Mark's aunt passed away--the one I've spoken about here....she was 92, an artist, and a really great person. She was more of an aunt to me ever since I've known her (35 years) than my own aunts. I'm going to miss her. Sad thing is that we won't be able to make the funeral--logistically it just can't work out

:( aww, sorry Pads......sounds like she had a good, long run....

:):) TILLYKKE MED FODSELSDAGEN, SOOOOZLE!

(Danish). . . . .....have a sooopah day!

:)

Thanks Emmel!

Happy Birthday Susie!!!

Ya got melting there, POeter? Won't happen here, methinks. 'Til March. <_<:angry:

SHOVELING!! don't know how you peeps live in snaugh....I really don't......too tired to even pick up dog poop most of the time, can't IMAGINE shoveling snow.....the ENERGY that would take. I swear I would be snaughed in for the entire winter.......could nae come out until it melted :unsure: might even die, er sumthin......

Thank you, sills, for all of yer birthday wishes. I got through it, which was my only plan and goal. Let's just say, I've had WAY better birthdays. :lol::huh:

stay warm, cold, psnowey sillies!!!!!!!!! :)

DingoGirl Enthusiast

oh, and speaking of picking up dog poop - the guy who invented this came into our office today (with my favorite cowboy named Dudley):

Open Original Shared Link

'tis really quite revolutionary. Shane got one for free, and so did Derek, but not I...I got there too late. <_< I shall see if Dudley can bring me one next time, for cheap. Imagine just scooping all the poop right into the sewer! No more plastic poop bags. :huh:

I gotta invent something.

SO glad you had champagne yesterday, Sooooze! :)

Open Original Shared Link

That is something. But.. . .. :huh: .....isn't it just as easy (easier, actually) to flush the poop down the toilet, as I do? I mean, ya gotta carry it to the sewer drain..... . ..I'm just as close to my toilet, usually..... . . ...don't need a hose. . .......just -- flush away. .....

Think I'm missin' sumfin ... .. ... :unsure:

:unsure: well, I suppose if yer dogs are poopin' inside the house.....it would be much easier to flush the refuse down the terlit........

:huh:

:lol:

are they, Emmel? pooping inside the house? Or do you bring the poop in from outside and flush it down the terlit? I must know :lol:

okay, well.......sometimes I don't scoop the poop for many days:ph34r: then there's a good-sized BAG of doo-doo, would be lovely to throw it down that sewer thingy, and not have bags of poo-poo trash. ;)

That way, there would only be kitteh poo poo in the trash can. Half as much sh!te.

B)

but wait a minute -

:unsure:

just thought of somethin.........

the poop is all over the yard.......so I'd have to put it in some kind of receptacle to get it TO doo doo drain, adn get it in there.......which means........I'd put it all in a bag, most likely, just as I do now.......then have to scoop it OUT of the bag to get it inside the doo-doo drain.......

or......maybe I could put it in some kind of permanent poop carrier/container, which is only used for transport over TO the sewer drain.......so let's say, I"ll use a metal pie tin. So the tin stays outside, year-round, covered in fecal matter, to be used daily to put the poop in the sewer. <blech>

:unsure:

You're right. it's too hard. :lol:

We really do give a lot of thought to all kinds of poop matters here, don't we. :lol:

G' Mornin', Poops! :lol:

are they, Emmel? pooping inside the house? Or do you bring the poop in from outside and flush it down the terlit? I must know

:lol: Yup, I use a plastic bag, pick up the two or three poops in our backyard (or DH goes ahead with this -- he oft beats me to it, and this causes quite a stir, both of us clambouring, fighting and elbowing each other as we struggle to be the first out the door), walk into the house with said poop in bag and flush it away. Sometimes takes TWO flushes.

:unsure:

:lol: DIS is phunnee

There is technique that must be honed and perfected... . ...... ..I can dump two or three big poops into the toilet bowl, directly out of said plastic bag, without ANY splash-up or contact made with the bowl. It's quite something, actually, and I think I should be interviewed on CNN, and I should absolutely be featured on Barbara Walters' Most Intriguing People of 2009 special.

