I've been away for a couple of days, and have only skimmed quickly through 48 hours worth of silly posts. Merry Christmas to all. For me, it's "Good night!" :P

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

Night Peter, maybe you were good this year and Santa will bring you something under the tree....maybe some gluten-free goodies?

DingoGirl Enthusiast

:o:blink::angry:

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you guys will not be-LIEVE what just happened!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:angry:

Twenty minutes ago, I let the demon dog next door out into his back yard. So, I can hear him barking CONSTANTLY with that wretched, shrill bark of his (BTW his Stepford owner had the surgery to slash his vocal chords :o - an evil thing all in itself - to make him barkless, and it most CERTAINLY did not work - even remotely).

So, I went over to put him in his kennel......and he would not come in (highly unusual). I called for him.......still would not come. So, I went into the back yard to find him - he is wildly running to and fro, chasing something in this particular area of the garden. He will NOT come to me. So, I stepped over this barrier in the garden, trying to grab him adn pull him over........and I FELL - - over this little fence - - and knocked something over - god knows what - and FELL INTO A BUSH - tangling my hair and my fleece into these thorny roses, and HIT MY HEAD on the fencepost - - which has made me slightly concussed (I actually saw stars) and has given me an INSTANT and WRETCHED headache!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :angry:

I HATE THAT DOG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And let me tell you.......I have hardly EVER encountered a dog I do not like, maybe NEVER.

so.......I have pulled the leaves and thorns out of my hair and am off to bed...........slight concussion......SEVERE headache..........

carry on sillies..........

BAH!!!!!!!!!!!

:angry:

back to Christmas cheer......I"ll have it tomorrow............

nikki-uk Enthusiast

Well, the presents have all been opened (it's all over in a flash) - the Turkey's stuffed AND in the oven - kids all gone off - kitty Will having the time of his life !!! :lol:

(BTW his Stepford owner had the surgery to slash his vocal chords :o - an evil thing all in itself - to make him barkless, and it most CERTAINLY did not work - even remotely).

:o Vets actually perform this op?? :o

*snort*...shouldn't laugh.....But mental image is too much.. :lol: ....also the dragged through the hedge backwards look is very 'in' and the concussion saves on wine needing to be consumed with same effect!! ;)

Evil yappy dog needs to GO!!! :lol: (poor Stinker)

:lol: I was rather hoping that santa would bring me some new slippers as mine are falling apart with the sole 'flapping' :lol: (death trap) but alas.....so I am wearing my son's instead!! :D

'Gone with the wind' is on soon - must settle down with chocs.......for breakfast :blink:

MERRY CHRISTMAS SILLIES!!!!

Susie...hows your head this morning?

Mtndog Collaborator

Sleeps through Christmas pooping in here.

Susie- OW!!!!!!!! Don't you know if you have a concussion, you arre NOT supposed to go to sleep! Poor dog- vocal chord surgery is EVIL. Mean Stepfords!

Just wanted to poop in, say Merry Christmas and tell you that yes, Kurt gave me a copy of......

<_<:o:angry:

only in America........completely HEINOUS.....

Yes.......dragged through a hedge backwards indeed! :lol: I gently pulled the wee hedgehogs out of my hair last night, and all is well. Inspection this morning of Stepford's back yard revealed that I fell onto a branch of her standing rose bush, and that branch is wrenched off, hanging to the ground - :huh: - hence all the hoglets/thorns in my hair. I knocked over a garden statue. Now debating whether I cut the hanging branch off and say nothing......or......just leave it and tell her of my mishap.

(I think I'll leave it and write her a note, perhaps wages will increase for hardship pay :lol: )

:D

I've had the caramels again for breakfast just now. :huh: Thank God, they're almost gone. Hopefully Amanda's chocolate gummy's are also? :lol:

Morning Sillies

Morning Amanda--

Nope--I'm staying in...I think I might be getting a cold. Not sure, but woke up with a slightly scratchy throat.

Are you at work?

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

I'm at work. The hospital is quiet, well on the office side of it anyway. A lot of offices are closed yet. There are only 5 of us in mine today.

John has been talking about having a sore throat the last two days.

jerseyangel Proficient

Glad it should be a quiet day for you--where my son works, he is in a team of 6 normally and today there will only be 2 of them. I guess it's a popular day to take off.

Hope John isn't getting sick again.

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

My sister told me she was going to return something to Wally-World this morning since it didn't work...I told her she was crazy!

      My gastroenterologist had me incorporate VSL#3 to help with similar issues. It can take a long time to heal. I also found adding kiwi to my diet was soothing to my stomach. For me, it was important to avoid other inflammatory foods. Dairy, corn, etc, were aggravating to my stomach. Bone broth has been another life saver for me over the years. I do know I continue to be sensitive. If I were to have dairy for two days in a row it would be like adding a log to a fire to my sensitive system. I do also have issues with acid reflux though. (Barrett's esophagus) I also stay up after eating. They say to for 3 hours but even 2 is helpful. Keep us posted on how you are. Hope you get some relief soon.

      It’s not uncommon for people with celiac disease, especially those undiagnosed for a long time, to experience lasting digestive issues even after going gluten-free. The damage caused by years of inflammation in the small intestine can sometimes lead to other conditions like delayed gastric emptying (gastroparesis), acid reflux, or food intolerances. Staying upright after eating can help with digestion, particularly if reflux is an issue, as lying down can exacerbate symptoms. Greasy or fatty foods can be harder to digest, especially if your digestive system is still healing or if you’ve developed sensitivities. It’s important to discuss these ongoing symptoms with a gastroenterologist, as there might be additional treatments or dietary adjustments that could help. You’re definitely not alone in feeling like your stomach needs extra care, and hearing others’ experiences can be validating. One thing you should do is look at your diet again, and be sure that it is 100% gluten-free. Choline is a supplement that may help you with your symptoms, so consider this as well. 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.

      Multiple times. Have had several emptying studies and endos that come back normal.
    • trents
      Welcome to the forum, @RobHicks! Actually, celiac disease damages the upper part of the small bowel rather than the stomach. It's the part of the intestine right below the stomach. Since being diagnosed, have you had a follow-up endoscopy with biopsy to check to see if there is good healing in the small bowel lining since beginning the gluten free journey? You may have something else going on besides celiac disease. From what you describe, it sounds like your stomach is not emptying properly. Have you presented this problem to a GI doc?

      Still waiting.  The Barrett's I've had for 5-6 years. The possible/probable Celiac is new this year.  Not sure why that's popped up, but there it is.
