Hmmm, I don't know how to put my job in red :unsure: How do I do that?

Morgan

To put your job in red, go to "Edit Signature" and click on the capital 'A' in the line above the blank field. That will bring down a color grid. Highlight the line or lines you want colored and click on the color you want. When you've made all of your changes, hit the "Update My Signature" button on the bottom.

Hope you're all having a nice time--say Hi to your mom for me :D

I never really watched the show -- when I did I thought the character of Joey was funny. Now Rachel ... different reason to watch. :D

TheDave Newbie
:lol: Molly, I heard about that summer "homework" thing. So glad I am finished with school, it will go really fast so enjoy every minute of it :)

Dave, hi there! My favorite character is probably Ugly Naked Guy...no JK!!! Joey is my favorite, then probably Chandler.

:lol: Chandler is def. one of my favs, Ross is pretty funny too though.... It's hard to pick one favorite because they play off each other so well, the whole group is funny.

joey and pheobe

I dont like Phoebe :ph34r:

I'm also a "Friends" fan.

One of the funniest things I've ever seen was the one where Ross wore leather pants on a date. He was in the bathroom trying to get them back on--trying everything including shaking powder all over himself. :lol:

jayhawkmom--Your picture is great! Glad you're sticking around :)

Andrea--I'm going back now and look closer at you new picture--see who's who! :P

:lol::ph34r:

That one was funny, and the teeth whitening as mentioned already....hmm, remember when they poked ugly naked guy to see if he was still alive? Hmm, or when Chandler took a bath (with Monica's salts/candles)? That one was hilarious. Move the boat, move the boat!

How does one become a part of Rachelville??????

Just like that! Welcome to the 'ville

Application is on page one. I need to go back and edit, since we have gluten members. Need to add the gluten decontamination chamber rules.

Julie if you didn't see my response to you, it's at the bottom of the last page. :P

Damn gluteners! argh! (imagine the pirate costume)

I've never particularly watched it either.

TheDave Newbie

:lol: Hi everyone! :D

Today is the big day I've been talking about for weeks...going Rock Climbing....a little nervous about it though. Hope I dont hurt myself. Oh yeah...hope I dont hurt The Dave either. :lol:

I do still know how to backward skate and I can still "rex"....which is my favorite. Anyone know what "rexing" is??

This is way out of left field....but is it organized or competitive rollerskating to dance music; aka roller disco

:lol::lol::lol: Mysteriousness??? :lol::lol::lol:

Puleeeeeze :rolleyes:

Woman please :huh:

He's not lying...he does Rachel the heck out of his shirts. He was telling me last night how scary it was for him when his favorite shirts were being discontinued. He totally Racheled them....traveled to every Nordstrom trying to get as many as he could. :lol:

If its not Michelle, you're gonna tell someone about what I tell ya huh? haha :lol:

ROFL

Nooooooo....I meant to say that I take off the "skirt thingy" and then put on Jeans!!

Shheeeesh... :rolleyes:

hmm....mmmmmhmmmmm :rolleyes:

My favorite jeans are Abercrombie....love love love them!! Especially the ones with the holes in em! :)

And of course the jeans wouldn't look cool if they didn't have an Abercrombie sweater/t-shirt wrapped around the waist..... :P

"Friends".....ok....my favorite is Phoebe and then Joey. They both crack me up...Ross cracks me up too though....hmmmm....its so hard to pick. I gotta say Phoebe though....for sure. :D

smelly cat...smelly cat.... :lol::lol:

Pheobe is the one person from the show I could live without..... :lol:

Dave is Rachels friend not boss. :P

Good answer, precisely what I was about to say...... B)

I have also been wondering the same thing!! Thanks for asking. I thought maybe he was just the town hunk that the girls swoon over :P Seems that all the girls on here really LOVE :wub: when he shows up online. They all rush to their computers........ha Is the Dave gluten free?

Must find out more about this secret agent man :P

:lol: can I get a "ohhhh gaaaaawd" over here please..... not even close to being accurate!

Nope the Dave is NOT gluten free. He must go through the decontamination chamber whenever he visits.

Just had some awesome gluten like 5 mins ago :P

Well that that DEFINATELY takes him out of the running for "town hottie" :P No gluten eaters can be my poster boy.

