I'm not sure where she is at the moment, but she was heading for the Toronto Islands. You can only get there by boat, and the ferry is going on strike in 3 hours along with the rest of the city staff. There are private water taxis.

Jeepers, hope Em gets back ok.

Seems to me that getting "stuck" on an island in the summer would not be the worst catastrophe to ever happen!! Oh! Why did we not all go wif her?!?!?

Hi Pieter! Pah-tay, Shroomie, SJesS, BunBun...hi to you all! Welcome Diva-doggie! 'Tis a great place to come hang out! Anything is up for discussion, teasing is allowed...judgements are not. We is all phriends here. I'm still amazed at how so many of you pheel like x-tended phamily! :wub: This includes pets (or phurry children, if you prefer).

Shroomie..I beg to differ on the weather assertion that it is never just right. It's always just right....but sometimes we want a different flavor! :P

Mite all.....sleep tite.

My sentiments exactly!!

Aye, we is never happy with what we have; except for the farmer I saw in a paddockfield next to the road doing a dance of joy on the back of his pickup in the pouring rain at the end of the drought :lol: :lol: By the way, make mine chocolate!

Just walked in the door... :unsure: Looking around... :huh: What do I do now??? :)

I do! It's lynndog diva from way down Carolina way :D

Hullo Lynnie, welcome to wackl :blink:

Have fun. Spelling is optional. So is coherency, for that matter.

*giggle*

you would know ;)

Dis place is overflowing with wine (or whine), peaches and nectarines, strawberries and melons (wot, no cherries??) phleazy or non-phleazy kittehs, grey hair, permed hair, butchered hair, red hair and white, greysilver hair, phrizzy hair, hairless heads and hamster brows.

It is full of weather that is too hot, cold, dry, wet, gloomy, windy, thunderous or humid, but nevah just right.

Not to mention mexican gardeners, civkebs chickens, large thumbed men, and mysterious statues.

Some day I'll day you my story of spending the night with German lesbians while stuck in Bologna during an Italian train strike.

WIH? You were stuck in bologny with German lesbians :huh::unsure:

I'm not sure where she is at the moment, but she was heading for the Toronto Islands. You can only get there by boat, and the ferry is going on strike in 3 hours along with the rest of the city staff. There are private water taxis.

I think 4 liters wasn't quite enuff :unsure: Is Shady a good swimmer?

Anything is up for discussion, teasing is allowedencouraged required

Well, I see that Lynnie has been introduced around da table whilst I was away, so let me jump in and say Hi there! Do not try to fight it, Sillyville is like the "Hotel California"--you can check out, but you can nevah leave (nor will you want to :rolleyes:). Make yo self comfy--care for a scotch? Wine? Mojito? Russian? Mexican? We got em all. Just slip into the ho tub and tell us about yourself. Got any pets? I'm pretty sure there is still a catnippers anonymous meeting going on :unsure:

sincerely--

Her Mimmjesty (but you'se can call me Rachel)

The better story is being held in a georgian compound with an expired visa, surrounded by little boys with kalashnikovs.

Lynnie Apprentice

Do I have any pets? lol Ohhh yea. We have 10 animals. One Pomeranian, her name is Syndi, one Chuhuahua, her name is Diva, as you can see in my avatar, six cats, one parakeet and a Finsch's Conure. His name is Sweet Pea and he is amazing.

As you might have figured out, I am a gay woman...any others here??? I hope? :rolleyes:

I live with my girlfriend now for 8 years. Never ever thought we would make it this long. I guess we are doing something right.

This board seems like a really fun place so far. There is another message board that I have been going to now for about 5 or 6 years. I am friends with the owner. But, I am just getting kind of board with it and I have been thinking about finding another message board to go to.

I never thought it would be a message board about Celiac Disease, but heck! Who cares! You all just seem so nice so far and I am so looking forward to hopefully getting to know you guys!

Thanks for the warm welcoming btw.

