I'm afraid you must gather your things and leave.

The Tribe has spoken. . . ... . ....

:lol:

My dad tells how his mother used to cook rabbits and chickens that she raised in her backyard. Used to butcher them herself--she died when I was 4, but she musta been a tough broad :P

This, um.... . . . . ..reminds me somewhat of MIL. Dunno if I have ever mentioned here how she was able to euthanize her beloved pet cat herself. Yes, she "put Ginger to sleep", by placing the old, arthritic cat in a plastic bag and tying it up. Apparently only took a minute.. . . . . . ... :huh:

:blink:

See, it woulda cost $170.00 to take Ginger in and have it done by the vet.. . ..can you imagine?? $170.00??! Abominable! Won't be paying for THAT... .. . . .....

Apparently I'm the cruel one in our house because one of the mice that I caught on a glue trap was soooooo stuck that we couldn't pry him off and let him go in the park (yeah, that actually worked once), So I filled up an old bucket with water and dropped the thing in-only lasted about 30 seconds. This, I have been chastized for. Husband, however, threw the last one away in the trash--still alive, still stuck to the board, to starve to death--and I'm the cruel one?! :blink:

Some guy came into our ER last night and lit himself on fire-in the waiting room! Luckily staff extinguished himself and they had to transport him out to another hospital with a burn unit, but good Gawd!!! Twas a suicide attempt, but I think that's the dumbest way to try to kill yerselph....More than likely you will survive and you'll be in horrid pain for the rest of yer life!

Everyone but Russell, close your eyes for this post.

The smell takes days to get out of the ER. (barf face)

I knew there was a reason the hospital taught us to put patients on fire out.

Did not see it. Coworker did. My office is right above the ER, I'll make a pass thru right now and come back to report any unusualalities ;)

Nothing! Lots of special fans filtering, absorbing and blowing. Smells really clean.

So, I know when your nose runs it's called 'rhinorrhea'. When your arse runs it's called 'diarrhea'. But what is it when your eyes run? My eyes have been pouring clear liquid from the outter corners all morning and it's driving me CRAZY!!!

Guess what I have now...

:rolleyes::unsure::angry::huh:;):PB):)<_<:ph34r::blink::lol:

I can't help feeling I murdered Bugs Bunny. Am I still allowed here?

I dunno.....our beloved Bunnie might have something to say about it. Would not be surprised if we got one of her infrequent poop-ins about now :unsure:

If he really wanted to kill himself, he picked the wrong place to do it :rolleyes:

Welcome Dixie!!! That's the first time I've ever seen one of us try to talk to the visitors and someone actually answers back! :P

I hope you all don't mind if I pop in from time to time.

Haven't had time to read this thread today. Filling out medical releases for my next test (they're scaring me), yelling at a company that took my money and hasn't shipped the overpriced product, and I'm cooking my husband rabbit stew (Is it What's Up Doc or Fatal Attraction)? He spent a great deal of his childhood in Spain and they caught, skinned and cooked rabbits. I bought one at the Farmer's Market yesterday and it looked like a roast. When I went to cut it, it was a whole skinned rabbit AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!! It does smell good. It's supposed to taste like chicken. He deserves a treat because he's been beyond supportive. I put in things that I can eat. I can't help feeling I murdered Bugs Bunny. Am I still allowed here?

My son would not be happy about the rabbit. We have three as pets. He won't even eat fish because he likes them.

Loey Rising Star

Oh yeah B)

Going back to the songs - How bout the Kinks song Lola L o l a Lola. I listen to the radio when I take a shower and it was on today. Now I can't get it out of my head. I was lucky enough to see the Kinks at the Starlight Ballroom one New Year's Eve (brain fog I think I already posted about it) and man were they amazing. One of the many songs they played was Lola.

With the name Lois I've been called LoLo, Lola, Loey (that one came from my hubby and has stuck for 22 years) and let's not forget all the people who spell my name Louis (and no I don't walk like a woman and talk like a man).

P.S. What does ph34r.gif mean?

Sorry :-( Does it help that she had already had it ready to sell? I just wanted to treat my hubby to something special.

Now that's scary. Glad you didn't see it. Could your runny eyes still have something to do with that even if the air smells clean?

Hey.. . . . . . ....is he single? Think he and my MIL might be a match made in heaven. . . . . ..

