I went to bed. Slept till almost 5 this morning. :D :D :D

I had forgotten how good it feels to sleep for 8 hours. I gotta do my week's shopping before starting on the house. Don't have a full day to paint 'cause rehearsals have started.

Tradition! Tradition!

Mornin' Pholks!! Went to a "Hoe Down" fundraiser last night. It benefited a Hippotherapy facility. It was held at the facility so I got to pet all the horsies. Smackl would have loved to have come with us but then she would have seen the big framed horse photo collection thingy that we got for her at the silent auction. I just love silent auctions. I do some of my best Christmas shopping at those things.

Also wanted to mention . . . it's that time of year . . . I'm headed off on my 4th? 5th? annual girls trip to Hilton Head. I leave on Tuesday and I'll be back Sunday. I really need a break after working four days at the preschool. Did I mention that I got to deal with my first vomiting incindent at the school? I was lucky enough to miss them all last year so I got hit with an early one this year.

OK . . . laundry's going . . . have to lay in the supplies before I leave . . . also pack up hubby and the kids for a camping trip whilst I'm gone. Lotsa work before I get to leave.

Em-a-lisch .... at least you're finding out now that you need to replace the phur-nase....better than when it's bitter kold and you got snow up to yer tusch! Hope you can get a super-duper efficient model...more heat than you can stand and really cheep to use (nice to think about anyway).

Then again...we are still picking tomatos in the garden and it's almost October! Still hoping for balmy weather before the cold comes...(you're probably all thinking that I'm some kind of dreamer...er sumfin... :P )

Hey flourexpertgirl . . . or Juedee . . . or anybody else that might know . . .

Last year I brought in a plant that I wanted to winter inside (would not have made it outside and it was 'spensive). Apparently it was infested wif gnats (eggs in the dirt?) What do you do to prevent that?? What do you do if it happens anyways? . . . :ph34r: . . . btw, plant died anyway (hubby's fault).

What kind of plant was it? Not that it matters to the fungus gnats....just curious :P Anyway, before I bring the plants in I water them with a mild dish soap solution, and wash down the leaves to kill anything I can. Then I place a gnat-trap in or by the plants.....a small dish with dish soap and soda. The sweet attracks the adults and the soap dessicates (and kills) them. There are also "sticky traps" available if you can find them...yellow is good. Hope this helps you some. :)

Awwww Jude :( krap, krap, krap, krap, krap. Can you sue the inspectors? Or at least try to get them to fess up and pay for the damage/kleen up? They have to have insurance against this sort of thing (don't they?). Keeping you in prayers.

Jooooodie, that is disgusting. :angry::angry: What a horrific thing to come home to, and what a band of idiots -- I've got steam coming outta my ears!! Tareeeesuh is right...the company must have insurance against this kind of unbelievable behavior.

But this is the very last thing you need.

Stay strong, girl!

      Waiting on biopsy results but wanted opinion on bloodwork

      By Lynnard · Posted

      Thank you - that makes perfect sense and I understand. celiac disease is an autoimmune disease which will cause further damage while gluten sensitivity is different. Based on my symptoms and bloodwork, I am almost certain I have celiac disease.  I kind of hate to hope for a positive biopsy but a negative one would be frustrating for sure. Regardless, I have done a lot of research on gluten-free diet and am prepared to begin a new lifestyle journey - with a lot of questions along the way.  I appreciate your information and advice!

