Glad you have had a couple of better days.. I hope 07 brings you months of better days... I wish I could have a piece of that pizza!!!! lucky you......

I guess there are no pork & kraut lovers out there!!!!!We were alway told that we must eat that on new year's so we would have good health & prosperity in the new year.. I can remember as a kid I hated that meal, now after all the years we love it. now I tell my grandkids the same story as I was told years ago.

9:32 & counting. Husband pouring the wine, the candles are lit!!!!!! home alone , home alone, good night!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh yes, and my beautiful Sheba is ready to party too. And yes Rusla, Sheba is a strange name for a Shiba Inu, but her regestered name is "Rokita's Gal Sheba" so that's what she ended up with. Sheba is spelled like the Queen of Sheba, which she thinks she is at times :lol:

So, for each and every one of you, I hope you have a magnificent gluten-free, prosperous and fruitful new year. May things get easier for everyone in this upcoming year.

Too bad we don't have IRC capabilities.

Aye missy. If the bat is a vampire bat and he bit a gluten-eating creature then the gluten would be in his head and teeth. HOwever, I am watching one of my favorite movies while doing this, I am drunk, semi nekkid and almost drank my whole 200ml bottle of cordon negro champagne. Top that.

Alright, I give up. I admit it was a terrible attempt at a joke. If I was any good at comedy I wouldn't do what I do now....come to think of it, I'm not very good at doing that either.

So Shirley, what is the Queen of Sheba the Shiba Inu wearing for New Years Eve. Is she dressed in her finest fur coat?

You could never tell maybe the bat head is stuffed with a bread stuffing, served up with flour laden gravey on a slice French bread. My gosh, look at all the gluten in the bat head.

:o Gee, I'm in my nightclothes with a bottle of spring water watching QVC. My husband (as I predicted days ago) is snoring on the couch downstairs. You got me beat by a mile :P

She is dressed in her finest winter coat...a couple inches thick and a darker red than her picture. She tends to fade to a red tip cream in the summer <_<

Then catch up. what you waiting for...next year? Take something off and we could almost be even.

That would be the bleaching of the sun.

You know, you're right! I'm having a hysterectomy in 3 days--I should have a drink and let loose a little. I think I'm just wound too tight :lol:

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

!

Shirley, I suggest you do the same, it will shake him up. He will wonder what's come over you. Make this the year of being unpredictable.

      Opinions on my test results/symptoms

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Villi damage is caused by celiac disease, which does not happen in NCGS, although some people with NCGS do have elevated antibody levels. Some people with NCGS who have the genes for celiac disease may end up developing celiac disease, so in some people NCGS may be a precursor to celiac disease, but more research needs to be done on NCGS. Both low iron and vitamin D are common symptoms of celiac disease. Also, regarding beer:

      Vaccines

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It’s true that some vaccines contain small amounts of preservatives, stabilizers, or adjuvants to ensure their safety and effectiveness. For example: Thimerosal: A preservative that contains ethylmercury (not to be confused with methylmercury, which is toxic). Most routine vaccines no longer contain thimerosal, except for some flu vaccines in multi-dose vials. Aluminum: Used in very small amounts as an adjuvant to boost the immune response. The amount is far below levels considered harmful, but if you suspect an aluminum allergy, it’s worth discussing with your doctor. Sugar alcohols: These are sometimes used as stabilizers, but they are generally well-tolerated. If you have a known intolerance, you can ask about specific ingredients in each vaccine. Since you mentioned an intolerance to metals and jewelry, it’s a good idea to follow up with allergy testing, as you planned. This can help identify specific metals (e.g., nickel, aluminum) to avoid. Your doctor can then guide you on whether any vaccine ingredients might be a concern. Since the Mayo Clinic has already identified potential allergies, it might be helpful to consult an allergist or immunologist. They can review your medical history, perform tests, and provide personalized advice on vaccines and their ingredients. While it’s important to address your intolerances, it’s also worth considering the risks of not being vaccinated. Many vaccine-preventable diseases can have serious consequences, especially for those with underlying health conditions.

