I have to say Ptaum, that before you pointed it out (during the previous CeliacS conversation . . . if you want, I'll go back and quote it), I don't think I ever paid too much attention to someone typing/saying CeliacS. Now when I see/hear it, it's like fingernails on a chalk board . . . thanks ever-so-much for the enlightenment.

:D

There's just SO MUCH of it .. . ..AGHHHHH!!

This time it wasn't just because it was in the acct name, but that the post said it 2 or 3 more times, and the celiac in question had just joined the week before.

I also have a gnack for remembering stuff that didn't even happen.

<chuckle chuckle> :lol:

Well! I hope you slept well, Ptaum,

I most certainly DID sleep quite well, thank you.

Sarah, no smoking mountain in addition to its absence in your hand, mouth & lungs??

Today's the Las Vegas wedding! Of course, hoping Kissey2 catches all of the marital projectiles...

Hehehehe the nuptials were high noon Sunday :P

Bah! Bien sur.......I knew this..... :rolleyes:

So, my mom's eightieth birthday is next week, and we've long been talking about a big surprise party for her. Well, last week when I had the family over for dinner, she said about five times, "I do NOT want any party!! I mean it! Nothing! Just call me and say Happy Birthday". So we told her we were going to have a birthday party for her, and simply not invite her. She seemed quite happy with that, failing to sense the ridiculousness of such a plan. :huh:

...This is my life...... <_<:lol:

Where is everyone? Patti? Nikki? Sarah? And we haven't heard from Alex lately...I think about Colin all the time, and I'm dying to hear how he's doing...

Hi Emily :)

I'm here--in and out. We had a busy weekend and today I'm cleaning and dealing with about a ton of laundry :lol:

I did come on and read, though, so I'm up on everything sillie :D So funny about your mom's birthday. She'll have fun once she's there with everyone--you are doing a party, right?

My dad turns 80 next week and my sister and I are giving a surprise party for him at her house on Saturday. We'll drive up Saturday morning and hopefully get there by noon (it's about a 4 hour drive). We will spend the night there and spend Sunday afternoon with Mark's mom, sister and aunt before driving home Sunday night.

It should be fun--we expect about 25 people, several of which I haven't seen in a while. I hope my other sister (the one with the depression) will come. With her, we really won't know until that night--she'll either be there, or she won't. :(

It seems as though many of us have parents born in April.....could this be the common thread that binds us? Emily- Your mom...too funny. My dad turns 78 April 19th and he'd say the SAME thing!!!!!!!!

Patti- Didn't know your sister was still the thick of it :( That makes me sad. :wub::( It's a tough time of year.........

OK- I must research Open Original Shared Link :P

Can I have a party for Patti's dad too?? It'll be like the synchronized "lights out" event. We'll have an international Patti/Emily parental unit party.

Hehe my Dad's Bday is Apr 4th!! :D

Hi Sillies...I am writing from my bed where I am sitting home sick in my Pj's. I was ready to go to work but I didnt get there...I was just not feeling well enough to go. So I napped until 11 and now I am just hanging out in bed surfing the net...

Sounds like a good plan. Feel better soon! <that's an order .. .oh damn .. . ..my authority was usurped pages ago>

Patti, such a shame about your sister .. . .. :(

Am I recalling correctly that she doesn't believe diet can do that and gluten-free isn't worth a shot?

Yes!! I shall phone my mother this evening, tell her it's all solved...My brother, sister and I will continue to organise a big eightieth birthday party, only it will be for PATTI'S DAD, and she really should come. It's perfect!! Patti, what is your dad's name? I'll need it for the cake. And what size shirt/pants/socks is he? My mom may wish to pick him up something...

Can I have a party for Patti's dad too?? It'll be like the synchronized "lights out" event. We'll have an international Patti/Emily parental unit party.

I love it. My mom wanted NO Happy Birthday stuff from anyone in the family, and now there's a whole bandwagon..."Uh, Mom....many, many peoply are celebrating your eightieth today, kind of like the simultaneous lights-out-around-the-world thing"... :lol::lol:

Oh, man...how many people do we know whose lives could completely turn around with this diet change? I lost count in my circle some time ago...sometimes it threatens to make me crazy with frustration! :angry:

Gee, it's been pretty quiet in Sillyville today.

Sorry to hear you aren't feeling well, Manda, hope you are better soon.

I hope Sarah is doing well, I haven't heard anything. She was last on the boards about 11 hours ago.

Parental birthdays, is it. None in April here. February and August, and for both of them, 80 has come and gone. But we can still all have a celebration of sorts on the seventh.

Another April Birthday! Another common thread amonst us Sillies :rolleyes:

Thanks Tom, about my sister....yeah, she had a breakdown and was hospitalized last year for several weeks on two separate occasions. I have explained the Celiac link, sent up reams of articles and other information--and to no avail :(

The kicker (and something I can't believe I'm the only one in my family remembering) is that several years ago she saw a Kinesiologist who put her on a diet that omitted gluten among other things. She reported then that she felt the best she had ever felt. Slowly as she reintroduced other foods, she began this horrible spiral downward. She hates conventional doctors and won't seek testing--her husband is no help at all. I have appealed to him every way I know how. I've hit a brick wall....