However, MIL swerves to avoid pedestrians and animals, and has been unsuccessful on occasion. At least it has never been while she was driving MY car. She has only smashed into the kids' bikes, our big lamp-post, DH's car and many snowbanks while in my vehicle... . . . . ..no people as yet, so I am considered pretty fortunate. :huh:<_<

P.S. What does ph34r.gif mean?

Low-ihss! That little emoticon signifies the desire to stand in front of a net and block pucks, as it looks very like my daughter's face when she stands in full helmeted and padded regalia, staring down the opposing forward as she comes screaming down the ice toward her.. . . .... . :rolleyes:

Actually, it really DOES look like her li'l face.. . . . . ....! :lol:

      @dlaino, Which symptoms are getting worse for you?   Which vitamins do you take?   Do you take Vitamin D?
    • knitty kitty
      Hello, @Lightingthunder2, I understand how confusing Celiac can be, especially when one develops other health problems. I developed Type Two Diabetes and was prescribed Metformin.  I started feeling weak and tired.  I searched for answers using my nutrition and microbiology education to find answers.   I learned that Metformin can cause Thiamin Vitamin B1 deficiency.  Metformin blocks the thiamin transporters that allow thiamin to enter cells.   Keep in mind that Celiac Disease causes poor absorption of all nutrients, vitamins and minerals that our bodies require daily to live.  Thiamin can be rapidly depleted because it cannot be stored for very long (3 - 21 days).  With Metformin blocking entry into cells and malabsorption from celiac disease, thiamine deficiency can set in quickly.  The early symptoms of thiamine insufficiency can be vague and easily be attributed to other things, like a bad day at work, and doctors can easily overlook the symptoms.  Doctors aren't well educated in nutritional deficiencies.  My doctors were clueless.   I took thiamin in the form Benfotiamine and followed the Autoimmune Paleo diet (developed by Dr. Sarah Ballentyne, a Celiac herself).  Benfotiamine has been shown to promote intestinal healing.  The Paleo diet cuts out most high carbohydrate foods.  This helps me keep my blood glucose levels under control without Metformin or other medications.  Now, I do add in occasionally rice or potatoes.  I avoid most gluten free processed foods since they are not enriched with vitamins like gluten containing products and are filled with saturated fats.  I do not take any pharmaceuticals for high blood glucose.  I control my type two diabetes with diet, and take Benfotiamine. Thiamine deficiency is found in both Type One and Type Two Diabetes.  Thiamin is not properly reabsorbed in the kidneys in both types.  Since thiamin is water soluble, it is lost easily in urine.  Type One Diabetes has a genetic component which involves thiamine transporters in cells not functioning properly due to faulty genetic information.  Type Two Diabetes may result as a consequence of thiamine insufficiency.  Ninety-eight percent of diabetics in both types are Thiamin deficient.   Discuss with your doctor and Nutrutionist any dietary changes and supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals while you are healing. Here are some articles I found helpful.  Thiamine and diabetes: back to the future? https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8505293/ The potential role of thiamine (vitamin B1) in diabetic complications https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18220605/ Thiamine Level in Type I and Type II Diabetes Mellitus Patients: A Comparative Study Focusing on Hematological and Biochemical Evaluations https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32528766/ Exploring the link between dietary thiamine and type 2 diabetes mellitus risk in US adults aged 45 years and older: Insights from a cross-sectional investigation https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39642136/ Metformin Is a Substrate and Inhibitor of the Human Thiamine Transporter, THTR-2 (SLC19A3) https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26528626/

      I'm not a gastro doctor, but it seems reasonable to conclude that they would be able to spot any cancer-related issues during the endoscopy, at least in the areas that were checked.
    • Matt13
      Sorry cut out. Scott! Thanks You are really the master of this things! Thanks! One more question please, i did 2 EGD. In first EGD there was taken 2 samples from duodenum where they found MARSH 3b. In second EGD after 1year (i described in first post of this topic) they have taken multiple Samples from duodenum and jejunum and everything is ok (other than some of the samples is not readable but the explanation is very small and short, villi form good samples is OK and  they only found inflammation in lamina propria. Sorry, I am little overwhelm by this and scared so dr.google almost every-time frightens me. Would my GI and histology expert doctor see if there were like something serious like small bowel cancer or neoplasms(especially in histology)?
