The aforementioned Open Original Shared Link

I want him!!! Sooooo sweet!

Yes- the antibiotics are for the Lyme (well, technically bartonella). YOUR MOM HAS IT??????? :( Oh Rachelle- what a drag! How is she doing?

It's been a long road. She's been thru the ringer, and she just has to keep doing it over and over because of her liver function. Apparently he mother was bitten by a tick a year or so before she was conceived and the lyme actually crossed the placenta! She was born at 26 weeks, and in 1955, she's lucky she survived at all, weighing in at 3#! She's been sick off and on her whole life and it took until about 2 years ago when she found this amazing doctor who has done wonders for her, thank God!

Married a son's ex wife - 35 years younger than him.

Yes. Younger then the first 3 kids, slightly older than the one she married, and older then the last one. Then there were 2 kids they adopted but gave away. Very "Jerry Springer". (a show where odd people come on and confess to indiscretions and fight each other)

Sounds like the Ozarks is the perfect place for them :huh::lol::lol:

I KNOW! Where'd my clever pfunniness go?? I think I need to just start posting old quotes of mine that were humoroUs - - there were a few until about 500 pages ago.. ...... .. kind of like classic re-runs of sitcoms - - quite efficient for filling up air-time when there ain't nothing new brewing...

But thank GAWD you guys are still phunnee! :) The Psilly Oasis of Phunny still remains for me to sit down and visit, and chortle away.. . .

Me sleepy. 'course it's 5:30 on a Sunday morning, so makes sense.

Got some lattice stuff yesterday. I'll clean the deck off today and try to figure out the best way to do this cat block thing.

And maybe I'll plant something climbing in boxes to make it all look purty.

Just wanna point out that I only turned my heat off a couple weeks ago, and I'm sitting here in flannels and a sweatshirt wondering if it will be dry enough to sweep the leaves off the deck, because it sure ain't dry enough to mow the lawn.

We are having the coldest, wettest summer in a very long time.

Wow--I've been running the A/C non stop for a couple of months now. It's mid 90's during the day and mid 70's at night--the humidity is the killer, though and why I continually run the air. Luckily we have ceiling fans so I can turn the thermostat up a few degrees....this is normal for us this time of year. The only time I can work outside in the summer is in the early mornings.

Jess--didn't you have a rare hot spell last year?

:lol: No, just one of the random thoughts that went through my mind.

Hot and it keeps storming here. The AC cannot keep up. We will be replacing it this week.$$$

But that is neither phony nor psilly. I will try to speak only phony, psilly things ( or at least my idea of that).

We seem to have a permanent swamp in the backyard. We have applied to keep some alligators from the oil slick in the gulf. Can see it now... "No honey, don't put the dog out until I've fed the gators."

Jestgar Rising Star

Bah! Pouring rain here. Chickens are glaring at me from underneath their house. Why do all the animals think I made it rain?

Not the ones that believe in a God. You can blame the weather on God. I think the dog may blame me for the thunder.

So by having non-smooth-skinned children I still get "it's all your fault" without getting the macaroni-glued-onto-paper pictures that declare undying love?

      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.
