. . . problem is, they're are NOT the best readers. Just think of how they would try to pronounce all those different spellings of Tghawm.

But hey, you'd be providing that ever-desirable teaching moment, as well as the opportunity for those Cubs to practise their famous motto: "Always be ready!" One never knows when one will need to pronounce or spell such names as Ptaoughymnmn, or such words as eigen vector or dominatrix. Janet, this is bound to get you back in as assistant den leader - - perhaps put you right in the leadership role! :rolleyes:

Are either of you gonna offer an explanation so I can stop trying to figure out what they mean by 'decompose a matrix'???

Gad....I did not even know that "decompose" could be an active verb, let alone how in hell one would do it to a matrix.....

:huh::lol:

Jestgar Rising Star

That was pretty much my reaction :huh:

There was a newbie reading earlier........poor thing :(

You know - I LUUUURVE the ever new ways of spelling Tom (GADS that looks just plain)....no one even mentions it....it's just accepted.

I know, and the odd newbie that stumbles on here must think, "Whoa...that poor guy with a name like that! What kind of parent would DO that to their child?!"

Hey, Ptaouoyghmnmn!! It worked!! There's Susie!

:)

DingoGirl Enthusiast

OMG - Ptauoghoiuoiehghhlmmmmmmmmmmm :lol: summoned me and here I am!!!!!!!!!!!

I know I'm new around here, but how long have you been on Effexor? My DD used to be on that....and several others at different times. Many of the ones she tried worked at first, but after a while became ineffective. She hated to keep changing and was sure nothing would ever work. She's been doing really well for over a year, but I don't know what it is she's been on. I'll have to ask.

BTW, what kind of jewelry do you make?

Hi Lisa, and others of you who have asked about my med - -

you know.....I think I've been on this Effexor for - between two and three years, maybe longer?!! It could be almost four years.

I do think it's time for a change..........I feel SOOOOOOOOOOO tired and heavy and - even as though breathing is a struggle - that is just part of what physical depression feels like to me. :( So - I have an appt. tomorrow w/ doctor. I am so relieved, because I can just SO tell that........thing's aren't right. They're certainly not as bad as they CAN get - - but I'm not going to let things get that far.

When all I want to do is sleep and sleep........and I start thinking that I am worthless and things are way too hard (and worse thoughts than that - I'll spare the details).....I must pay attention.

Sarah - I have been on 150 mg. of Effexor.......which used to work. I am going to switch to someting entirely different as there are some side effects on this drug that I'm tired of.

So - had lunch w/ Kissey today at our fave Mexican restaurant. He is so precious - a tremendous gift to my life and very supportive. Doesn't need me to be anything right now except around him. :wub:

After I stopped laughing, and regarded Gus who was trotting happily in her wake, saying to himself, "for Gawd's sake...it's a bloody train! Save this for a groundhog", I yelled at her to come back, which she did. Promptly. Too phunny....

Em - I love the visual of the big, leggy poodle chasing the train :lol:

Amanda! You are about to make what perhaps could be judged a big flipover (4500)....Perhaps we get skin irritations at the smaller flipovers once we get high enough, and the fluid deluges at the thousand-marks. Susie, did you hit a 500-flipover when you went to the cabin? These rules could change throughout the duration of this thread, so we must be ready. Perhaps King Peter has been briefed on such matters....

:o OMG - do rashes count? why - I should think yes - - the poison oak rash really oozes after a while. :ph34r: certainly fluids with that........

dear gawd - I see that I'm approaching 4000 posts..................... HOLD TIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :huh:

Ahh! Both my kids have experienced this - - very contagious, and known as "Fifth's Disease", and I cannot remember why....

Amanda! this rash............Fifth's Disease.......prolly because you might get this rash after a regular and constant consumption of fifths of vodka er sumfin? :lol:

SARAH - Ezra on steroids..............zoigs!!!!!!!!!! :blink: The benadryl is a bit fatigue-ing, thank God.

Gads, trying to understand principle component analysis and Eigen vectors. I'm pretty sure if you place the word "theoretical" in front of any subject, that subject should be considered only "theoretically" important. (As in, "I'm theoretically working today").

:blink:

STOP THAT RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!

Hmmmm . . . yes, this could be a good way of getting out of being assistant den leader next year . . . problem is, they're are NOT the best readers. Just think of how they would try to pronounce all those different spellings of Tghawm.

:lol: absolutely brilliant idea..............

<ahem>

Ps-ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww- pzeyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!

