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.

Back up to the mid 90's tomorrow :(

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.

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.

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!

      Get tested for vitamin deficiencies. Though neuropathy can be a symptom of celiac, it can also be caused by deficiencies due to poor digestion caused by celiac and could be easier to treat.

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much...

      We feel your pain. It took me 20+ years of regularly going to doctors desperate for answers only to be told there was nothing wrong with me … when I was 20 pounds underweight, suffering from severe nutritional deficiencies, and in a great deal of pain. I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does mean you can't claim a tax deduction for the extra expense of gluten-free foods. But it can also be a good thing. Pre-existing conditions might be a reason why a health insurance company might reject your application or charge you more money. No official diagnosis means you don't have a pre-existing condition. I really hope you don't live in the U.S. and don't have these challenges. Do you need an official diagnosis for a specific reason? Else, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you're diligent in remaining gluten free, your body should be healing as much as possible so there isn't much else you could do anyway. And there are plenty of us out here who never got that official diagnosis because we couldn't eat enough gluten to get tested. Now that the IL-2 test is available, I suppose I could take it, but I don't feel the need. Someone else not believing me really isn't my problem as long as I can stay in control of my own food.

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much need to cook with whole ingredients yourself to avoid it completely. Most gluten-free products should be safe, but while you're in the hypersensitive phase right after going gluten free, you may notice that when something like a microwave meal seems to not be gluten-free … then you find out that it is produced in a shared facility where it can become contaminated. My reactions were much-more severe after going gluten free. The analogy that I use is that you had a whole army of soldiers waiting for some gluten to attack, and now that you took away their target, when the stragglers from the gluten army accidentally wander onto the battlefield, you still have your entire army going out and attacking them. Expect it to take two years before all of the training facilities that were producing your soldiers have fallen into disrepair and are no longer producing soldiers. But that is two years after you stop accidentally glutening yourself. Every time you do eat gluten, another training facility can be built and more soldiers will be waiting to attack. Good luck figuring things out.
