Carla is right

Sorry, don't hear that often so I had to highlight it!! ;):lol::lol::lol:

Are you throwing down the gauntlet? :P

Umm, if I need to. :rolleyes: It's a need that no one else has filled!!! You'd really be a taifun if you could do that!!

I'm sure Rinne bars will be a hit, too.

Bev, so glad the appt. went well. I want the details, sent you a PM.

As far as presidents, will they give their speeches with no shirt on? :P It's good to see that we're all as shallow as those men who want women with good bodies! :lol: Then we have Andrea wondering who all these people are. ;):D

Nothing from Bev yet??? Shoot.... :P

I'll have to wait longer I suppose...

I'm not taking garlic yet...I AM trying to add fresh garlic to my dinner...but I'm cooking it, so I'm thinking it's not beneficial that way. I'm going to try the one you mentioned...sounds good.

Yeah...I'm really liking this one so far. Its the one that was mentioned alot in "The Yeast Syndrome"...I've taken it in capsules before but never could find the liquid extract until last night.

I'm putting the drops in warm water...it tastes really good. I LOVE garlic. :D

Did Dr. S suggest you take alpha lipoic acid? There has definately been no list of supplements that he's wanting me to take...just the whey protein and cats claw. :lol:

He's gonna be really impressed with all I'm taking now...in the past I havent been able to stay on anything...Its only been a few weeks now that I've been on the whey....( he gave it to me in October :rolleyes: ).

I bought the ALA on my own.....but then I read this...

Alpha lipoic acid should not be used alone, as it only mobilizes mercury with a weak bond. Without additional chelators present, such as DMPS or DMSA, the mercury may just redistribute elsewhere in the body instead of being removed.

I need to see what Dr. Amy says about it...I'll also ask Dr. S. in a few weeks.

I would consider coming to the states for treatment. The San Francisco Bay area has an appeal to me, I still have friends there from many years ago. :)

Yeah....and you have new friends here now too!!! :wub:

I didn't know you are supposed to hold it for 15 minutes ... I did for just a few, maybe 3? That was probably a good way to ease into it anyway and see how I react. Tomorrow I'll hold for longer. Had no trouble at all with a whole quart. :ph34r:

Rachel, does yours have a hard plastic tip? I read to use a soft tip, but mine is hard.

Carla...I dont force myself to hold it for any certain length of time. I just hold it as long as I can....sometimes its less than 5 minutes...other times longer than 15.

Yeah...mine is also a hard plastic tip. I havent had an uncomfortableness from it or anything.

I am blissfully ignoring all talk of coffee enemas. :ph34r:

:lol::lol:

We'll see how long you last......I think you'll get sucked in :P ....I agree with Carla....you know you wanna try it!! :lol::lol:

I totally get the withdrawal :(:lol: I went for two days without a rinne bar and then lost it yesterday and ate more than 5, I lose track after that many :o but I had a really good excuse. :rolleyes:

Yeah....I ate 3 quarts ice cream. :ph34r:

I had a really good excuse too!! They were in the freezer and I needed more space for the veggies and meat. Plus its harder to be tempted when they arent staring at you every time you go in the fridge. So I ate them ALL. :D

Problem solved B)

I have wondered about a number of people on this board who are don't seem to recover with just the gluten free diet.

Yeah....there are alot here who continue to have problems.

Word of advice: Dont say too much about it outside this thread. ;)

Remember the heinosity of the thread we shall not speak of. :ph34r:

Let off steam? Can we let off steam?! :ph34r:

Let me just say it's much easier being a mother hen to you guys then to my children. (insert pulling hair out emoticon).

Yeah....you wanna add some words to your punching bag Andrea??? I ran out of space on mine several hundreds of pages ago. :lol:

In some ways I was fortunate because the consequences of eating anything risky for me were so awful I was self-disciplined by that. :lol:

Ummmm yeah....I know a thing or two about this too. :P

I dont know if I'd ever say I'm fortunate to be tortured by nearly all foods though. :unsure:

Yeah....the consequences are too great. At least God provided me one flavor of ice cream to enjoy for 8 months while I blissfully ignored candida. :D

OMG....I wonder if you guys can even guess how many hundreds of pints were consumed during that time. Hot ice cream....it got me through the entire winter. :wub:

Just talked to mom a little while ago. Talitha was taking her turn talking to her and I guess grandma had brought up taking her and Micah to NW Trek and Talitha started talking about grandma giving her food that made her sick before.

I think that must have been awhile ago. When we've been up recently (all of us) it's been fine. Anyway, grandma got mad and hung up on Talitha. Talitha was in tears. :( She thinks she said something wrong. I told her that she's right in being concerned about getting sick and bringing up that she has gotten sick before wasn't necessarily wrong.

Pretty much. She doesn't agree with our lifestyle, beliefs or anything so that may be part of it. Talitha is easy to hurt, just like my mom and I were. I've got a backbone with some things, others no. My mom was hurt when she was younger and built a wall of protection around herself. I really don't want Talitha to have to do that.

My mom should know how T operates since she is pretty much like the females on my mom's side of the family. Headstrong, opinionated, perfectionist........

I'm not so much a perfectionist anymore, for the most part. I've learned to respect others opinions.....I'm not sure about the headstrong......you'd have to ask my husband. :ph34r:

I'm wondering if my mom doesn't have some kind of metals problem. She had/has a lot of amalgams too. With me being second born I probably didn't get so much of that, but my brother and I are five years apart. She thinks we are out in left field with half this stuff anyway. :blink:

She told me that my brother was following (kinda?) my advice and feeling better. She said it's hard for him because he eats out all the time. I don't know what my mom thinks about this. I hope she takes it seriously. I think she sees it as a way for him to lose weight, which he does need, but I hope she realizes he can't eat ANY gluten.

