I Am So Upset & In Tears....

I am so sick to my stomach right now. Yesterday I noticed that my wedding ring was missing AFTER I did stuff like garden, clean dog puke up and chores around the house. I am not sure where it's at. I went through all the weeds by hand, fortunatly they are still in the garden. I went through the trash by hand four times. I went so far as to get my father in laws medal detector, but still no luck. I don't even know where to begin. I told hubby not to throw anything out or do anything different until I find it. I think it may haven fallen off when I took my gloves off. Wish me luck. I hope I find it.

I'm sooo sorry! This is probably silly question, but did you look INSIDE the glove? I've actually had that happen with my winter gloves.

Sorry to hear about your wedding ring. I too have lost my ring in my gloves. I hope it turns up. The first gift my fiance gave me was this very nice diamond heart necklace. It fell off the chain at the hospital I worked at 3 years ago. I have not found it since. I cried while I searched for it. He did buy another almost alike to that for christmas that year. I appreciated the kindness, but I long for the original. It had memories with it that cannot be replaced.

Good Luck, I hope you find it soon. I'm sure you have already done this at least 15 times, but take a deep breath, clear your mind & then look in the first place that you thought it might be, but didn't find it when you looked the first time - pockets? maybe you took it off sub-consciously to keep it safe? I lost mine while gardening. I looked through a bunch of pots, all over my garden, pretty much tore up my patio / gardens. After about 3 hours of dumping out trash cans, pots, checking gloves, I sat down with that first giant pot that my mind was telling me was the most likely culprit - again - slowly & methodically. That was where it was. I know how heart-breaking it is - Good luck again !

Ooh, so sorry to hear you lost your ring, I hope you find it. :(

I lost my wedding ring at the dojo once, we have a policy of no jewellery of any kind on the mat (for safety reasons), and I'd forgotten to take it off in the dressing room. So I put the ring on a window sill and forgot it there, and later it wasn't there any more! :o

My husband was understandably a little bit upset about this, but when I got an exact replica for my birthday I knew he'd forgiven me... :wub:

The funny thing is, half a year later someone found the ring! Someone had just put it on an even higher windowsill, and it had been lying there all the time. So now I have two. :)

I feel very bad hearing this news. I lost my husband's NAVY ring prior to our engagement. I was in ladies room and I don't recall if I took it off and placed it on counter or if I had it off and was drying my hands with papertowel and tossed it out with the paper towel; but I lost it and cried my eyes out ever since...if I think about it long enough I will start to cry again and I lost it in 1977! Of course it never surfaced even after I posted a $25 reward for it. It was irreplaceable...as it was issued for his year/class only.

:) I am so happy! I found my wedding ring last night. I unearthed it last night with a rake. It was where I new I lost it, but It took forever to finally find it. It had been missing since last week. This last week was really hard for me. I lost my ring and then the very next day my dad was in ICU for three days. My dad is finally out of the hospital and doing well. Finding my ring was like the icing on the cake. I never missed something so much in my life.

Awesome you found the ring, glad to hear your dad is home and doing much better. My mom was so ill last week, I didn't know what we would do so I understood how you are feeling.

      Blood tests for thiamine are unreliable. The nutrients from your food get absorbed into the bloodstream and travel around the body. So, a steak dinner can falsely raise thiamine blood levels in the following days. Besides, thiamine is utilized inside cells where stores of thiamine are impossible to measure.

      Neither of them were anemic 6 months after the Celiac diagnosis. His other vitamin levels (d, B12) were never low. My daughters levels were normal after the first 6 months. Is the thiamine test just called thiamine?

      Thank you! That's helpful. My kids eat very little processed food. Tons of fruit, vegetables, cheese, eggs and occasional red meat. We do a lot of rice and bean bowls, stir fry, etc. Do you think with all the fruits and vegetables they need a vitamin supplement? I feel like their diet is pretty healthy and balanced with very limited processed food....

      Anti-endomysial Antibody (EMA) Testing

      That is interesting, and it's the first time I heard about the umbilical cord beings used for that test. Thanks for sharing!

