I've actually never bought "the protection" :lol: I was embarassed enough by the Immodium....

DingoGirl Enthusiast
I can remember those days... I used to throw them up on the counter, look the cashier right in the eye think to myself "yeah, I'm getting some tonight - you got a problem with that?"

:P

:lol::lol:

It was more of the combination....drinking, pooping, sex :D .....considering it was ALL we bought (around 10 pm on a Friday night). It looked rather "amusing"

:lol::lol:

Now there's a date for ya! :P

yup, I'd take it.... ;) (not necessarily in that order - probably pooping last)

She's not ill-tempered though.

Someone should send her a pm inviting her to this thread. Laura could use another ish-ish. Were there any other ish-ish's?

I'm an ish-ish!! About half-wayish to fortyish :lol:

I was going to try to stay and play but I need to go lay down; I was an idiot last night and ate something when I wasn't sure if it was safe or not....I'm paying for it now :(

Look forward to catching up later!

You guys :lol::lol::lol::lol:

hahahaha, Patti, that made me laugh.

One of my personal favorites was buying beer (for hubby), Imodium in large quantities (for me), and um, "protection" (for both of us, so yall figure that one out.) I stood in line with a straight face and was beet red.

Back before I was Catholic (now it's all a matter of timing things), the funniest was when Adam bought a bottle of wine, a box of "protection", and a package of diapers!!! :lol:

Jessica,

Hope you feel better quickly. Don't be too hard on yourself.

Still premature posting....

Reading about nail polish and movies. :D

I'm like Liz....a grown-up TOMBOY....I could never deal with nail polish...plus I was always biting my nails off anyway. All I have to say is thank Gaaaaawd I wasnt swallowing them! GROSS! :blink: I think I have enough problems already...balls of nails in my tummy....now that would really SUCK! (as if my other stuff doesnt suck :rolleyes:)

When I hit 30 for some reason I became more girly...dunno what happened. :huh: Yes...I'm still tomboy but now I actually have dresses and femine clothes....I also wear bras now. Real bras...not sport bras. :P

Oh...and then I started painting my nails....ALL THE TIME. :o

My nails grow pretty fast and decent now that I dont chew them off....thing is that since I got sick they are kinda weird. Like SUPER hard...cant explain it....they dont really break cuz they're almost indestructible now. My mom says this is a good thing....I'm thinking NO....not a good sign. If they do break its almost like breaking a piece of plastic. Part of its broken and I have a hard time just breaking the whole thing off so I can just get on with my day.

I dont paint my nails anymore cuz the fumes would probably make me delerious...BUT I miss painting them. :(

When I used to wear polish it would only last about 2 days and they'd be all chipped...looking like I had put the polish on a month before. Even though I'm sensitive I'd still try to wear polish if it at least lasted longer than 2 days. I cant be reapplying the stuff that frequently....so NO polish for me.

I do wear lipgloss....clear only though. I wear it over my lipstick....I cant have no gloss on my lips...it drives me crazy.

Favorites movie....I'll have to ponder this. I LOVE romantic comedies...suspense, its all good except the Sci-Fi stuff....I cant deal with that. Romantic comedies though....even though they are WAY too predictable. :)

What else???

Oh yeah...Susan NOOOOO....You musnt get sucked into the Krispy Kreme donuts world! Who knows what could happen??? :unsure:

Think about the nuggets addiction....what if this happened with gluteny donuts?? Would we ever see you again?? :o

Have to say....I never had a Krispy Kreme. :(

Took the whole thing for granted....thought they'd always be there....putting it off for another day. You never know what you COULD have had...until its gone. <_<

Oh well....when I'm all better I'm headed there myself. I gotta find out if I'm really gluten intolerant at some point right?? Might as well start with a Krispy Kreme donut....my first one ever!! :D

Be back later for more catching up.

