There's a link to a Youtube video of a Free Hugs guy. I'm not sure how true the synopsis with it is, but the viz is interesting.

I get the best hugs at home. My older (Olivia almost 5) daughter ALWAYS gives me a "good morning hug" and scratches my back as soon as she rolls out of bed. Is there a better way to start the day? :)

Wonderful weekend hugs to ALL.

I must go collect my kids (and REAL squeezy hugs :D )

Happy Weekending to everybody!

Does this equate to getting a lump of (char)coal from Santa? :o

This could be a great survival tool too. Say you get lost in the woods and all the wood around is saking wet - Just wip out your activated charcoal thong and light it up!

Thank God I'm not a client of that massage therapist :ph34r::blink::o

My friend who claims her butt is a low-rider (she's never worn pants in her life due to this, so I don't really know) will really enjoy that butt-bra thing. :lol:

Susan and Richard,

I saw a similar advertisement in a magazine at the Gastro's office. The ones in there were more like a boxer short, with a "secret panel". :P

That poor commercial guy :lol: The people on the panel were looking at him like he was nuts. Obviously, not one of them was a Celiac <_<

Can't believe there's a board devoted to this--gotta love "Chicks who fart, and the men who love them" :lol::lol::o

:lol: How have we not know about these de-odorizing flatus devices all these years :lol::lol::lol:

I know--really! The day I saw the ad, was the day of my colo/endo. I was waiting, nervous, and saw the ad. I showed it to my husband and we both got a chuckle out of it. I couldn't believe they actually made anything like that. :o

      Celiac related issues

      Diabetes type 1 or type 2? Type 2 diabetes has a statistical correlation with celiac disease.  The B vitamins work in synergy with one another so I still would recommend a B-complex. This may also help your anemia which is evident from your low ferritin, hematocrit and hemoglobin.  Your "chest pain arm pain and burning with increased weakness in my legs" would seem to correspond to the areas of your spine where you have had surgeries. My observation is that spinal surgeries seldom prove to be successful in the long term as they don't address underlying degenerative problems.  I will attach embed an article which may be helpful to you in eliminating gluten from your life. There is usually a real learning curve involved in achieving gluten free eating habits on a consistent basis as gluten is hidden in so many food products where you would never expect to find it and can be masked by terminology such "food starch". Eating out is the number one way to sabotage your efforts to eat gluten free as even when you order things that are naturally gluten free they often become cross contaminated with wheat back in the kitchen by being prepared and handled along with wheat containing foods. Another factoid that you need to be aware of is that for mature adults, it typically takes 2-3 years after achieving a consistently gluten free diet for the mucosa of the small bowel to experience complete healing. However, considerable improvement in symptoms usually occurs in a matter or weeks or months.

I have had 2 lumbar disc surgeries and 2 cervical spine surgeries

      Welcome to the forum @Tarp! Some more information would be helpful. What is your age? What led you to investigate celiac diagnosis 11 years ago? What were your symptoms then? Do you have osteoporosis/osteopenia? What areas of the spine have been involved with your four surgeries?  As you probably know, celiac disease damages the lining of the small bowel which typically results in malabsorption of vitamins and minerals. This, in turn, can result in bone demineralization and as well as neurological disorders. Because of your spinal surgeries, it might be difficult to sort out what is causing what. Are there nutrient deficiency related neurological problems going on? Are there nerve impingement problems going on from the surgeries? Both? Having said that, it's a pretty safe bet that you would do well to invest in some high potency vitamin and mineral supplementation to address the malabsorption problem. We routinely recommend a high potency B-complex, magnesium glycinate or magnesium citrate (not magnesium oxide), D3 (5000 IU daily) and zinc. Most of these in this list are vital to neurological health. Make sure all are gluten free. Costco's Nature Made and Kirkland Signature products are a good choice and reasonably priced.
