Judy, so sorry you have had such a difficult summer :( I'm glad things are looking up for a change :)

:lol: About trying them in the darkness of my own house. I will probably go as far as trying them on and that might be it- we'll see. But I am so glad so many of you are so enthusiastic and have such a deep love for your crocs.

I will be with Andrea, and represent for the sneakers. In my case I live in running shoes and cross-trainers, ooh ooh and flip flops (I was scolded for saying thongs last time :lol: )

I'm not sure why but I've never owned a pair of converse. :huh:

It seems like I've always liked the high top ones but just never bought myself a pair....hmmm...one of these days I'll have to get myself a pair. Unlike the Crocs....I could definately be seen in public wearing converse. ;)

:lol:

Julie...yup, no high heels for this girl....my feet just werent made to be all arched up and unnatural like that. I'll keep both of my flat feet on the ground thank you very much. :P

Thanks Patti!

MMMmm,very retro-yes I'd wear them with jeans (I live in jeans)and more importantly they are practical :lol:

Actually,they look like something my son would wear (he's 17yrs)

:o Am I too old for converse sneakers??!!

I'll wear high heels, too. I have such a high arch that I find them rather comfortable. If I'm not wearing heels, I'm either wearing moccasins or Memphistos (kind of like Birkenstocks, but mine are black patent leather with rhinstones, and they have a gel sole instead of cork).

I don't have any Converse, but I have a pair of white, low-top look-alikes. I wear them a lot, too, but usually only when I've been working out.

Nikki--Of course you're not too old to wear Converse! I think they'd be cute with your jeans B)

My feet are pretty spoiled since I discovered Birkenstocks :ph34r: I wear the sandals all summer (I have many colors/patterns) and I wear their clogs in the colder weather. I do, of course, have other shoes and boots--but those are my mainstays!

do you think it could have been the Hursey's Mr. Good Bar?

thought they were on the delphi list as ok.

God i forgot how sick you get

OR---

it was the rice crackers from Trader joes Ate then for 6 months then noticed soy...so just had some yesterday as soy lethicen..and threw package away but might have had some other soy too.

Hate to go on dailystrength and post i didn't do garden club.

Oh Judy--I'm so sorry about the garden club :( I know how you were looking forward to getting back there. I seem to remember you having trouble with Hershey's before--maybe it was that. Hershey's gets me every time--I think we must be sensitive to the CC from there. Or maybe the crackers :unsure:

Don't be sad--go outside on this beautiful (for a change!) day, and make your gardens even more beautiful than they already are :D Set your sights on the next meeting--you've come so far, you'll get there for sure!! ;)

I took that other pic down--I looked ticked off in it, once I saw it up on the board, I didn't want people to think I was unfriendly :lol:

So sweet of you. You know how much i wanted to get into the 'real world'

I feel like I was run over by a truck..Maybe in a couple of hrs will go outside to garden alittle.

Just can't be far from the potty right now...

just makes me so mad. I should have known better>

Yes probably the 2 together did it big time.

haven't felt this bad in a long time so yes we have come far to have to remember how bad it was.

please put your yellow shirt picture back up I just loved that one.

anyone who sees your posts will know your not unfriendly... :) I liked the blue shirt but loved the smile on the yellow shirt.

eye dr just called and wants to see me at 1:00 today.

lord will it ever end.

don't want this to be a 'downer post' at least the sun is shinning and it is a beautiful day.

thanks for caring

love you

Judy- I am so sorry to hear that you havent been feeling well. I hope you feel better soon. The weather is getting better, not too hot, not too cold.

I have never worn a pair of Converse high tops. I did wear Vans though. Ironically they had poka dots on them, colored red, blue and yellow, the colors of a Wonder bread package. Boy were they UGLY! :lol:

I am still on the look out for the Crocs. I havent seen them and I am trying to get it out of my dad where he bought them so I can go and get them.

Judy,

What is the garden club? I'm sorry you missed it and I hope you feel better. Just getting outside in the fresh air can do wonders. :)

by the way...you could never ever be "downer" here and speaking of pics...where is yours?? I liked that last one you had up. :)

Patti...did I miss your new avatar?? I remember a yellow sweater...is that the one Judy's talking about? :unsure:

My mom is still really wanting me to put up a diferent picture of me. She says its her favorite....but HELLO...theres a toilet located directly behind my head! I keep telling her I dont want a pic of me and the toilet...as my avatar! :lol:

Rachel, I vote for you and the toilet. After telling us all about this picture, you really need to show it to us! Plus, it's a very appropriate place to have a picture of a toilet!

Rachel--The famous "toilet picture"--is there anyway to crop it so the toilet isn't so obvious? I'd love to see it--sounds intregueing :D Being a Celiac board, the toilet won't bother anyone, anyway. We're used to those! <_<:lol:

I put up a different picture of myself for about 5 minutes, and didn't like it so I went back to the flower. Judy was quick, though, and caught it while it was there! :lol:

Those Crocs sound perfect for gardening/working outside. I'm gonna look into a pair!

      9 Year Old test results - help interpret

      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 i...

      Guidance on next steps after the lab tests

      The only vegetable sources of B12 are some fermented bean products using a certain microbiotic culture. It is next to impossible to get adequate B12 from vegetable sources without supplementation. Same with D3. Some mushrooms can make D3 when exposed to UV light. Are you vegetarian or vegan? Do you do dairy and eggs or no animal products at all? Low...

      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.

      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

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?

It is next to impossible to get adequate B12 from vegetable sources without supplementation. Same with D3. Some mushrooms can make D3 when exposed to UV light. Are you vegetarian or vegan? Do you do dairy and eggs or no animal products at all? Low B12 and D3 could definitely cause or contribute to many of the symptoms you have been experiencing but would not cause celiac disease. It is more likely the other way around, especially if you are a vegetarian eating no animal products. Many of your symptoms seem neurological in nature. It is well known that the B vitamin complex is vital to neurological health but so is D3. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9820561/
