Hey Susan,

Can Jane come and visit me? :D

10 weeks without wine--congrats! That's great :)

Green12 Enthusiast
Thanks, Patti. Well, that is strange, isn't it? Here we go again with Jean Benet....it will be interesting.

It will be endless for me, since I live in the state it happened. The entire paper, local news, on top of the national media <_<

That is interesting Patti, something seems a little off to me about his story. Not sure what exactly.....

swittenauer Enthusiast

Everytime I see the name Susan I think someone is speaking to me. Ha!

I coach youth rugby, for a whiel I coached at the college level and men's and women's div 2 adult leauges. I primarily focus on refereeing in the fall.

Sounds like fun Picard, I'm a big sports fan myself :)

Are you in Canada? I don't know if you ever said, I thought Ryan was in Cananda, but not sure if you are as well...

The whole thing with this guy is a little fishy--

I've never noticed where everyone is from until now. It seems like we are all over the place. As spread out as we can be.

Hey, how about Ebay? I buy & sell so much on there. I love it.

I do ebay. That's where I buy my custom paint breyer horses. Check out mystic_horse_studios just to see what kind of work she does. She lives an hour north of me and is super nice.

I also sell misc things.

Andrea - - LOVE LOVE LOVE the Waltons......will post a poem from it for you later, from John-boy - makes me cry

I'll be watching for it. I'm trying to catch up quick and I've got to grab a baby that just woke up. It's lunch time and his tummy is talking to him. Micah just went in to say hi to him. :P

Everytime I see the name Susan I think someone is speaking to me. Ha!

Maybe we should call you Susan and Dingogirl, Susie.

swittenauer Enthusiast

That's what I do too with Ebay. I sell cds dvds, kids clothes & lots of other stuff.

I'd go for that being called Susan & dingo Susie. Or maybe Susan W.

Susie,

Congrats on the avoidance of things that need to be left alone. :D

Hey Susan,

Can Jane come and visit me? :D

Jane is quite precocious, brilliant, and up for ANYTHING....if I tell her, she'll go - - you supply the ticket... ;)

That is interesting Patti, something seems a little off to me about his story. Not sure what exactly.....

Somethign DOES seem quite off....like, he confesses, then his wife (?) says, no, he was with me at Christmas.......he is freakish......

Everytime I see the name Susan I think someone is speaking to me. Ha!

let's see.....they sometimes call me Susie? maybe that could work? :)

I've never noticed where everyone is from until now. It seems like we are all over the place. As spread out as we can be.

that is what's so fun! we are all over the place.

swittenauer Enthusiast

Okay. Susan and Susie it is. I'm easily confused. Ha!

Hey, can we get an updated posting of the jobs in town? Just curious.

Thanks for posting those jobs!

Hey I just read on another thread that the Outback Steakhouse has recalled their gluten free menu & that they only have one salad dressing listed as gluten free now. Yikes!

I love Outback & so does my husband & our daughter also.

I read that last night. I haven't been though. We don't usually go out to eat. We were vegans prior to learning about gluten allergies and intolerances, so have only been back on meat for a few months. My kids still aren't real fond of it and miss their soy.

Hey Rachel. Where is your new pic?

I cant put up a new pic until I'm on my home computer....which wont be until the weekend.

Rachel, who knew we had so many similarities, and nerdy and dorky ones at that :lol:

I loved to go roller skating with all my friends, that was the cool thing to do in the late 70s, early 80s, go to Skate City and go around and round in a circle while Bonnie TYler's "Total Eclipse of the Heart" blared on the loud speaker

:lol::lol: Yeah...everyone hung out at the rink back then. I used to be there all day...from like 6 am until 4 or 5. I loved it. In the morning I had my lessons and practice....as soon as the "session" started it was off with the "skirt thingy".....no way I could be skating around in a skirt with all my crushes there. Soooo not cool. :lol: Those were the days....I could also eat churros and nachos all day long. :D

I remember the dude I had a crush on when I was in 4th grade, he was in 6th grade. His name was Kevin something. One of my friends told him I liked him and he asked me to skate with him, I was so embarrassed.......

:lol::lol: I had a huge crush on one of the DJ's who worked at the rink. All my first boyfriends were from the roller skating rink. :lol:

About 4 years ago me and my ex went skating...we were having fun just going around in circles. :lol: A little boy skated up to me...maybe he was 12 or 13....he asked me if I'd skate with him for the next couples song. :lol::lol: It was really cute....but once I told him how old I was his eyes bugged out and he never came back. :lol::lol:

My ex and I had a good laugh over that one!!

We have to see that picture of you from your roller skating days, I do believe that tops the purple dress and heels :lol:

Yeah....nothing tops feathered hair. :lol::lol:

Ok...feathered hair and skating outfit with sequins!!! :ph34r:

I would rather spend eternity with Bob Barker telling me to spay and neuter my pets than watch 5 minutes of Lazytown. That show is 'effin creepy!

