???who are the pilots???

Mitch has been waiting for that question Molly.

Molly,

Yes you are correct the Giants are playing the Dodgers...hope the Giants win...that's my favorite NL West team. BTW, the Pilots were the first Major League team in Seattle in 1969. They only lasted one year before moving to Milwaukee and becomeing the Brewers in 1970. But the Pilots did play the Giants during spring training of 1969 and 1970, if you would like further statistics let me know. Of course, that's when the Giants had names like Mays, McCovey, and Marichal. GO GIANTS!!! I enjoy hearing the broadcast voice of John Miller.

I'll be sure the game and the jumping competitions are both on the calendar ... man ... I'm so dizzy I'm having trouble typing!

Carla--Dizziness is most definately a TMJ disfunction symptom. It was one of my main ones--and the ENT who diagnosed me said I was a "classic case".

Since yours is now exagerated somewhat by the device you are wearing, it makes sense that your dizziness is getting worse.

I would lay down for a while, and see if that helps.

Carla,

Change your picture description. :P

Thanks. I never had dizziness before from it, but it sure makes sense that messing with this joint now could be causing it. I was worried that it was yet another health issue! I'm sitting here in a comfy chair ... thank goodness for laptops with wireless internet!!!

I am rooting for the giants with all my heart, i am a MAJOR giants fan....... like really really obsesed, but I cant watch the game tonight (or most of it) cause it is one of my really good friends Indina singing and Dance preformance and she has been working for like 10 years on this so it is really important.

I use a night guard, and have left it at that.

My sister went the same route as you are--she had to have teeth pulled, wore the appliance, and then the braces. She had a lot of dizziness as well. It's all connected. It will lessen as time goes on :)

The night guard wasn't enough for me :( My ortho is not a believer in pulling teeth, which is why I have this appliance, to help spread my jaw so there's more room for my teeth; it also is forcing my facial muscles to hold my jaw in the right place. So, I guess with all the inflammation I probably have with these sore muscles, it must be messing with my inner ear.

I JUST got caught up with the posts (messages in my email, do you guys do that?? Man! That is a lot of emails!).

Dizziness is totally normal for new dental appliances (along with fatigue, headaches, migranes, etc) because all of those things are affected by brain related muscles. And your jaw is right there!! Do you get headaches after going to the dentist?? I do...I have to be careful, or I will get a migrane from getting my teeth cleaned!

Yay, glad you started this thread Rachel

Now we can gab and be goofy without having to add in a little scientificness :lol:

Yes, will The Dave be joining us in the "ville" sans science??

Welcome Molly :)

Carla, that makes my mouth hurt thinking about it. I had braces, twice, and head gears, mouth guards and retainers. Total pain. Hope your pain and dizziness goes away as you get straightened out :)

Thanks. I got the fatigue, too, but I'm kinda used to that and my hubby had warned me because he got it when he got his invisalign.

I'd like to propose a new addition to our vocabulary list, lol. I'd like to add pulling a Rachel........

When you find something you can eat then proceed to eat 10,000 pounds of it in 48 hours, lol. :lol::lol:

j/k ;)

Wow it was great that this forum was started. I left for a couple days and when I came back I was behind 20 pages on the OMG forum and then Mom told me the conversation was moved to the face thread. There were 8 pages on that thread that I was behind on, and I felt funny reading along that thread since it was about things that don't apply to me. After reading one of those pages, which I quite enjoyed reading I might add, I found this forum. I'm caught up on this one and hopefully it will stay that way :huh::blink:

Since I didn't read the entire OMG forum, I'm confused :blink: Where'd the purple glittery bats come from? I like them, but I don't know how they originated

Thanks. I got a new dental appliance, the next step in taking care of my TMJ and the last step before braces.

I even feel sorry for you....quite a bit actually. That thing can hardly fit in your mouth :angry: At least it's pink and glittery :D

Oh, darn! I picked out the color and everything! I could have gotten purpley glittery then hung out with the bats!!!

AndreaB Contributor

The purple glittery bats help with cross-pollenating the food stuff in the garden by flapping their wings.

They are that color because Susie is not real fond of bats and doesn't want them in her hair and I think Chelsea wanted them made them that color so they would be obvious. They are trained to stay away from Susie.

Mitch comment: In actuality, they were imported by Meredith when she discovered it was a result of a special mating season between the red bats and the blue bats. :lol: During transport on the high seas the high humidity caused such a stickiness on their bodies. Also, the glittering waters of the pristine ocean near R-ville paradise clung to them, therefore, the bats retained the glitter.

If Celia pull the Ostrich avatar, how is anyone going to know what I look like. I don't have any other photo of me and besides have not figured how to put it on here, even if I did. Her Avatar is the nearest to my looks as any that have been here. I am skinny like the bird, gray hair, real short gray hair, and when I am playful, I can spike it like the bird. My beak is not as pronounced as this bird, but all in all, I am the bird. Of course I wear red lipstick. :blink:

Ummm...I think The Dave is still wandering around the OMG thread. He is lost... :lol:

No doubt he is finding more things to torment me about.....still havent heard the end of the alien baby business. :rolleyes:

Now I will be hearing about orange pee jugs and how its not cool to store them in the yogurt cooler at work. :lol:

Rachel - call me when you're 45 - - :P Face is not falling off currently - have stopped the cream - - the madness, however, continues.....over on that thread you can read about me peeing outside in 5 degree weather (we were snowed in for a week in Montana) and crazy stuff....too much....

May I say that I've been pulling a Rachel for even longer than I've known Rachel....holy Lord.....the bad thing is, just doens't slide right through me any more..... :ph34r: put on 15 pounds IMMEDIATELY after removing gluten - lost 5 - holding steady - - but WHY do I want to eat the entire bag of stuff now? :huh: Where is this coming from? is it our limits on cars?

help....hold me............. am scared....................... :lol::lol::lol:

Looking good Molly! Did you get a haircut? I love it!

I'm just passing through Rachelville, I didn't see anything about Moms of gluten-free boys being allowed.

Also, what is Auxigro?

You're allowed, you just have to go through decontamination if you'ver been eating gluten.

A little scientificness to explain....please pardon the break.

Auxigro is something sprayed and conventional and organic crops that is 30% msg. Some people are extremely sensitive and find that they can't eat a lot of produce.

Debmidge....I can't create a job if I don't know your interests/skills. Name would be nice unless you don't want to share (please forgive me if it's in your sig....I will go look).

2boys4me....same thing if you would like a job.

      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?
