Votre Francais et tres bien, mon ami. Mine sucks. I don't think he is in France, though. I think he is in Connecticut.

Rachel, tell us about the grocery shopping ? Any exciting celebrity sightings? :D

CELEBRITY SIGHTINGS - ha ha ha - good one - -

but do you think Picard is FROM FRANCE?? this would be so titillating...

hey - does anyone know if scanners work well for photos? I am going to have to see if I can post something quite funny......has to do with JR......some of you will like it......

Susan, je ne pense pas qu'il habite en France, je pensent Conneticut. LOL

OH MON DIEU CECILE, didn't know that that French injun in you SPOKE FRENCH ACTUALEMENT......

Robbin... qui était trop drôle, je n'ai pas même su que vous avez signalé cela ! !

You guys are making me wish I'd kept up with my French.

Cecile,

You need to come stay for a long time in a couple years and refresh my pronunciation if I decide to try and start the kids on French. It's that or Spanish. Of course, maybe I'll wait until they are older. The only thing is we've got to take advantage of the sponges while they still absorb quickly.

and for WHAT I ask? another usesless talent (for me anyway) :P

TheDave Newbie

Surprised so many people know French on here....or some of it anyway..... I always figures Spanish would be the more obvious choice (well...especially for us here in California!)

vous me faites le rire, mon Français est moche. Je tends mon cerveau. Gotta stop the French, I am thinking too much, lol. :)

I was getting confused, can you imagine that- I was thinking of the Amber Frey sighting. Oops, I am forgetting to use asterisks ***** :) *******

Decorating committee members must decorate*****

That is interesting about the golden retrievers, Karen, I never knew that before. I love them so much too. I love most dogs and cats.

Omg, Rachel, you will appreciate this story -Remember the little pond I was going to put fish in? Well, I did put some fish in-coincidentally their names were (notice WERE) Jean-Claude, Patrice, Lisette, and WeeWee.

Sad, sad story it is. I was so excited and put them in their new home, with water temp. just right, chlorine removed, food, nice glass baubles in the bottom and to my horror, the next day found them all dead. Stuck to the bottom of the pump!!!! They were sucked into the pump that the fountain flowed from!! They are now fertilizer in my flower bed. Alas, the circle of life...... :blink:

This is so true... have to share a story... :lol: I seem to always do that...

One of my sisters and husband and their 3 young children lived in Austria for a few years because of work... the kids came back bi-lingual... my sister and her husband had to ask the kids to translate for them when they were still there... :lol:

:lol::lol::lol:

Ok, you must get something to eat. Very important. Hope your back feels better in the morning.

Nighty, night.

I'm speeeed reading...catching up fast! Only 4 pages back now.

I'm replying to multiple posts (learned this from The Dave)

Glad the Village Idiot is good for something :rolleyes:

About the staring...I usually get it when I walk erect with dingos too....go figure ;)

LMAO...

It took me awhile to catch on to this...

iPod's are great at work!? up until 6 they are! ;) and you wonder about the word slacker??? hmmm :lol:

And just what are you implying Mr. Not my Boss??

At 6 am I am busy greeting customers and at this point I have no use for an iPod as our customers are my only priority. Don't you know this?? Sheeessh. :rolleyes:

Oh..................my.......................Gosh.......................our Cissie watches BOUNTY HUNTER......

this is somehow SO incongruous to me........let me wrap my mind around it................ :o

Ok....so I need to wrap my mind around this too. :blink:

How is it that she watches Bounty Hunter and yet has never heard of Brad and Angelina??? :unsure:

think about it.....our dear Rachel cna't even catch up, and SHE IS THE PRESIDENT......

Ummm...yes. And I'm STILL not caught up. I simply asked the Rachelvillians to slow things down and several people seemed to *think* about it...but yet went on to add about 15 more pages! :o

Shhheeeesh....my own cult farm has gone wild.

Rachel, I trust you will leave the troublesome crackers at the store--where they belong ;)

Jersey...I sure as heck did! I walked right past those darn gluten crackers that are disguised as rice crackers! I've learned my lesson! I'm never touching those nasty things again!