I know there's a joke in there somewhere :lol:

So, Sils, I had a lurvly day (pfft). I made the lemon cake that was posted on this forum--last week? It was very good. But, I screwed up my flour mix by adding baking soda and salt and xanthan gum before I got my flour measured out and had a lot extra. I had to use it up, so I made a batch of white chcolate cookie bars, which were so tasty.

My PMS finally passed into oblivion sometime this aft, but dangit I am wiped out. We spent the afternoon/evening at Scott's parents and it was very nice. I gave him a ladder ball set for father's day (and what a nice set of balls it was).

I have to do the thing tomorrow (that thing I hate, despise, and loathe).

I'm going out to check the weather smoke and then it's lights out.

Okay, dat's it!! I'm sick of everyone being able to be doing subscript, underline, color, etc., etc., and being able to hide all the coding. I can nae do that and feel such an idjil. Prithee, give me da key to da doorl!! I promise I won't make a copy of it. Though sometimes it works and I donna know why!! I see the last one, it works!!! :o How come that happened???

Mimmomy!!!! a man who needs a ladder for his balls!! What size man is dat??? :lol: :lol:

I don't do that thing you don't llike doing; gave it up for Lent and never went back to it. Don't miss it at all so mebbe it wasn't a Lenten sacrifice :o

So far as I know, anyone's sexual orientation is okay here. Who cares??? As long as you is funny and psilly, anyone can come, Lynnie. Haille, if we was to start making any rules like that there would be nobody here.

I never thought it would be a message board about Celiac Disease, but heck! Who cares! You all just seem so nice so far and I am so looking forward to hopefully getting to know you guys!

Holy Smores . . . you'll know more than you'd ever want to know . . . in fact, based on the previous menstual cyle discussions, I think we're spending enough time with each other that we are all synching up.

Thanks for the warm welcoming btw.

You betcha . . . all you need is a juvenile good sense of humoUr and lousy spelling skills and you're in like flint. (We had a couple of teen psillies for a short time . . . but they found us too immature)

Jess . . . seriously . . . how long do we have to wait to find out if we you got the job!!!

Luckily France is one hour ahead of us ...so when they arrive at their hotel in Paris it'll be 6.00pm (DINNER TIME!)

Wish I gnu . . . but it's goin' to pot (not that kind of pot, nikki). I sure wish that desiring to be 30 pounds lighter would work better at shedding the pounds than it does.

That is awesome that you have been been in a stable relationship for that long--it's longer than most marraiges last these days, fa-s$#&e's sake. My husband and I have been married almost 16 years, but we have been together for 21 exclusively and have known each other since our early teens :huh: no wonder the mystery is solved still there ;);)

I find that love is all in the eye of the ball be holder. If you can even tolerate each other, let alone laugh together, after so many years, you are doing things right. Plus, you have to play together. For instance, Scott let me play with his balls yesterday--in fact, he seemed to take great pleasure in it :rolleyes::lol:

Prithee, give me da key to da doorl!! I promise I won't make a copy of it.

Neroli, WIH is going on back there?

and what does prithee mean? :huh:

menstual cyle discussions,

pronounced mens-tool cyle? Is that like a new kind of home repair thing? I don't have cable, so ?? Can I get this at Home Depot? :unsure:

OK...I am ready to tell you my secret now....

Your Majesty, the bard would be rollinl' in his grave....It means do it NOW, or else :ph34r:

Glad to have some sports TV here that is not all manly grunting and shoving and beating each uvver up, manipulating heavy machinery and stuff. Have watched some golf, some Wimbledon, and some cycling while paying me bills--not lots of bills, just a slow payer :blink: Makes a nice change from rugby, rugby league, soccer (football to you, Nikki), cricket, horseracing--well, I like that a bit like the Kentucky Darby, but not EVERY DAMNED DAY!!, cricket (some matches last five days!!! and they telecast the whole danged thang!!! oh, the boredom of it all. :huh: Do ya think we get any figure skating??Hahaha, not bloomin' likely. :(

Have not been down to the valley in five whole days--think I must have left my psilly down there :lol:

Another day without a rejection letter. We're still in the running towards becoming America's Next Top Model a peon in a different lab.

