Morning Sillies

Another Monday another work week....it is rough for me I had a few days off....but alas here I am again. Our cat has been acting strange since we got home Saturday night...so we might end up taking him to the vet. Last night I woke up at 3:30 in the morning and he was curled up in a ball sleeping in between my legs, I am a side sleeper. I knew he had been there since 1...and when I moved positions he just moved with me. I woke up though since he made me too warm since I sleep with a blanket on...John loves to crank the central air!

So its off to start some work now.

Bye Sillies!

:unsure::blink::huh: Sounds like another thread is invading Sillyville again!! :lol:

Yeah--it's safe here....and I just had to say it :lol:

What thread is this? I wanna see!

Their pilot flew a huge craft in the shape of a NYC yellow cab about 100 metres above the Ottawa River before it crashed into the drink. Second prize went to a flying lighthouse

Into the drink! :lol: My mom says that, such a great phrase.

Johnsmom's cracking me up! I, unlike Em, do constantly inspect what comes out of my nose (as well as my children's noses.) I think it comes from having chronic sinus infections. There's a whole color code, you know.

Clear/white is always ok.

Yellow usually means I've been dusting a lot.

Brown is evidence that I've been helping my dad in the woodworking shop.

Mellow green means a sinus infection has arrived.

Neon green means the pine pollen is high.

:D

I must admit, although I liked both of them very much, I was slightly leaning towards Matt. I think because I thought he was a little more at ease on camera.

We enjoyed the show, though--what did you think of it?

Did you watch the Designer's Challenge (?) right after?

Gawd yes! (shudders)....there was a period of time shortly after I went gluten-free that this would happen to me too. :o I would be fine one minute, and then I literally had about 10 seconds to get to the bathroom.....I always made it IN there, but not always in time to get me jeans down :ph34r:

Thank Gawd that this didn't last long fer me--poor Judy having it last months :(

But ya gotta admit--we're a hardy bunch! :D

I remember those days, I was working at the time and the bathroom was not only in the back of the lab but I could not leave my area unattended....I called off alot that spring/summer. It was another year and I got my job here. Besides that day in March and last Weds....those were my 2 call-offs in 2008. What a few years can do. I almost feel like myself again....I missed me!!!!!

Fathers and phunny clothing......

How many of you have lived with the abomination of white socks with oxfords? Mygawd, the absolute bane of my mother's existence, and something she stopped my father from doing well before I was born. But I have heard about it constantly thoughout my life, during the many times we would happen by a man wearing this dreaded combination, often with dark pants (the crowning heinosity)

Well at least he hasn't worn sandals with socks....... :unsure: ....has he????

Gaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh. I have a little whispering voice right now, barely able to speak. Thank you SO MUCH for this, Jess. Your perfect, wise words will be passed along to Jack as I will show them to him. This is fitting for your poignant message of passing along life's great things.

Dad is a tremendous gift, simply with old, tattered wrapping. 'Tis so true. :)

:mellow:

GADS!! Jess is going to HAVE to put a warning on these heartfelt, emotionally charged word bloody perfect posts!!!!!!

Aaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh............................

One's better than none I always say.. ......yer just be careful you don't trip up on the other leg's hair and do yer other knee in :lol:

Thanks all for the comments on my brother. :wub:

I"m off again......keep running around to visit people so as not to have to be here :(

Here???? oh .. ..There

Good to see a poop-in. :)

Lisa had a phlipover to 400 . ...no phluidistic catastro-fee??

I'm just here chuckling along to the silliness & pausing to admire Jess' words.

<again!> :)

You would just ring him (no 'up') ;)

D'oh!!! No "up"???

I coulda swore these UKers I used to work w/ would add the "up". One english, tho originally from up north, did spend years in London. A few others Irish & all from County Cork, me ancestral home. ;)

I liked them both too! There were alot of really nice likeable contestants this season I thought, the only one I didn't like was that one girl, see don't even remember her name :lol: I was actually kind of shocked Trish didn't make it to the final though.

I would have been happy with whoever won last night.

I missed Designer's Challenge because I watch Army Wives at that time, but I am sure they will reair it sometime and I'll try to catch it then, it looked interesting.

Tom, I just read the article. That sounds really neat what they are doing to honor your brother. Are you going to be able to go to the dedication ceremony?

How are you doing with all the new supplements?

tom Contributor

Oy .. ..now they don't know when the rockcutter will finish turning that boulder into a bench. Seems like no chance of holding to the original Aug8 scheduled dedication.

If I were back to work already, I think I'd be going up, but at this point it feels fiscally irresponsible. :(

Just finally started all the supps yesterday :) - couldn't wait any longer for possible adverse effects from the milk in the one. Seems ok, so off we go.

I might have to get back into the OMG thread. ;)

I was just re-reading the article, Ptaoughmghmn....just a terrific story. Pat sounded like a man that everybody would love to get to know. :)

Perhaps if the dedication is held off for a while, you may get there...(?)... .. .

Did you guys see that Christina Applegate has breast cancer? I was reading that this morning. She is very young for that type of cancer.