It's sad when adults act like children and hurt children in the process. I just tell my kids that sometimes adults don't act like adults and to remember how much it hurt to ... in this case ... be hung up on so that they're sure they never do that.

Hmmm I'll answer to either. Not sure which acct I want to use. I suppose there's a certain cachet to a lower member #, but not so much to me.

I'd turned on the pc to check out food/symptom diary from aug/sep '05, when I was last feeling great. Mentally anyway. And ran into old links to threads here that I knew I'd posted in. Bingo! There I was.

Then again, I didn't need the name as much as guessing email/pw for that name. :)

Yeah I found a store here that sells enyma bags. You can use for douce, enymas and it's rubber. But they sold the last one today. SO now I have to wait till tomorrow to do the enymas. Did anyone feel the squirt come from their right side. Wouldn't all the toxins squirting from their cause badness for the small intestine? Just thinking about it makes me weak like jello. A squirt. Does the squirt hurt or feel funny? Just wondering before I do this tomorrow.

Rachel, you are too funny. I love the way you solve problems, you rachel them. :P:lol::lol::lol:

I venture out of Rachelville once in a while but I am generally careful about what I say, I'm sure I could be strung up for heresy if I suggested that many of those who have found their cure may find in a few years they have other problems. I think some will find they may have multiple diagnosis and treatments for a variety of ailments that in some cases I think may solely be attributed to Lyme. This is just an opinion.

.....

I think that must have been awhile ago. When we've been up recently (all of us) it's been fine. Anyway, grandma got mad and hung up on Talitha. Talitha was in tears. :( She thinks she said something wrong. I told her that she's right in being concerned about getting sick and bringing up that she has gotten sick before wasn't necessarily wrong.

Ouch, poor Talitha. :( How difficult to have a Grandmother who behaves like that.

I've been sitting here laughing, I love it when we hit our funny bones. :lol: I think laughter is an expression of wellness and that the more we laugh the more we help our bodies remember wellness.

Thanks for the welcome, Patti. This place *is* wonderful, and I don't know what I would have done if I hadn't found it when I was diagnosed. I learn so much more from you all than my doctor(s).

And, Patti, that's what I'm afraid of, too--that's the tests for bacterial overgrowth is going to come back negative because all of my other tests have. It's kind of sad when you get to a point to *wanting* to be diagnosed with something!

That leads me to ask you all, what are your thoughts on IBS? My GI thinks I have it and celiac, but then again I was diagnosed with IBS about 7 years ago, well before my celiac diagnosis, which I now think was undiagnosed celiac. Do you all put any faith in a IBS diagnosis (because I kind of don't....)?

      Why Bananas No Longer Cure Celiac Disease

      I missed this article when it was first put up. It is interesting to read, as my old neighbour who sadly passed away a few years ago was a trainee midwife during WWII. Bananas disappeared from the shops in Britain during the war, but she told me that those that did get to the UK were kept back for infants with coeliac disease. I didn't realise that...

      @GeoPeanut, milk is one of the better sources of iodine. Iodine is known to exacerbate dermatitis herpetiformis. Many people find that a low iodine diet helps them avoid dermatitis herpetiformis outbreaks. So, maybe the fact that you have limited your dairy intake of late is helping with that.

      This sounds to me like histamine intolerance. Some foods have more or less histamine. processed or aged meats, fermented food like yoghurt or kimchi and bread (yeast), spinach, eggplant and mushroom are high in histamine. Other foods like tomatoes are histamine liberators, they encourage your mast cells to release histamine, which can also trigger the reactions you describe, flu like symptoms, joint pain, urinary tract irritation, rash, stomach upset, nausea, diarrhoea & fatigue. I had liver pain like you describe, as part of the intolerance is usually a sluggish liver that makes processing all the histamine difficult. There are multiple possible root causes of histamine intolerance, usually it’s a symptom of something else. In my case, leaky gut (damaged gut wall)caused by undiagnosed celiac, but for others it’s leaky gut caused by other things like dysbiosis. Some people also experience histamine intolerance due to mould exposure or low levels of DAO (the enzyme that breaks down histamine in the gut). I’d try a low histamine diet & if that doesn’t improve symptoms fully, try low oxalate too. As others have suggested, supplements like vitamin d, b, l-glutamine to support a healthy gut & a good liver support supplement too. If you’re in a histamine flare take vitamin c to bowel tolerance & your symptoms will calm down (avoid if you find you have oxalate intolerance though). Best of luck

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @KRipple! Sorry to hear of all your husband's health problems. I can only imagine how anxious this makes you as when our spouse suffers we hurt right along with them. Can you post the results from the Celiac blood testing for us to look at? We would need the names of the tests run, the numeric results and (this is important) the reference ranges for each test used to establish high/low/negative/positive. Different labs use different rating scales so this is why I ask for this. There aren't industry standards. Has your husband seen any improvement from eliminating gluten from his diet? If your husband had any positive results from his celiac blood antibody testing, this is likely what triggered the consult with a  GI doc for an endoscopy. During the endoscopy, the GI doc will likely biopsy the lining of the small bowel lining to check for the damage caused by celiac disease. This would be for confirmation of the results of the blood tests and is considered the gold standard of celiac disease diagnosis. But here is some difficult information I have for you. If your husband has been gluten free already for months leading up to the endoscopy/biopsy, it will likely invalidate the biopsy and result in a false negative. Starting the gluten free diet now will allow the lining of the small bowel to begin healing and if enough healing takes place before the biopsy happens, there will be no damage to see. How far out is the endoscopy scheduled for? There still may be time for your husband to go back on gluten, what we call a "gluten challenge" to ensure valid test results.
