Wondering What Happened To A Member

I can't remember this member's name and I've been thinking about how she is doing. Her husband had a stroke a few months back, and she wasn't feeling very well. I haven't seen any posts from her and I'm wondering how she is. Does anyone remember her name?

Thanks.

I think you mean Mtndog (Beverly). She's still a member, and I'm happy to say that her husband is doing very well. :)

Patti is correct. If you remember her as a different screen name, it's because she had hers changed.

I think her name change was unintentional. Some kind of computer glitch or something wiped her out as Berneses, if I am not mistaken? Maybe it's someone else I am thinking of - getting old, don't ya know, and the mind goes to mush after awhile!!!

Hugs!

OMG.... so strange. I just randomly happened to click on this one as I was scrolling through the new posts and it was about me! Weird...... I must have ESPN. :P

Yes- Mtndog is the saame Beverly as BERNESES was. It's all me! Scott accidentally deleted my account as BERNESES and I was tired of looking at all caps so I changed my user name.

I am happy to report that I am feeling better (we moved out of what we think was aa mold infested apartment and it HAS helped). My DH is doing fine. He had all his follow-ups with a stroke specialist at Brigham and Women's and is OK .They still don't know why he had the stroke but doubt he will have another one anytime soon as everything looked great (uhmm... except for the half of his cerebellum that was damaged...yeah). He has no real side effects left.

Thanks so much bklyn for asking about me, patti and carla for clarifying and Matilda for saying i was cheery! Hugs, Beverly (aka the old Berneses)

I'm glad you're doing better too, but I had to laugh when you said your husband was doing fine except that half his cerebellum was damaged ... it just sounded funny that a man can go on like normal with half a brain :lol: (all said in good fun, of course, and understanding that it could have been very serious!).

Sounds pretty normal to me - well, most of the men that I have known anyway, are operating on 1/2 a brain MAX! :lol:

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      My only proof

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      Are Lindt chocolate balls gluten free?

      By RUKen · Posted

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.

      Anyone experimented with Taurine supplementation either via electrolyte powders or otherwise? Thanks
