    Tell that to my hubs and family, willya? hmm...Maybe I should make him some flan to make up for my transgression.

    Hey, Sora....are our moo-moos here yet? We put that order in weeks ago. Tonight, we are having No dessert. sigh, my Bikini is too tight. I tried it on yesterday and the top burst open and flew 50 feet across the yard, hit the cat who was sunning herself, which prompted her to run smack into the screen house at full speed, rip open a section of...

    Do you mean her signature line? yes, I love it too!! but, you and karen and I have the same sardonic sense of humor.

    So sorry you are going through all this. I can relate. I was so ill, emaciated and I lost major muscle mass. For 3 years, we called what was happening to me a "mystery" too. It was malabsorption from celiac and all the complications that arose from going unDxed for so long. If you find you are not getting what you need from the Albany Med group (and I...

    As I have explained, tests can be negative and you can still have a gluten sensitivity and it can cause all the problems and pain you are having. My blood work for celiac was negative too, but I still have celiac and I suffered major consequences going by "test results". The best way to know is by symptom relief. Go gluten-free and see how you feel...

    I have to disagree with this conclusion, I'm sorry. In fact, that article is so poorly written and disjointed, and sprinkled with random statements that I found it worthless. I cannot conclude that gluten intolerance CAUSES herpes simplex from what was written there. ? where was the clinical data? It said: "the herpes simplex 1 virus initially causes cold...

    I sometimes had them inside my mouth and big honking ones on my bottom lip. My honeymoon pics show me with a doozy while in Ireland and drinking all that Guinness. Once gluten-free after diagnosis, they are GONE. Last December, I was accidentally glutened and guess what popped up right away? Yup, a giant sore on my bottom lip. I do not...

    Happy Birthday, Hon!!! Hope it was fun!! Tonight we are having fresh strawberries from a nearby farm with freshly whipped cream I spike with vanilla. and P.S. to SORA--I am glad you started the thread after we talked about it on the other thread! Just what my tight pants need--more ideas.
  10. IrishHeart
    YAAAY!! Glad you rallied enough to go and enjoy yourself. Good for you.

    Well, it seems "I am late, I'm late for this very important date...." (anyone get that reference...?) but I see my friend, KAREN has answered the question and since SHE is the one who told ME about them, it is only fitting she has replied here. I love those flexible cutting boards!!! Great for travel and cheap enough to replace when necessary...

    snort! I'd rather have Bunz's flies

    Holy crap on a cracker girl, this is BRILLIANT!! :lol: Bravo!! IH is standing up and applauding wildly!!!

    A good multi-strain probiotic (like ones from Custom Probiotics) will repopulate the gut more quickly and efficiently than food can when a gut is still impaired by malabsorption. It is my understanding that it is best to take them first thing in the morning or at bedtime on an EMPTY stomach.

    I think you should stay ON GLUTEN in case he wants to do a biopsy!! When you are ready to begin your gluten-free life, here is some info to get your started:

    I Love Jackson, DuMaurier, Dickens, and Dick Van Dyke and Betty White! Talk about eclectic tastes! Reading Cutting for Stone by Abraham Verghese right now. Excellent novel.

    .... hmm, mebbe I will. Bunz, flycatchers are birds. They catch flies. Someone very clever named them, huh? We've got all manner of critters running amok here, too. I've had to remove a chipmunk and a field mouse from the house (slippery little suckers) and a starling from the wood stove--how he got down the chimney is a mystery. Took a goldfinch...

    Goldbaum's is a dedicated facility, from what I have read, and I have indulged myself with one of their cones recently with coconut ice cream and felt no ill effects. And I am a "quick responder". I have no idea if you can tolerate dairy, chocolate or peanuts, but a mix of ice cream flavors makes it really difficult to pinpoint what is making you feel...

    Have to second (or third) this advice with a resounding yes! Take them a few hours apart, but definitely double up the good guys for at least 2 weeks after you're done with the meds. You are one smart cookie! Antibiotics, while useful and necessary sometimes, make an unbalanced mess down there.

    ick....flies remind me of the Amityville horror Sticky paper.... or frogs with big long tongues. We have flycatchers nesting in our garage....want me to bring them to you?

    :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: don't hate me cuz I'm chippah! ya poopyhead grouchy pants! So what's for dinner tomorrow?

    If he wants to do all those tests IN ADDITION to the Celiac testing, that's great! I know a few celiacs with microscopic colitis and c.diff, so it is wise to rule it out/cover all the bases. When I finally found a doc who knew what the hell he was doing, he ran all those tests and more because long un-DXED celiac disease can create MORE problems and affect...

    Looks like it was a " potato or some other kind of salad" day from Coast to coast. Bloody hot here--it hit 100. Happy First Day of Summer, Everyone!
  25. IrishHeart
    I made a double CHEBE batch since the oven is already on. I was going to explain what I PUT in my burgers (TAPENADE) but Karen scoffed at my use of the proper "Haricots Verts" and now, I am TRES TRISTE . (sniffle sniffle) :lol:
