  1. I hate crowds and noisy film watchers too. Because I taught a course called "Themes in American Film" for a few years, i liked to go watch all different film genres and I used to go to this funky little theater called the Spectrum n Albany and at 3:30 PM, they had a matinee and I could sit and watch movies ALL BY MYSELF!! No one was there. Got my absurdly...
  2. I agree, You are not eating much at all, hon. You need more variety and sustenance. I would feel pretty punk eating just potatoes and butter. and I have never had a reaction to Lundberg rice and I'm a pretty sensitive sort.
  3. It may not be that you are forming new intolerances, but that your gut is still raw and those foods are tough to digest. Did you try digestive enzymes? Many celiacs have a secondary dairy intolerance as a result of villous atrophy. Lactase is produced in the tips of the villi, so when your gut lining heals and the vill grow back, you should have no...
  4. got this today in an email. Maybe it isn't a celiac thing after all. maybe it's just us. A.A.A.D.D.- KNOW THE SYMPTOMS! Thank goodness there's a name for this disorder. Age-Activated Attention Deficit Disorder. This...
  5. No worries, Colleen---I would not call it a highjack at all! Instead, I think it is a perfect example of how we gab with each other often about our various health issues, our day- to -day activities and the occasional geese encounters, too. The golf community I told you about (that we are moving to) has these elegant sand cranes with fuzzy little babes...
  6. Not to go too far off topic here, but having the Ice located right under the beer taps is poor planning. Those things leak constantly. (I know, my shoes stuck to the floor often enough while tending bar) Drainage and spills alone would suggest the ice NOT be placed under there, but also, ice must be open for bartenders to scoop for mixed beverages. Having...
  7. Genetic testing cannot be altered by gluten or anything else.. If you have the HLAB27 gene, then it should have shown whenever you were tested.
  8. I have been really happy with all the Country Life G F vitamins (mutli, C, D, etc.) mostly because they work well and do not give me any stomach upset like some multis can. P.S. I have read all the info about wheat grass, but I avoid it anyway. FWIW
  9. Well, you got THAT from me. I have always played in the yard barefoot. And I have the bee stings to prove it. What can I say? I hate shoes. (not a girlie thing to say, I know) Going back to the gym today (although lugging things up the stairs for 5 hours and hurling them over my head into the dumpster sure seemed as if I were at the gym the last...
  10. okay, but you have to dress like ohura
  11. amen to all that, little sister.
  12. Oh I watched the TV series sometimes (I know who everyone is and all) and I am a "nerd wannabe" married to a supercool nerd, but I have never seen the MOVIES. Will you guys come and watch them with me? I'll make the popcorn or whatevs...
  13. or from me... I can tolerate the sun without overheating, rashes and bumps. Maybe it is one symptom I "escaped"? ( that would be a first, since I have everything else on celiac, food intolerance and HIT symptoms lists.)
  14. I heard it the way you wrote it, Barty! and I sang it and giggled too!! While I am not as excited as you guys are as I am not a huge Trekkie (I know, I know, what can I say? I have diverse tastes and that one took a back seat, sorry?) I can BE excited FOR you and say "ENJOY!!!" (maybe someday when I can sit and relax, I will watch a few)
  15. what..."endearing and warm"? oops, too late I wuvs you
  16. hey, you're the self-proclaimed grumpy-pants, kiddo. I find you endearing and warm.
  17. or it's Karen Ksee, soon, you will see that we like to laugh on here ....a lot .Best form of support there is, in my mind.
  18. Not being flip here, but good luck with that concept. It would seem like it would work, but that is not the case. There will always be people who are negative and angry,(on here and in life) and trust me on this one, no amount of cajoling, or the blowing of eternal sunshine up their skirts will change someone's personality. People are, well, human...
  19. Probiotics will not affect any testing.
  20. I've been a member of the forum over 2 years and IMHO, the majority of the regulars are generous, compassionate, and funny people. Like all microcosms of society, the forum has a mixed bag of personalities and often, they may clash. It is unfortunate that in the short time you have been with us, you have a negative opinion of us. Sorry this has happened...
  21. And my husband has also made bread for us when I was so ill I could barely walk or think. That's not molly-coddling, that's compassion. And anyway, the snarky comment that was made is irrelevant to the discussion which, in my opinion, has been derailed. Karen has posted a thread to help people "stock up" on emergency food.Let's channel this...
  22. I always have fruit and cut up carrots, celery and bell pepper strips on hand. (I'm a "grazer" ) Dried fruits and nuts and seeds of all kinds (Nuts.com and I are great pals) Jif -to-go cups are stashed in my car with Crunchmaster crackers Cheese Chobani yogurt natural applesauce cups cottage cheese cups Rice pudding cups I make these big...
  23. MW I know how much this means to you that your Mum is going to do this for her health...and so, I am just over-the-moon for you right now. Dinner will be pork roast with roasted veggies as we continue our cleaning out. Gonna be scarce on here for a day or so,
  24. you keep turning this hypothetical scenario into a bigger one. She/he posed a question and I gave a reasonable answer. You may not like it. So be it. But I would never assume anything about someone's "mental health status", not my job. And you are being abusive and rude to another member with your "molly-coddling" remark...and I'd like to...
  25. Good question! Before a few weeks ago, i would have said "I have symptoms for weeks!" but I got "hit" accidentally recently and I have to say I was really surprised that it wasn't worse. I had a few days of symptoms, but instead of knocking me hard for a few weeks (as has happened in the past), I recovered more quickly than I thought I would (I...
