..hideous day here...grEy, windy, rain lashing down :(

Ah! This description is perfect for the English countryside I often see in me mind . .. ... . with Heathcliff striding through the misty, swampy hills, wind billowing up his black cloak .. . . . . :lol:

Amanda--it's so weird, I keep having dreams about moving again, looking for homes, etc. It's bizarre--I had another one just this AM before I woke up. What in hell???? :unsure:

Mygawd. . . . . in the last two weeks, I have suddenly had several appearaces in some foggy dreams of my ex-boyfriend from twenty years ago . . . . . :ph34r: What in hell is HE doing there? There he is, as I turn a corner or walk outside. Last night he told me that he is breeding....get ready. . . .ducks for a living. :huh: Then, in a horrific moment, I suddenly felt a back molar come free, and it came out!! :huh::huh:

Holy crap. This probably means that my house is going to flood, or that my mom's gonna call me tonight, er sumfin. . . . . . ...... :lol::rolleyes:

I just googled a guy I had a crush on in high school. He actually has a web page and something of a blog. It's one of those types of blogs that you start reading and think "Does this guy actually think that someone wants to read about how happy he is that Dr Who is back on the air?"

Weird to think of the paths that life takes you on (or, thankfully, doesn't take you on).

Mornin' all! ;)

Yesterday I called the Dr that the CTscan was ordered through.

His receptionist wife said she'd tried calling me but wasn't succeeding, which makes no sense at all since it's the same number she used to call me both a few wks ago & a few yrs ago.

But I went for the >1 honey:vinegar ratio & told her my ph was being weird.

It was his idea originally that the plan was to just go over the report on the phone unless something warranted more.

She wouldn't tell me why, but I now have an office visit today @12:45p to go over it.

Hmmmm .. . ..when I 1st wanted an appt it was 2wk+ wait.

Hmmm :mixedemotionsface: <or is that faceS>

Latest blood test results due late in the week - maybe Thu, maybe Sat.

Of course that assumes all goes the way it's supposed to, which has been awfully rare lately.

Hey Gnichyyyyyyyyy!! You MUST know the tv show "Skins" that I've been watching on BBC-America, right?

I'm liking it. :)

They actually put up a disclaimer at the start of each show, w/ some variations.

Cracked me up enough to freeze-frame & copy 2 of them.

Hey, Ptaoughmghmn!

Dear gawd, I know . . .. . . . .this phenomenon is very present within facebook, as well. Why do people think that their friends need to know how they are currently watching reruns of I Love Lucy, or making tomorrow's grocery list, or cleaning up Princess's furballs? :rolleyes::lol:

Hi Nik :D

Gawd, finding old boyfriends.....on Facebook, I found (easily, I wasn't looking) the guy I had my phirst crush on ever!! I was just head over heels for this guy from afar from first grade to sixth. We went to the same church, too, where he was an alter boy. ( I still remember the tiny smiles between us as he and the priest gave out communion). :lol: We went all through school together, actually, but travelled in different circles after elementary school.

I know! I checked the page of graduates from my high school the same year as me. Out of probably a dozen, I recoginized about 3. Now I know some of the women have a different last name, but I was surprised that I didn't remember more of them--or from my school as a whole.

One coincidence was that one guy I graduated with just recently did business with my sister and her husband and asked about me. I didn't know him very well, but at least I remember who he is! :lol:

First practice for Oliver! Cover your ears Susie, musical talk. For almost three hours we sang Open Original Shared Link. I may hate that song now.

Soozie Avoidance Rating was high, but not as high as, say, Chicago - WORST WORST WORST and most TORTUOUS thing I've ever seen (well, only saw first 10 minutes and then the last five minutes of the movie enough heinosity for me, I tell ya)

Funny story...

Both Susie and I could only get through about the first 15 minutes! I'll let her tell her side, but I just couldn't get into it, and Gerard's beard and little braided thingy was distracting :lol:

:lol: Yes, 'tis true, I never turned it back on! didn't even care.....such a BOY movie, really. Well, it was phree, am taking it back today and don't feel guilty.

Julie - Suzanne Somers :lol: :lol: OMG - mailing list for life - that is hee-larry-us

why don't you consider litigation? Just sue her for harassment, maybe you can get TONS of money and take us all somewhere! :P

So, took the Ripper for his scan. As he was being moved into position under the scanning machine, all strapped down and lying board-straight, little arms at his sides, I hear him say to the technician, "I have SO MUCH snot in my nose all the time. Will you be able to see it in the pictures? All packed in there?"

I quickly returned, "Uh, Jack... . . .. don't ya think you see enough of it all day, every day, in your kleenexes, on your pillow, your shirt sleeves....?.. . . ."

:lol: Just loved this

Couldn't let this pass .. . .

wait..........the Bridesmaid Chapel in my dream was really more of a pollywog shape. :lol: just had to clarify. And it was very cool, I awoke trying to figure out how churches could have two of these dimly-lit, lovely pollywog-shaped rooms underneath their main chapels.....there was one on either side of the church in my dream, you see. ;)

OMG. . ....... . Jess, there is a vital difference, now .. . . . you are uterusless. Not certain what this will mean - - perhaps you will have a sudden admirable capacity for alcohol, what wif the extra space in your abdomen. . . . . . . ....maybe you will be unable to function after one drink, as there is no longer a large organ there to absorb the alcohol.

I'm really getting into this walking thing--I parked way at the end of the lot today at WalMart and walked there and then next door to the grocery. I read in Prevention that even shorter bits of walking/exercise add up throughout the day.

Ahhh...interesting summary on dreaming of tooth loss. Quite, hilarious, really, when applied to me. I particularly like this assertion:

Another rationalization for these falling teeth dreams may be rooted in your fear of being embarrassed or making a fool of yourself in some specific situation.

Right.. . . yeah, that's me. Always SO self-conscious, terrified of embarrassing myself. . . . .

:lol:

There is a new thing that you can do to a friend, besides the now old "poke", "hug', "send a beer to"- - dunno if any of you have noticed it, but it would work very well here, Patti, for this old love. You can "bump and grind" with ________.

Do you remember him being the type who'd be receptive to bumping and grinding wif you?

Back. Not toasted. I didn't realize that the bartender only waits on one section and I didn't choose a seat there. Ah well, now I know. Did have three pink fru-fru thingies. Pleasantly buzzed, but not alarmingly so.

Sooo, back to trying to figure out how to differentiate endotoxin contamination acting on endogenous TLR4 from a true effect of CD14/MD2 on TLR6.

Feel free to offer up suggestions.

      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.