Besides I have like 3 packages of them at home still. :ph34r:

Sorry, I'm posting. I can't help it. This is really bad. I have a job for the next week that basically involves me, in a room by myself, with a big computer, a set of instructions, and...oh no...internet access! Don't worry though, I'm very skilled at hanging out in Rachelville while simultaneously getting work done :ph34r:

YAY Mango!!!!

The auxigro protective geese are suppose to protect us from a lot of things.....

Yeah...me thinks the geese have been slippin a bit. <_<

Cissie what is wroooooong with the geese??? :huh:

Ohhh sheeet! Andrea is going to die when she gets back....

LMAO!!!

NO EFFIN' AFLAC GEESE!!!!!

If we have the aflac bird I'm moving out of Rachelville.

Don't ask why, too traumatic. A guy and a lot of vodka. I'll leave it at that.

OMG Chelse. :blink:

I'm tryin to imagine what this could possibly be about.... :unsure:

OH Gaaaaaaawd I'm being robbed of my emotions again!!! :angry:

Have to go back and count these little guys....

Ohmygoodness Dave that is some kind of record I think. Dh is Dear Husband, Ds Dear son. Susan, Good night! Sweet dreams. I am going to have to go too. Another early morning so I am going to try to go to sleep.

Robbin... vous et vos mots êtes beaux !

I don't know about the coffee and your stomach, silly, but it MIGHT explain why you can't sleep, ever - - :blink:

Uh-oh...geese are slipping again....don't tell anyone...but I snuck them some of Rachel's glutened crackers and Auxigro'd veggies! hehehehe B)

They were kind of out of it after that....and were totally amused by the "duck, duck, goose" game I showed them.....

Don't forget....YOU'RE NOT HER BOSS! :P

Oh yea...well then I'll tell our Boss Henry to write her up for being a smart@ss!

No wonder they are slipping. They're in a coma!

Auxigro'd veggies don't bother me, so now whatcha going to do. Better behave yourself.

Rachel--24 Collaborator

Good googly moogly gosh-I am gone for a few hours and The Dave is half naked (I even did an f5 and didn't SEE it, lol),

:lol::lol:

There must of been some editing since then. :unsure:

Praise the Lord. :D

I make scrunchies by the hundreds.....j/k

Wow Dave.....so do I!!! :lol:

Yea not too exciting.... got 2 puppies on Sunday though! Very cute...10 weeks old, brother/sister, Golden Retrievers! No pictures on the computer yet :(

Yeah cute puppies! I love Puppies! :D

The Dave...or Shirtless Dave...or Naked Dave....or Village Idiot Dave....or whatever your name is....you had better be nice to those puppies!!

Awwww poor little fishies. :(

Yea yea...there will be a write up waiting for her on my desk in the morning.... :rolleyes:

ROFLMAO!! :lol:

You ARE funny Dave (the)!!!!

Rachel - - have you tried the rice crackers (Savory Thins) from Trader Joe's? an excellent thing and no problems wiht those, ever, gah-raun-teed!

I'm done with the rice crackers. No more....RICE CRACKERS!!

Frankly, I'm getting sick of rice...and I think rice hates me now too. <_<

Don't forget....YOU'RE NOT HER BOSS!

Yes Dave...Dont forget this

Remember...I dont really have a boss...I'm my own boss. Hence, President. :D

Uh-oh...geese are slipping again....don't tell anyone...but I snuck them some of Rachel's glutened crackers and Auxigro'd veggies! hehehehe B)

:o

Seeeee....he really is the Village Idiot! Cissie is gonna make him pay dearly. :lol:

Dont say you werent warned my friend!!

Ok...so The Dave has been in RachelVille...oh...maybe around 24 hours now.

So far he has violated the "must wear clothing" rule....poisoned our Geese with gluten and Auxigro and decided that he will not follow rule # 1 (which states all residents must be gluten free).