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Manaan2, I was on Miralax for several months after I crushed three vertebrae and fractured my hip.  The compression fractures of my vertebrae affected the Vagus nerve that stimulates digestion and intestinal movement, peristalsis. Miralax just didn't relieve the constipation I was experiencing at all.  Nothing budged.  I tried Milk of Magnesia (magnesium oxide) which pulls water into the digestive tract, and found that rather harsh and dehydrating.   Bad idea. I was already taking thiamine in various forms, Benfotiamine, TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl  disulfude), Lipothiamine and Allithiamine.  Click on my name, then Activities in the pull down menu to get to my blog to learn more about my journey with thiamine.   Since we need more thiamine when we are physically ill and emotionally stressed, I decided to focus on TTFD,  Benfotiamine, and magnesium l-threonate.  Within a week of increasing my doses a bit, my constipation was gone.  It took several more months to heal the compressed nerve damage.  For pain, I take a combination of TTFD, Pyridoxine B 6, and  Cobalamine B12 which together have an analgesic effect.  I can't function with pharmaceutical pain killers, besides they cause constipation.   Mechanisms of action of vitamin B1 (thiamine), B6 (pyridoxine), and B12 (cobalamin) in pain: a narrative review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35156556/ Yes, I did just stop the Miralax, but I wasn't on it as long as your daughter.  Yes, there's a difference between adults and children.  Yes, my circumstances were different than your daughter's, but thiamine deficiency does affect the nerves and the brain.  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function (which activates the Vagus nerve and controls digestion).   I recommend you visit Dr. Chandler Marrs' website, hormonesmatter.com.  Dr. Marrs worked with Dr. Derrick Longsdale, a pioneer in thiamine research, specifically with children and autism spectrum disorders.  She has been very helpful to me when I reached out to her.  She would be better able to guide you about your daughter's care. https://hormonesmatter.com/sibo-ibs-constipation-thiamine-deficiency/#google_vignette Do stay in touch, please.  You can start another thread or personal message me any time.  My heart goes out to you, your husband, and especially your daughter.   Namaste

      @knitty kitty  The information you've provided is invaluable!  I have a lot more homework to do before we make the official switch but you have significantly increased my hope that we can get her off Miralax (she started at 3 years old and is almost 8!).  This weekend my husband and I plan to solidify all the details for a start point, then adjust as we go along.  I realize that everyone's body is different, then there's also the fact that she's a child but just out of curiosity if you don't mind sharing and if you'd rather not, no problem at all-how long did you take Miralax before switching and when you switched, did you just completely stop the Miralax or was there a period where you did Miralax and the supplements?  I plan to research that piece this weekend but just curious what you did.

      Opinions on my test results/symptoms

      By BIg Nodge · Posted

      Scott, thanks so much for the thoughtful replies. My doctor did actually just re-order thyroid labs to see what is going on with my TPOs. I agree that will be interesting information.  I think I know the answer to this, but as far as the biopsy . . .. that would be quite conclusive as far as celiac goes, but a negative result would not rule out NCGS, correct? Does NCGS also cause damage to the lower intestine/leaky gut?  I appreciate the thought that I should be open-minded to other causes. I did not have dysautonomia on my radar, so I will look into that. From a quick scan at the potential symptoms it seems like almost anyone could convince themselves they have it, very broad! I can see why that is a tricky one to diagnose. I did also show low vitamin D, I'm in New England so that is somewhat common. I have a memory of low iron on some lab result as well but I can't find it, so I'll look into that. My cholesterol is high too, so working on that.  While the initial adjustment was tough, I have actually adapted fairly well to going gluten-free at home. The tough part for me is I love eating out and traveling, so that has been a challenge. I suppose if the answer ends up being NCGS then I could maintain a mostly gluten-free diet but also experiment with the occasional splurges. Snowboarding just doesn't feel right without a beer in the lodge . . ... cider is just not the same!  Thanks again.