YoooooOOOOOhoooooooooo

:lol: :lol: :lol: LURVE the spelling

There was a newbie reading earlier........poor thing :(

:lol: :lol: dat's funny!!!!!!!!!!!!

sillies - I am goign to be a Loser and succumb to the desire to be on the couch. :ph34r:

Oh SusieQ- Pseuzzzzzzeeeeeeeeee and Siouxie- I want you (ALL?) to feel better soon. :wub: :wub: :wub:

Bev, are you a right handed, slighty wavy hair mathS hater?????????? :unsure:

I am a right-handed, slightly wavy haired math uhm........not a hater, not a lover, somewhere in the middle?

BEV!!! GoodtaSeeya! (guttermind intact)

Tri-tip for who? You? Me? Not me . .. .haven't retried beef in easily over a year.

Hey . .....maybe I SHOULD!!! :blink:

:confusedaboutwhichfaceisdroolyface-face:

We could have the Tri-tip Trifecta!!!!! YUMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!! Must eat tri-tip before our vegan friend from san Francisco comes :P

It is WAY too hot where you and Psiouxsie live- I insist you move to Massachusetts toot sweet!

Oh my Goodness Sarah!!!! Poor Ez . . . at least it doesn't seem to be bothering him too much. When my son was on prednisone and bouncing off the walls at the docs office once, I mentioned in passing to another mother that he was going to survive the illness but I was going to have to kill him because of his behavioUr. She remarked "that's how I feel when my kids are on steriods" . . . and she didn't even know he was on it . . . :lol::lol: Yep, get that boy to the allergist, stat!!! It took me two months to get in to see one so make an appointment soon!!!

Oh sarah- this kid is a trooper!!!!!! Poor little guy!

Well???

Are either of you gonna offer an explanation so I can stop trying to figure out what they mean by 'decompose a matrix'???

do i have to get the whip out...

Uhm...judging by your new av, yes- GET THE WHIP OUT BABY!!!!!!!!!!!! fabio wants you to use it on him STAT!!!!!!!!

Must go build ark- Steve Carrell and Morgan Freeman have shown up. It is going to rain here for the next week!!!!!!!! Fine by me.......easier to nap when you don't feel like you are missing a sunny day! Susie- Come on over!!!!!!!!!! Bring that cute dingo (Angus's nickname went from Dingus to Dingy to Dingy Ding Ding Ding- she'll fit right in!!)

OK....here's the bad news. I found what I THINK is a tick bite (yes- bull's eye rash).......but you won't believe where......left boob!!!!!!! what, did the little bacteria sucker crawl in my bra? PERVERT! I see doctor tomorrow first thing.....uhm...at least I'm on antibiotics???????

Happy you are seeing your doc tomorrow! Keep us updated, ok?

jerseyangel Proficient

OMG Bev--not another tick!!!!! :o:angry::angry::angry:

They just love you--the nasty little buggers....I guess at least all the antibiotics you're on will kill anything before it gets a chance to get a foothold. If there's one thing you don't need..... <_< You poor thing.

Well guys, I might not be around as much for the next week and a half or so.....I'm letting Matt take my laptop with him on his trip starting tomorrow. I can use his computer, but probably won't be on as much.

Susie, I hope that you can get the antidepressant figured out....whether you need a different dose or another med altogether. Do those possibly lose their effectivness after taking for a long period of time? I don't know, just tossing it out there. One thing to take into consideration is that your chemistry has no doubt changed in the last few years on the diet--maybe something different would be more appropriate now.

I just had to tell my boss that I might not be able to do my lab work very effectively because of the pain in my wrists (it didn't all go away with the new Edna). horrifying and depressing to have to say such a thing.

Grrrrrrrr .. . .just back from errands to five <count 'em, five> stores, primarily prompted by wanton want of a frigid Redbridge on a HOT (what? no flamey font?) day - and both WhFds & BevMo are OUT!!!!!!!! :angry:

While extremely hot for SJ - 25 or 30 deg F over avg for mid-May - it only felt like a nice day in Phx. :)

Well???

Are either of you gonna offer an explanation so I can stop trying to figure out what they mean by 'decompose a matrix'???

do i have to get the whip out...

Licorice whip? Wet rice noodle?

<Orange Whip? Anyone? Orange Whip?>

I don't recall any decomposed matrices :( and it sounds more towards YOUR biological specialty. (Kind of a rotten trick there, I know :lol: )

Sorry DoMyMatrix dominatrix, yer on yer own. <_<

Yes! We ALL do, Susie! You'll be on the right road tomorrow, I'm sure of it, after your doc appointment.... :)

OK....here's the bad news. I found what I THINK is a tick bite (yes- bull's eye rash).......but you won't believe where......left boob!!!!!!!

