oh dear gaaaaaaaaaaawd Richard....between this and the Phhhhhhabio photo, you are killing me!!!! :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

ninja gardening....hmmm....lots of digging in hardpan clay, and my back is killing me...maybe I DO need Fabio but he looks too much like a sissy man to do the digging - might get a scratch or ruin his manicure :lol:

Well, you didn't mention you were looking for help in the garden I wouldn't have sent Fabio or Gary (he's the male Glenn Close) Steven hasn't seen his toes in a while so he's not much help either....

Maybe this guy could help. He looks like a hard worker.

It's a good thing I'm the only one home, I don't think my fam would take "nothing" as the answer to what's so funny ;)

There's absolutely nothing wrong with Gary's teeth...it's his head that is all wrong...I think it is caving in from all the baking powder he snorted...

I figured they would beat up Fabio first... :rolleyes:

I'm hoping they would scare off the attack geese. D*mned things, I've got feathers everywhere!

Richard, are you referring to the auxigro protective geese :blink::lol:

Beverly- love the picture of you and your sweet dog :)

Karen I love your kitty picture too, hysterical. Bad hair day for sure!

Melannen, so good to see your smiling face :)

Yes Carla, we must see the braces. How long do you have to have them on for?

They say about two years ... but if I'm good with my rubber bands, it can shorten the time to about 18 months. I think I'm going to be pretty obsessive about wearing my rubber bands!! The system my ortho uses is www.damonbraces.com. He won't use the white ones because the brackets fail, so I have the stainless steel ones.

At first glance I thought that link said "demon braces" :lol::lol:

That shouldn't be too bad, hopefully it will go fast for you. When I was younger I had to have braces, twice, my teeth kept shifting, the little devils. Not fun, but I got through it.

True story...2 summers agoI reshingled my roof on what turned out to be the hottest week of the year. I burn easily, so I didn't take my shirt off (sorry ladies). I worked ffrom sun-up to sun-down for like 4 straight days (alone :( ) at the end of the first day when I was taking a shower the water hit my...er..."lower" back and I just about jumped thru the ceiling. I had burned my upper "ars" because my shirt rode up and my jeans went south...talk about uncomfortable... :blink:

:lol: My true story... was going to fly to see all my old buddies and wanted to look good... so tanned ALOT... and wore my usual bathing suit (similar to what that constuction worker was wearing) :ph34r: but wanted to do the... ha ha look I am so much tanner then you... so used oil and was out on the island... fell asleep tummy down.... I couldn't even hardly sit on the plane... and when I got there had to wear sun dresses and nothing else...ohhh and I did get a ha ha but it was on me.... :lol:

My cousin (a flabby 250lb. male) heard somewhere (in the 1980's) that you could use mayonaise to tan, so he slathered himself in Miracle Whip and sizzled all afternoon and smelled like garbage for about 3 days!

Right now I think they are demon braces ... I can't eat anything! I'm supposed to eat protein and veggies, so I guess I'll be living on scrambled eggs and avocodoes! What's that going to do to my digestive system??!!

Ewwww!! That reminds me of an episode of Seinfeld where Kramer slathers himself w/butter and goes tanning :P

Do they just hurt? Or are you being a good girl and following the rules? I was so bad when I had mine, I think I broke every rule in the book...3 times :rolleyes::D

I hope they start feeling better soon! Mine were always really sore for about 3 days after I had them adjusted

Yes!!! I think that was my favorite episode! Either that one or the one about the "mansier" (or however you spell it :P)

So sorry they hurt Carla :( . I guess you could cook the heck out of the veggies and then puree them, kind of like baby food, brace food.

My favorites..."Festivus, for the rest of us..."

and..."Serenity NOW!!"

All of Kramer's "big ideas" cracked me up. The one with the stronger shower head :lol: or the man bra :lol: Or was that George's dad that came up with that one??

my favorite - Kenny Rogers' Roasters, right under Kramer's apt.....and the sign blowing out at the end, Kramer in the bed with his chicken, and his plaintive cry: "...Kenny? Kenny....." :lol::lol:

Yes!!! I think that was my favorite episode! Either that one or the one about the "mansier" (or however you spell it :P)

the manzier - invented by Mr. Costanza, I think.....is that the one where they're playing pool with their pants off (a la The Maestro), and Estelle Costanza walks in? :lol: maybe a different one......

the manzier (or the bro) appears in the episode about the doorman. Mrs. Costanza walks in on Kramer helping Mr. Costanza try it on :lol:

Doesn't he get a tan, artificial tan, from the light? Or something like that? Kramer is my favorite character.

No soup for you!!

Who can forget George running from the bathroom to the phone, with his pants around his ankles, falling face first on the floor--and Jerry walks in and says "and you want to be my new latex salesman!"

      Bob red mill gluten free oats

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified...

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you...

      High TTG-IgG and Normal TTG-IgA

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease...

The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining it often results in nutritional deficiencies such as anemia. NCGS does not damage the small bowel lining so your history of anemia may suggest you have celiac disease as opposed to NCGS. But either way, a gluten-free diet is in order. NCGS can cause bodily damage in other ways, particularly to neurological systems.
