got another idea for a halloween costume--Lindsay Lohan--so I'd do a dirty red wig, prison jumper pulled tight on the top with some cleav and black bra and fancy belt, rolled up on the bottom with the ankle monitor and some fancy pumps, a syringe taped to my arm and a baggie of cornstarch for the coke....

Overdone??

Today normality officially returned to the shaky isles :rolleyes: The godwits, knowing nothing of earthquakes in the lower hemisphere, officially returned to Christchurch, and church bells pealed across Cathedral Square in the heart of the city to celebrate their annual return after a nine-day, 11,000 km (no, sorry, I don't do conversions, just live with two systems) migration from Alaska, to the common estuary of our two rivers for their summer feeding grounds. :D Remarkable birds, those godwits - sure glad our Boeing 777-200ER jet doesn't take that long. Can you imagine nine days wifout food, or taking along gluten free food for the ride??? :unsure:

DH and I have gone as famous, easily-recognised couples to Hallowe'en parties, and the real reason that we were so incredibly phunny and memorable was because I went as the male figure and hub went as the woman. This you should do, Rah-shyelle... . . ....you're the cop, he's Lindsay. Yer peeps will be talking about it fer years. . .....

:lol:

Shrooomie! The godwits.. . . . ....have never heard of these creatures. Must look them up. Gads, they must be wasted, skinny little things...nine days?? :blink:

Rachelle, love the Lindsey idea with one of you as a cop or guard.

Shroomies bird's must be thinking, " What the French toast happened here? We leave the humans in charge for a few months and they trash the place!"

Just looked the birds up. J is impressed with the athletic ability. I like the long beaks.

Well... . . ...here is some certain comedic fodder. In their description of the black-tailed godwit, Wiki states that "The winter plumages are fairly drab, but three species have reddish underparts when breeding."

Omg. . . . ... . .:unsure:... . . . .their areas turn RED whilst breeding? Whot in hell?.. . . .....Trying to come up with a pragmatic, evolutionary reason for this to happen. Plumage, size and coloUr changes are said to occur to ensure the procreation of species by attracting the opposite sex.

Hmm. I should think that red would suggest a big stop sign for me. .. ....

Canna imagine being attracted to.. . . ..something suddenly red.

However, I am not a godwit... . . .. ....

:rolleyes:

Just went to the "Gluten Free Gala" at HyVee grocery. For some reason there was a huge array of sweets to sample but nothing else. I did my best to sample them all! Some were extremely delicious!

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Actually, I think it was Mother Nature what did the trashing. The humans did the befouling of the estuary :o, since the sewerage system isn't fully restored and some of it is still escaping into the rivers:unsure: Hope the godwits stay safe.

Curly Lisa, you could go as a character from Shrek. They are sort of twisted versions of fairy tale characters.

The background characters? Wicked witches parents? They must have been some mean, twisted people. The police looking for Snow White when she disappeared into the woods? Did they put out an Amber Alert ?

People!!! What am I doing here??!!?? We're camping this weekend and I have not even STARTED getting ready!!! Gah!!!! OK, so maybe it's one of those unconscious subconscious things of not really wanting to go. Uggghhhh!!! So much work for so little time actually on location.

You're camping THIS weekend???? HERE?????? :o

It is waaay too cold at night, as far as I'm concerned.

Didja get rained out yet?

My favorite Halloween costume was when my friend dressed in ragged, dirty clothes, gave himself a makeup black eye, and his shirt read, "The Economy." One year I was Strawberry Shortcake, one year my husband and I went as Johnny Cash and June Carter...You could be a couple of the kids from Twilight...

      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.
