How are you today?

A little better today. Hubby got home early, and I slept from like 4:30 till midnight. Then got up with Ez, who is throwing up mucous again. :( Gonna take him back to the doc again today. Then I went back to sleep at about 3, and got a couple more hours before having to get Luke ready for school. So all that sleep helped!

Is Scott Irish?

Patti - I agree with the George/Izzy scenario - perhaps the writer's listened to public opinion and decided it was best to keep them as friends!

I actually think the Celiac-green is kind of spiffy, but I am also having trouble with the change. Things aren't where I expect them to be, and it makes my eyes cross!

Speaking of Celiac-green, we reeeeally need to band together and organize something in the way of Celiac awareness. You know, all those basics that all the OTHER diseases have. Little rubber bracelets, car magnets in the shape of a ribbon, bumper stickers, ribbons, t-shirts, all that stuff.

In fact, we should get Scott to make a new forum for Activism, too.

Our thread is hopping this morning, I logged in at 8- then I gabbed with my coworkers since we all get in at 8, we went downstairs for dirnks and water, it is now 8:30 and I missed quite a few posts. Wow!

Patti- how are the closets today?

Yep--sleep sure helps! Glad you got some shut-eye last night :D

Poor Ez :( Good luck at the doc today.

They're coming to install everything on Dec 3rd. I think it's really gonna be nice--nothing fancy--just lots of shelving and hanging ability.

Julie knew about the greenness because Julie was on last night when the color change took place! And form that point on, things would never be the same.......

Julie does not like change either :(

It was so pretty driving to work yesterday. All the leaves were falling and I live in a country-like setting so it was so pretty.

Good Morning all. The dealie in my avatar is how to do an array (look at all the genes you are using all on one piece of glass). I've been so busy planning and executing a bunch of experiments that it didn't hit me until yesterday that I have to do 700 of those.

700

It's inconceivable at the moment.

My friend went to Kenya to work in an HIV lab. She'll be there for two years at least and if they like it they'll stay longer. What a fabulous experience for the kids. As one of them said "Dad, we ARE the Discovery channel!"

My brain is unbelievably toasted. The lab had a gluten free bday celebration for me yesterday and I ate more dairy and grains and whatever than I have in a very long time. No sleep. Entire body feels swollen. And I have to prepare an intelligent report for someone. Thank heavens there's no math today.

Or quinoa stuffing.

Where is that danged yeti when I need him?

Ah,....he's over at mine....sharing slow cooker tips and recipes (hubby bought one half price - what a coup!)

We (hubby, me, yeti) are just going through the info booklet now.

Good luck with the 700 gene thingy..wotsits :blink:

Bah to the 'new look' forum!!

Av captions don't even come up on the same SCREEN as the av now for me!!

Speaking of Celiac-green, we reeeeally need to band together and organize something in the way of Celiac awareness. You know, all those basics that all the OTHER diseases have. Little rubber bracelets, car magnets in the shape of a ribbon, bumper stickers, ribbons, t-shirts, all that stuff.

Awesome idea!!

But I have too little faith in being able to edumacate the public when MDs are still so clueless.

This one, near honeymoon-land btw, seems to think it's only a "disorder of malabsorption".

<tom's quite sure his problems went a tad beyond that>

"Dad, we ARE the Discovery channel!"

:lol::) Isn't it impossible to picture this and NOT smile and/or chuckle?? :)

P.S.

Man, do I hate this new look. Difficult to decipher when one person's post ends and the next guy's begins...our av captions are no longer under the av...

Scott, why did ye do this? He's probably Scottish.....I would prefer the Adams tartan than this! :blink:

I still think it was our constant green subject matter... :lol:

If it has to be green, fine, but WHY IS THE FONT so small

I just came in from lunch and I saw snowflakes.....tiny ones but snowflakes to say the least.

I said I wanted a GREEN EMOTICON GUY . . . not everything green but an emoticon guy!!!

Don't like the layout - captions NEED to be under the av. The print seems to be less black . . . is that a figment of my imagination? Is that just because of all the green background? ('Cause my eyes do look blue-er when I'm wearing blue.)

Not a decent vegetable or fruit in the house - must go do some produce shopping - and it won't be green!!

Wow--it's very windy here, and cold, but no snow yet. The sky is getting dark, though, so maybe....

      @sillyyak52, If it makes you feel any better, I have a sibling who thinks the dinner table (at fine dining restaurants, and less formal pub grub settings etc.) is a personal buffet table and dips into the food of whoever is sitting beside or opposite to them just to get a taste (no plate is safe!) ... never asks for permission ... and has no consideration of gluten cross contamination even though I've explained it diplomatically with articles, pictures of dermatitis herpetiformis (which I've had for years) like @knitty kitty and I both suggest you do. I avoid that sibling at restaurants now and sit at the opposite end of the table out of arms reach! I've had similar treatment at a recent siblings 60th BBQ with family and friends (brought my own food and burger), where I was told (in a very rude manner) "tough luck, there's nowhere safe ... just cook your burger on the BBQ" which was cross contaminated ... I stood my ground and asked for a clean frying pan to cook my burger safely and separately.

      Can food allergies like milk and soy flatten villi?

      Dangerously underweight, Perfect gluten free and insomnia

      knitty kitty makes a good point. Avocados are high in histamines. So are bananas. Both also trigger histamine production in the body when consumed so there's a double whammy with those two foods for those struggling with histamine intolerance/MCAS

      3 years with Celiac, now I appear fine.

      @Sharke, The updated guidelines for a gluten challenge are to eat ten grams of gluten per day for two weeks minimum.  Lesser amounts of gluten (3 grams) don't provoke an immune response strong enough that the antibodies leave the gastrointestinal tract and get into the blood where they can be measured in tTg blood tests.   Have no doubt that the antibodies made in the small intestine are doing damage there, even if you don't suffer severe symptoms, yet. Did you react to barley prior to going gluten free? Have you been checked for chronic autoimmune gastritis which is another autoimmune disease that sometimes occurs with Celiac Disease? Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Thiamine deficiency (Gastrointestinal Beriberi) can cause constipation and/or diarrhea, abdominal pain, and weight loss.   Thiamine Deficiency Disorders https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8451766/

      @sillyyak52, Count another one in the same boat!  My family has always been in denial.  They said my tummy aches were a ploy to miss school.  My parents passed from health problems associated with uncontrolled Celiac Disease (Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm and Glioblastoma brain tumor).  My sister still has her head buried in the sand.   I agree with @Rogol72, try the consequences of untreated celiac disease shock treatment.  Sometimes people are just scared of having to change their comfortable lifestyle.
