T'was thinking a similar thing meselph.

Will it work with pence?? :unsure: - what denomination should I use??

One p =too small, as is 5p

Two p or 10?? Heads or tailz??

I MUST KNOW!!!!!!!!! :lol:

Meanwhile...EM!!!...tough luck on MIL arrival on what will be the longest day <_<

Have you bubble wrapped yer car yet???

Sparkling va-jay-jays!! :lol:

BEVEL!! - how's the bite on your arm?? :unsure:

PHlat tYre this morning <_< ...never welcome,then on to the hospital for Terry's cardiology appt.

I think I told you guys he was having tests on his heart - well today was the results of his cardiac MRI.

The doc said it showed that Terry HAS HAD several heart attacks :o:unsure::o

What the french toast?!?!?!

I have actually took him to the ER many times over the years with chest pain - but it was dismissed as indigestion/arthritis of the ribs etc :(

The doc said it was quite unusual as he has NO furring of the arteries <_<

He thinks it's either the drugs for his arthritis have caused it, OR, a virus, OR caused by electrolyte/salt imbalances when he was very ill/thin pre dx of celiac disease.

Whatever the cause he has to start an drug to help his heart pump better <_<

American quarters are about 2 cm.

Heart attacks? What the french toast indeed? Hope the meds help.

I'd like to talk about eyebrows fer a minute. Now I know Em's dear mum has had her issues wif them, and Em being the dutiphul daughter that she is remedied the situation wif an appropriately coloUred Sharpie. I keep reading that we need a strong brow to "frame the face".

So, I very lightly--in short whisp-like strokes--phill in the ends of me brows. Just the outer third or so where they have become thinner. Gad :o I look like Joan Crawford! :o:lol: I see models on TV getting a "brow makover" and they look natural and fresh--very Brook Shields...I look like a screen star reject from the 40's. Or Uncle Leo that time. :P Just awful :lol:

Won't be trying that again..... :unsure:

Just be forever thankful that you did NOT use a Sharpie for these outer-third, wisp-like strokes.... . . they'd be on there for a couple o' weeks. .....!

I try not to do much with my brows as I tend to pluck the wrong thing. Get a bald spot. Have to use the sharpie. ;)

Well, the A/C man was here. Many things are wrong with the a/c. He has it limping along until I can get a new one. He had good news for the boys....will be easy to run a duct into the garage.

Hub and oldest son want to make " The Garage Mahal". They are going to get a "Pod" that you put in the drive and fill it with all the garage contents. Then they will paint the walls different fun colors, paint the ceiling, coat the floor, put special and no doubt expensive shelving units and hangers. They are going to run cable and put in a flat screen TV. Getting A/C and heat are part of the master plan. Will see if they can actually devote the time to make this come through.

We have a 3 car garage and 4 cars. 3 fit in the garage. The intent is to organize the stuff that is in there and move the cars out when you want to work on something. (or have a group of friends over to pretend you are working on friends car).

      Neurologic symptoms - Muscle Twitching and Hand Tremors

      By cristiana · Posted

      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.

      What should I do with these test results?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      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.
