Sillieeeeeessssssss,

I'm driving myself nuts :( I've already started getting stuff together for my weekend trip.....I've changed my mind on one outfit (the one for Sunday) and I'm gonna hate tomorrow when I actually have to pack and get the food ready that I'm bringing to the party. Of course, that doesn't count the food I have to bring for myself...and the water :huh:

Gawd....this is supposed to be fun. Talk about making a mountain out of a molehill :lol: I know this, but do it anyway :huh:

Oh--on a related note, I talked to my mom today and she told me that my sister's doctor wants to try shock therapy :o For cryin' out loud....why can't they do an antibody test before they resort to such measures? :angry:

I've toiled this afternoon getting rid of all evidence of the unfortunate linkage snafu. B) Don't quite know how it happened--some sort of odd mixup, I suspect, but it wasn't the unamused poster....she just happened onto it. Probably would have happened sooner or later. ;)

Onward and upward! :P

Really???

The links are gone now so I can't test it out for meself.

And, this has had an astonishing side effect! Scott deleted two posts from page 2 of this thread. This has caused the very foundation of Sillyville to warp. That which they always worried about on Star Trek has happened to Sillyville. The first post on page 800 is now a post by, wait for it, jerseyangel.

The top two posts on every page from 3 onwards have been moved to the bottom of the previous page.

My poor head is spinning. :o :o

Well Peter, congratulations. You've uncovered my diabolical scheme to be the new ruler--by default. In one fell swoop, I have taken control of and shaken Silliville to it's core. B)

Be afraid, my Sillies, be very afraid..... :o

Well, for the first time, I just got busted for over emoticonizing! How utterly style-cramping and expressiveness-squashing! HARUMPH!

Oh Poopy Cow!!!!

Thanks! Hey that's a good idea... Actually, I hit the snooze button for about 30 minutes anyway, lol ... So if I put the patch on the first time I hit it, then by the time I'm really awake, it'll be working. Perfect!

Heyyyyyyy that's quite a system you've got there. I think you're home-free once the 1st day is done, tho I know they say 3 days.

Oh--on a related note, I talked to my mom today and she told me that my sister's doctor wants to try shock therapy :o For cryin' out loud....why can't they do an antibody test before they resort to such measures? :angry:

:( wowwwwwww

I don't suppose there's any documentation from the kinesiologist visit and/or short gluten-free time of feeling better . . .. .

:ph34r: I used to fear that I'd get shock-therapy against my will.

It's a lot less far-fetched than you'd think. :ph34r:

.. . The first post on page 800 is now a post by, wait for it, jerseyangel.

Very very interesting piece of sleuthing & sussing of the pertinent impact of this short-sighted near-vandalesque perturbation of order.

Alas, trying to keep chin up- Kurt and I are going to the Cape/Nantucket this weekend. It's going to rain all weekend and I don't care!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :wub: :wub:

Not that I've imagined how I would spend my time in my cottage on the Cape! :lol: I'm not jealous of how you're feeling though :( . I hope you don't too feel to wretched to enjoy your time on the Cape. I just love saying the Cape lol.

So clever...so deviously BRILLIANT....move all the posts back by two, causing a shift in the royal flipover position. All it takes is a quick, stealthy change of a single website address from the early pages, and WHAMMO! New royalty.......things are quite warped and convoluted and .....oh...the ramifications....

Maybe I am now in a past Queen position!!! Perhaps I am the first on page 300, or 400.....a queen that never got to see her day..... :rolleyes::rolleyes::lol:

I know--I could hardly believe it. This is supposedly a "top doc" psychiatrist. <_< They said she would be anaethetised and the whole thing would take about 15 minutes. They hope to "reset" things in her brain. Sounds barbaric to me.

Tom--I can believe it isn't far-fetched, as I highly doubt she would have a lot of say in this.

Yeah...between episodes of Law and Order :P and infusing antibiotics and napping :P Actually, I am on an officially ordered TWO WEEK break from my antibiotics! Yahoo!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bev said Nantucket & chin in the same sentence. :P:lol:

Tee hee!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well, I once knew an man from Nantucket :P. It was actually his CHIN that was long! That limerick was all wrong!

I'd try a toothpaste & pinecone diet before agreeing to THAT!

I've heard of individuals who voluntarily have it done regularly, but it just scares me.

Would anyone really ever hear about instances where it's detrimental??

They talk about the reset but can't quite explain it.

All I could think was "I AM my brain. I'm not my body. I . .. . . .am . .. . . .my .. . . brain. Don't **** w/ my brain!!!!!!"

**Band on break** :):P

I bumped into this article on North America's earliest humans, pre-dating Clovis by 1000 yrs. Open Original Shared Link

This cracked me up:

"To make sure the Oregon cave material hadn't been contaminated with modern DNA, the researchers tested more than 50 people who worked at the site. The DNA testing indicated that the feces belonged to Native Americans in two groups that can be traced to Siberia and East Asia."

"Awright!!! Which archeologist crapped in the cave?? Earl?? AGAIN???"

She would burp (a god one I might add) and I'd say "MOM!" and she would just giggle. Once, only once, did she EVER swera at me and it was so "cute" because she was so hard to rile up that I burst out laughing.

Bloodless seems confirmed. Fluidless, I'm not so sure.

Is anything around here EVER fluidless? :P

Yes......stronger than mine, anyway.....

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.

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.

      The Struggle Has Overtaken Me

      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.

      Coeliac or not coeliac

      By cristiana · Posted

      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.
