I'm sure I got stuff he can fix. Bring him when you come to get yer NikWax.

Turns out my baby was just goofing with his bro's welding mask. Baby M was building wood & metal shelves. Big bro J will weld the parts that need it. Love it when they learn practical skills.

Sometimes they just need to realize what they could lose. :P

Since both BE and I commute, the only time we could really go out is Saturday. Fridays he's not home until 8:30, which is late for me. I suppose dinner in Seattle would work, but he'd still have to drop me off at home, and then leave..... :ph34r::P :P Dunno. Have to think about this. Once the weather improves we can do weekend hikes n' stuff. Not such a fun prospect this time of year though.

I was the one who had crazy hours in the TV business. I would go to Clark's house on a Thursday night after work and go grocery shopping. Then quietly (most nights) crawl into bed. He'd be at work Friday but I saw him Friday night (either I would have cooked or we'd go out - believe me I saw early on that cooking wasn't his forte). Then I had to go to work on Saturday. He'd visit me during the week when he could but since I didn't get home until midnight or later (sometimes 2 or 3) it was an interesting courtship to say the least. It stood the test of time (together 22 years and married 19). It was well worth it for me to work around our schedules and eventually when we had Tony I took an early severance package and got to stay home. You have to decide if it's worth it. I wouldn't trade Clark for the world although we'd both like to throttle each other at times (by now we know all the buttons t push). BE sound very special but we also know what a treasure you are so if you decide to take the hassle of his schedule it's his good fortune!!!!

P.S. Just read that you wanted the break. Again, you are an awesome lady and BE would be lucky to have you as his lady!!!!!!!!! And good sex is a good thing. Believe me after 22 years one of us always seems to be asleep - which I will rectify (tee-hee)

Well, I'm done work for the year. ;)

As some of you know, I have two computers, both of which are several years old.

The tower PC in my home office is six years old, and has been struggling with memory problems. I upgraded the memory today from 256 Mb to 1.2 Gb. It now outperforms my notebook, but is not portable.

Do you have any idea how big the dust bunnies get inside a CPU that has not been opened in six years? :ph34r:

I should have done it long ago. It has been suffering from memory deficiency for a long time. A gigabyte of additional memory cost me 54 bucks. :)

Going up to visit Jacquie's family tomorrow. Then a quiet evening at home.

Happy New Year to all my treasured psilly phriends.

Peter, I'll buy the part and pay you $ 54 to clean the dust bunnies out of my memory and install a new faster brain in my head.

Happy New Year, other side of the world!

On my side of the world, we are trying to get in all the weather types possible before midnight. Warm (60F), tornados, thunderstorms, heavy winds and ice turning to a little snow. My neighborhood is in the icy stage moving towards the snow stage.

      Thank you for your response. It has some good information for me to investigate further. In answer to your question about Vit D, yes, and it was normal. I am having the B12 level done today. Additionally, I am going to have a urine to test for iodine, after a correlation with it to dermatitis herpetiformis was mentioned in another post. I had read that in my research as well. I am praying that I don’t have that! The dietary restrictions, esp when combined with eating gluten free are horrendous! Talk about malnutrition! Anyway, one step, one day at a time. I’m trying not to get ahead of myself. Not easy.

      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.
