I have been here on this site for over a year and I have gotten the most help that anyone dx with Celiac can have. The answers aren't always here, not always for a solution, as best we try, but also, which is most important ...for the support and life shared experiences.

I remember when this site was a fun place to go when you were feeling bad. Someone always seemed to pick you up and made you feel better. There were friends that made you feel better, even though you felt like crap.

There are a number of people with an alternative life style on this site. I do think that all should be open to a fluid life of others.

AND THIS IS THE FULL MO0N OF OCTOBER, ANY ONE TO BOOGY DOWN?? :lol::lol:

Are You calling ME alternative?

I said it before and I'll say it again:

Trick or treat

Smell my feet

Give me something

Good to eat

I don't care

If you don't care

I'll pull down your underwear :P

How does a man show that

he is planning for the future?

He buys two cases of beer.

They better be gluten free!

This one is from my 75 year old uncle:

the New Living Will Form

I, __________________________, being of sound mind and body, do not wish to

be kept alive indefinitely by artificial means.

Under no circumstances should my fate be put in the hands of pinhead

politicians who couldn't pass ninth-grade biology if their lives depended

on it or lawyers/doctors interested in simply running up the bills.

If a reasonable amount of time passes and I fail to ask for at least one of

the following:

______a Bloody Mary,

______a Margarita

______a Scotch and soda

______a Martini

______a Vodka and Tonic

______a Steak

______Lobster or crab legs

______The remote control

______a Bowl of ice cream

______The sports page

______Chocolate

it should be presumed that I won't ever get better.

When such a determination is reached, I hereby instruct my appointed person

and attending physicians to pull the plug, reel in the tubes and call it a

day. At this point it is time to call the New Orleans Jazz Funeral Band

to come do their thing at my funeral, and ask all of my

friends to raise their glasses to toast the good times we ha ve had.

I also hear that in Ireland they have a Nursing Home with a Pub. The

patients are happier and they have a lot more visitors. (Sounds like my

kind of Nursing Home)

mommida Enthusiast

A nursing home with a pub? Sounds like a good way to trick the old crows into the nursing home, but kind enough that they won't mind in the long run. <_<:D:D

:lol::lol::lol: Too fun!!

On a serious note--

Jake was dying. His wife sat at the bedside.

He looked up and said weakly:

"I have something I must confess."

"There's no need to," his wife replied.

"No," he sisisted,

"I want to die in peace, I slept with your sister,

her best friend, your best friend, and your mother!"

"I know," she replied,

"now just rest

and let the poison work."

A woman came home, screeching her car into the driveway, and ran into the house. She slammed the door and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Honey, pack your bags. I won the lottery!"

The husband said, "OMG!! What should I pack, beach stuff or mountain stuff?"

"Doesn't matter," she said, "Just get the *ell out."

ROTFLMAO

I need a joke, okay here's one.

A young man enters a monastery and is given the task of copying manuscripts and as he is doing this he begins to wonder how many times they have been copied and whether or not anyone ever made a mistake and what if he is just copying mistakes. It bothers him. He goes to the priest and tells him and the priest says, "don't worry, just do your work" but he can't, he thinks about it all the time and so one day when he sees the Abbot he tells him his fear and the Abbot says, "don't worry, just do your work". Later that day no-one can find the Abbot and then someone remembered seeing him going down into the tombs where the original manuscripts were stored and they go looking for him. As they reach the top of the stairs they hear sobbing and they run down the stairs to find the Abbot very distraught, "what is wrong, what is wrong" they cry and the Abbot through his tears says, "it says CELEBRATE". :ph34r:

An Irish Priest and a Rabbi get into a car accident. They both get out of their cars and stumble over to the side of the road. The Rabbi says, "Oy vey! What a wreck!" The Priest asks him, "Are you all right Rabbi?" The Rabbi responds, "Just a little shaken."

The Priest pulls a flask of whiskey from his coat and says, "Here, drink some of this it will calm your nerves." The Rabbi takes the flask and drinks it down and says, "What are we going to tell the police?" "Well," the Priest says, "I don't know what your aft' to be tellin' 'em but I'll be tellin' them I wasn't the one drinking."

This is just an observation ... but I only clicked this by accident, I wasn't going to open this thread at all...

Since MommaGoose is one of those complaining about "atmosphere" then this thread does nothing to help...

I realise now its a joke....I didn't until I opened it so I just thought "ho hum..another thread I won't bother with"

if someone wants to copy this then perhaps all those who ignore me can alsdo see this?

No expense at all. :lol::ph34r::lol: No seriousness, as far as I can tell either.

What is an ignore list?

Canadian Karen Community Regular

Okay, going out on a limb here cuz I'm pretty well at my wit's end and fed up.

I think what Lisa was trying to attempt to do was lighten the mood a little bit, because quite frankly, there has been quite a bit of anal retentiveness on this board lately. It seems that no matter what you post, SOMEONE is offended. It's getting to the point where you are afraid to post ANYTHING, cuz someone will chime in that has taken it the wrong way and is in someway offended. If I posted asking people who have brown eyes if they are more sensitive to light, I am pretty well guaranteed that SOMEONE will post that they feel offended, because they have blue eyes, and feel left out that they can't contribute!

Sheesh! Lighten up folks! Lately it feels like everyone is permanently PMSing!

Okay, go ahead, bash away at me now......

      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.

      Hi,  I care for my seven year old daughter with Celiac. After watching her for months, I have figured out that she has problem with two kinds of fats- animal fat and cooking oils. It basically makes her intestine sore enough that she feels spasms when she is upset. It only happens on days when she has eaten more fat than her usual every day diet. (Her usual diet has chia seeds, flaxseeds, and avocado/ pumpkin seeds for fat and an occasional chicken breast.) I stopped using cooking oils last year, and when I reintroduced eggs and dairy, both of which I had held off for a few months thinking it was an issue of the protein like some Celiac patients habe mentioned to be the case, she has reacted in the same fashion as she does with excess fats. So now I wonder if her reaction to dairy and eggs is not really because of protein but fat.   I don't really have a question, just wondering if anyone finds this familiar and if it gets better with time.  Thank you.

      Hello, My name is Chanda and you are not the only one that gose through the same things. I have found that what's easiest for me is finding a few meals each week that last. I have such severe reactions to gluten that it shuts my entire body down. I struggle everyday with i can't eat enough it feels like, when I eat more I lose more weight. Make sure that you look at medication, vitamins and shampoo and conditioner also. They have different things that are less expensive at Walmart.

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.
