This is my first time here in this chat room. I recently joined this board. Thought I would stop in and say hello and I am hoping to get to know you guys.

I am from Massachusetts but moved to Myrtle Beach in 2002. It's been quite an experience.

My birthday is next week and I am going on 53 years old. Wow...time flies.

Is anyone here from Mass. or SC?

I'm from SC. Two of my siblings are in Massachusetts. We're all from SC, but they've been up there now for 30 years. Talk about time flying...

Hi Lynnie, Nice to meet you! We're just about the same age and recently I've also been wondering where the time has gone.

Glad to have you aboard :D

Hi Lynnie

I'm no where near SC, and no where near as old as Patti (well, OK, I'm actually pretty near as old, but Patti's so wise I'm sure she gets bonus points for that).

But

welcome anyway :P

Pop in on the "Silly" thread sometime.

I'm no where near SC, and no where near as old as Patti (well, OK, I'm actually pretty near as old, but Patti's so wise I'm sure she gets bonus points for that).

I see you've already met Jess and Pat, the dears :D

Nice to mee you all! Fluffy...what part of Massachusetts do your siblings live? Wondering if they are anywhere near where I used to live.

And where do you live in SC?

Yes, I will go and check out that Silly thread. Have no idea what it is yet...haven't seen it. But it involves laughter, I'm in.

They're both in greater Boston, sister in Brookline, brother in Somerville. I'm in Columbia.

Oh wow...I grew up in Everett. Just a few miles away from Somerville. I know that area and the greater Boston area very well.

I miss it there soooo very much. But, I only miss the summers. I feel like you just can't beat the summers in New England no matter where you go. But the winters...hm...that is a while different story. Which is why I moved to begin with. The winters are so brutal. Shoveling snow, and scraping ice is just not something that this body of mine can deal with anymore.

My dream is to have a summer home in Massachusetts someday. That would be wonderful. I don't know if that dream will ever come true, but I will never give up it.

      Oral thrush question

      By JulieRe · Posted

      Hi Everyone,  I do appreciate your replies to my original post.   Here is where I am now in this journey.  I am currently seeing a Naturopath.  One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD.  My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow.    She has put me on some digestive enzymes.  She also put me on Zinc, Selenium, B 12, as she felt that I was not absorbing my vitamins. I am about 5 weeks into this treatment, and I am feeling better. I did not have any trouble taking the Fluconazole.

      I'm sure it's chemically perfect. Most of them taste lousy!

      Oral thrush question

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Hi @JulieRe.  I just found your post.  It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida.  I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment.  In the meantime, I have been working with a functional medicine doctor, doing a candida cleanse and taking vitamins. It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !

      Advice while waiting for testing

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct relief for the aches. For the digestive misery, stick to simple, easy-to-digest foods (like plain rice, bananas, and bone broth) and drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay hydrated. It feels like the longest month ever, but you are doing the right thing to get a clear diagnosis, which can be crucial for your long-term health and getting the proper care. Hang in there; you can get through this! This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:

      Gluten free beer ?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Daura Damm (a sponsor here) uses AN-PEP enzymes and filtering in their brewing process to reduce/remove gluten, and it actually tests below 10ppm (I've see a document where they claim 5ppm).