      I'd like to second supplementation.  Around the time of my diagnosis and for a good while afterwards I had twitching muscles, including my face, as well as pins and needles and numbness.  We do have tremors in my family anyway, regardless of being coeliac, so I can't really comment on that. If you can find out where you are with your iron levels and B12, that's a good start.  I am not sure where you are posting from but in the UK normal lab results for B12 are quite a bit lower than in other countries, so you might find if you are borderline you will get some improvement by continuing to supplement that.   I found taking magnesium also incredibly helpful against facial twitches. I don't know about you, but all these symptoms increased my anxiety levels as I was worried about them.  That only served to make the symptoms worse.  So it might be worth looking into addressing any underlying anxiety issues.   I still notice that if I'm nervous, or worried, my blood sugar levels are down, some of the symptoms comes back temporarily.  It's like there is still a bit of a weakness there.

      Hello, @Itsabit, Your journey sounds very similar to mine.   I'm very concerned about your diet since you say you don't eat a lot of meat, which is the main source of B vitamins.  Nutritional deficiencies go along with Celiac Disease.  Blood tests are not accurate measurements of deficiency states.  The body robs stored vitamins from organs to circulate in the bloodstream to supply the brain and heart.  You can have deficiency symptoms before blood levels change. I have a hypersensitivity to sulfites, so much so that I had to switch my toothpaste to one that doesn't contain Sodium Lauryl Sulfate.  SLS can cause oral irritation as a side effect, too.   My mouth would burn and I avoided certain foods.  Dapsone contains sulfites, as do antibiotics.  Treatment with sulfites can precipitate a Thiamine deficiency disorder because sulfites cut thiamine in two making it useless. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35506963/ https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10506142/ I have an allergy to nickel, also.  Zinc helps keep other metals in balance in the body.  Zinc is also terribly important to skin health and oral health. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8445075/ https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11274920/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/1977254/ Thiamine (Vitamin B 1) deficiency disorder symptoms and altered thiamine metabolism can occur after radiation or chemo.   Thiamine and Niacin B 3 are important in nerve conduction.  When I was very malnourished, I had paresthesia that made me feel itchy all over, and made my dermatitis herpetiformis extremely unbearable.  The form of Niacin that causes flushing, Nicotinic Acid (not the same as nicotine in cigarettes) is beneficial because the flushing helps open the small capillaries in the skin which allows the antibodies to be cleared and disposed.  Pellagra can occur in Celiac Disease.   I had it, and my doctor didn't properly diagnose it, either.   I had a rash around my neck, Casal's Necklace, along with a blistering rash on my arms and any skin exposed to the sun.   https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8445075/ https://cgp.iiarjournals.org/content/10/4/169 https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11722086/ https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6780714/ https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10229844/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/1977254/ You should be checked for more than just B12 deficiency.  The eight B vitamins work together, and we need more of them when we're trying to heal.  They are water soluble, so the body can easily excrete them if not needed. Have you had your Vitamin D level checked?  Vitamin D regulates the immune system and lowers inflammation.   I hope you can find some benefit from my experiences.  Keep us posted on your progress.   P.S.  When trying not to itch the dermatitis herpetiformis, if you press gently on a large area (press with your whole hand) above the itchy spot, the itchiness goes away.  The bigger area of stimulation drowns out that one jangling dermatitis herpetiformis itchy nerve in the brain. For skin care products, I use tallow balm which is absorbed better into the skin than petroleum products or plant products.  Tallow balm (Vintage Traditions is my favorite) helps my Dermatitis Herpetiformis spots look and feel better quickly.  Tallow soap and olive oil soap is beneficial as well.

      Hello, @Jack Common, I know how frustrating health mysteries can be. Perhaps you're having a reaction to the medication you were given for the giardiasis you mentioned in another post. The giardiasis infection would account for the high Igg results.  Have you been reinfected? The site I've linked below has lots of information about the long term consequences of being treated with a medication frequently prescribed for giardiasis infection.   https://hormonesmatter.com/metronidazole-toxicity-doctor-denial/ https://hormonesmatter.com/?s=metronidazole https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3870550/ Please let us know if your symptoms may be due to this reaction to the prescription for giardiasis. Best wishes.
