......I guess you could say I was suffering from a mild brain fart on that one :lol:

Well, that just begs the question . . . Do brain pharts count in your phart totals?

And BTW Peter, I forgot to say Thanks for the welcome back! :D And how did you know I live in Surry County!? :o:ph34r::blink: You just blew my mind. :lol:

I noticed that, too--now that you mention it....

Ok Peter, in which county do I live? Betcha can't answer that one :D

Alex- I did not have a big wedding. If you want any pointers feel free to ask. Oriental Trading and Ebay are great places to find things. I did a beach theme. If you want I can show you some of our pics. Just PM me if you need anything.

Thanks so much, I'm sure I will have some questions in the coming months! I think of something new to think/worry about almost every hour.

Ryan and I were having fun brainstorming wedding song ideas last night. For some reason we both thought of Into the Mystic by Van Morrison. We might change our minds but I'm happy we were able to have a least one answer to the many things we'll have to figure out.

We're babysitting Ryan's niece and nephew tonight. They're 2 and 4. So much fun!!! The two year old calls me "Auntie X" :wub::lol:

O.K. people...here goes...

PHART>>>>>>>> who did that? Wasn't me. A lifetime of digestive problems makes it easy to look so innocent, yet be quite pleased at leaving everything in the Produce Dept. at Kroger wilted and dead. :ph34r: On one occasion, I accidently hit the Produce man, poor guy...he never saw it comin'...just an innocent victim in my line of fire. I just looked at him and said, "Pew, some people are so rude! if people eat beans, they should take Beano before coming out in public."

Emily, I am terrified (they told me to be) :unsure:

Yes, I am the loser of cookbooks. (Do I get a crown?) :D

Smurf theme: La la la la la la la la la la la....dum dum dum dum dum dum dum (Gargamel and of course, his cat, Asrielle). Papa smurf and girl smurf had like, 1 thousand smurflings.

Smurf=procreates like a rat.

So, am I in?

Oh my God- 2 pages until we crown someone (better than bopping them over the head with a sheaf of wheat, methinks!).

Julie- Just ordered a yeti statue for my garden- maybe he could be like that gnome that someone kidnapped and photographed traveling the world! We should all pitch in and buy it for Judy! Shje's the garden queen!!

And the eighth and final rule, if this is your first night at (pillow)Fight Club, you have to (pillow) fight.

Janet- :lol: :lol: :lol:

I may have to cheat and get on that EM thread- want to look fabulous!

Yes, very educational, informative, beneficial for the greater good of gluten-free-ness no doubt.

That's how they ALWAYS start!!!!!!!

OMG- the parting by farting story- Judge Turd is more like it!!!!!!!!!!

Niiki's posting of the Thriller on the tube video inspired me to do the dance for Angus. Let's just say he did NOT like it :lol: :lol:

OMGawd....that IS brilliant!!! She should SO do it :lol:

It'd serve him right--the overblown gasbag :P

OMG- look what tis thread has done to patti- overblown gas bag- 300 calories (100 because it's funny and 200 because it's twice as funny coming from our "angel" :lol:

Jess- Nice one! I also think that Morrissey's "Girlfriend in a Coma" would make a great wedding song :P

If you receive an email entitled 'Bedtimes' Delete it IMMEDIATELY. Do not open it. Apparently this one is pretty nasty. It will not only erase everything on your hard drive, but it will also delete anything on disks within 20 feet of your computer. It demagnetizes the stripes on ALL of your credit cards. It reprograms your ATM access code, screws up the tracking on your VCR, and uses subspace field harmonics to scratch any celiac disease's you attempt to play. It will program your phone auto dial to call only 0898 numbers. This virus will mix antifreeze into your fish tank. IT WILL CAUSE YOUR TOILET TO FLUSH WHILE YOU ARE SHOWERING.

It will drink ALL your beer.