ROFL :lol:

:lol::lol:

You're one of the reason we had to change our rules.....not to mention the spouses or friends or significant others of other members on the board.

There is also my husband Bill. He visits quite often but never speaks. Ha! I am his spokesperson.

Hi Bill! :D If he wants a job, just let us know.

Love the new pic!

I'll let you in on a secret, its not the first time I've been the cause of rules changing ;)

However usually its stricter enforcement, not less :lol:

Hey Rachel, can you get the said Michelle on here? Dave was at her store once so you must know her. :P

Nope....I dont think Michelle would come on here...she's much too busy to join in our silly games. :rolleyes:

Also.......not sure it would be a good idea. :unsure:

She knows too much about me. :ph34r: Michelle is my best friend. :D

She's also not gluten free...too many gluten eaters raises the risk of cc in Rachelville....cant have that now can we??? ;)

Uh oh! You may risk cross contamination from me from time to time since my husband is the celiac one. For the most part I am gluten free but unlike Bill, I can cheat from time to time if my daughter wants to order pizza or something. However, we doctored up some Amy's gluten free pizza the night before last & then I took the leftovers for the lunch the next day & it was YUMMY!

Ummm....no. Sorry, you dont win the prize....thanks for playing though. :)

Actually "rexing" is just something that we did for fun. Sometimes we would do it in a group but its not competitive or "organized". Its really hard to explain in writing....its kind of like dancing on skates I guess.....but you skate fast when you rex...you criss-cross your skates back and forth...really fast and in tune with the music. You can add little tricks in as you go. I sort of had a little routine that I did. Anyone who went to the rink often would have seen some people "rexing". Usually it would be the more experienced skaters.

Ok, we'll give you a break.......since Dave has already broke in, we'll leave it at that. :P

Havent gone rock climbing yet....still 3 hours away. Will try to post later on...let you guys know how it went.

Has anyone here seen "Supersize Me"??

I call it the "hamburger movie".....its a documentary about a guy who only eats McDonalds for one month and you can see how it affects his health. I saw it last night.

I ate soooo much McDonalds and fast food before I got sick...Firtst CT scan I got showed I had a fatty liver. After changing my diet drastically.....one year later...no fatty liver. Same thing happened to the guy in the movie...his liver got fatty in only a few weeks eating like that.

Oh man....I still miss Big Macs even after seeing this movie. :ph34r:

We saw that not long ago. I used to think I could eat McDonalds every day but after seeing that, I don't think I would ever want to or try to. Yuck!

      Welcome to the forum, @Kiwifruit, I agree further testing is needed.  Disaccharidase deficiency is a symptom of Celiac disease.   On your test results, this line  "IgA: 0.9 g/l (norm 0.8 - 4.0)" is referring to Total IgA and it's very low.  People with low or deficient Total IgA should also have DGP IgG test done.  Low Total IgA means you are making low levels of tTg  IgA as well, leading to false negatives or "weak positives".  Maybe a DNA test for known Celiac genes.   Anemia, diabetes, and thiamine deficiency can cause test results like these.  Get checked for B12 deficiency anemia and have your iron (ferritin) checked.  Vitamin D deficiency is common, too.   Might be time to find a gastrointestinal doctor who is more familiar with diagnosing Celiac Disease.   Best wishes on your journey!  Please keep us posted on your progress.

      Yes, there is a trend in the medical community to forego the endoscopy/biopsy and grant an official celiac diagnosis based on high tTG-IGA antibody scores alone. This trend started in the UK and is spreading to the USA medical community. And yes, 5-10x the normal level is what I have been seeing as the threshold as well. Here is the relevant section dealing from the article above dealing with the importance of the total IGA test being ordered. See the embedded attachment.

      Ok, interesting. Not what I was thinking that meant. I'm reading the article and trying to understand. I see this “According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy” My IgG is 90, which is 6 times. So to me that means it's highly likely I do have it. 
    • trents
      It just means you aren't IGA deficient, i.e., that IGA deficiency cannot have given you artificially low scores in the individual IGA celiac antibody tests. This is explained in the article Scott linked above.
    • hmkr
      Normal range: 70 - 400 mg/dL, a little above middle of the range. So what does that mean? Thank you! I will check out that page you linked. Appreciate it!