Cant wait to see what tomorrow brings. :rolleyes:

Oh yea...well then I'll tell our Boss Henry to write her up for being a smart@ss!

Ummmm....Boss Henry??? :lol:

Those two words just dont seem compatible to me...as Susan would say....

I'm....scared....hold....me... :unsure:

G'Nite Rachelville...

Sleep tight :)

      Interesting you mention MCAS. I have come across mcas before but I wasn’t entirely sure if that’s what it was. When I eat certain food like dairy or soy my face gets so hot and I feel flush and my heart rate shoot’s up. And sometimes my bottom lip swells or I get hives somewhere. This started happening after I had a really bad case of Covid.  Before that I was able to eat all those things (minus gluten) I was diagnosed with celiac way before I had Covid.  Hmm, not sure really. I may look for a different allergist my current one told me to take Zyrtec and gave me an epi pen. 
    • Kiwifruit
      This is all really useful information, thank you so much to you both.    I have a history of B12 and vit D deficiency which has always just been treated and then ignored until it’s now again.
    • trents
      Welcome to the forum, @Gill.brittany8! There are two main genes that have been identified as creating potential for developing celiac disease, HLDQ2 and HLDQ8. Your daughter has one of them. So, she possesses genetic the potential to develop celiac disease. About 40% of the general population carries one or both of these genes but only about 1% of the general population develops celiac disease. It takes both the genetic potential and some kind of triggering stress factor (e.g., a viral infection or another prolonged health problem or an environmental factor) to "turn on" the gene or genes. Unfortunately, your daughter's doctor ordered a very minimal celiac antibody panel, the tTG-IGA and total IGA. Total IGA is not even a test per celiac disease per se but is a check for IGA deficiency. If the person being checked for celiac disease is IGA deficient, then the scores for individual IGA tests (such as the tTG-IGA) will be abnormally low and false negatives can often be the result. However, your daughter's total IGA score shows she is not IGA deficient. You should consider asking our physician for a more complete celiac panel including DGP-IGA, TTG_IGG and DGP-IGG. If she had been avoiding gluten that can also create false negative test results as valid antibody testing requires having been consuming generous amounts of gluten for weeks leading up to the blood draw. Do you know if the GI doc who did the upper GI took biopsies of the duodenum and the duodenum bulb to check for the damage to the small bowel lining caused by celiac disease? Having said all that, her standard blood work shows evidence of possible celiac disease because of an elevated liver enzyme (Alkaline Phosphatase) and low values for hemoglobin.
    • Gill.brittany8
      Hi everyone  After years of stomach issues being ignored by doctors, my 9 y/o daughter finally had an upper endoscopy which showed a ton of stomach inflammation. The GI doctor ordered some bloodwork and I’m attaching the results here. Part will be from the CBC and the other is celiac specific. I’m not sure what’s relevant so I’m just including extra information just in case.   The results are confusing because they say “No serological evidence of celiac disease. tTG IgA may normalize in individuals with celiac disease who maintain a gluten-free diet. Consider HLA DQ2 and DQ8 testing to rule out celiac disease.” But just a few lines down, it says DQ2 positive. Can someone help make sense of this? Thanks so much.  result images here: https://ibb.co/WFkF0fm https://ibb.co/kHvX7pC https://ibb.co/crhYp2h https://ibb.co/fGYFygQ

      Those are great points and some follow up thoughts and ideas. I think you're both stating the same thing in two different ways, but I appreciate the "accuracy" of what you're getting to.   1. Are you both stating that the "too salty of a taste" could be triggered by a histamine reaction, and the flavor is coming from the electrolytes? If that is the case, wouldn't the individuals mouth always be salty during a "Glutening" situation, or are we saying that the person could get "use to the flavor" until introducing food or beverage and that could be enough to "stir the pot" and notice the salty flavor? 2. To push back on "#1": If that were true anyone with issues of histamine releasing foods/treatments would experience the same thing. Also, I did not experience a situation where most beverages were "too salty". Thoughts?