      For some context: I have type 1 diabetes (T1D) (since 11 years) and celiac disease(since 4 years) For about a year now, I’ve been experiencing permanent floating and undigested stools. I’ve had a pancreas elastase test done. The first result was extremely low at 44, but a second test came back at 236. My doctor said that since one result is normal, it rules out pancreatic insufficiency because, according to them, elastase levels would always stay low if that were the issue. However, could the 236 have been a false result? My doctor also thinks I don’t have pancreatic insufficiency because I’m able to gain weight. I also get hgh injections as my bone age is younger than my real age, this also contributes to weight gain, so I dont know if weight gain can rule out malabsorption. But maybe if I had real malabsorption I wouldnt gain any weight even with hgh? For celiac, I’m on a gluten-free diet, but there might b small cross-contamination from things like pepper labeled as “may contain gluten.” or sausages which dont have gluten ingredient but say may contain. My doctor said that small amounts like this wouldn’t harm me and even mentioned that an occasional small exposure to gluten may not do much damage (which seems questionable since I thought even tiny amounts could be harmful). She also said that when Im older (Im m17) I could try eating small amounts of gluten and do antibody blood tests to see if I can tolerate small amounts or not. For reference, I’m asymptomatic when it comes to celiac, so I have no idea if I’ve been “glutened” or not. My first concerning celiac blood test was semi high IgA, then 3 months later we did a check up and my IgA was high so it was confirmed celiac. Since than I’ve had celiac antibody tests done yearly to see how my diet is going, and they’ve been negative, but I’ve heard those aren’t always reliable. I’ve never had a follow-up endoscopy to confirm healing. I also always kept eating „may contain gluten“ food. (I live in Germany so I dont know if „may contain gluten“ is as risky as in the usa but I suppose both are as risky) These stool issues started around the same time I was doing excessive heavy lifting at the gym. Could stress or lifting have triggered this, or is that less likely since the symptoms persist even after I stopped lifting? Occasionally, I’ll feel very mild stomach discomfort, but it’s rare and not severe. My doctor (also a dietist) said floating, undigested stools could still be “normal,” but that doesn’t seem realistic to me. Could this be impacting my vitamin or protein absorption? I also did a fructose intolerance breath test and had a high baseline of 20 ppm, but it never increased—only decreased over time. I fasted for 12 hours and didn’t eat fructose beforehand, but my stomach didn’t feel completely empty during the test. Could this mean the test was inaccurate? For lactose intolerance, I did the breath test but only fasted 10 hours and had eaten lactose prior because I wasn’t aware of the proper diet restrictions. My results were: 14, 12, 15, 25, 35, 40, 40 ppm—which would be considered positive. But given that I didn’t fast long enough or follow the right diet, could this result be unreliable? Has anyone else dealt with similar symptoms? What ended up being the cause for you? And sorry for the long text!

      The Docs' and NP haven't committed to Celiac determination yet but say go gluten-free diet because...  And I have with improved physical results - feeling better; overall functions better, and more energy.  Still 10 pounds down in weight but I still have BMI of ~23.  It's been just over a month now gluten-free diet.  I'm fortunate I get along with diary/milk well and most other foods. I wanted ask about this site's sponsor, gliadin X.  If this is legit, seems like a good product to keep on hand. Though it says it's only a safety for incidental gluten contact - not a substitue for gluten-free diet. What's your input on this? This may be sensitive subject since they're a sponsor. I've used resources here and other sites for information, gluten-free food/product lists. So thank you for all that support. That's it for now - Stay warm...  -2F this morning in Colorado!

      I did suffer with gastric symptoms before diagnosis, but got all sorts of weird and wacky symptoms after going gluten free.   Things got much better once my antibodies fell to normal levels, but it took years (please don't panic, many people's go to normal levels relatively quickly when following a gluten-free diet). Causes of the symptoms you mention that I also experienced were iron supplements, a temporary dairy intolerance (this is common in coeliacs and should pass when your gut heals properly), and eating oats, as mentioned above.  Other symptoms I got were musculoskeletal pain after diagnosis, but again, once my coeliac blood tests were normal, I had no more pain. I did notice patterns emerging in foods that I reacted to and learned to steer clear of them, then gradually reintroduced them when my gut healed, such as soya, pure oats and dairy products.    You might like to keep a food diary.

      Well the conflicting results continue as the biopsy has come back negative. 😵‍💫 Waiting to discuss further but I really don’t know what to think now? Eight biopsy’s were taken from duodenum which surely should be sufficient if it was coeliac? 
    • Pasballard
      I have Celiacs and want you to be aware of the amount of weight you can potentially put on if you rely on gluten free snacks, bread etc.,they  are high in carbs.  I put on 25 lbs in a short amount of time.  Whole Foods are the best way to go but I struggle with this.  The cost of gluten free is also a problem.  I love black licorice but most have gluten.  My favorite chili seasoning as well.  The list is endless.  I take  Advil liquid gels and had no idea until I read this.  I hope you do better than I have done.  I feel I am destined to suffer daily no matter what.  My aunt didn’t take care of herself and died from complications.  I hope you can get on a good routine.