What is Lazytown?? :unsure:

LOVE LOVE Ice Skating shows. One of my two athletic medals is a gold metal for skating :)

I didn't see the other kids, but they must have sucked, because I fell during my routine :rolleyes:

I fell during a competition once....no medal for me. I cried when I got home....sooo embarassing. :(

Aren't pants the most annoying thing!? I try and find a brand that fits, and Rachel it!!! :lol:

Yeah...I Rachel the heck out of pants that fit me nowadays!!

Hey I just read on another thread that the Outback Steakhouse has recalled their gluten free menu & that they only have one salad dressing listed as gluten free now. Yikes!

:o

Say it isnt so!!!

Is this some kind of backlash from all the uproar over McDonalds fries??? <_<

Susie ...(I gotta think of another name for you...feel weird calling you Susie :lol: )......YAY!!!! 10 DAYS.....NO NUGGETS!!

Proud of ya. ;)

Now the kids go in-line skating at these rinks, or most of them do anyway- don't they?

Roller skating is totally different. I love roller skating. I've never seen Grease 2. Usually the sequels aren't so good but I might give it a try.

How about something a little bit more exciting............................ like roller derby! Now I am REALLY dating myself!!!!!

:o

Now I'm a bit more carrot top than ronald mcdonald, but it's still not done. And I smell like a cathedral. Which isn't necessarily bad, I always loved that smell :)

:lol:

I feel that way about Telletubbies .......

Fabulous Chelse!

I took ice skating lessons in the 70s when it was really popular then, around the time of Dorothy Hammill (sp?) and the movie Ice Castles, LOVED that movie. I'm so glad I did that when I was really young and short, closer to the ground when I did all the falling, and I don't know what it is there is something about being that young and having balance and no fear :lol:

      If you have been eating the gluten equivalent of 4-6 slices of wheat bread daily for say, 4 weeks, I think a repeat blood test would be valid.
    • englishbunny
      it did include Total Immunoglobin A which was 135, and said to be in normal range. when i did the blood test in January I would say I was on a "light' gluten diet, but def not gluten free.  I didn't have any clue about the celiac thing then.  Since then I have been eating a tonne of gluten for the purpose of the endoscopy....so I'm debating just getting my blood test redone right away to see if it has changed so I'm not waiting another month...
    • trents
      Welcome to the forum, @englishbunny! Did your celiac panel include a test for "Total IGA"? That is a test for IGA deficiency. If you are IGA deficient, other IGA test resultls will likely be falsely low. Were you by any chance already practicing a reduced gluten free diet when the blood draw was done?
    • englishbunny
      I'm upset & confused and really need help finding a new gastro who specializes in celiac in California.  Also will welcome any insights on my results. I tested with an isolated positive for deamidated IGA a few months ago (it was 124.3, all other values on celiac panel <1.0), I also have low ferritin and Hashimotos. Mild gastro symptoms which don't seem to get significantly worse with gluten but I can't really tell... my main issues being extreme fatigue and joint pain. The celiac panel was done by my endocrinologist to try and get to the bottom of my fatigue and I was shocked to have a positive result. Just got negative biposy result from endoscopy. Doctor only took two biopsies from small intestine (from an area that appeared red), and both are normal. Problem is his Physician's Assistant can't give me an answer whether I have celiac or not, or what possible reason I might have for having positive antibodies if I don't have it. She wants me to retest bloods in a month and says in the meantime to either "eat gluten or not, it's up to you, but your bloodwork won't be accurate if you don't" I asked if it could be I have early stage celiac so the damage is patchy and missed by only having two samples taken, and she said doctor would've seen damaged areas when performing endoscopy (?) and that it's a good sign if my whole intestine isn't damaged all over, so even if there is spotty damage I am fine.  This doesn't exactly seem satisfactory, and seems to be contrary to so much of the reading and research I have done. I haven't seen the doctor except at my endoscopy, and he was pretty arrogant and didn't take much time to talk. I can't see him or even talk to him for another month. I'm really confused about what I should do. I don't want to just "wait and see" if I have celiac and do real damage in the meantime. Because I know celiac is more that just 'not eating bread' and if I am going to make such a huge lifestyle adjustment I need an actual diagnosis. So in summary I want to find another doctor in CA, preferably Los Angeles but I don't care at this stage if they can do telehealth! I just need some real answers from someone who doesn't talk in riddles. So recommendations would be highly welcomed. I have Blue Shield CA insurance, loads of gastros in LA don’t take insurance at all 😣

      Okay, Lori, we can agree on the term "gluten-like". My concern here is that you and other celiacs who do experience celiac reactions to other grains besides wheat, barley and rye are trying to make this normative for the whole celiac community when it isn't. And using the term "gluten" to refer to these other grain proteins is going to be confusing to new celiacs trying to figure out what grains they actually do need to avoid and which they don't. Your experience is not normative so please don't proselytize as if it were.
