What was this ? Psilly tooth day? J had to have 3 teeth filled. They gave him happy gas. He has never had it before. His mellow bro had it and was great. Should have known. They had to keep waking him up because he kept hallucinating and fighting them. He's 6 foot tall and 170 lbs of muscle. They had to numb up his mouth extra. Good thing this dentist is an old family friend!

Now for something really important! How's Hank, the fruity poodle? M and I have fallen in love with his photo.

Ha ha, just followed you there! Mebbe follow you to bed too (me own :o )

By the way Em, I did a post on Hainque which did not appear anywhere, but just wanted to say how cutely adorable he is and we look forward to hearing more of his Hainquely exploits (besides poop-making :unsure: );

Dear gawd. . .. . . ....I have long heard of horses' heads, but this? . .. . . . ...:blink:

:lol:

Hainque is quite the heelarrus li'l fellow... . . . ...I forgot what veritable factories they are at this age... :rolleyes:

The first evening we had him here, there had been a small birthday get-together in our back yard the night before - - wine drunk, gifts opened, etc. I introduced him to the back deck, coaxed him down the steps, and he marched right over to a shady area and pooped right on top of a bow that had come from one of the wrapped gifts. :lol:

I think he was telling us that he is going to be a good li'l guy.. . . . ...

Saturday, two weeks from now, I fly in to term 5 and out of term 3.

Three weeks later I fly in to term 4, and out of term 5.

Does this mean I have the option of leaving through passport control? I have some vague recollection of going through some humongous line at Heathrow watching people desperately trying to stuff all their collected miscellany into one bag in order to be allowed through some check point. I think it was a terminal change.

Crap, I just re-read the times --it's only three hours each time. But still...

JOESS!!!!!!!!!!!

If you're not going out through passport control at Heathrow - you're not 'officially' on British soil, and I can't get to you!!! :unsure:

Normally, to catch a connecting flight, you just get ferried from one terminal to another without actually being 'in' the country. <_<

Bummer :angry:

..maybe your flight company will know exactly what's what? :unsure:

I'll contact British Airways. It can't be that big of a deal to exit passport control and come back through.

Spain and the UK are both in the EU, aren't they? I thought there was no passport control *within* the EU, so the flights between Heathrow and Spain would be like ones within the UK, or am I confused? I was last over there in 1992, when there were still British Passports and the UK was not part of the EU.

Unfortunately not POeter <_<

....Still need your passport if you are travelling to anywhere outside of the British Isles (even EU countries)

We still have our 'own' British passport.

I can't ever see it being any different due to terrorism <_<

Question

Is it possible to meet passengers transferring between flights at Heathrow or can they leave the airport?

Answer

Non-travellers are not able to go through customs and passport control to meet the travelling/transferring passengers.

The traveller, however, can exit through these controls to meet people or leave the airport if they have ample transfer time between flights and the necessary documentation to "land" themselves in the UK, e.g. a transit visa. Please not that it is a traveller's own responsibility to check their documentation for their journey incl passport validity and any visas required.

If I recall correctly, US citizens do not need a visa to enter the UK. I know Canadian citizens do not, but I have only ever entered the UK as a Canadian (I also have a US passport).

      Taken Seriously

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.

      Allergy medication: cetirizine by the HealthA2Z is it gluten free?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Navigating medication safety with Celiac disease can be incredibly stressful, especially when dealing with asthma and severe allergies on top of it. While I don't have personal experience with the HealthA2Z brand of cetirizine, your caution is absolutely warranted. The inactive ingredients in pills, known as excipients, are often where gluten can be hidden, and since the FDA does not require gluten-free labeling for prescription or over-the-counter drugs, the manufacturer's word is essential. The fact that you cannot get a clear answer from Allegiant Health is a significant red flag; a company that is confident its product is gluten-free will typically have a customer service protocol to answer that exact question. In situations like this, the safest course of action is to consider this product "guilty until proven innocent" and avoid it. A better alternative would be to ask your pharmacist or doctor to help you identify a major national brand of cetirizine (like Zyrtec) whose manufacturer has a verified, publicly stated gluten-free policy for that specific medication. It's not worth the risk to your health when reliable, verifiable options are almost certainly available to you. You can search this site for USA prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/

      Protein or fat?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      What you're describing is indeed familiar to many in the Celiac community, especially in the early stages of healing. When the intestinal villi are damaged from Celiac disease, they struggle to properly digest and absorb fats, a condition known as bile acid malabsorption. This can cause exactly the kind of cramping and spasms you're seeing, as undigested fats can irritate the sensitive gut lining. It is highly plausible that her reactions to dairy and eggs are linked to their higher fat content rather than the proteins, especially since she tolerates lean chicken breast. The great news is that for many, this does improve with time. As her gut continues to heal on a strict gluten-free diet, her ability to produce the necessary enzymes and bile to break down fats should gradually return, allowing her to slowly tolerate a wider variety of foods. It's a slow process of healing, but your careful approach of focusing on low-fat, nutrient-dense foods like seeds and avocado is providing her system the best possible environment to recover. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: Thank you for sharing your story—it's a valuable insight for other parents navigating similar challenges.

      Diagnosed celiac for 1-2 months ago and everything makes me bloated.

      By Beverage · Posted

      I had a very rough month after diagnosis. No exaggeration, lost so much inflammatory weight, I looked like a bag of bones, underneath i had been literally starving to death. I did start feeling noticeably better after a month of very strict control of my kitchen and home. What are you eating for breakfast and lunch? I ignored my doc and ate oats, yes they were gluten free, but some brands are at the higher end of gluten free. Lots of celics can eat Bob's Red Mill gluten-free oats, but not me. I can now eat them, but they have to be grown and processed according to the "purity protocol" methods. I mail order them, Montana Gluten-Free brand. A food and symptoms and activities log can be helpful in tracking down issues. You might be totally aware, but I have to mention about the risk of airborne gluten. As the doc that diagnosed me warned . . Remember eyes, ears, nose, and mouth all lead to your stomach and intestines.  Are you getting any cross contamination? Airborne gluten? Any pets eating gluten (they eat it, lick themselves, you pet them...)? Any house remodeling? We live in an older home, always fixing something. I've gotten glutened from the dust from cutting into plaster walls, possibly also plywood (glues). The suggestions by many here on vitamin supplements also really helped me. I had some lingering allergies and asthma, which are now 99% gone. I was taking Albuterol inhaler every hour just to breathe, but thiamine in form of benfotiamine kicked that down to 1-2 times a day within a few days of starting it. Also, since cutting out inflammatory seed oils (canola, sunflower, grapeseed, etc) and cooking with real olive oil, avocado oil, ghee, and coconut oil, I have noticed even greater improvement overall and haven't used the inhaler in months! It takes time to weed out everything in your life that contains gluten, and it takes awhile to heal and rebuild your health. At first it's mentally exhausting, overwhelming, even obsessive, but it gets better and second nature.
