Clark and Tony are pampering me. Now I need to find out who stole my real son. laugh.gif. I had him open one present tonight (we celebrate Chranukah & I also need the box to wrap another present). He's into wearing sports jackets and ties and fedoras so I got him a Scarface tie. He really seemed to get a kick out of it. He seems much more comfortable in his skin than we've ever seen him - not to say he wasn't self confident. College and having to be independent from us was a BIG thing but now it's coming together.

Love,

Loey

P.S. Rach - you're my hero. You have so much on your plate and juggle it with grace. Just remember on the day you think you might drop something let us help you. Send an SOS because we're all here to catch you.

Hey guys, we're fine :)B) All shook up again, but what else is new. At least the stuph didn't all fall out of my pantry :lol: All the tiles are still on the roof (I think :blink: ) and I poured myself a glass of whine even though it's only 2:30 p.m. I think Miss Em, my kitty, would like some too. Apparently there were a few panicked shoppers in the malls - I pledged not to go there this Christmas, and haven't :unsure:

So they say good news travels fast - sheesh, so does bad!! Twenty minutes and Lisa is on it :blink:

:lol:

I think that most things that were going to get broken have already been broken most places, so hope that the rest of the city is okay. This one was about 10 kns out to sea or it would have been worse - all that nice heavy salt water seems to muffle it a little. :D

Anyways, just checkin' in. :) Off for another glass of wine.

Perhaps you aren't meant to cook tonight? Maybe just some snacks and another glass of wine? Perhaps a little tuna marinated in wine for the kitty?

I don't know if I can find the kitty. She was really cool with the first, but now... she has disappeared. And I am already on my third glass of wine. I will be typing like Jyess soon. :D

Shroomie- we're all praying for your safety. Drink away and have a glass for me. I'm not allowed to drink anymore but my best friend from college is trying to send me MJ. I have my approval to get the ID card for MJ but they don't have any Compassion Centers open yet.

All My Love,

Loey

Maybe a little scary, more just rediculous drama. I'm in between patients right now so I'll do it right now. Give me at least a 1/2 hour. It's a loooooooong story!!

Gaaaaahhhhhhh... . . SO much to do today, but I'll be checking my email RELIGIOUSLY through the next couple of hours.. . ...thank gawd for my ipod, which will let me check these things whilst I stand at the bank, struggle through the liquor store, walk with the dogs. .. . . ....

Shrooooomie, I checked on here this morning to see if you'd posted, and got the good news. Then, I could carry on with my morning. :rolleyes::D Woulda had my ipod on the treadmill as well, methinks. . .. . ...

Um. . . . .. .. . ..there have been large earth tremors on the other side of the world, which we are ALL abreast of and checking in here to ensure that Shroooomie's okay. However, there is an equally terrifying thing happening on THIS side of the earth, and NONE of you Psills have been asking if I am all right.

It's okay..... . .I realize how busy everyone is, and my welfare cannot be foremost on everybody's mind.

Remember, now.....it's Christmas time.

MIL has landed.

Why do you let her use your car? Aren't the keys lost? Maybe a hose or the battery cables have come loose?

Seriously, here in Kansas, you can anonymously report an older person's driving. They will be called in for a driving test. Can you do that there?

She lives up in the Yukon, so that territory can deal with her driving infractions. One should think that the Alaska Highway would be the safest thoroughfare to place a hapless driver -- long stretches of straight, flat road, reasonable speed limit -- she has, however, managed to take out guard rails and First Nations elders portaging along the shoulder.. . . . ..

She rarely takes either of our cars out, now........and the kids wear full hockey gear when they do head out with her.

:huh:

:lol:

      Testing positive for antibodies, are there visible changes to the colon that could be seen without a biopsy?

      By cameo674 · Posted

      Does it taste like black licorice?  It said it was chewable.  I do not like that flavor.     Since the burn at the back of my throat is there everyday, I usually only take something when it is unbearable and keeping me from ADL especially sleep.

      Nandos improper preparion celiac childrens food

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your concerns about Nando's cross-contamination practices are valid and important for the celiac community. It's disappointing that Nando's does not have stricter protocols for children's portions, especially given the risk of cross-contact with gluten-containing items like garlic bread. Cooking gluten-free items on shared surfaces, even if cleaned, is not safe for individuals with celiac disease, as even trace amounts of gluten can cause harm. While the adult butterfly chicken may be a safer option, the inconsistency in practices for children's meals is concerning. It's frustrating that Nando's headquarters did not take responsibility, but sharing your experience raises awareness and may encourage them to improve their protocols. Consider reaching out to celiac advocacy organizations to amplify your concerns and push for better standards. Always double-check with staff and emphasize the importance of avoiding cross-contamination when dining out.

      Mucus discharge

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I had this symptom when I was diagnosed. Are you sure that your diet is 100% gluten-free?  Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      Confused with test results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Based on your results, it seems unlikely that you have celiac disease. A negative endoscopy and the absence of HLA-DQ2/DQ8 genes (the primary genetic markers for celiac) strongly suggest you do not have the condition. However, the elevated TTG-IgA (22) could indicate a temporary immune response or another issue, such as a different autoimmune disorder, intestinal infection, or even a lab anomaly. The presence of DQA1*05 alone is not diagnostic for celiac. Meeting with an allergist and GI specialist is a good next step to explore other potential causes for the high antibodies, such as non-celiac gluten sensitivity or other immune-related conditions. Keep a detailed food and symptom diary to help guide further testing and discussions with your doctors. Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      Confused with test results

      By Captain173 · Posted

      I had celiac panel done back in October, only ttg iga came back high  (22 with positive being over 3). Endoscopy done in January, it was  negative. Genetic test done after endoscopy, negative for both hla dq2 & dq8. Did show positive for dqa1*05.  Scheduled to meet with an allergist next week. Not scheduled to meet with GI specialist till after allergist. Confused if I have celiac or what caused high the antibodies originally if I do not.
