About Me
Nothing too exciting about me. I used to be a nurse now I work at an insurance company. I have an almost 24 year old daughter and she has 3 daughters and a son. She married at 15. Of course she did, we live in Kentucky. I can make Kentucky jokes, I'm a Kentuckian!Â
I stopped eating gluten on Tuesday (two days ago) 5-11-2010. I gave up on getting a DX so I did my own research. My legs already feel stronger and the dizziness has lessened.
I have a rescued Black Lab named Midnight. I feed and take care of some stray cats that some fool left here when they moved. One just littered so now there's 5 baby kittens in my back yard.
I make things - crafts, shelves, weird things you can't find anywhere. I have a very creative side. In one day I'll make something very "goth" and then I'll make something with flowers on it. Guess it depends on my mood.
My symptoms came out of nowhere about 6 weeks ago, although lookin back, I think this has been going on for a long time. It just all came to a head six weeks ago. Couldn't even drive my car, very scary and bad.
But onward and upward!Â

ARCHIVED I Just Had A Awful Meal At Outback
conniebky replied to HappyGrandma's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
I don't like the Outback. They bring way too much food and that {special) steak is always tough. By the time you eat that bread (well, nevermind that part) and the salad and appetizers, you're stuffed and even their forks and knives are giant sized and it just gives me the creeps, it's just all too much. But they have a great drink there called a WallaBeDarned... -
Hi everyone! Well, it's been one month since I've been to my doctor and went on hormones. I CAN eat gluten, I've been a little apprehensive to post this..... It turns out my hormones were so screwy that it was giving me panic - not attacks, but panic syndrome. I've lost 23 pounds. It was ME who searched the net and found that my symptoms equaled...

ARCHIVED She Told Me I Was "weird"
conniebky replied to jasonD2's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
you all dont' know each other that well yet and are still in the 'best behavior' and 'polite ' stage. she sounds like a cool girl, she probably just couldn't think of anything else to say. Little by little you will feel more comfortable explaining it to her and little by little, she'll understand it. Don't fret so about it. It's all good. Have... -
I haven't started the xanax yet. I forgot to take it last night.

Really? She's going to eat a ton of wheat and worry about trace amounts in a sauce? She's fulla beans if ya ask me.

It's that BETA BLOCKER pill! I was F I N E fine before I took that pill, and then remembered that that's what I had taken before I left work in an ambulance in February. Sorry I'm posting so much, I'm feeling better though a bit and I'm having lunch. Sorry about all my posts, but my baby girl got her heart broke and I'd rather have 10 broken hearts...

These medicines have me ALL hopped up, worse than before. I forgot to take the xanax before I went to bed. I am having a terrible hot flash like every 20 minutes now. I'm nervous as a cat. I thought this was going to make it better....... think maybe it's just the adjustment or something? I feel like I'm going to jump out right outta my skin...

I'm not going to start eating gluten again, even the thought of it makes me feel funny. I'm just going to take these pills and see what happens. I think my thing is a whole lot of things rolled into one titanic thing. No, he didn't say start eating gluten, and I'm not going to. I'm staying on my gluten-free diet, but he does want me to eat more of...

Whoa, that's weird.....I remember him telling me back in January that it's also used for stage fright, which made me disregard it.

ARCHIVED I Lost My Favorite Kitty Today
conniebky replied to ravenwoodglass's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Oh Sweetie, I feel just awful. I had a cat named Mandy (after the Barry Manilow song) that was almost 17 when she quit eating and passed..... Well, I'm just a ball of tears for you. (((((((((((((((((((((((HUGE HUGS))))))))))))))))))))))))) Remember this, you gave her as great of a life as she gave you. Remember that. Lots of animals don't... -
LOL! I was wondering how to word that! I came home feeling like the queen of all drugs! That song started playing in my head, so I used it for the title. That is exactly what I meant, which, BTW, is one of my favorite all time songs cuz her voice is just ..... it is what it is and no one can do it like her.

This Inderal bottle says Propranolol. He said it was a beta blocker, but I don't know what that means. I should, but I don't remember. We had a person here in Kentucky that was taking Prozac when it first came out and he went up in Louisville and shot and killed everyone at the building where they printed the newspaper, so that has always stuck with...

Well, I've never even seen a pit bull around here. It's an irrational fear I have, like the ceiling caving in at the grocery. I love all the animals. Although, there are some "tough guys" around here who like to walk their pits with no leash because these guys are so "tough" their dog will always listen to them...but I've not encountered that. And...

Well, that's two good things! My doctor doesn't charge me a dime and all those prescriptions were a total of $8.61 with my insurance. Things are lookin up already! I really do that with my vacuum, most every single night. kareng, I can't take Midnight walking because I think a pit bull will come out of nowhere and attack him........well, that...
