Actually, I've referenced Ptaoughmhmn elsewhere two or three times, and used our special Psilly Pspelling. Imagine what others were thinking whilst reading my post.. .. ."Wow - - which member is THIS? Must be from Latvia or Iceland". And then trying to figure out how his name would be pronounced..... :lol::lol:

Hello, Sillies,

Another beautiful afternoon, and I'm out on the deck with three furry friends (Tuppence is inside for some reason).

And where is Sarah? I speak of Silly Sarah--I know where our wayward employee Sarah is. That Sarah is due August 2.

They must be working Amanda hard. She has gone more than 24 hours without posting, although I did see her lurking earlier while I was also lurking. ;)

Nothing else to add for now.

Okay...I've got another query from The Ripper. This one is FASCINATING!

Just imagine:

It is time to elect a new world leader, and only your vote counts. Here are the facts about the three candidates. For whom would you vote ?

Candidate A.

Associates with crooked politicians, and consults with astrologist He's had two mistresses. He also chain smokes and drinks 8 to 10 martinis a day.

Candidate B.

He was kicked out of office twice, sleeps until noon, used opium in college and drinks a quart of whiskey every evening.

Candidate C

He is a decorated war hero. He's a vegetarian, doesn't smoke, drinks an occasional beer and never cheated on his wife.

Which of these candidates would be our choice?

After everyone has chosen, I'll report the last part of this exercise that Jack gave me. He's keeps me thinking, this kid.....

Pat *giggle* don't be scared.........embrace it :lol:

:lol: :lol: saw this post again, and for some reason I read this, whilst looking at Nik's av, and saw piggle.

Not so strange, really, as Lauren calls me Piggle, Pizzle (who knows what this is? raise yer hands! i'm quite sure pOeter knows) and other variations.......Pig Bomb, Piggie, Piglet, etc.

OMG. Em, this is clearly a trick question posed by the Ripper, so, I'll just cast my vote at this time for the whiskey drinking opium user who sleeps til noon. :blink::lol:

I, too, feel this is a trick question . . . we are OBVIOUSLY suppose to pick C. So I will pick C so we know what it means if you pick C . . . out of the other two, I prefer B as it appears he doesn't start drinking until the end of the day.

Yes, where IS Alex :unsure:

I'm here! I guess it's been awhile since I last posted, eh? Didn't realize I'd been away so long. Some of the non-Sillyville posts have been getting on my nerves lately and I've been rather irritable and easily annoyed of late so I took a leave of absence to spare you all from my pissy attitude. Basically, I could use a good smack on the head ;) .

Okay...I've got another query from The Ripper. This one is FASCINATING!

I pick B, cuz it seems like he's someone who could hold his own in any kind of world leaders disagreement. And at least he drinks in the evening, not while in office.

Guess what? I just averted a potential gluten disaster :o

I was thawing some pork chops in the microwave, planning to top with veggies and some salt-free stewed tomatoes. I was chopping the veggies, and re-read the can....I missed this in the store--natural flavors :o:o

It's a store brand, so I checked on-line and it was not on the gluten free list....called CS, but the poor guy who answered was clueless. He offered to put through "an inquiry", but I was in the middle of making dinner <_<

So....I scrapped the original plan, froze the veggies and am going with baked chops with roasted potatoes.

That was a close one :)

They are also dog treats. We sell them. The treats are also known as bullwrinkles, and as steer sticks. Full size they are almost 30 inches, but are popular when cut into 12- 8- or 5-inch pieces.

Oh, and here is some doggie news . . .

I took Josie for her annual check-up/vaccination and what do they find?????? Her knee cap is popping in and out of place. I hadn't noticed any problems when she runs so for the moment, no action needed. However, if (and I think this is more likely when) she does start having issues, she's going to need surgery. Now does anybody else here feel like this is somehow Emily's fault???!!!??? <_<:lol: Baaahhhh!!!!! It's a good thing she's so cute!!!! (I'm talking about Josie, not Emily). ;):lol:

      High Folate Levels

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Tyoung! Apparently, folic acid in supplements is readily absorbed into the bloodstream as opposed to getting folate from natural food sources. So, high levels in the blood can happen quickly from supplementation: Your body doesn’t absorb folate as easily as it absorbs folic acid. It’s estimated that about 85% of folic acid from fortified foods or supplements is absorbed, while only 50% of natural folate from foods is used by your body. After folic acid is absorbed into your bloodstream, it’s broken down into smaller compounds by your liver. However, the liver is only able to process a certain amount of folic acid at a time. As a result, consuming too much folic acid from fortified foods and supplements can cause unmetabolized folic acid (UMFA) to accumulate in your blood. This doesn’t happen when you eat high folate foods. From: https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/folic-acid-side-effects#How-excess-folic-acid-develops I would think your folate levels will normalize over time. But I'm curious. Were you tested for vitamin/mineral deficiencies before being given supplements or was it just assumed you would have them after finding out you have celiac disease? Your acid reflux issues could certainly be a holdover from the week of supplementation now discontinued. Another possibility is "gluten withdrawal" which some experience in the first few weeks after going gluten free. Gluten has addictive qualities similar to opiates. Another possibility is certain polysaccharides commonly found in gluten free prepackaged facsimile foods. They use these polysaccharides (e.g., xanthan gum) as texturing agents to approximate what gluten does in wheat products and they are hard to digest. Let me caution you against long term proton pump inhibitor (PPI) therapy for the acid reflux. That simply raises gut PH (lowers acidity) which interferes with the absorption of vitamins and minerals from our diets. Way too often, docs will prescribe PPIs as a band aid for reflux and leave their patients on them forever. It's much better to use over the counter calcium-based remedies like TUMS to give you coverage as needed rather than treat reflux systemically with acid blockers.

      High Folate Levels

      By Tyoung · Posted

      I was diagnosed in November with celiacs and at the time had been tested for multiple vitamin deficiencies. During that time my folate level was 4ng/mL, Although I was told to take supplements, I ended up only taking them for a week or so as they made my stomach upset. I had my blood work redone yesterday and as the results came in I noticed that most of my levels are now normal, but folate level is >24ng/mL. Has anyone else had similar results? If so were you able to figure out why or how to normalize them? I also have been having constant acid reflux since about two weeks into going gluten free (no acid reflux history prior to) that we are trying to get to the bottom of with no answers. Could that be related? Thank you!! Also wanted to not that I am not eating any gluten free processed food.

      Do I have celiac/Gluten sensitivity?

      By JohannesW85 · Posted

      Did you take a look at my pics that I uploaded?    These rashes is not itchy, but I have seen that people have this too that have celiac and it’s not itchy for them either. I have also heard that sulfur burps are a common things with celiac too.  Yes it can be something else too but it’s to much symptoms that I have that match with either gluten sensitivity or celiac.   Hopefully it’s just gluten intolerance and not celiac.  As I said before I have the gen type for celiac and diabetes typ 1 and the those diseases going hand in hand.    Thanks again Trent for your time to reply, and I wonder if any body else have kind of the same symptoms that I have?

      Hunger, nervous stomach or Hpylori?

      By captaincrab55 · Posted

      Welcome Connie Smitj,  Did you have a follow up test to see if the treatment for H Pylori was successful?  It's possible to catch it again, especially from a partner.  When I contracted it a second time my wife was tested and was positive for two of the bacteria in H Pylori.

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Connie Smitj! Can you give us a little more history about your celiac journey? How long ago were you diagnosed and how long have your been gluten free? Do you have other symptoms besides quick onset of hunger after eating and gut pain? How long have these symptoms being happening?
