ARCHIVED Omg...i Might Be On To Something
Rachel--24 replied to Rachel--24's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Yup...I did have a thread about the birds back when they first appeared. The thing that sucks is that my house is two story...so they are above the porch but all the way at the top of the house. I cant reach up there even with the ladder I have. The porch light is all the way up there too and its been burnt out for like 5 years now cuz I cant get up there... -

Andrea, I dont know what my co-worker told her. She's my friend but totally a "drama queen" ....who knows what she said. The new manager never actually *saw* me reacting to her perfume so its just whatever everyone told her....and also the fact that I called my co-worker and said I probably wouldnt come back to work after lunch. Anyways, the girl... -

Today is somewhat better....no perfume "episodes" so far. I'm pretty stressed out trying to work the 4 pallets of product I ordered. That and the fact that every other customer is stopping to ask me why we have NO milk on the shelf. We wont get any until tonight and they just stare at me in disbelief and horror at the thought of NO milk. I dont... -

Rinne, Sorry...I guess I didnt explain very well. The birds built a nest above my porch....by the time I noticed all the mess and looked up it was too late to do anything about it. Soooo...for several months now I've had to deal with all the bird poo on my door mat and birds constantly flying to and from the nest. I have no idea how many eggs they laid... -

Andrea, Yeah...I hope she doesnt wear it again cuz it doesnt do much for my work performance. If I suffer....the store will suffer too. I think she felt really bad because it was her first day and that happened...apparantly she talked to Michelle today and was upset that Michelle hadnt told her anything about this. Yeah...I think it would have... -

Hi everyone!! It seems like I havent posted in awhile....I was keeping busy with scrapbooking projects all weekend. I forgot how much I love it! It kind of sucks that I'm only home on the weekend though....the time goes by sooo fast and I never get to do everything I try into cram into those 2 days. I guess alot of us arent feeling too well... -

ARCHIVED Any Scrapbookers?

Yeah Jen....I still cant get believe it myself!! I wanted to go back to the scrapbook store and thank the woman who gave me the coupon in the first place. -
Yup...pretty sure it was the game that we all got with our Atari. PONG. I havent seen the Andy Roddick commercial so I dont "get" it at all.

ARCHIVED Any Scrapbookers?
Rachel--24 replied to Rachel--24's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
I would love to see everyones pages. I've never scanned any of my pages because I dont have a 12x12 scanner and I havent learned to "stitch" together yet. Once I get that figured out I can put up some of my pages for viewing. I would like to get a 12x12 scanner some day. If I make some digital pages soon I can post those alot easier. -

Wow...that sounds really cool. Of course $500 is WAY out of my budget! When I first started scrapbooking I thought it was gonna be the cheapest hobby ever. Boy was I wrong about THAT! My first pages probably cost me less than $5 though...I was just buying the pre-made stuff...even frames and just slapping them on the page. Everything I bought was... -

ARCHIVED Shaky Hands Anyone?
Rachel--24 replied to BostonCeliac's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Have you had your thyroid checked? My hands got shaky when my thyroid was overactive. Its a classic symptom of Graves Disease...which I ended up having. Whenever I went to my endocrinologist for check-ups he would lay a sheet of paper across my hands to see if it would stay still. Thyroid problems are common with Celiac so just something you may want to look... -

OMG....sooo frusterating!!! The doctors office just called. Something happened with my blood. She said the needle they had used was too small and something about the cells in my blood split up so the lab was unable to perform the test. Do I just have the worst luck or what?? I have to go back today and redo the blooddraw. My heart sank but... -

Thanks Susan, You're totally right...I found a little info. pamphlet in with my test kit. It pretty much said what you wrote. "Your healthcare provider has ordered this test to determine the levels of the brain chemicals called neurotransmitters. The proper balance of nerotransmitters is essential to your overall mental and physical health." ... -
ARCHIVED Enterolab Question
Rachel--24 replied to ladybugpumpkin's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I got my results back in 2 weeks....they emailed the results on a Sunday. I had sent the test I think on a Monday 2 weeks before. I wasnt even expecting them to come back so fast so I was pleasantly surprised....I was pretty anxious waiting for the results too. -
Julie...cenitpede and milipede are pretty much the same but I got really addicted to milipede. I still play it once in awhile whenever I'm at Dave & Busters. They have one there and I head straight for it every time. I pretty much hog the game once I'm there. Yeah...I can still remember those annoying Atari sounds. Right now my mom is reminding...

I could totally go on a rant here *but*...today I'll spare everyone since I've said it all before. Rinne...I'm not gonna worry about my cyst or fibroid anymore....at least for the time being. I have a feeling these other things may correct themselves once I get an idea of what the "bigger picture" is. I figure I should get that figured out first... -

Rinne, I couldnt agree more....I feel exactly the same way about all that you've written here today. I couldnt have said it better. I'm happy with the board and I dont "expect" it to be perfect at all times. Of course there will be conflict now and then....people come and go and just like in the real world...things change. I'm on the same path... -
I had Atari!! It seems so "generic" now. I've had just about every other system made since then. Yes....I played alot of video games in my lifetime. My alltime favorite is Millipede....the arcade version. Its the only arcade game I would totally buy and put in my house. They used to make a tabletop version and we had it in the sandwhich shop (Togos...

Karen, You're not alone there....I havent scrapbooked in a long time myself...I'm going through withdrawl. Last year I was on disability but was too sick to scrapbook. When I started feeling better I built my dream scrapbook area but havent had the time to use it much since I returned to work last Sept. I'm also sensitive to chemicals since I got sick... -

I called the doctors office today and my lab results arent back yet. They had given me a kit to take home...its a urine test and I havent even looked at it yet so dont even know what its for. The nurse said they're still waiting for the results of 2 bloodtests...one of them is the Lyme test. She asked if I'd completed the urine test...which I havent... -

Thanks Michelle! Thats gonna save me alot of time and money...I pretty much already have everything I would need. Now I cant wait for the weekend! -
I could be wrong cuz I'm just going by memory (which isnt the best) but I thought only the midnight milky ways were not gluten-free??? I've been on a million different elimination diets so I could just be extremely confused but you *might* be ok with the milky ways. I dont have my Delphi list here so cant check for you but I hope you stay symptom...

I cant even begin to tell you how I feel....its been like the longest week of my life. I havent been this anxious since I had my Celiac bloodwork and my Enterolab tests. Thanks for your kind words....it'll really be amazing if I get an answer after all this time but I'm also remembering that I could still end up with questions. I've had too many...