      Blood tests for thiamine are unreliable.  The nutrients from your food get absorbed into the bloodstream and travel around the body.  So, a steak dinner can falsely raise thiamine blood levels in the following days.  Besides, thiamine is utilized inside cells where stores of thiamine are impossible to measure. A better test to ask for is the Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test.  But even that test has been questioned as to accuracy.  It is expensive and takes time to do.   Because of the discrepancies with thiamine tests and urgency with correcting thiamine deficiency, the World Health Organization recommends giving thiamine for several weeks and looking for health improvement.  Thiamine is water soluble, safe and nontoxic even in high doses.   Many doctors are not given sufficient education in nutrition and deficiency symptoms, and may not be familiar with how often they occur in Celiac disease.  B12 and Vitamin D can be stored for as long as a year in the liver, so not having deficiencies in these two vitamins is not a good indicator of the status of the other seven water soluble B vitamins.  It is possible to have deficiency symptoms BEFORE there's changes in the blood levels.   Ask your doctor about Benfotiamine, a form of thiamine that is better absorbed than Thiamine Mononitrate.  Thiamine Mononitrate is used in many vitamins because it is shelf-stable, a form of thiamine that won't break down sitting around on a store shelf.  This form is difficult for the body to turn into a usable form.  Only thirty percent is absorbed in the intestine, and less is actually used.   Thiamine interacts with all of the other B vitamins, so they should all be supplemented together.  Magnesium is needed to make life sustaining enzymes with thiamine, so a magnesium supplement should be added if magnesium levels are low.   Thiamine is water soluble, safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  There's no harm in trying.

      Yes, I do think they need a Thiamine supplement at least. Especially since they eat red meat only occasionally. Most fruits and vegetables are not good sources of Thiamine.  Legumes (beans) do contain thiamine.  Fruits and veggies do have some of the other B vitamins, but thiamine B 1 and  Cobalamine B12 are mostly found in meats.  Meat, especially organ meats like liver, are the best sources of Thiamine, B12, and the six other B vitamins and important minerals like iron.   Thiamine has antibacterial and antiviral properties.  Thiamine is important to our immune systems.  We need more thiamine when we're physically ill or injured, when we're under stress emotionally, and when we exercise, especially outside in hot weather.  We need thiamine and other B vitamins like Niacin B 3 to keep our gastrointestinal tract healthy.  We can't store thiamine for very long.  We can get low in thiamine within three days.  Symptoms can appear suddenly when a high carbohydrate diet is consumed.  (Rice and beans are high in carbohydrates.)  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function, so symptoms can wax and wane depending on what one eats.  The earliest symptoms like fatigue and anxiety are easily contributed to other things or life events and dismissed.   Correcting nutritional deficiencies needs to be done quickly, especially in children, so their growth isn't stunted.  Nutritional deficiencies can affect intelligence.  Vitamin D deficiency can cause short stature and poor bone formation.   Is your son taking anything for the anemia?  Is the anemia caused by B12 or iron deficiency?

      Thank you! That's helpful. My kids eat very little processed food. Tons of fruit, vegetables, cheese, eggs and occasional red meat. We do a lot of rice and bean bowls, stir fry, etc.  Do you think with all the fruits and vegetables they need a vitamin supplement? I feel like their diet is pretty healthy and balanced with very limited processed food. The only processed food they eat regularly is a bowl of Cheerios here and there.  Could shaking legs be a symptom of just a one-time gluten exposure? I guess there's no way to know for sure if they're getting absolutely zero exposure because they do go to school a couple times a week. We do homeschool but my son does a shared school 2x a week and my daughter does a morning Pre-K 3 x a week.  At home our entire house is strictly gluten free and it is extremely rare for us to eat out. If we eat at someone else's house I usually just bring their food. When we have play dates we bring all the snacks, etc. I try to be really careful since they're still growing. They also, of course, catch kids viruses all the time so I  want to make sure I know whether they're just sick or they've had gluten. It can be pretty confusing when they're pretty young to even be explaining their symptoms!
