I have 3 different facebook accounts for various reasons, someone with a personal vendetta caused me to change and the other one is to host only photos albums which don't link back to me.

each account was created under a different e-mail address, each far removed from the other both in user name and provider.

It can be done and you can stay relatively anonymous, don't add personal details to your profile and set it that only your user name is visible to all, everything else requires being a friend, and only if you vet them.

Lucky for me the neighbors told me about this guy parking in front of their house to sit and watch me.

I had no idea!!!? I knew the guy from school but had no clue he had been watching and following me everywhere.

Two guys tried breaking in my house when I was home with my two sisters. We called the police and they never came. (Each police department, city and county said the other department was supposed to respond.) Just as the front (unlocked) doorknowb was TURNING, the other guy was opening the garage door with a broken spring. The loud noise scared both of them enough to stop for a second. In that time (with a baseball bat) we had enough time to throw the deadbolt and other door locks. Then we sat in the dark waiting for the police (with kitchen knives) listening to them talk and circle the house. (They knew which window was my bedroom too.) We figured we knew our house better in the dark and picked a room with 3 exits. There were 3 of us and from what we could tell only two of them.

I think it was the same guy because he did try and kill my boyfriend by running him off the road in his car.

No Facebook for me. My kids are too young, but I don't think I'm going to let them on it either.

That is horrific! I certainly do not blame you for wanting to remain anonymous. I, too, will not do Facebook because of the scary things I have heard from others about it. Right or wrong, I am also somewhat of a non-conformist as well so stubbornly often do not do what most others are just to prove a point! Remaining anonymous is INCREDIBLY important to me. I think I am probably the only one in Canada without a Facebook account! :D No offense intended to anyone; it is just how I feel.

I have also seen tiffs start on this forum. It is just harder to communicate without tone of voice and facial expressions. :blink: Double en tendres. ;)

It just seems like it can stir up a lot of trouble. :ph34r:

You can tweak your privacy settings so that "Just Friends" see your info.....or "Friends of Friends" if you want. If it says "Everyone", then it is "out there" for anyone to see.

No...

Your name is now on this forum, C.com, forever. Anyone can see it. It might be OK now but 6 months or a year from now you might not like that people know your full name. That's why I suggested you PM each other your full names on this forum.

      Frustrated with Providers

      I have been Gluten Free for 25 years and havent eaten gluten knowingly during that time. Such a rocky life, I have had issues since I was 16 when physicians stated I needed to see a psychiatrist. I am now 70 years old. I also had Dermatitis herpetiformis. I had negative tests on biopsy, blood test etc but no doctor mentioned that I needed to do a gluten...

      "Risk free genetically"? Very low risk, actually. But, we are still learning about the genetics of celiac disease. Speaking of milk, some studies show that CMP (Cow's Milk Protein) can damage the small bowel villi like celiac disease does. Also, some meds (NSAIDS, Olmesartan - a blood pressure med) and some infections can also blunt SB villi.

      @Aretaeus Cappadocia! The post you were looking for about omeprazol acting as an anti-inflammatory/immunosuppressant was made (yesterday, I believe) by knitty kitty. Current guidelines for the gluten challenge prior to an endoscopy/biopsy of the small bowel is the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat flour...

      I went to ER on the 30th because I didn't want to wait and saw dr at desk for intake. I went for NOTHING!. ER Dr was very nice but made it seem as if I was a nut case rater than coming in for real issues calmly explaining its staph! Staph,  by look no blood test, no skin test. No looking in my nose and throat was given a prescription for jock cream and some pills ! I made the mistake of saying Im waiting on Infectious disease. She asked how did I get referral and I said I did it online.The next day I checked the status and it was denied! I did get  a referral to the dermatology office i went to last year that over charged me and did a biopsy on me stating inconclusive! I went to another dermatologist and he stated I should see Infectious disease at place i put in referral. With that I contacted that dermatologist and waiting to see if he thinks dermatology or Infectious disease is the route.I do have appointment for dermatology next week.Until then i did purchase Zahler paraGuard advance intestinal  flora support  from Sprouts. Im also very alarmed that the fact celiac isn't addressed properly infact its downplayed. When I had my son tested for HLA-DQ2 and it came out positive because he is eating everything and he is extremely skinny but he isn't dealing with severe diagestive issues because thats all he knows NOW or yet because he is still young 21.I too didn't know any difference when i was that age because thats all we know.Life changes will get him in latter years im afraid because what im dealing with.That scares me.The specialist we went to was only about congestion he is getting.He is getting congestion because he is eating what he isn't supposed too! Zero talk about celiac and HLA-DQ2 positive. Only talk was he is congested because we live in the Valley! They wanted to do surgery! I did write again to our district leader considering when I did call, the guy stated he knew all about celiac. I really wanted to tell him NO YOU DON'T but held my tongue. For my skin sores the cream given didn't do anything because ive also had in past.Ive been putting liquid vitamin c on it and taking vitamins which is making a little difference just with the last few days of doing.

      I have been Gluten Free for 25 years and havent eaten gluten knowingly during that time.   Such a rocky life, I have had issues since I was 16 when physicians stated I needed to see a psychiatrist. I am now 70 years old. I also had Dermatitis herpetiformis. I had negative tests on biopsy, blood test etc but no doctor mentioned that I needed to do a gluten challenge. I went on an elimination diet and found relief on the Dermatitis within a month. I have no doubt that I am celiac and very sensitive now. Now my issue is that I changed physicians due to retirement and he performed a blood test and included a celiac test. I was very upset because I did not request the test and had not been eating gluten for 25 years. Of course the test was negative.  My question - Will this cause me any issues with health treatment if my records now have that I dont have celiac? I like this physician and I am appalled that he performed the test. (he told me his brother is also celiac).  I feel that we are still living in the dark ages. I dont want to cause problems because I rarely need health treatment since I live a fairly healthy lifestyle.  Since I am at this age and been through so much getting to this point am I being unreasonable for being upset? I am not expecting to see this physician for another 2 months.  Need to know if I can expect issues with future treatments. How can a physician not know about the gluten challenge this day and age?

      @Aretaeus Cappadocia! The post you were looking for about omeprazol acting as an anti-inflammatory/immunosuppressant was made (yesterday, I believe) by knitty kitty. Current guidelines for the gluten challenge prior to an endoscopy/biopsy of the small bowel is the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat flour bread) for at least two weeks prior to the day of the procedure. @Ginarwebb, your tTG-IGA >250 would seem to be a pretty high test result, though to be sure of that statement, I would need to see what the lab used for a "normal" range. Do you have that number also? Different labs use different scales. There isn't an industry standard yet. The tTG-IGA is the centerpiece of celiac blood antibody testing. Your ENDOMYSIAL ANTIBODY SCR (IGA) W/REFL TO TITER (aka, "EMA") is positive as well. This is an older test, and a relative expensive one, compared to the tTG-IGA which has largely replaced. But the EMA is still ordered by some docs and is highly reliable. That both of them agree in your case and this is strong evidence that you have celiac disease. Concerning the ENDOMYSIAL ANTIBODY TITER (aka, "total IGA") being high, there are two things of importance. First, it tells us you are not "IGA deficient" such that your tTG-IGA test result is reliable. Second, a high total IGA test score can suggest other health concerns, some of which are serious. It can also mean nothing. Talk to your doctor about this. I would also suggest you research the implications of a high total IGA. In addition to IGA celiac diagnostic tests there are also IGG tests which are handy when total IGA is sub normal.  Here is an article outlining the various tests that can be run for diagnosing celiac disease:
