    Welcome, Angst! (Hopefully soon to be angst-less and feeling good!)! Unfortunately, I have no answers for you--like you, I found my way here for the research, and keep coming back because of all the great people here . Rachel, I always wondered what role mercury played with the autism/vaccine/celiac triangle when the MMR vaccine never contained...

    Hi, Rachel, As usual, your scientificness leaves me in awe; I'll never be able to keep up! I vaguely remember a thread here about fluoride--was that your research also? You already looked into that, right? Or am I getting confused (brain fog?)? I also found this: Open Original Shared Link and wondered if it might not be another source of poisoning...

    IBS is not a disease, it is a syndrome--a collection of symptoms. Those symptoms are pretty much identical to those of--you guessed it--celiac.

    Man, I miss baklava!!!! Tell us how it turns out (drool)!!!!

    pancake batter? Or maybe just wrap the piggies in a pancake and secure with a toothpick? ("If You Give A Pig A Pancake...")

    I can't help much with the food issues except to say that my kids loved plain broiled salmon, which I flaked up and sent in a bowl with rice. They also liked avocado. Seems to me that Tinkyada rice pasta would be good.Careful with rice milk--Rice Dream is not gluten-free. If it relieves your anxiety any, 2 of my kids refused bottles and cups--they just...

    I still say that homemade chicken soup and hot lemonade work better and are way better for you (and they are gluten-free, too!)!!! (Still, it WAS nice of you to post that--hope you don't need it!)

    Many babies do much better on formula than breastmilk simply because their mothers aren't properly instructed in just how often you have to nurse a newborn. Most doctors are still telling new moms that they should nurse every 2-3 hours, when in reality, if it's your first baby, you might have to nurse as often as every half hour during the first week! ...

    I had a lot of problems last winter where even though I was taking the same dosage of synthroid (from the same batch, even), I kept having these drastic swings between feeling hyperthyroid and hypo. One week I would have all the symptoms, of hypo, the next, hyper. And then I had a couple of months of hyper, but my bloodwork checked out as normal. My endo...

    You might try double-bagging your bread bag, or using a well-labeled, well-sealed plastic container.

    Shingles always follows whatever SINGLE nerve in which the chicken pox virus has settled and gone dormant. It's not always the trunk. I did have postherpetic neuralgia--it went away on its own in about a year. Also, unlike shingles, DH tends to be symmetric--you will see exactly the same number and location of clusters on each side of the body, or...

    I have a suggestion to add: print out this thread and display it where everyone can read it (after deleting my post and the one where race was mentioned....)!!!!!

    I wash grapes, etc. in a huge bowl of water with 1 drop of dish detergent. Then I rinse them really, REALLY well/ If you look at the ingredients of the produce wash, all it says is, "surfactant." That's just detergent.

    gluten-free matzo balls gluten-free Matzo balls This recipe is from someone named Sara who used to frequent the glutenfreeforum. 4 TBSP chicken fat (save a little in a tub in the freezer every time you make soup. You can also take chicken skin and/or fat from any raw or baked rotisserie chicken, put it in a frying pan, and cook it til the fat renders...

    What are the symptoms of radiation poisoning? Obviously, that wouldn't explain the Lyme, but if the Lyme prevented you from eliminating the thyroid potion, maybe now, the radioactive stuff still in your body is doing weird unpleasant things. Giant, glow-in-the-dark spirochetes?

    Rachel--sending you some much-needed hugs and positive energy!! Hope you feel better tomorrow....

    I totally understand! I was hit-and-run by a car in January and my shoulder was dislocated and really mangled (it didn't help that I sat in a rather empty ER for 3 hours before it was reset, either). The first ortho who saw me didn't want to bother with an MRI. Turned out, I had torn tendons and cartilage, and one of the tendons was torn off the bone....

    There are some super simple sausage recipes that you can make with any ground meat--beef, pork (cheapest by far), turkey, Kosher meats, etc. Here's one: Maple Fennel Country Sausage Patties Recipe courtesy Rachael Ray Show: 30 Minute Meals Episode: Breakfast in Bed 1 teaspoon coarse salt 1/2 teaspoon coarse black pepper...

    Swimming! Especially somewhere that has a hot tub/whirlpool, where you can heat up and stretch your sore joints BEFORE you exercise them!

    Wow, I had always thought that breaks healed better than tears! So much for that theory.

    I thought I had read a few years ago that electric blankets were associated with a higher risk of cancer? Something about the electromagnetic field? When I searched a couple of minutes ago, everything I saw talked about "weak links" and "inconclusive studies," but this raises a red flag for me. In our neighborhood, the power company is trying to install...

    My physical therapist was just telling me how he has a lot of ex-dancer patients: apparently, they are much looser in the joints than most, but after they retire from dancing, they don't maintain the musculature to support the laxity, and they have terrible back problems. Hope that's not you! He did say that they are among the easiest of all his patients...

    My oldest son was also a several-times-a-night-waker. He NEEDED a warm body, preferably mine or his daddy's, but the cat or the neighbor's dog worked just fine, too. I finally came to the realization that they need what they need, in spite of doctors who insist that every child needs to learn to put themselves to sleepand stay asleep. When they are ready...