It will feel a little akward if we see him this weekend--I was a bit pushy at one point. But at least I was trying to help. <_<

Hello Sunday Sillies- Welp, Susie's in Vegas (what happens in Vegas stays there? I always figured if it happened across state lines that rule applied- what makes Vegas so special?).

:ph34r::ph34r::ph34r:

:lol: :lol: :lol:

:wacko: :wacko: :wacko:

oh my gaaaaaaaaaaawd sillies...................

how can I explain vegas to those who haven't been?

:huh:

PURE DEBAUCHERY.

I survived it. :lol:

we are very, very tired..............um, let's just say - I barfed three times in the cab on Saturday night - but that is because of something I will tell you later (not just alcohol) and........Kissey got a bit sick last night. But did not barf (should have)>

Just the quickest hello - - - I am sooooooo tired - - have to go - - and back later - - will catch up tomorrow

:wub:

Love you sillies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi, Susie!! :)

We're all living vicariously through you, and await with bated breath your Vegas stories. Three barfs? Well, you must start wif this..... :lol:

psawyer Proficient

Well, I've been to Las Vegas twice, and it was pretty far out. My last visit was in 1993, and I understand it has just gotten further and further away from reality. The hotels just keep getting bigger and bigger. In 1993 we stayed at Harrah's and thought it was big, but at least three new properties more than twice the size were under construction. I've been to Reno a couple of times, and would much rather go there.

It sounds like you had an interesting and exciting time, Susie. You must tell us all about it.

Party next Monday! Oh, yeah! B)

Patti, our anniversaries are only 4 days apart! :D Brian's and my 8th anniversary is tomorrow. Yup, we got married on April Fool's Day. (I was destined to end up here with the sillies eventually. :P )

Weelllll, I did smoke a few cigarettes today. :ph34r: But only like a quarter of what what I normally would, if not less. Still working on it.

Welcome back Susie! Eek, on the barfing! What happened!?

Morning Sillies!

Here I sit at work, finally feeling better....wish I was home though :) Don't we all? Surprisingly warm and thats nice too :) But its rainy and dreary and I wish I was still home.

elye Community Regular

Morning, Sillies!!

Happy Anniversary, Sarah! I was going to come on with some insane story about my dad being a Roman gladiator last night when we visited him, and seeing the yeti sitting in a McDonalds on our way home, and then proclaiming, "Ha!! April fools!!"

Then I realized that I do this kind of thing every day... <_<:rolleyes:

We've been planning a trip there ever since we got back from Europe...our next "far destination"....We thought about this December, but the money just ain't there right now. Maybe in a couple of years. I just hate all this having to PAY for stuff.... :huh::rolleyes:

Party next Monday! Oh, yeah! B)

:lol::lol:

Okay, Susie!....On with the Vegas stories....

      Hello, I just wanted to share with the frustration of skin issues and seeing dermatologist and medications not working for years, I did my own healing experiment. As of last week I have been taking a drop internally under the tongue of Vetiver and putting on topically on sores Yellow/Pom.I am seeing a extreme difference at a rapid time.Im also noticing my nails a little harder. Ive always been into natural properties because I feel its safer for the body.I know short time, but really seeing a difference. I also feel the the trapped gases that causes bloating helps break down as well.Curious if any body else can benefit from and has tried. Products is made by Doterra by Dr Hill

      We have a category of articles on this topic if you really want to dive into it: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/miscellaneous-information-on-celiac-disease/gluten-free-diet-celiac-disease-amp-codex-alimentarius-wheat-starch/
    • Scott Adams
      I agree with @trents, and the rash you described, especially its location and resistance to steroids, sounds highly characteristic of dermatitis herpetiformis, which is the skin manifestation of celiac disease. The severe and prolonged reaction you're describing five days after a small exposure is, while extreme, not unheard of for those with a high sensitivity; the systemic inflammatory response can absolutely last for several days or even weeks, explaining why you still don't feel right. Your plan to avoid a formal gluten challenge is completely understandable given the severity of your reactions, and many choose the same path for their well-being. While experiences with GliadinX (they are a sponsor here) are mixed, some people do report a reduction in the severity of their symptoms when taken with accidental gluten, though it is crucial to remember it is not a cure or a license to eat gluten and its effectiveness can vary from person to person. For now, the absolute best advice is to continue being hyper-vigilant about cross-contamination—buffets are notoriously high-risk, even with good intentions. Connecting with a gastroenterologist and a dermatologist who specialize in celiac disease is essential for navigating diagnosis and management moving forward. Wishing you a swift recovery from this last exposure. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:

      So just to be cautious, there is a big difference between cured, and responding to their medication. I assume you mean that your daughter responded well while taking KAN-101 during the trial, but the drug would not cure celiac disease, but may manage it while you are taking it. Let me know if I got this right.
    • trents
      Welcome to the forum, @Godfather! "Gluten-free" is not the same as zero gluten. The FDA standard for allowing the food industry to us the gluten-free label on a product is that it cannot exceed 20 ppm of gluten. That is safe for most celiacs but not for the subset of celiacs/gltuen sensitive people who are super sensitive. "Gluten-free" wheat starch products have been processed in such a way to remove enough of the protein gluten to comply with the FDA regulation but usually do retain some gluten and we usually get reports from some people on this forum who fall in the more sensitive range that such products cause them to react. Hope this helps. So, you may just have to experiment for yourself.
