  1. Ok so the RA makes sense then, if you say its heriditary. Almost all females on mom's side of family has it. And am I remembering correctly that Celiac greatly increases the chance of getting it?? What do you guys take for pain relief?? If this helps explaining more, I get the arthritis flareups where I've been injured...most times it will feel like...
  2. Hi, friends. I know a lot of you have Fibro or RA, so I figured I'd ask you guys...How do you know which you have and did you get tests and is there any medication for it?? I'm confused because I have the symptoms of fibro mainly the swelling and affected by change in weather, but anywhere I researched it said inflammation is RA, not fibro (and I DEFINITELY...
  3. OK i promised some of you the pictures, so take a look at the album: Open Original Shared Link Enjoy ~ Lisa ~
  4. Thanks everyone for the belated wishes We went to Rouleau. My friend knows Brent Butt (working in radio he seems to know everyone ha) so we got to look at things up close. Even met the producer ha. Since theres more than one of you who like Corner Gas, I'll load those on and post 'em later today. ~ Lisa ~
  5. Hey everyone! For my birthday/the day after I had quite the celebrations: On thursday was a Paul Brandt concert, and friday went to the set of Corner Gas and a Sask. Roughriders game. If anyone wants to see pics, reply with which of the 3 events and I'll load some online and link them here. Thanks ~ Lisa ~
  6. Thank you for being so understanding..When i said that this was nothing/easy to deal with, I meant that compared to all the stomach issues I've been going through and trying to self-diagnose myself, this is minor compared to them. You also understand why I'm not gonna think about anything else but Synthroid, I need to stay on it for quite a while before i...
  7. I didnt tip, but I did give them a huge thank you more than once!! They usually offer to toast my bread or whatever, but I explain I can't share a toaster. So i guess from now on i'll just get them to warm it up, knowing that they'll do it . I think we'll be going back more . Even better I'll be living in that city in a few months ~ lisa ~
  8. OK so maybe I got the numbers mixed up...maybe it was 0.9 to 5.0. I was sitting there upset that I have yet another thing to add to my list of health problems and could have easily mixed up the 2 numbers. Thats not the whole point of me posting. He tested me for that T4 or whatever and that showed normal but this was way high. I have not had this problem...
  9. Hello! my name is Dara and i am posting this for Lisa because she is having problems with her computer/internet! "This morning I got a call from the doctors office to come in today because he wanted to see me. So i went this afternoon and I had gotten the bloodwork back on my thyroids. The diagnosis is: I DEFINITELY have hypothyroidism. He told me that...
  10. Yesterday I went to Smitty's in Regina (where we always stop for breakfast/lunch). The lady was kind enough to heat my rice bread for me in the microwave before our meal arrived. The accidently put toast on my plate and she asked "do you have a toast allergy?" I said yes, so she said "we'll go make another one". And sure enough, within a couple of minutes...
  11. Yesterday I went out and bought a book called "Crohn's & Colitis: Understanding and Managing IBD". It's completely amazing. Very detailed, and even has a whole chapter on the diet to try reduce the symptoms. I'm now about 99% sure I know what I have, and why, and what section on my stomach it affects. So if anyone else thinks they have an IBD but...
  12. *Hugs* I'm sorry to hear you are going thru so much!! I hope you can feel better and get some answers soon! ~ Lisa ~
  13. Wow either you guys are way ahead or we are just way behind for magazine issues.... ~ Lisa ~
  14. I only heard about this because one of my internet friends sent me a text message tonight saying there's a huge article. Hopefully I can find this magazine before they switch it for next weeks ~ lisa ~
  15. Hmm i'm not sure Deb! I honestly never heard of anything like that. From what I know, they either have gone back to South Africa or to another province. So it'd be impossible for me to see them, anyways. ~ Lisa ~
  16. They dont know that tho, NONE of them. the only ONE who ever has was one that left town a couple years ago. And as i keep saying, I wasnt supposed to be tested for Celiac, its not what was requested or agreed on. Don't you just love Canadian health care . At least the other one here in town says he'll fill out the form for the university (THANK GOD). ...
  17. Even if i did find one of those docs, it would take MONTHS to get in ~ Lisa ~
  18. What in the world is that??? All i know is he checked off TSH. ~ Lisa ~
  19. Maybe I shouldnt be worried about this since he could be wrong, but i went to my family doc this mornin because i swore i had a sore throat (it feels raw and hard to swallow, etc). He tells me no its not my throat, that my thyroids are swollen . So he gave me some dumb prescription for rinsing mouth or whatever, and wants me to go for bloodwork. Should i...
  20. hehe well thanks for the nice comments everyone. Not sure the pics did enough justice but i tried!! if video files werent so huge i'd upload them too . i must of sent it to AB, i heard they got a dumb on haha. It was fun while it lasted tho!! ~ Lisa ~
  21. Heres my lazy/fast way of showing you some of the pics: Open Original Shared Link ~ Lisa ~
  22. I find this interesting too: the excuse they have for the rising prices in Canada is farmers are seeding . Sure like its really the farmer's fault its up to 125.9 ...and like the farmers dont seed EVERY spring yet they've never raised it before.... ~ Lisa ~
  23. ...when its snowing on May 23rd!!! (aka RIGHT NOW). Started about 11:40/35 minutes ago. huge flakes, its already making ground cover (and yet most of it is melting). I took some video clips and a few pictures even. Very pretty. But forget the pretty, it makes me GIDDY!! haha. I LOVE snow. This is SO awesome haha. It don't beat last years latest snow date...
  24. Haha yeah well not too many cities around here dont forget lol ~ Lisa ~
  25. Lol well thats VERY highly unlikely...maybe i need to borrow one of Paul's body guards to check out the areas for me before i walk in. Now wouldnt THAT be a birthday treat ~ Lisa ~
