Hey Psuessly! Good luck on your YOWZER!!! You got the poifect snuggly Kitteh...it's in the stars for you go have a poifect snuggly Pritteh wander in through your door!!!! -
Hi! I'm not sure how much help I can be. My mom is Celiac (not diagnosed...but had many, many symptoms through her adult life). There are 8 of us siblings. My youngest brother had Spina Bifida. You may want to check your nutrient levels (blood test from your doc), and maybe you should start taking Calcium and D. I'm willing to bet that since you've...

Wanted to add that Mitral Valve Prolapse is not such a bad thing in and of itself. I have it, some sisters who have it.....I think it's a fairly normal occurance. You'll probably be told to take antibiotics before any major dental work. The more I think about it, it could very well be low ferritin/and or inflammation. In any event, I wish you luck, and... -

Well, yes! Where else, and with whom else can one openly discuss various and assorted bodily phluids and phunctions? And enjoy it in the process? It is a glorious day today! Already 50 degrees and sunshiny! If it wasn't so wet outside, I'd scrap the studies for the day and go play in the dirt! Birdies are much more vocal lately, and soon will... -

A couple of things come to mind. I had a lot of heart issues when my nutrient levels were very low and I was anemic. Perhaps you need a blood panel done to check these out. Because of your carpel tunnel....which is an inflammation....maybe you should see a rhumatologist to see if you have inflammation problems elsewhere. I know that chronic inflammation... -

We also only get the ruby throated...I guess the rest are smart enough to stay in warmer climes! I have taken a lot of pics of the hummers. Love my digital camera!!! We like to grow Dolicos vine (also called Hyacinth bean plant). The hummers love the flowers. You can stand almost within touching distance of them. We catch them resting on the vines while... -

I tend to skip over the dating threads.....as I don't feel I have any advice to give, and I don't relate. Maybe I should read them anyway...I feel an urge to check this one out! Am typing veeerrry quietly, as someone is sleeping, and it's not me -

The first thing you should do (in my opinion) is to look at what type of soil you have. If you are very fortunate you have some sort of loamy soil...a good mix. We have red clay! Until we came here I'd never seen red clay, but I grew up with blue clay and know how to deal with it.....lot's of work. You will probably have to do some soil amendment...if... -

uuhhhh.....maybe what we need is a Gluten Free Commune that includes all of these things, and supports ourselves with trips to photograph and write about other things, in between photo-ing and writing and lecturing about our own place.....how WILD all of that could be!!!! Don't mind me...I'm just amusing myself while you're all away -

Oh no! It's Doktor PseussLittle!!! "If I could talk to the animals, walk with the animals"hmm- hm-hm-hm-hmmmmm I used to dream of just such a thing. Wouldn't it be kool to have a huge reserve....natural habitats, filled with animals that come running/hopping/flying to see you the minute you get to their area!

Well, yes Leeza... sign language is imperative to include those who cannot hear...we definitely need to invite them to our lectures (and you can teach me while we're on the road). We DO need scuba people, too for those types of pics. And Bev-really....editors are a must for those who are writing! Of course, of course!! Darling, beautiful... -

OK...count me in!!! We need to figger out a way for a group to travel together....tropical climes in the winter...we're allowed to do the northern climes in summer. Of course...working in all of these locales would make it difficult to decide on vacation spots! And of course...there has to be room for pets and families (notice I put the pets first... -

You really can't be too hard on yourselph Taawwmmm (Tickle-Tawwmm). First of all, one really wouldn't think that something like pans would be harboring the little monsters....but who knows? I think you're smart to put them aside for a while. If it makes a difference, you'll know it was at least one source. celiac disease is such a tricky, sneaky condition... -