      Waiting on biopsy results but wanted opinion on bloodwork

      By trents · Posted

      Let's talk about terminology for the sake eliminating (as much as possible) confusion. Unfortunately, the terms "gluten sensitive" and "gluten intolerant" have, historically, been used indiscriminately. There are two primary categories of gluten disorders whose "official" terms are 1. celiac disease and 2. Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or NCGS for short.  I believe there is an evolution toward using the term "gluten intolerance" to refer to celiac disease and "gluten sensitive" to refer to NCGS. I say that because the words "gluten sensitivity" are actually found in the official medical term for the non celiac medical disorder involving gluten. Does that make sense? The difference between celiac disease and NCGS is that celiac disease causes inflammation in the small bowel lining and (over time) does damage to it so that it becomes inefficient in absorbing nutrients from what we eat. This is the area of the intestinal track where all of our nutrients are absorbed. Of course, this can lead to any number of other medical problems. NCGS, on the other hand, does not cause inflammation or damage to the lining of the small bowel and therefore does not produce the antibodies that celiac disease antibody tests look for. Neither will NCGS, therefore, produce a positive biopsy result. NCGS and celiac disease, however share many of the same symptoms in the area of GI distress and NCGS is 10x more common than celiac disease. There is, at the present time, no defining test for NCGS so an NCGS diagnosis is arrived at by first eliminating celiac disease for which we do have tests for. Having said that, some experts believe that NCGS can be a precursor to celiac disease.  Yes, you are correct in stating that both conditions require a gluten free diet.  So, in the absence of official testing for celiac disease (and official testing done under the proper conditions) a person who is experiencing distress when consuming gluten cannot be certain whether they are dealing with celiac disease or NCGS. Not to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease while actually having the condition makes it difficult for some folks to stay on the gluten free bandwagon. It's just the psychology of the situation and wanting to rationalize away a very inconvenient and socially isolating medical condition.

      By Lynnard · Posted

      Thank you!  This is super helpful and confirms everything I have read. I was definitely eating lots of gluten before both testing and endoscopy. If the biopsies do come back negative, I'm wondering how conclusion/distinction is made between celiac and gluten intolerance is made.  Or does it matter because presumably recommendation of gluten-free diet will be the protocol??

      Weak positive blood test and marsh type 1

      By trents · Posted

      You are welcome! We frequently get similar comments. Knowledge about celiac disease in the medical community at large is, unfortunately, still significantly lacking. Sometimes docs give what are obviously bum steers or just fail to give any steering at all and leave their patients just hanging out there on a limb. GI docs seem to have better knowledge but typically fail to be helpful when it comes to things like assisting their patients in grasping how to get started on gluten free eating. The other thing that, to me at least, seems to be coming to the forefront are the "tweener" cases where someone seems to be on the cusp of developing celiac disease but kind of crossing back and forth over that line. Their testing is inconsistent and inconclusive and their symptoms may come and go. We like to think in definite categorical terms but real life isn't always that way.

      How to navigate living with dermatitis herpetiformis

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      Hey @Morgan Tiernan, Sounds just like my experience. I was diagnosed with dermatitis herpetiformis over 10 years ago. It appeared suddenly as a very itchy rash which looked like Eczema. When a steroid cream didn't clear it up, my Dermatologist (who had come across it before) suspected dermatitis herpetiformis and performed a skin biopsy which came back positive for dermatitis herpetiformis. The important thing is to get a definitive diagnosis of dermatitis herpetiformis. What you've described sounds like classic dermatitis herpetiformis though. Hopefully, your Dermatologist has come across dermatitis herpetiformis before and performs the skin biopsy correctly as trents mentioned. I've had the blisters on the knees, hips, forearms/elbows or anywhere that pressure is applied to the skin ... from clothing or otherwise. They itch like nothing on earth, and yes salt from sweat or soaps/shower gels will irritate a lot. I've been on Dapsone and it is very very effective at eliminating the dermatitis herpetiformis itch, and improved my quality of life in the early stages of getting on top of dermatitis herpetiformis while I adjusted to the gluten-free diet. But it does have various side effects as trents said. It can effect the red blood cells, lowering hemoglobin and can cause anemia, and requires regular blood monitoring whilst on it. You would need to consider it carefully with your Dermatologist if you do have dermatitis herpetiformis. Here's a very informative webinar from Coeliac Canada discussing everything dermatitis herpetiformis related.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PAdmsNiyfOw I've also found this recent interview with a Dermatologist about dermatitis herpetiformis to be educational.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rZnLeKutgUY Keep the chin up and keep advocating for yourself for a proper diagnosis. Though it sounds like you're on top of that already. Are you in the UK or Ireland? I'm curious because your surname is Irish.
