It is Summerfest time again...It is a huge outdoor music festival here in Milwaukee. It is sooooo much fun to walk around and see all of the bands and dance and eat (I can only get corn on the cob) and drink!! It is Miller country here, or should I say beer country here!!?? We were walking past the Lakefront Brewery stand and there was the NEW GRIST sign!! I drank a cold, tap beer!!! :D Everyone I was with kept laughing at me because I was so excited!! It was the same price as the other beer too!! I kept telling them thank you and could you please bring this back next year.

If anyone is interested in seeing how big of a festival this is, just visit www.summerfest.com. We went to Tom Petty/Pearl Jam on the "pay" stage. All of the other acts were included in the admission price.

How exciting for us!!! :lol:

Wow, I thought tap beer was one of the "never again" treats. What a hope-inspiring story! I too would have been dancing for joy!

Never seen someone so happy to spend 5 dollars for a beer. You see the article in the journal sentinel a few days ago about Lakefront Brewery and New Grist?

I am super duper excited for you! I was at the Taste of Chicago last night... I too enjoyed some corn on the cob... and frozen bananas dipped in chocolate... I miss eating and drinking the other stuff... but I focus on the fun times!!!

I can't believe they had NEW GRIST ON TAP! Very good news.

Smiles to you,

On a side note, I just saw Pearl Jam last night at the MGM Grand Arena.

Eddie was hammered, but performed for almost 2.5 hours straight. The arena went crazy when they played "Betterman", "Alive", "Black" and "Daughter"...

Darn good show!!!

I think it is awesome Anheuser-Busch is consider a gluten free beer...although I really hope Miller jumps on the bandwagon.

Eddie went to my high school (years and years before I did - obviously :)). He apparantly dated our attendance lady (when she was in high school there too). It was pretty funny to think that the lady handing out detentions and Saturday schools used to date Eddie Vedder.

Hmmm... I was guessing that it would be viewed as though at such a big festival they were serving gluten free beer and it was the same price as regular beer. Those that know gluten-free beer at the store, it is a lot more money than regular.

Yes, I did see the article.

I was just joking around about Summerfest's prices, I was not trying to downplay about Lake Front serving New Grist there.

      Guidance on next steps after the lab tests

      By ABP2025 · Posted

      Thanks sending me additional links including how to test for thiamine deficiency. With regards to your first link, I wasn't diagnosed with giardiasis and I didn't take antibiotic for it. I try to generally stay away from antibiotic unless absolutely necessary as it might affect gut health. For treating phimosis, the doctor didn't give me antibiotics. I need to have a circumcision surgery which I haven't got around to schedule it.

      Guidance on next steps after the lab tests

      By ABP2025 · Posted

      I'm not vegan, just vegetarian. I consume dairy but not egg. So I have started including some Vitamin D fortified milk as well as a multivitamin with 2000 IU daily. For Vitamin B12, like you said it's very difficult to get it from just vegetarian sources and have started consuming Vitamin B Complex daily. My PCP was worried when my Vitamin D result came out as It was 3.7 ng/ml last year. He said that being low for a lengthy time could have done some damage to the body over the years. Now, though Vitamin D level has improved after the supplements, I'm not sure if the neurological damage has already been done. I'll continue including the supplements and see if my symptoms improve. I'll also get tested for celiac to see if I need to be in gluten-free diet.

      9 Year Old test results - help interpret

      By dublin555 · Posted

      The positive DQ2 result is important since it suggests a genetic predisposition to celiac, but the bloodwork not showing clear signs is confusing. The inflammation in her stomach could still be related, and it’s worth pushing for more tests, like a biopsy or a deeper look at other possible causes. It’s a tough spot, but you’re on the right track trying to get clarity.

      Being a burden to family/friends

      By dublin555 · Posted

      I totally agree, it’s so much more than just the physical struggle that occurs, there is the emotional struggle that goes along with it. It’s almost like you’re always navigating people who are uncomfortable with your needs and that pressure really wears you down. The fact is, the one that really did care will understand. This has nothing to do with you being a burden, it’s about protecting your health, first and foremost. If they don’t like being honest, that’s their problem.
