The Ronco Spray on Hair!!!!I forgot all about that.

Hey, remember the Flow-be? You could give yourself that flat top haircut, and all the excess hair would be sucked up into your vaccum cleaner. All in one easy step! :D

But wouldn't a guy who's losing hair worry that more than the cut hair would be sucked into the vacuum cleaner!!??

Which do women prefer:

Balding man

Bald man

Comb over (regular, not TheDonald)

Hair is good

Balding is good

Bald is good

Comb over -very very bad!! :lol:

Why would a man want to do that?!

I mean it's not as if you can't tell he's going bald. :blink:

Be bald and be proud I say!!!

For the record I've got plenty of hair. It's not nearly as nice as Steve's, but there is a lot of it, it's thick and it's REAL!

That Seinfeld epi. comes to mind - the one with Teri Hatcher "they're real and they're SPECTACULAR" :P

LMAO !!LOL! :lol: Richard you are so funny!!

With 2 coeliacs in my house (one of them still on gluten for biopsy) you seriously do not want to take your chances doing that in my house!!!! :lol:

I concur ! How can we assess whether Richard is follicularily ( is that a word? :blink: ) challenged unless we can see him.

Richard-are you scared you wouldn't match up to Steve's lustrous locks?

Did you read the text below it? It's real use is as an emergency breathing device for hi-rise building fires. Hmmm, I think I would take my chances with the fire escape before inhaling sewer gas!

I still get surprised when I see pictures of myself .... I don't think I look as skinny as I do in pics ... but I know I do. It's really funny because we lived here three years ago, and when we moved back, I thought it looked like everyone gained about 15 pounds ... but it was me who LOST weight!!

I had always been skinny and I worked as a land surveyor, so I was on my feet all day - great exercise tromping through the woods - so i never thought 2x about it. I wasn't really sick!

Scary is right!

      How Celiac Disease Impacts Bone Health: What You Need to Know

      4.5 years ago I had 2 vertebrae fractures. After several months, 4 doctors, and numerous tests, it was determined that the root cause of my fractures was long term undiagnosed celiac. My DEXA tests 4 years ago showed significant osteoporosis; -3.3 T-score on my left hip. I had to wait 5 months before going gluten free. After wearing a back brace for ...

      How much gluten do I need to eat prior to testing?

      Thanks for the update, Ben. If you will be having an endoscopy/biopsy to confirm the results of the blood testing - and this would be the normal protocol - you will still need to continue the gluten challenge until that is done.

      How much gluten do I need to eat prior to testing?

      Update on how things went. To meet my daily quantity of gluten I had a measured amount of gluten flour with my breakfast and 2 slices of bread later in the day. I still had discomfort but it wasn't debilitating. My blood tests results came back this week and they were positive so I've been referred to a specialist.

      Hello, Ive been to the dermatologist ( two different ones) and now made appointment, soonest is NOVEMBER. Ive been dealing  with skin issues for a while and its getting  worse because nothing has worked.I feel the bumps, gently squeeze and a itty bitty hard thing is coming out.I took a picture and did close up and in the MANY pictures ive taken this past few days, there's a " string" type thing at the end. I FEEL IT COMING OUT.... At first few pic it looks like hair, its not.Its  part of what ever is in my skin...I did call my Dr yesterday and will be seeing him this Monday. What test should I request to see what the hell is causing my skin to have?I don't know what to call it.I do sleep with my indoor cats.I also have an inheritance cat two years ago who took to sleeping with me as well.I also was on topiramate but had to stop because of speech issues, memory and it can affect those with  kidney stones. I did suffer kidney stones in past.So i had to completely stop.Since freaking out of what i KNOW what I saw, i took matters in my own hands and decided to eat several whole cloves a day.Since doing so, though im not to eat garlic.My skin is actually clearing up sloooooooooowly.but then again I just started 4 days ago and already notice a difference. My husband thinks im seeing things.I know what I see and feel. what test is there to ask doctor about what is in my skin? Husband thinks im seeing things, because of the meningioma and stopping meds.i know what i saw.

      Worsening vision 🕵🏽‍♀️

      By trents · Posted

      Vitamin A is important for vision health. But be careful in supplementing it as it can lead to toxicity. Research it and consult with your medical professional. I do not have a definite answer to your original question but I was pursuing the possible cause of nutritional deficiency. But your visual deterioration could be unrelated to your celiac disease so don't rule that out.

      Worsening vision 🕵🏽‍♀️

      By Name · Posted

      Currently 19. Doctors think I was 1 year old when celiac started, but I wasn't diagnosed until 18, because they didn't do lab work on minors. I've been on a strict gluten-free diet for 14 months now. For example only certified gluten-free nuts and I've researched best brands a lot. I take B vitamins, vitamin D, vitamin C, Curcumin with black pepper, black sesame and green tea extract, magnesium, iron, and a little selenium and zinc, beef liver capsules. I recently had my vitamin and mineral levels retested and D is the only one I don't have enough of now. I had my eyes tested at 17 and they were good back then.
