New Years Eve

Oh heavens no! Not Camel Poops! It's much too drab there.

We live in the Slocan Valley about 45 minutes drive from Nelson ... or Castlegar, depends which way you turn at the junction.

I hear a Hyesterectomy isn't quite as envasive as it used to be. I had one years ago. I hope the recovery is shorter now!

Would you believe my mom had a total in 1946 .... could you imagine the surgery then! She almost didn't recover. :(

Take something off, dance nekkid in front of your husband and celebrate the freedom from the expense of feminine products. Rejoice

!

I love your spirit, Rusla :D I don't want to give the poor guy a heart attack :lol:

:lol: He'd tell me to get out of the way, he can't see the puck! :lol:

Besides, I have to go outside to get downstairs, it's a might chilly out. :lol:

Yes, hysterectomies now they do through the navel not like mine 2o years ago. Ah Nelson, home of the Freedomite Dukabours...they should have taught you how to get your clothes off and dance naked. Yes, I would not wish to live in Camel Poops, it is always depressing there unlike othe places in BC.

Psst, I think Thor drank all of my champagne that drunken sot of a cat.

Probably, like most other things, they've streamlined the whole procedure. I will come home after only 2 days--but the total recouperation is still about 6 weeks.

Wow--1946, I imagine it was much more dangerous then.

Viola 1 Rookie

Yes, the old sect of doukabours have pretty much died out now. The younger ones just get into mischief out of bordom and then blame the religion.

When we moved here 30 years ago though there were signs in all the school staff room about what to do in case of a bombing. That was scary with our kids going there.

But it is a very beautiful place of lakes and rivers and golf courses :lol:

Viola 1 Rookie

Oh ... does that mean that I have to give Sheba some wine to catch up with the drunken cat? How about cat nip, did your cats get some for Christmas?

Yup, 1946 surgery was pretty primitive. Mom had scars across her whole belly. I was born at home and the drunken old doctor didn't clean her out properly, so she got gangarine in the womb. That must have been terrible. Imagine, three kids and all that at the age of 20! Wow.

Anyway, we must go on to something much more festive.

Six weeks is normal recovery on a hysterectomy but the operation isn't as severe.

When I was a kid all the Dukabours used to take off their clothes and burn their houses because they said god told them to do that. He never told them to do it in the winter though.

Save me, save me..........I won't make it. I think that I'm going to bail.

What better a night to talk to some great buds with jammies on. Toast the new year and send wishes for good health, fortune and happiness to all of you. Kisses to you on the midnight hour. :)

A wonderfu new year to all of you.

Yall are cracking me up! :)

Or maybe its because I've had a weeeee bit too much wine.

Either one is plausible ;)

Happy Happy New Years to some of my favorite Celiac ladies!

xoxo

jerseyangel Proficient

Yes Shirley--you're right! Something more festive--anything :lol:

(But your poor mom--that is scary stuff. Glad she pulled through :) )

Only 35 minutes left (here). I think I'm gonna make it this year!

Viola 1 Rookie

Yes, the last fire they set was about 3 years ago, but it was a government building here in the valley that Selkirk college uses, or used, they distroyed it.

Their homes were common, and like you said, always when it was warm enough to rebuild. :lol: But all government property was fair game as well.

And when that happened you had a court room full of naked people ... mostly women. Strange, I would have thought women had more sense. :rolleyes:

jerseyangel Proficient

Hi Laura! A little tipsy, are we??? :lol:

Happy New Year to my cyber daughter!

Rusla Enthusiast

As I work tomorrow. I must bid you all adieu and wish each and every one of you a very Happy and prosperou gluten-free New Year.

Viola 1 Rookie

Happy New Year Rusla!!! And to everyone of you lovely ladies!

I'm a little slow here on phone hook up :lol:

jerseyangel Proficient

Happy New Year Rusla! Glad to have spent a little time with ya :)

Bummer that you have to work tomorrow, though :angry:

Viola 1 Rookie

Yes, working tomorrow is a bummer.

We are going out to the local restaurant for dinner. A friend owns it and does a nice safe dinner for me.

2 1/2 hours left here. :lol:

Rusla Enthusiast

It is triple time plus a lieu day which is like a weeks worth of pay for me.

jerseyangel Proficient

Dinner out sounds nice! I'm still leary of eating out. That's actually one of my resolutions--to get out more and back into life a bit.

jerseyangel Proficient

Then it's definately worth it!

Viola 1 Rookie

Wow, for triple pay, i would work too! Good for you .... Hope it's not a hard day though

We go out a fair amount. There is a Chinese restaurant in Nelson that makes gluten free Chinese food, including chow mein, sweet and sour pork, chicken balls, fried rice etc. And quite a few of their soups are gluten free, and best of all gluten free fish and chips that are better than the normal ones!

jerseyangel Proficient

M-m-m, that gluten-free Chinese food sounds wonderful! I could go for some right now, actually! :P

Viola 1 Rookie

Me too, but they don't deliver this far out :(:lol:

Anyway, we will go into Nelson sometime in the next week or two and then I will have some :rolleyes:

I haven't been off the property since the 18th ... it's time to go out and do something.

Rebecca47 Contributor

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior? 
    • trents
      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 Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      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 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.

      Are Bobresmill gluten free oats ok for sensitive celiacs?
    • jenniber
      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.
