  1. Happy Birthday!!!! Hope it's a GREAT one! Love & Hugs, Lynne
  2. If you could get arrested for wheeling under the influence, I'd still be in Vegas!!!!! Chris -- no problem with regard to the faux pas! The Ostrich is hanging around -- We've been calling back & forth, but I've been sick for a few days and I'm guessing she has, too. Will have to give her a call tomorrow and see what kind of trouble we can stir...
  3. Hey Amy! I'm from Louisville -- my daughter and son-in-law are students at U of K. The dietician I have here is EXCELLENT -- she knows SO MUCH about Celiac. If you strike out in Lexington, drive on over for an hour, and see this lady. I agree with you about the health food stores . . . I have found that even though we have a competitive market here...
  4. GALS?????? GALS??????? Chris . . . . I thought you were so enlightened!!! Please tell me that you don't refer to the women in your office as GALS??????
  5. I think that I'm kind of "overly cautious" about Lyme disease because of an experience I had with one of my patients. I had seen her a week prior, and she was going on vacation -- camping with her husband and kids. She came in for her next appointment and I asked her how she was doing. She said that she had been doing the stretches, the self-mobilizations...
  6. I am NOT stalling . . . . Jen has not e-mailed the picture to me . . . . CUT ME SOME SLACK
  7. Chris -- Tired of doctors is me -- Lynne -- I just put that picture on my avatar because it's so good of you two -- and I'm in the background, which is where I like to stay. The whole pineapple drink thing sounds way too good to pass up . . . . oh no, my one drink every other month rule may be broken!!!
  8. Hey -- Pookie is pretty laid back . .. she didn't even bite me when I was up there!! I like that cat!
  9. New Grist Beer, huh? Last I recall, it got me in a little bit of trouble . . . . However, I DID decide that people move MUCH more quickly for a drunk in a wheelchair!!!!!
  10. I am IN the picture in my Avatar . . . . just WAY over to the left!!!!!
  11. Gotta go with GFP on this one . . . this forum is an advertisement arena for Scott. That is fine -- it's his site. However, it is NOT a democracy. The idea of "open discussion" is not supported, and yes, if the moderators are specifically bad-mouthing one individual behind their backs . . .. well, that IS breaking one of the rules --just not publicly....
  12. I LOVE Freeda vitamins! I am taking their prenatal because I was low iron, but I also take their CoQ10 and their sublingual B12. My dietician gave me an entire PACKAGE of information about them . . . she recommends them because they are free of so many irritants. I have had no trouble with them whatsoever . . . also, they're having a 20% off sale because...
  13. odcdinah: I was just talking to my DH on the telephone, told him about your post with regard to the Eddie Bauer outlet!! We were howling laughing! We have decided that we're coming up Friday, Nov. 3 in order to hit the Eddie Bauer place -- that way we won't want to ditch the conference early when we really need to be there! Sounds like it is really...
  14. Hi Amy -- Welcome to the board, and to the Wonderful World of Gluten-Free Living!!!!! I agree with the others . . . take it very slowly at first. I have only my DH at home, but he is also gluten-free. He does keep a few dinners "handy" to microwave just in case I'm not hungry, etc. We used to keep gluten-containing foods on a different shelf FAR below...
  15. We're not too sweet -- we just tell it like it is, Jen!!! Besides, you deserve to be spoiled. (especially after those chocolate cupcakes . . . . yummmmmmm!)
  16. It did just dawn on me . . . . she had me scared out of my wits, as well! I looked at my husband the other night, and said "Have I been tested for Lyme disease?" He said, "Multiple times. Why?" I told him because this girl had written this post that scared me to death. . . . Had completely forgotten about that. And I've been diagnosed with Gluten Intolerance...
  17. You actually get to purchase gluten-free products there? That would be GREAT! Even though we have a very competitive health-food store market here, they don't carry some of the really GOOD things . . . mamaw, it would be so nice to be able to purchase foods that we can't get here, either. Can you tell me more??? Lynne
  18. Dear Confused in Iowa: Welcome to the board! Ranting is what we do best sometimes Celiac is an autoimmune disease, and quite frequently goes hand in hand with diabetes and other autoimmune diseases, as well. I am so sorry for your son -- and you. What a challenge. Not only struggling with the diabetes, but NOW with another dietary restriction. You...
  19. Okay, guys, GUESS who took the picture that is Jen's new avatar????? YOURS TRULY!!!!!! Isn't she GORGEOUS? What a beautiful girl. And she just radiates goodness. She is such a GREAT person!
  20. Just need to know . . . . this forum is quite political, in a sense. Some get by with a whole host of indiscretions, while others are immediately called to the carpet for minor indiscretions. Don't understand it myself, didn't see the thread that caused all the trouble, but have had my share of "beratement" from admin for reporting incorrectly. Certainly...
  21. My urologist said that in order to prevent kidney stones . . . drink water with a wedge of lemon. The citric acid in the lemon prevents the calcium from forming crystals in the kidneys!
  22. CRP is the test that they use to measure inflammatory responses in your body. Given that my joints are typically red, hot & swollen, they always draw that one . . . and it's always fine! Go figure. With regard the prostate cancer issues in your family: when my father was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 1993, his PSA was 143. Normal is under ...
  23. Got to thinking about it, though . . . . State fair food? Funnel Cakes -- they're really BAD for you, but boy are they delicious!
  24. The power of prayer is an amazing thing . . . consider me on the prayer list -- may your family be blessed with the healing of your son.
  25. Oh, the presha!!!!! I am NOT how they are describing!!! Trust me . . . they just like me because I'm goofy and make them laugh! As soon as I get Jen's pics, though, I WILL change my avatar! You guys are cracking me up!