FOR GOD'S SAKE, ARE YOU LISTENING? ? It will leave dirty underwear on the coffee table when you are expecting company.

It will replace your shampoo with Nair and your Nair with Rogaine. If the 'Bedtimes' message opened in a Windows 95/98 environment, it will leave the toilet seat up and leave your hair dryer plugged in dangerously close to a full bathtub. It will not only remove the forbidden tags from your mattresses and pillows, it will also refill your skim milk with whole milk.

***WARN AS MANY PEOPLE AS YOU CAN. *** And if you don't send this to 5000 people in 20 seconds, you'll fart so hard that your right leg will spasm and shoot straight out in front of you, sending sparks that will ignite the person nearest you. Send this warning to everyone!!!

THERE'S A LOT OF SADNESS IN THE WORLD!

Well?! Update, Amanda!!

Is it just me, or is the word "fart" 10 times funnier when it's spelled "phart?!" Phart is airier than fart. That's what it is.

It becomes a hysterical word, from a mere amusing one....

Much like the phartlek, a form of interval training for elite runners. How can such a gut-wrenchingly serious activity have such a funny little name?! :lol:

I noticed that, too--now that you mention it....

Ok Peter, in which county do I live? Betcha can't answer that one :D

I've got something to tell you guys...

Peter and I, many years ago, lived six streets away from each other. Wait...1960, you said, Peter? Ha! Way, way before my time.... :D:rolleyes:

You assaulted a produce boy with a phart, and told a story about it-- you are soooo in! :lol:

Yep, Julie's got her entrance pass. The first document you'll need is a certified copy of the Phart Chart.

So . . ... Sarah .. . . .. I like maps. I keep them w/in reach of the recliner.

As I'm looking for Mayberry's neighboUr & environs, I bump into a town's name that's still cracking me up. I've looked closer so I know I missed a letter at first.

Partly due to the Yadkin to the west, I read the name as Pffftown :D:lol:

Terrifying Breaking News

tonight my neighbors and I had a little gathering in my living room, to talk about our situation with those kids. My disabled neighbor told us something scary...the other night the kids were standing on their front porch and her kitchen window sits off this stoop. It was 2am. So all the lights were off. She had heard voices so she crept into the kitchen and listened....what they talked about scared her. They were talking about firebombing cars, beating someone up, killing people, blaming their crimes on others, having aylabis (spelling?) She couldnt call anyone since she didnt have a phone. They only have a cell phone in her apartment and her daugther was working late and had it....

We are dealing with much worse than we first thought.

:lol: Utterly amazing and impressive that you remembered that two-sentence post from September! Indeed, I live about 15 minutes from Mt. Airy, the real-life Mayberry. I've never been a big fan, :ph34r: but I do like the town. Fun little places to eat, tons of antique shops, etc. Next time I go, I'll take a few pics of the most popular Andy Griffith places, like Floyd's Barber Shop, and the old Sheriff's car and stuff, and put em up as my avatar.

And if you don't send this to 5000 people in 20 seconds, you'll fart so hard that your right leg will spasm and shoot straight out in front of you, sending sparks that will ignite the person nearest you.

Ah, that would be Pfafftown (pronounced Pahf-town), which was made famous (not really) by the critically acclaimed independent movie, Junebug. As matter of fact, there is a short shot near the end of that movie when the 2 main characters are driving down the highway, and you can actually see my mountain, Pilot Mountain itself, out the windshield! Most of that movie was filmed all around us. And THAT is my only claim to fame. :lol: (Unless Nascar connections count. Everybody in NC has those. :rolleyes: )

My thoughts are with you and John tonight, and I hope that this gets resolved without anyone getting hurt. Property damage is bad enough. :wub:

