Arguing With One Another On Posts!?

I'm pretty new here and don't really feel I know too many of the regular posters, but I certainly enjoyed reading this thread. It was interesting and funny...I have to say, this message board has REALLY helped me more than anything else over recent months...I am feeling so much better now, mostly because of reading people's discussions, experiences, thoughts, references to medical lit, etc., and finally figuring out my problems with all of this help. Some arguing (I think I've missed most of it) is only natural in this situation; there just isn't a lot of helpful information out there or easy to find, and so throwing around opinions and all of that is only what you'd expect. If I hadn't stumbled across this message board almost a year ago, I'd still be totally miserable today! I would hate to see this thing moderated like the vegan message board I belong to, where anything possibly conflicting with veganism is deleted right away. I like the idea of veganism, but I don't like doing anything just blindly; I prefer knowing both sides of an issue before I make my choice...but now I'm getting off track. Let me just say again: This board, and every poster on it, has been enormous help to me.

Aww spunky- you're awesome.

Lynne- I cannot wait for the full moon. I am going to howl, wail and scream like a banshee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Richard- I've got Trigger stuffed and mounted in my living room. He's cool, but a little hard. Not as soft and friendly as I thought he's be.

...Gene Autry. My dad was a big fan, she won Gene's ashes on eBay and keeps him in her pocket book. The whole Trigger in the trunk thing never worked out... :huh:

oh...help me.....dear God.....was actually reading that for a minute and thinking it was true - pondering it - and then read Richard's signature and Bev's question

OMG I am freakin DYING HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I LOVE FULL MOONS.................................. :D:D:D:D:ph34r:

I did find his back legs but had to buy them seperately. Don't understand why they were more expensive. I'll pet him for your mom. He's very sweet and quiet.

When he wouldn't fit in the trunk mom cut the back legs off, then realized he still wasn't gonna fit. Dad wanted to make a coffee table out of them, but "Two legs does not a table make". :(

Dad tried duct tape, it just kept chafing Trigger's *ss. Finally he gave up and made a nifty pair of lamps(complete with 10 gallon shades) and sold them on eBay to help pay for Gene. (times were tough)

Nice Avatar by the way. Happier times (sniffle)

I'm a little confused. Wasn't it Roy Rogers' horse that was named "Trigger"??????? Gene Autry's horse was named "Champion" (he called him "Champ). Full moon and all . . . . . . .

Well of course everybody know that, everybody but mom. Imagine her dismay when she presented Trigger to dad..."um thanks honey, wrong horse" :(

Champion (Autry's horse, for those of you who don't know <_< ) rode off into the sunset with Silver and Mr. Ed, never to be seen again. Thank God we still have Trigger!

Forgive me for jumping in here....but I love Mr Ed and so do my kids. He lives on in the DVD world. Shhhh, don't tell my kids he's dead. They have a hard enough time with Lassie. Lassie is still alive since it's the same dog year after year right? I know, they've used like 5 Lassies, not including current ones.

What am I doing posting here :blink: I don't have time to keep up on so many active threads! :wacko:

Is her around? Here it is "The Worm Song"

Have you ever felt this way? Most of us have felt "friendless" at some point, but when you do, remember that the feeling will probably pass. And in the meantime, we DON'T advise you to "go eat worms"!

Nobody likes me, everybody hates me,

Guess I'll go eat worms,

Long, thin, slimy ones; Short, fat, juicy ones,

Itsy, bitsy, fuzzy wuzzy worms.

Down goes the first one, down goes the second one,

Oh how they wiggle and squirm.

Up comes the first one, up comes the second one,

Oh how they wiggle and squirm.

Version II

Nobody loves me, everybody hates me

Think I'll go and eat worms

Long ones, short ones, fat ones, thin ones

See how they wriggle and squirm

I bite off the heads, and suck out the juice

And throw the skins away

Nobody knows how fat I grow

On worms three times a day

Ohh...nobody loves me.

Version III:

Nobody likes me, everybody hates me,

Think I'll go eat worms.

Big fat juicy ones, Eensie weensy squeensy ones,

See how they wiggle and squirm.

Chomp off their heads and squeeze out the juice

And throw their tails away

Nobody knows how I survive

On worms three times a day.

