ARCHIVED The Funny Pages - Tickle Me Elbow - The Original
flourgirl replied to TriticusToxicum's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Made me remember the time I came home from work (late night), drove into the garage and saw cats eyes under an old coal stove I had in there. Don't ask me why I kept that old stove....it was ancient and in so-so shape. Was one of those things I kept simply because it was kool......and of no functional value. Anyway, I tried to get this cat out from under... -

Gjiannet....could be worse...could be like an Alfred Hitchcock scene. Better yet, like the scene in the Mel Brooks movie (I think High Anxiety), where the birds are flocking and chasing the man down to poop all over him (I love Mel Brooks, too) -

We love the house wrens, carolina wrens, etc, etc. Bet you never would have guessed that now, would you? Apparently the wren thinks you garage would make a lovely new home.....all safe and warm and cozy . It will give up eventually when it can't get regular access. Nice of you to not lock it up in there -

Unfortunately, in spite of the housing bust, they are building-mad here. The whole area has grown tree-(less)-mendously in the last few years and someone forgot to tell them to stop!!!! In my part of the development the plots are 1 or more acres...down the road they are 1/2 acre, then 1/4 acre and then they are squeezing them in. Since last summer they... -
ARCHIVED Testing For Other Autoimmune Disorders

March must be Celiacs Go To The Rhuemy Docs month! I also have an appointment in march to address some of these issues. I have been complaining to my doc for 2 years that my throat feels tight and it's hard to swallow.....severe pain in almost all of my joints which is getting worse, I use eyedrops. Her response was to give me an antidepressant.....which... -
ARCHIVED The More I Learn The More Confused
flourgirl replied to billmac's topic in Dermatitis Herpetiformis
I can only speak for myself as far as DH, but I believe this to be true; that over time, as your body is rid of toxins from gluten, the outbreaks get less and less severe. Before my diagnosis I had rashes to the point that after a fairly short time there was no place left that I had not had one. After the gluten-free diet, my outbreaks eventually became... -

Speeking of Sam Hill in the same sentance as hollerday.....is there a "Sam Hill Holiday" in psillyville? Does it involve posting marathons?....decorating avatars?.....Sitting stonily at the computer? -

What? Did you say REMODEL for a HOLIDAY? Why on earth would someone do that? Unless of course they are Much More Soshul than *I* am (almost anybody is ). AND of course....it requires a lot more money than I have......but then again if I were philthy ritch, I can think of things I'd much rather do with munney -

Hi Em! I know what you mean about schools not closing no matter what. When I lived in the Adirondacks it took a lot to get the schools closed! But then again, the snow and bad weather is the norm, and they had the equipment to deal with it. I loved front wheel drive cars, I could get to work safely no matter what! Such an improvement over rear wheel... -

Weather is pretty shtinky here, too. Not only the snaow (only about 2"), but a heavy coating of ice on top. We're expecting more freezing rain and mixed krapp. Schools close here for everything because there just isn't the equipment to handle clearing the roads (lots of mountainous back roads). 'Course.....this does not directly affect me....no chilluns... -
DH is Celiac. It's the skin form.....but if I remember correctly you would also have the villi blunting. Not everyone exibits all of the same sympoms. Some of us lucky folks have not only DH but all of the other symptoms as well. I think there are a larger percentage of us than what I've seen printed. Anyway....I believe your teflon pans are fine....

ARCHIVED Think Ive Had Gluten No Idea Where From
flourgirl replied to UnhappyCoeliac's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
You may also want to consider your vitamins/supplements to make sure they are gluten free. If they list "starch", there's a good chance it's only corn starch but you can't be sure. As far as I know, supplements are not yet under the same labeling laws as foods are. Good luck finding the culprit! -
Congrats from me, too! I also noticed a difference. I like to keep my nails, short. I've always had to cut my nails about once a month, maybe. Now I'm finding I need to cut them every week! Same with shaving . Used to be I'd shave once a week maybe, in the summer, about every other week in winter (or less). Now I have nubs 2 days after shaving. Not...