      Welcome to the forum, @Cathijean90! I went 13 years from the first laboratory evidence of celiac disease onset before I was diagnosed. But there were symptoms of celiac disease many years before that like a lot of gas. The first laboratory evidence was a rejected Red Cross blood donation because of elevated liver enzymes. They assume you have hepatitis if your liver enzymes are elevated. But I was checked for all varieties of hepatitis and that wasn't it. Liver enzymes continued to slowly creep up for another 13 years and my PCP tested me for a lot of stuff and it was all negative. He ran out of ideas. By that time, iron stores were dropping as was albumin and total protein. Finally, I took it upon myself to schedule an appointment with a GI doc and the first thing he did was test me for celiac disease. I was positive of course. After three months of gluten free eating the liver enzymes were back in normal range. That was back in about 1992. Your story and mine are more typical than not. I think the average time to diagnosis from the onset of symptoms and initial investigation into causes for symptom is about 10 years. Things are improving as there is more general awareness in the medical community about celiac disease than there used to be years ago. The risk of small bowel lymphoma in the celiac population is 4x that of the general population. That's the bad news is.  The good news is, it's still pretty rare as a whole. Yes, absolutely! You can expect substantial healing even after all these years if you begin to observe a strict gluten free diet. Take heart! But I have one question. What exactly did the paperwork from 15 years ago say about your having celiac disease? Was it a test result? Was it an official diagnosis? Can you share the specifics please? If you have any celiac blood antibody test results could you post them, along with the reference ranges for each test? Did you have an endoscopy/biopsy to confirm the blood test results?
    • Cathijean90
      I’ve just learned that I had been diagnosed with celiac and didn’t even know. I found it on paperwork from 15 years ago. No idea how this was missed by every doctor I’ve seen after the fact. I’m sitting here in tears because I have really awful symptoms that have been pushed off for years onto other medical conditions. My teeth are now ruined from vomiting, I have horrible rashes on my hands, I’ve lost a lot of weight, I’m always in pain, I haven’t had a period in about 8-9 months. I’m so scared. I have children and I saw it can cause cancer, infertility, heart and liver problems😭 I’ve been in my room crying for the last 20minutes praying. This going untreated for so long has me feeling like I’m ruined and it’s going to take me away from my babies. I found this site googling and I don’t know really what has me posting this besides wanting to hear from others that went a long time with symptoms but still didn’t know to quit gluten. I’m quitting today, I won’t touch gluten ever again and I’m making an appointment somewhere to get checked for everything that could be damaged. Is this an automatic sentence for cancer and heart/liver damage after all these symptoms and years? Is there still a good chance that quitting gluten and being proactive from here on out that I’ll be okay? That I could still heal myself and possibly have more children? Has anyone had it left untreated for this amount of time and not had cancer, heart, fertility issues or liver problems that couldn’t be fixed? I’m sure I sound insane but my anxiety is through the roof. I don’t wanna die 😭 I don’t want something taking me from my babies. I’d gladly take anyone’s advice or hear your story of how long you had it before being diagnosed and if you’re still okay?

      Genetic testing cannot be used to diagnose celiac disease but it can be used to rule it out and also to establish the potential to develop celiac disease. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop it. To develop celiac disease when you have the genetic potential also requires some kind of trigger to turn the latent genes "on", as it were. The trigger can be a lot of things and is the big mystery component of the celiac disease puzzle at this point in time with regard to the state of our knowledge.  Your IGA serum score would seem to indicate you are not IGA deficient and your tTG-IGA score looks to be in the normal range but in the future please include the reference ranges for negative vs. positive because different labs used different reference ranges. There is no industry standard.
    • Scott Adams
      Since nearly 40% of the population have the genes for celiac disease, but only ~1% end up getting it, a genetic test will only tell you that it is possible that you could one day get celiac disease, it would not be able to tell whether you currently have it or not.
    • KDeL
      so much to it.  the genetic testing will help if i don’t have it right? If theres no gene found then I definitely don’t have celiac?  I guess genetic testing, plus ruling out h.pylori, plus gluten challenge will be a good way to confirm yes or no for celiac.