Oh, Bev! I'm so sorry about this crappy development! But yes, the already installed antibiotics will help, to be sure....

...Typical of our Bev to be lookin' on the bright side..... :):wub:

That might make a neat avatar.

King Peter, that is a terrific pic, and it absolutely MUST become your av. And of course, the screen is stuck in Sillyville.... :lol:

but...

maybe he'll get me a technician :hopefulface: :):(

Maybe it'll be a tall, dark and gorgeous technician!! Uh....is this possible, in your experience? :lol:

Grrrrrrrr .. . .just back from errands to five <count 'em, five> stores, primarily prompted by wanton want of a frigid Redbridge on a HOT (what? no flamey font?) day - and both WhFds & BevMo are OUT!!!!!!!! :angry:

This reminds me of a question: Last night DH found a Japanese rice beer at our local beer store called Sapporo. The clerk told us it was gluten-free so he bought a six-pack. I did a bit of reading on it, and the jury is clearly out. It seems to employ barley, but it is altered (?) in the fermenting or cooking process (again, ?) to the point where it should be harmless to us. Anyone know anything? Our Scott says that we should proceed with caution.

Oracle Peter?

May start a new thread on this.....

Hehehe teehee giggle-chortle-HA!!!

Sapporo?????????????????????????

I don't think it's any closer to gluten-free than Bud & Michelob are, which are also made of rice instead of wheat.

I don't think healthfood-store-guy knows wtf he's talking about, tho I HAVE heard similar claims before.

P.S. I had to read "beef w/ sushi" 4 or 5x before I realized how close R & F are on the keybd! ;)

:( That's disappointing. Tastes great, it's 5%, and it's cheap....

Should have known - - too good to be true!

      Canker sores can definitely be frustrating, especially when you're already managing a strict gluten-free lifestyle and have been diagnosed with celiac disease for so long. While these painful mouth ulcers aren’t exclusive to celiac disease, they can be linked to nutritional deficiencies—particularly of iron, folate, or vitamin B12 (as @trents mentioned )—which are common in people with celiac, even those who are very careful with their diet. Ongoing fatigue and aches might also suggest that your body isn’t fully absorbing nutrients or that there’s some underlying inflammation. It could be helpful to get bloodwork done to check for these deficiencies, and possibly even a full nutritional panel. Sometimes, new sensitivities or hidden sources of gluten or additives like sodium lauryl sulfate (common in toothpaste) can trigger symptoms like canker sores too. Since your reactions are so severe and you're highly vigilant, it might also be worth considering whether any other autoimmune conditions could be involved, as they can develop over time and overlap with celiac. Consulting with your doctor or a celiac-informed dietitian may help pinpoint the cause and bring relief.

      @Dora77, You shouldn't worry about getting glutened through your skin.  You would have to touch a gluten infested doorknob and then put your hand in your mouth.   I'd be more concerned with your mom's heating up gluten bread in the oven and boiling gluten noodles.  These methods cause particles of gluten to become airborne which would then enter your nose and be swallowed, going into your digestive tract.  I have to avoid the bakery aisle at the grocery store for this reason.  An M95 mask helps. If you get nutritional deficiencies corrected, your immune system will calm down and be less reactive to gluten expose.  Vitamin D helps regulate the immune system.  Thiamine and Niacin help make digestive enzymes which would help digest any accidental gluten exposure.  Thiamine helps Mast cells not to release histamine, an inflammatory agent released as part of the reaction to gluten, and also a neurotransmitter that causes alertness and anxiety, and the flight or fight response.  Pyridoxine will help improve the OCD.  Remember your brain is part of the body.  Vitamin deficiencies affect your brain and mental health as well as the rest of your body.

      I do not have evidence other than anecdotal but I am certain when I have gotten these it's the result of eating gluten (back when I did).  I don't get them now that I don't eat gluten. 
    • Dora77
      What really bothers me is if worrying about getting cc‘d from touching the same door knob as others touched is valid. Seems like an extremely unlikely way to get glutened but i read people saying that.    If thats true then theres realistically zero chance i dont get cc‘d in a non gluten-free household unless i Cook Everything myself and wash my hands multiple times in between and store all of my stuff separately
    • trents
      Welcome to the forum, @Mrs. Cedrone! Among the various causes for canker sores, are "Nutritional problems like too little vitamin B12, zinc, folic acid, or iron" https://www.webmd.com/oral-health/canker-sores Could you be deficient on something?