Version IV:

Nobody likes me, everybody hates me

I'm goin' down the garden to eat worms

Long thin slimy ones, short fat fuzzy ones

Ooey gooey, ooey gooey worms

Long thin slimy ones slip down easily

Short fat fuzzy ones don't

Short fat fuzzy ones stick to your teethlink to a non-NIEHS site

And the juice goes slurpin' (slurping noise) down your throat

Version V:

Nobody likes me, everybody hates me,

think I'll go eat worms...

big fat juicy ones, little slimy skinny ones,

hope they don't have germs!"

My tummy feels like I DOD eat worms today! Miss you Vincent, Beverly

      Is this celiac?

      @Hmart, The reason why your intestinal damage was so severe, yet your tTg IgA was so minimal can be due to cutting back on gluten (and food in general) due to worsening symptoms. The tTg IgA antibodies are made in the intestines. While three grams of gluten per day for several weeks are enough to cause gastrointestinal symptoms, ten grams of gluten...

      Is this celiac?

      Other diseases, medical conditions, medications and even (for some people) some non-gluten foods can cause villous atrophy. There is also something called refractory celiac disease but it is pretty uncommon.

      ttg iga high (646 mg/dl) other results are normal

      knitty kitty asks a very relevant question. So many people make the mistake of experimenting with the gluten free diet or even a reduced gluten diet soon before getting formally tested.

Is supplementation for celiacs always necessary even though you remain gluten-free and you’re healing as shown on endoscopy? I also take D3, mag glycinate, and try to get calcium through diet. I am trying to bump up my energy level because I don’t sleep very well and feel fatigued quite often. I’m now hopeful that adding the Benfotiamine and B-complex will help. I really appreciate your explanation and advice! Thanks again Knitty Kitty!

      @Hmart, The reason why your intestinal damage was so severe, yet your tTg IgA was so minimal can be due to cutting back on gluten (and food in general) due to worsening symptoms.  The tTg IgA antibodies are made in the intestines.  While three grams of gluten per day for several weeks are enough to cause gastrointestinal symptoms, ten grams of gluten per day for for several weeks are required to provoke sufficient antibody production so that the antibodies move out of the intestines and into the blood stream where they can be measured in blood tests.  Since you reduced your gluten consumption before testing, the antibody production went down and did not leave the intestines, hence lower than expected tTg IgA.   Still having abdominal pain and other symptoms this far out is indicative of nutritional deficiencies.  With such a severely damaged small intestine, you are not absorbing sufficient nutrients, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1, so your body us burning stored fat and even breaking down muscle to fuel your body.   Yes, it is a very good idea to supplement with vitamins and minerals during healing.  The eight essential B vitamins are water soluble and easily lost with diarrhea.  The B vitamins all work together interconnectedly, and should be supplemented together.  Taking vitamin supplements provides your body with greater opportunity to absorb them.  Thiamine and the other B vitamins cannot be stored for long, so they must be replenished every day.  Thiamine tends to become depleted first which leads to Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a condition that doctors frequently fail to recognize.  Symptoms of Gastrointestinal Beriberi are abdominal pain and nausea, but neuropathy can also occur, as well as body and joint pain, headaches and more.  Heart rhythm disruptions including tachycardia are classic symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  Heart attack patients are routinely administered thiamine now.   Blood tests for vitamins are notoriously inaccurate.  You can have "normal" blood levels, while tissues and organs are depleted.  Such is the case with Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a thiamine deficiency in the digestive tract.  Eating a diet high in carbohydrates, like rice, starches, and sugar, can further deplete thiamine.  The more carbohydrates one eats, the more thiamine is required per calorie to turn carbs into energy.  Burning stored fats require less thiamine, so in times of thiamine shortage, the body burns fat and muscles instead.  Muscle wasting is a classic symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  A high carbohydrate diet may also promote SIBO and/or Candida infection which can also add to symptoms.  Thiamine is required to keep SIBO and Candida in check.   Thiamine works with Pyridoxine B 6, so if Thiamine is low and can't interact with Pyridoxine, the unused B 6 accumulates and shows up as high.   Look into the Autoimmune Protocol diet.  Dr. Sarah Ballantyne is a Celiac herself.  Her book "The Paleo Approach" has been most helpful to me.  Following the AIP diet made a huge improvement in my symptoms.  Between the AIP diet and correcting nutritional deficiencies, I felt much better after a long struggle with not feeling well.   Do talk to your doctor about Gastrointestinal Beriberi.  Share the article linked below. Thiamine, gastrointestinal beriberi and acetylcholine signaling https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12014454/ Keep us posted on your progress!
