Today in North Carolina the thermometer indicates 100 degrees (in the shade) and the relative heat is 112 degrees.

Last night we had our first thunderstorm (or rain of any kind) in a months time. It's awful!

How about you?

It's been so hot lately--Saturday it was in the high 90's.

Today, mid 80's, but awfully humid.

The humidity has been rising all day, because when we came to work this morning it wasn't too bad, lunch time it was worse, 1 hr ago John and I went outside on his break, it could choke you it was so humid. It cannot be good for people with Asthma or breathing conditions.

I know--last night, we turned off the A/C and opened the windows overnight. It wasn't too bad first thing this morning, but by mid morning, it was too much.

It was nice to let some fresh air in, though--the house has been closed up for so long.

Hideously hot and humid in Ohio. I would trade this weather for a good snowstorm any day. I keep telling my four-month-old puppy that things will improve in a few months.

Guest j_mommy

What happened to the weather I had as a kid???? Wasn't that long ago that we were in the 80's in the summer and it actually snowed at christmas...here in Wisconsin! I haven't seen snow at xmas in a couple of years!!! Speaking of snow I would like to jump into a big pile of it right now!!!!!

Today we have a heat advisory and it is going to be 98 but will feel about 105 at the hottest point of the day. I feel for the people who work outdoors because the heat can take its toll.

Queen Serenity Newbie

We are also in some desperate need of rain, we have not had enough since spring....so the grass has never even been green it is always dry and burnt looking...not nice enough to even walk on.

Guhlia Rising Star

My thermometer says 95... It doesn't feel too bad out though. Humid, very humid.

Worriedwife Apprentice

We're having a bit of a cool spell here. It's only 100 degrees today, when it's usually abouut 110 in August. Luckily we have very low humidity (17% today).

We used to live in the Philly area, I don't miss the summer humidity there!

JennyC Enthusiast

Today it's only about 70 in Portland Oregon. :rolleyes: I hope you guys get some relief from the heat soon.

The "Real Feel" temperature was 107. It is so humid that my glasses steamed up when I got out of the air condidioned car and I couldn't see where I was walking.

      If you were off gluten for two months that would have been long enough to invalidate the celiac blood antibody testing. Many people make the same mistake. They experiment with the gluten free diet before seeking formal testing. Once you remove gluten from the diet the antibodies stop being produced and those that are already in circulation begin to be removed and often drop below detectable levels. To pursue valid testing for celiac disease you would need to resume gluten consumption equivalent to the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread daily for at least two weeks, preferably longer. These are the most recent guidelines for the "gluten challenge". Without formal testing there is no way to distinguish between celiac disease and gluten sensitivity since their symptoms overlap. However, celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the small bowel lining, not true of gluten sensitivity. There is no test available for gluten sensitivity so celiac disease must first be ruled out. By the way, elevated liver enzymes was what led to my celiac diagnosis almost 25 years ago.

      Then it does not seem to me that a gluten-related disorder is at the heart of your problems, unless that is, you have refractory celiac disease. But you did not answer my question about how long you had been eating gluten free before you had the blood antibody test for celiac disease done.

      My genetic test results have arrived - I’m homozygous for DQB1*02, meaning I have HLA-DQ2. I’ve read that this is one of the genes most strongly associated with celiac disease, and my symptoms are very clear. I’m relieved that the results finally arrived, as I was getting quite worried since my symptoms have been getting worse. Next step, blood test. What do these results imply? What should I tell my family? I’m concerned that this genetic predisposition might also affect other family members.

      Two months. In extreme situations like this where it’s clearly a smoking gun? I’m in LA so went to a very big hospital for pcp and gi and nutritionist

      So far 3 months in - worsening symptoms. I have had the worst constipation in my life and I am primarily eating naturally gluten-free foods like potatoes, eggs, salad with homemade dressing, corn tortillas, etc. I hate gluten-free bread and pasta so I don't eat it. Occasionally I eat gluten-free almond flour crackers. As stated in the post, I don't have any vitamin deficiency. I was already tested.
