Just pooping in real quick... I am so tired... don't know why, just TIRED...

(((HUGS))) to Susie... I know what you're going through. :(

Loooooved Judy Blume, and Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret was one of my favorite books when I was a kid.

I think my poopathon a couple days ago was a Micky D's glutening. <_<

Brian is on vacation all this week, so it's nice having him around... since he's not around much otherwise...

I just realized that with all the chaos of illnesses and medications and everything else, I totally forgot to sign Ezra up for kindergarten. :o Furthermore, we may have missed open house. :( What a space cadet... <_<

Edited to Add... I also meant to :lol: :lol: :lol: at the Kenyan pushups!

Good afternoon- Looks like I missed some beautiful moments and Jess-isms. You guys are the best! :wub: :wub:

I just think that amazing people sometimes forget that they are amazing, and need reminding.

Ditto to you Miss Glittery Eyes (gorgeousssssss!!!!!!!!!)

All right. Jess, you have been Silly-Instructed NOT to scream with such ferocity (font size 8, er sumphin'), as it completely strrrrrretchesssss all of our screens, and there must be constant, exhausting scrolling back and forth. Well, Ptaoughmghmn!

Had a lovely dinner with my parents, and it is true....I am SO unbelievably blessed to still have them both here, both in their eighties, and both mentally sharper than anyone around....sharper than ME, fer sure.....

My dad is fading physically, however. :(:( Parkinson's.

I thought my screen had stretch marks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Parents growing old :( It's hard. My dad is 78 and last night I just thought "Gawd, when I lose him :( " His cat's been sick and to him, it's the last symbol of my mom in his place. He has been heartbroken (she is doing better though) and it breaks my heart too. Sigh.

You mean eye, right??? Singular!! She's only got a pic of one eye!!! There's no tellin' what the other eye looks like . . . could be "smokey", or goth, or perhaps she's sportin' a patch and practicin' for Pirate Day, right matey Jess??

Pt 2

Oh Emmy, honey, if love could only make our wishes happen. Your dad's body is only here to hold his gift to the world. It's only the wrapping paper that's getting tattered; the amazing being that is your father is still, and will always, be here. Not only has he given joy and laughter to untold numbers of his fans, he's given us you. And you have given us Jack. The world is a better place because of him.

And you.

See- Jess- :wub: :wub:

COURSE IT'S NOT TO SAY THAT BUBBA MIGHT BE OF NEED OF THE SERVICES THEY PROVIDE................. :o:blink::ph34r::lol::lol:

ENJOY YOUR BOOZE DON'T CHA BEVIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. ;)

JUDY

TEE HEE- apparently someone posted info (spam-a-lot) on a rehab center near where we stayed in Maine. :ph34r: y'all know I've been such a partier lately!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very well said! I was attempting to come out of hiding when I happened upon (okay . . . willing looked against my better judgment) the thread which I believe caused your page stretching scream and I think I am outta here again. What's the point of contending with people who believe they are so smart that they somehow understand how a DEAD virus could make them sick. Somebody get these people a scholarship to MIT. <_< I'm sure the experts in virology could use some help in coming up with an HIV vaccine. Oh that's right . . . vaccines are much more dangerous than any of the illnesses they protect against . . . how could I forget.

YES- WE Need to know what this is all about (although I have my suspicions <_< <_< )

SUZEEEE- I hope you're feeling better. COLD TURKEY??????? PLEASE be careful- Wellb. is not a cold turkey drug- uhm.....scared cuz cold turkey Wellb. can result in seizures. Really. :( :(

Won't be long and the leaves will be changing colors and phallen!

I thought you siad the leaves were going to be PHALLIC :lol:

Hope you don't have to go throught all that again. He said "might", so hopefully it won't come to that. We'll think positive :)

Brilliant idea. Tomorrow - two different eyes. We'll see if anyone notices.

Bev, for Criminey's sake. Stop all this silly insertion-of-plastics-into-body stuff and get better already.

jess - love yer one-eyed glitter ;)

Parents growing old.......oh god...my mom is 70, but does not have great health (breast cancer twice - first at age 32, w/ 16 lymph nodes removed......second at 40), thyroid cancer, diabetic (celiac in denial), three heart attacks and now a pacemaker (the medieval radiation in the sixties killed part of her lower heart tissue).... I REALLY need my mom to stick around for a while! :( (oh, Dad died of colon cancer at 56 - CELIAC ALSO)

Julie - oh dear! it's pure panic here if air conditioner goes out.....but what is phunny is that, the second I read of fluids coming out of it, I immediately looked at yer post count :lol:

Nik - transfats........ :lol: *sigh* They'll be a thing of the past in California restaurants soon... I think? Anywho, I"ll be over w/ Julie and Pat also......bloody hot here......

