"Daaaa' I heard that!" :lol:

Dear Elye,

ROTFLMAO! :lol::o:):P That would be a Barth quote, I believe? They would be talking about how dangerous the burgers were. He would come up from behind the counter and have his spatula. It was so funny! Then, the children would find out "who" was in the burgers shortly after!

I've been curious about this for some time, and just realized that I now have the perfect resource to get responses from everywhere. Does anyone remember the fantastic (some bias here!) show "You Can't Do That on Television?" It began as a little comedy, much like Laugh-In, filmed here in Ottawa. It ran for ten seasons, and was picked up by Nickelodeon in the late eighties and I believe is still showing internationally through reruns. We got word during this time that it was suddenly noticed in Europe--England, France, and particularly Australia, where it apparently garnered something of a cult following amongst teens. Asia caught on, we heard, and I believe even parts of Russia. I've always wondered how far this little show from Ottawa really went. My dad was the token adult on the show, and played about a hundred different characters. Anyone laugh their heads off through the eighties and nineties at this great little production?

Holy crap! I used to watch this show on Y-TV with my grandpa when I was like 6! :) All I remember is buckets of green slime and millions of skits revolving around "you have to eat your lima beans". Hehe...thanks for the memories! Very cool about your dad!!!

Dear Doll,

The show was definitely a happy part of my young years, too! :) I remember one skit with Valerie (the mom). She completely embarrassed one of the boys. He had a friend over, and his mother made a cake. Valerie said it was to celebrate the anniversary of when he was potty trained. They began eating the cake. Then, she announced that under it was his potty from when he was a child! :o:P:lol: Parents can be embarrassing, but these kids seemed to have it worse than the rest of us!

Sincerely,

Abby Hagyard was Valerie....a great comedy actress. Did you know that Ruth Buzzi (all you veteran Laugh-in fans) appeared on a season of shows? Now THERE was a funny lady.

Dear Elye,

Abby was great! Her characters were the perfect match to your dad's! They complemented each other so well! Ruth Buzzi was a favorite of mine on Laugh In! I loved that show! I wish they would put it back on, too!

I remember going in to watch rehersals of the show, and when Ruth was here taping, she's have everybody in hysterics. There would often be many takes, just because of Ruth keeping everybody from their straight faces. I wonder what she is doing now...I never see her anymore. She's younger than my dad, but perhaps she could be old enough to be retired.

Dear Elye,

I do not know what she is doing lately, either. I did see her in an interview some time back. She is actually not homely like some of the characters she often played. I loved her on the Dean Martin Celebrity Roasts, too. I wish I could afford to buy those!

      This article does not address migraines at all.  Yes, red wine and sulfites are often mentioned in connection with migraine triggers. With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably. So, I think most of my migraines are tied to fluctuations vascular tension and blood flow to the brain. That's why the sumatriptan works so well. It is a vaso constrictor.

      Excessive dietary tyrosine can cause problems.  Everything in moderation.   Sulfites can also trigger migraines. Sulfites are found in fermented, pickled and aged foods, like cheese.  Sulfites cause a high histamine release.  High histamine levels are found in migraine.  Following a low histamine diet like the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet, helps immensely.    Sulfites and other migraine trigger foods can cause changes in the gut microbiome.  These bad bacteria can increase the incidence of migraines, increasing histamine and inflammation leading to increased gut permeability (leaky gut), SIBO, and higher systemic inflammation.   A Ketogenic diet can reduce the incidence of migraine.  A Paleo diet like the AIP diet, that restricts carbohydrates (like from starchy vegetables) becomes a ketogenic diet.  This diet also changes the microbiome, eliminating the bad bacteria and SIBO that cause an increase in histamine, inflammation and migraine.  Fewer bad bacteria reduces inflammation, lowers migraine frequency, and improves leaky gut. Since I started following the low histamine ketogenic AIP paleo diet, I rarely get migraine.  Yes, I do eat carbs occasionally now, rice or potato, but still no migraines.  Feed your body right, feed your intestinal bacteria right, you'll feel better.  Good intestinal bacteria actually make your mental health better, too.  I had to decide to change my diet drastically in order to feel better all the time, not just to satisfy my taste buds.  I chose to eat so I would feel better all the time.  I do like dark chocolate (a migraine trigger), but now I can indulge occasionally without a migraine after.   Microbiota alterations are related to migraine food triggers and inflammatory markers in chronic migraine patients with medication overuse headache https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11546420/

      Then we would need to cut out all meat and fish as they are richer sources of tyrosine than nuts and cheese. Something else about certain tyrosine rich foods must be the actual culprit.

      I agree that KAN-101 looks promising, and hope the fast track is approved. From our article below: "KAN-101 shows promise as an immune tolerance therapy aiming to retrain the immune system, potentially allowing safe gluten exposure in the future, but more clinical data is needed to confirm long-term effects."

      Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self. What you're describing sounds less like a purely psychological body dysmorphia and more like a distinct neurological event, likely triggered by the immense physical stress and inflammation that uncontrolled celiac disease can inflict on the entire body, including the nervous system. It makes complete sense that the specific sensory input—the pressure points of your elbows on your knees—created a temporary, distorted body map in your brain, and the fact that it ceased once you adopted a gluten-free diet is a crucial detail. Your intuition to document this is absolutely right; it's not "crazy" but rather a significant anecdotal data point that underscores the mysterious and far-reaching ways gluten can affect individuals. Your theory about sensory triggers from the feet for others is also a thoughtful insight, and sharing this story could indeed be validating for others who have had similar, unexplainable sensory disturbances, helping them feel less alone in their journey.
