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...

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

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!

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

Green12 Enthusiast
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 .......

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

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:

      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?
