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.

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??? :)

Maybe...hugs to everyone!!! :D

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)

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.

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.

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:

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. :(

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:

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By Jillian83 · Posted

      He is. Which makes everything even more difficult. I’m not a believer in “staying for the kids” but I have nowhere to go and it’s not just me, it’s me plus my babies. We live in a beautiful place, lots of land in the country and me and the kids love the place we’ve called home for their entire lives. But Im seeing that he’ll never change, that my kids deserve a happy healthy Momma, and that staying in this as is will be the early death of me. Then I look at the scars covering my entire body…this disease and the chronic stress I’ve been enduring for years that tell me I’m no longer beautiful and no one will ever look at me with interest again. I try self care, try to give myself grace so I can just start loving myself enough to gain strength but the slightest sparkle in my eye and skip in my step attracts his wrath and it all comes crashing ten fold. Life is just absolutely railing me from every single direction leaving me wanting to wave that white flag bc I don’t feel like there’s much hope no matter what happens.

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By Jillian83 · Posted

      Hi, I was recently diagnosed with Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis after years of suffering without answers. I lost my mind. I lost my job. I lost so much time. I lost Me. Conventional doctors are opulent come near me and the one who did sat across the room, misdiagnosed me, pumped me full of steroids which collapsed my entire hip for 6 months. So without answers I began my holistic journey. Fast forward a couple of years and still struggling with a mysterious whole body itchy, crawling “skin hell”, perfect teeth now deteriorating, thick hair now thinning rapidly and no more than a day or 2 at most relief….An acquaintance opened up a functional medicine practice. Cash only, I found a way. Within a month tests clearly showing my off the charts gluten allergy/sensitivity as well as the depletion of vital nutrients due to leaky gut and intestinal damage. dermatitis herpetiformis was more than likely what I was experiencing with my skin. I was happy. I thought this is easy, eat healthy Whole Foods, follow the diet restrictions and I finally get to heal and feel confident and like myself again very soon! 😔 Supplements are very pricey but I got them and began my healing. Which leads to the other major issue: not working, stay at home Mom of young kids, entirely financially dependent on my man of 7 plus years. He’s never been supportive of anything I’ve ever done or been thru. He controls everything. I’m not given much money ever at a time and when he does leave money it’s only enough to possibly get gas. His excuse is that I’ll spend it on other things. So my “allowance” is inconsistent and has conditions. He withholds money from me as punishment for anything he wants. Since being diagnosed, he’s gained a new control tactic to use as punishment. He now is in control of when I get to eat. He asked for proof of my diagnosis and diet bc he said I made it up just to be able to eat expensive organic foods. Then after I sent him my file from my doctor he then said she wasn’t a real doctor. 😡. I go days upon days starving, sometimes breaking down and eating things I shouldn’t bc I’m so sick then I pay horribly while he gets annoyed and angry bc I’m not keeping up with all the duties I’m supposed to be doing. His abuse turns full on when I’m down and it’s in these desperate times when I need his support and care the most that I’m punished with silence, being starved, ignored, belittled. He will create more of a mess just bc I’m unable to get up and clean so that when I am better, I’m so overwhelmed with chores to catch up that the stress causes me to go right back into a flare from hell and the cycle repeats. I’m punished for being sick. I’m belittled for starving and asking for healthy clean water. I’m purposely left out of his life. He won’t even tell me he’s going to the grocery or to get dinner bc he doesn’t want me to ask him for anything. I have no one. I have nothing. Im not better. My supplements ran out and I desperately need Vitamin D3 and a methylated B complex at the very minimal just to function….he stares at me blankly…no, a slight smirk, no words. He’s happiest when im miserable and I am miserable.  this is so long and im condensing as much as I can but this situation is so complicated and disgusting. And it’s currently my life. The “IT” girl, the healthy, beautiful, perfect skin, perfect teeth, thick and curly locks for days, creative and talented IT girl….now I won’t even leave this house bc Im ashamed of what this has dont to my body, my skin. Im disgusted. The stress is keeping me from healing and I think he knows that and that’s why he continues to keep me in that state. He doesn’t want me confident or successful. He doesn’t want me healed and healthy bc then how would he put the blame of all his problems on me? This journey has been hell and I’ve been in Hell before. I’ve been killed by an ex, I’ve been raped, robbed, held hostage, abused beyond nightmares but the cruelty I’ve experienced from him bc of this disease is the coldest I’ve ever experienced. I’ve wanted to give up. Starving and in tears, desperate…I found a local food pantry in our small town so I reached out just saying I had Celiac and was on hard times. This woman is blessing me daily with prepared gluten free meals, donations, educational info, people who know this disease and how they manage life and the blessings just keep coming. But it’s overwhelming and I feel like I don’t deserve it at all. He just glared and I know he’s going to sabotage it somehow. I don’t even know what to do anymore. I’m so broken and just want peace and healing.

      @Colleen H   I am just curious,  when you were tested for coeliac disease, did the doctors find out if you had any deficiencies? Sometimes muscle pain can be caused by certain deficiencies, for example, magnesium, vitamin D, calcium, and potassium.   Might be worth looking into having some more tests.  Pins and needles can be neuropathy, again caused by deficiencies, such as iron and B12,  which can be reversed if these deficiencies are addressed. In the UK where I live we are usually only tested for iron, B12 and vitamin D deficiencies at diagnosis.   I was very iron anemic and supplementation made a big difference.  B12 was low normal, but in other countries the UK's low normal would be considered a deficiency.  My vitamin D was low normal, and I've been supplementing ever since (when I remember to take it!) My pins and needles definitely started to improve when my known deficiencies were addressed.  My nutritionist also gave me a broad spectrum supplement which really helped, because I suspect I wasn't just deficient in what I mention above but in many other vitamins and minerals.  But a word of warning, don't take iron unless blood tests reveal you actually need it, and if you are taking it your levels must be regularly monitored because too much can make you ill.  (And if you are currently taking iron, that might actually be making your stomach sore - it did mine, so my GP changed my iron supplementation to a gentler form, ferrous gluconate). Lastly, have you been trying to take anything to lessen the pain in your gut?  I get a sore stomach periodically, usually when I've had too much rich food, or when I have had to take an aspirin or certain antibiotics, or after glutening.  When this happens, I take for just a few days a small daily dose of OTC omeprazole.  I also follow a reflux or gastritis diet. There are lots online but the common denominators to these diets is you need to cut out caffeine, alcohol, rich, spicy, acidic food etc and eat small regularly spaced meals.   When I get a sore stomach, I also find it helpful to drink lots of water.  I also find hot water with a few slices of ginger very soothing to sip, or camomile tea.  A wedge pillow at night is good for reflux. Also,  best not to eat a meal 2-3 hours before going to bed. If the stomach pain is getting worse, though, it would be wise to see the doctor again. I hope some of this helps. Cristiana

      Knowing what to do when feeling unwell.

      By Me,Sue · Posted

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed that I feel nauseous after possibly being glutened. I think the thing that I have got better at is knowing what to do when I feel wiped out after a gluten 'episode'. I drink loads of water, and have just started drinking peppermint tea. I also have rehydration powders to drink. I don't feel like eating much, but eventually feel like I need to eat. Gluten free flapjacks, or gluten free cereal, or a small gluten free kids meal are my go to. I am retired, so luckily I can rest, sometimes even going to bed when nothing else works. So I feel that I am getting better at knowing how to try and get back on track. I am also trying to stick to a simpler menu and eat mostly at home so that I can be more confident about what I am eating. THANKS TO THOSE WHO REPLIED ABOUT THE NAUSEA .