Bev - PICC line? :( let's hope this is NOT true.

BUT OMG - you're right - - I felt soooooooo sick yesterday - actually did read about seizure possibility and took half a pill in early evening......slightly better today. Felt like my brain was exploding yesterday, was short of breath, kept blacking out when standing up...... :unsure:

am I EVER going to be normal? :( Do I even HAVE any neurotransmitters left at all? :( I seriously doubt it......and, can you run out of endorphins entirely? because I think I have......

:huh:

OK- you guys will get a GOOD LAUGH out of this:

Hear I am half crying/half laughing (thanks to Jess) and I go to let Angus in. He is CLEARLY occupied playing with some poor animal (I'm thinking bee and don't want him to get stung).

So I call him, he won't come. I go out barefoot cause I'm waiting for the yelp and as I get closer I realize it's something bigger (no- not the Montauk Monster).

Start walking faster (BAREFOOT) and SQUISH. Dog poop. And he's playing with this poor, defenseless, no-eyed baby mole so do I grab him and go in? NOOOO. Must save the mole first (GEEZUS- I must be a farking Buddhist).

Just finished wiping, washing and sanitizing the feet. Mole in better shape than me :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Uncle Ray is in da house!!!!!

Thoughts on Retirement:

I've often been asked, 'What do you do now that you're retired?'

I say, 'Well, I don't have much of a chemical background but one of the things I enjoy the most is turning wine into urine!'

Uncle Ray's Home Remedies:

AMAZINGLY SIMPLE HOME REMEDIES

1. AVOID CUTTING YOURSELF WHEN SLICING VEGETABLES BY GETTING SOMEONE ELSE TO HOLD THE VEGETABLES WHILE YOU CHOP.

2. AVOID ARGUMENTS WITH THE FEMALES ABOUT LIFTING THE TOILET SEAT BY USING THE SINK.

3. FOR HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE SUFFERERS ~ SIMPLY CUT YOURSELF AND BLEED FOR A FEW MINUTES, THUS REDUCING THE PRESSURE ON YOUR VEINS. REMEMBER TO USE A TIMER.

4. A MOUSE TRAP PLACED ON TOP OF YOUR ALARM CLOCK WILL PREVENT YOU FROM ROLLING OVER AND GOING BACK TO SLEEP AFTER YOU HIT THE SNOOZE BUTTON.

5. IF YOU HAVE A BAD COUGH, TAKE A LARGE DOSE OF LAXATIVES. THEN YOU'LL BE AFRAID TO COUGH.

Oh, man, Amanda! I sure wish WE were sharing a Brian rather than a brain....don't you? <_<;)

Fish and salad, Nikerler? Sounds fab! Not kippers, as they are only fit for British breakfasts, n'est-ce pas?

...and if I AM to put ON weight everytime I get weighed in at me slimming club I may as well be eating deep - bloody- fried something delicious!!!!!!!!!! :angry:

Nikki! How bloody long have you been attending this money pit slimming club? Are there penalty fees if your weight goes up? Do you climb onto the big scales under a spotlight on a big stage in front of everone, your success/failure blaring through a megaphone? Gaaaaaaahhhhhhhh...... :huh::lol:

I thought you siad the leaves were going to be PHALLIC :lol:

OMG......and me wif no umbrella......... :o:lol:

Shoozle. :(:(

You absolutely need to see the doc about this weaning off Welbutrin. No WONDER you feel like death! Slowly and systematically... .. . .let yer doc help - -that's what they are there for (well......most of 'em, anyway)......... <_<

You've got plenty of neurotransmitters snappin' away in there! Too bad we can't get new neurotransmissions installed........ <_<:rolleyes:

I've often been asked, 'What do you do now that you're retired?'

I say, 'Well, I don't have much of a chemical background but one of the things I enjoy the most is turning wine into urine!'

:lol::lol: Excellent, Uncle Ray. Bev, get him on here!

Bev, I'm thinking about you... .. yes, we'll think positively. You're going to keep recovering....no need fer another PICC!!

I am also thinking about you stepping in poop. Only here, I'm laughing...... :D

      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.
    • trents
      Welcome to the forum, @Dana0207! Another diagnostic approach would be to get biopsied for dermatitis herpetiformis which would not require an extensive exposure to gluten. But it would need to be done during an active outbreak of the rash. Celiac disease is the only known cause for dermatitis herpetiformis so it would be a definitive diagnosis. It might be tricky, however, to time the dermatology appointment with the gluten exposure and outbreak.