Hey all! Hope yer all swell! (Not swelled).

MiniMom .... I'm pretty sure that prithee comes from pray thee...as in I beg of you...or pretty please.

Jgzann-it ...wish you'd hear about that job already! I'm sure they want you to start asap and forgot to tell you!

Pets.....pets....hmmmm do fish count? I have 2 Koi, 6 goldfish (all gettin' big), 2 plectocarpi, 6 mosquito-fish. Got one kitterkat (phinally), how's about tadpoles....got hundreds of them. We'll see how many survive the fish! :P How 'bout Telehubby....does he count too? Lin-knee, I think most of us here are pet-peeples.

Ray-shall....just wha'dya mean about dirty people? Mexican gardeners? Is Psuess' friend now stalking you? Or....what? I know it's not me....you have not seen me after playing outside. :ph34r:

Not much to talk about tonite...obviously. Worked, came home, played in the gardens, fed the fishes, fed the cat, fed the Telehubby, worked in the gardens, it got too dark to see so here I am! Sorry to be so boring! :huh:

      Yes, I'd like to know also if a "total IGA" test was ever ordered. It checks for IGA deficiency. If you are IGA deficient, it will likely render the individual celiac IGA antibody tests invalid. Total IGA goes by other names as well:  Immunoglobulin A (IgA) Test Serum IgA Test IgA Serum Levels Test IgA Blood Test IgA Quantitative Test IgA Antibody Test IgA Immunodeficiency Test People who are IGA deficient should have IGG tests run as well. Check this out:    I am also wondering if your on again/off again gluten free experimentation has sabotaged your testing. For celiac disease testing to be valid, one must be eating generous amounts of gluten for weeks/months leading up to the test.
    • Scott Adams
      I’m so sorry you’re going through this—it sounds like you’ve been on a really challenging journey with your health. Your symptoms (stomach pains, bloating, low iron, joint pain, brain fog, etc.) do sound like they could be related to gluten sensitivity or another condition like non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS). It’s interesting that your bloodwork hasn’t shown celiac markers, but the lymphocytosis in your duodenum could still point to some kind of immune response or irritation, even if it’s not classic celiac disease. The fact that your symptoms improved when you went gluten-free but returned when you reintroduced gluten (especially with the donut incident) is a pretty strong clue that gluten might be a trigger for you. It’s also worth noting that symptoms can be inconsistent, especially if your body is still healing or if there are other factors at play, like stress, cross-contamination, or other food intolerances. Do you have more info about your blood test results? Did they do a total IGA test as well? 
    • KDeL
      For years, I have dealt with various gluten related symptoms like stomach pains, bloating, IBS-C "ish" digestive issues, low iron, low Vit D, joint pains, brain fog, and more. I finally got a double scope and stomach looks clear, but I have some lymphocytosis of the duodenum. I am wondering if this sounds familiar to anyone, where I have not shown celiac red flags in bloodwork IGA tests. WIll be following up soon with GI Dr, but so far, my symptoms are intermittent. I go back and forth with gluten-free diet (especially this past year.... did two tests where the stomach pains I had went away without gluten in diet. HOWEVER, I added it back a third time and I didn't get the pains)   Anyway, I am so confused and scared to eat anything now because I recently had a few bites of a yeasty donut and I immediately got so sick. Any thoughts??
    • Peggy M
      Kroeger has quite a few Gluten free items.  Right now they are redoing my Kroeger store and are adding everything into the regular sections.  Since this was done some new ones have been added.  Publix and Ingles also have great selections. I actually shop Walmart and Food City to since prices on some items vary from store to store.
    • Scott Adams
      Sorry but I don't have specific recommendations for doctors, however, starting out with good multivitamins/minerals would make sense. You may want to get your doctor to screen you for where you different levels are now to help identify any that are low, but since you're newly diagnosed within the past year, supplementation is usually essential for most celiacs.