CarlaB Enthusiast
I always wondered if that worked...guess not :unsure:

I don't know, I met a woman once who used it, she was older than I was, and her eyes looked GREAT!! There is an old picture of Adam and I on his dresser from 1999, I look older, had bags under my eyes, and my face was puffy. gluten-free is a beauty secret in its own right!

They even use duct tape as a "lift" for their assets.

No, no, no, it's masking tape ... imagine pulling duct tape off!!!! I've used that secret since I was about 16. The first time I did it around hubby, he couldn't imagine what I was doing!!!! :lol: Once at the academy awards one of the stars used a little too much and it was showing! :huh:

OMG--that is SO true! I have a picture that was taken about 5 months before my dx. I was at a function, so I was dressed up, had makeup on and thought I looked ok. I felt awful, though. Anyway, I came across it recently and scanned it onto the computer. What a difference between that and the picture that was my former avatar. The difference in my face was astounding! I wish I could put up a 'before and after.'

My daughter had a friend in HS who made her prom dress out of duct tape and her date made a tux. She said it was really pretty! But, they don't stick it to the body for clothes.

OMG - - came back to my computer for a break from the tedium.....no one here.....where are you guys......scared....very scared....(here it comes)

HOLD ME :o:ph34r::lol:

This is the second time today I've read about this appropriately named bread -- at least they have a sense of humor! WHERE CAN I BUY SOME!!!!

Don't be scared, I am here ... just got back from washing my car -- even had enough energy to vacuum it out and clean the windows!! Then I went to the grocery and bought myself a porterhouse steak -- I always have leftovers for breakfast, nothing as good as steak and eggs!! Now, I need to get cooking!! Then, relaxation for the rest of the evening, I'm supposed to be banking this energy, not using it.

      I had an endoscopy where there was no visible damage but biopsies showed damage. I even asked beforehand if the endoscope had good enough magnification to see the villi!  I hope you get a clear answer from the biopsies.
    • terrymouse
      I have an endoscopy booked for mid-September to test for Celiac. My gp seems convinced it is celiac and I should eliminate gluten right away, but the gastroenterologist I was referred to says if I'm totally gluten-free then they won't be able to detect celiac from the endoscopy, and I should load up on gluten 2 weeks before the test. So I guess I shouldn't eliminate gluten then? Or stop and start again closer to the appointment date. But I'm also on the wait list in case they can get me in sooner, because I'm losing weight. I don't want to have to go back and do it over again if I can help it. They also were unsure if there isn't something else wrong with my stomach, so that's a possibility. I don't have the details but from what I understood my blood tests results were positive but on the low end. So I'm getting mixed up here, do I go gluten-free or not? Would 2.5 months of being gluten-free make any noticable difference?

      Being low in B12, Folate B9, ferritin, zinc and copper sounds consistent with anemia which can often occur with Celiac.  What did your doctor recommend? What about your Vitamin D?  It helps regulate the immune system.  
    • ehb
      @knitty kitty thank you I am exploring these options, I really appreciate all the suggestions and info. I am only slightly below the normal range for folate, zinc and copper. And in the low end of the normal range for B12, ferritin, and vitamin A. I’m good for carotene magnesium and iron, but I’ve been taking 400 mg magnesium daily

      I just had my endoscopy the other day and the doctor took 12 samples because he said if we're going to find something we're going to find it today LOL. But when he got down there, he said everything looked good. So I have it in my head again that it's going to be negative because everyone I've heard of who had a positive biopsy had their endoscopies where the doctor was like yep, I can see the damage. My tissues all look great apparently. So if they come back negative, I'm not sure where to go from here. Could it still be a non-celiac gluten sensitivity even with my blood work? I thought NCGS didn't show up on blood tests. Is it possible that the biopsy still comes back positive even if everything looked healthy on endoscope? I had it done at a big hospital in the state, so I would think they'd have the kind of equipment where they'd be able to see it well. I even have pictures in my report and they don't seem to have the damage that others have seen.
