proficient

I use Nestle's cocoa--one of my favorite chocolate fixes is Nestle's Cocoa, sugar in the raw and Vanilla Almond milk in a mug, microwaved 2 minutes. Yum :P

      I just thought I'd update this post. My father has had some issues with his heart rythym and we found giving him an electrolyte drink plus a vitamin D supplement with extra calcium containing food (yoghurt) made a big difference, and very quickly. My own problems with ectopic heartbeats started up again with warmer weather so I thought I'd take a leaf out of his book, and now, for the second time, after just one Phizz Electrolyte Drink, and a dose of vitamin D (Fultium D 800 x 4) with a milkshake, my ectopics disappeared within the hour.   Probably the Phizz drink rather than the D with calcium, but maybe it all helped?  Just mentioning this in case anyone is looking for answers.

      Do you have the standard range for the test results you received? A level of anti-tTG2 antibodies at least 10x the standard range is almost certainly (>98%) due to coeliac disease. Moderately raised levels can be caused by other conditions as well as coeliac disease. Accuracy of the No-Biopsy Approach for the Diagnosis of Celiac Disease in Adults: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis It is possible to have latent or early stage coeliac disease without histological changes visible by microscope. As has been suggest in this thread, if the repeat test comes up negative and serology is high, request an HLA genetic test from your specialist. Only 40 % of the population carries an HLA gene variant enabling the development of coeliac disease - if you test negative for this, it is quite unlikely that you have coeliac disease.

      Hi @Ginger38, By now you know that these things improve without gluten. I once saw an interview with a corporation executive where he proudly declared that his wheat products are more addictive than potato chips. Dr Fuhrman (Eat to Live) said find foods that are friendly to you to be friends with.

      Hi @CC90 Ah... that is very interesting.  Although it is very annoying for you to have to go through it all again, I would say that almost sounds like an admission that they didn't look far enough last time?   I could be wrong, but I would not be at all surprised if they find something on the next attempt.  Coeliac damage can be very patchy, as I understand it, so that's why my own gastroenterologist always likes to point out that he's taken lots of samples!  In the kindest possible way (you don't want to upset the person doing the procedure!) I'd be inclined to tell them what happened last time and to ask them in person to take samples lower down, as  if your health system is anything like the one in my country, communication between GPs, consultants and hospitals isn't always very good.  You don't want the same mistake to be made again. You say that your first endoscopy was traumatic?  May I ask, looking at your spelling of coeliac, was this done at an NHS hospital in England?  The reason for the question is that one of my NHS diagnosed friends was not automatically offered a sedative and managed without one.  Inspired by her, I tried to have an endoscopy one time, in a private setting, without one, so that I could recover quicker, but I had to request sedative in the end it was so uncomfortable.    I am sorry that you will have to go through a gluten challenge again but to make things easier, ensure you eat things containing gluten that you will miss should you have to go gluten free one day. 😂 I was told to eat 2 slices of normal wholemeal bread or the equivalent every day in the weeks before , but I also opted for Weetabix and dozens of Penguin chocolate biscuits.  (I had a very tight headache across my temple for days before the procedure, which I thought was interesting as I had that frequently growing up. - must have been a coeliac symptom!)  Anyway, I do hope you soon get the answers you are looking for and do keep us posted.
