Mygawd...there are a whole slew of us posting.....what in hell do we all have to say? :lol:

Jess, that is a beautiful little boy! The accent does sound somewhat English, but perhaps more Afrikkaner (Southern Africa - - slight Dutch lilt)......hmmmmmm....tres interessant.....

Put your dog and your wife in the trunk of the car for an hour.

When you open the trunk, who is really happy to see you?

:lol::lol: Great one, Janet

Sarah, being is a mom is so hard. Bless you for trying so hard. Sounds like your such a good mom.

I absolutely second this, Judy.... ..so well said. Your kids are so lucky to have you, Sarah! :wub::)

Are yer saying it right Susie??? :unsure:

(she pronounces it wrong you know :rolleyes: )

Nicola! Souzzle has put out yer name with the stress on the first syllable. Could it be in the unusual, fetching positon of second syllable? Ni-CO-la.....

Or p'raps you were catching the long vowel sound on the first syllable, when it should be short.....Ni-cola, not Nee-cola.

Mygawd.....how boring. :lol: Please ignore the last ramble. Me and my schwa, diphthong, cadence obsession.....

I believe it depends on what nationality she's masquerading as. I would say Ni CO la sounds Italian, while NI cola comes off as Greek. Equal stresses, hmm, maybe seductive French NI CO LA? And Nico LA? Russian?

Excellent - - but if you did it in Fresno in July, they'd, um, both be DEAD :blink:

:lol::lol: Here too, or anywhere in the dead of summer.....OMG, makes me think about all the idiots that leave their pets or kids in a car for a long period of time.

Boris - poor wee kitty. I don't really like vaccines for pets - - I do rabies and that's about it - - Tika, after her cancer treatment, never had a shot again - and she lived ELEVEN whole years after chemo, in superb health!

I don't either, my Palmer got so very sick and reacted to the vaccines the first few ones he had so after that I no longer vaccinated him.

You guys wanna hear something incredibly stupid? :ph34r:

I took the bag out of the fridge today and put on me reading glasses and saw the warning--made on the dreaded shared equipment as wheat.

Does anyone think this may have contributed to the elevated liver enzymes? One was slightly high right before I was diagnosed, and went back to normal by 6 months gluten-free.

I'm really embarassed :ph34r:

Patti, don't beat yourself up, this is really easy for any of us to do. They are changing labels all the time and being more specific about labeling if there are shared lines or shared facilities, you would think plain nuts would be safe so i understand you not giving it a second thought.

I guess it could contribute to the elevated liver enzymes :huh: Can you talk to your Dr about it?

What she said.

Wouldn't you rather have your problems attributable to a momentary lapse in diligence, rather than some body part staging a rebellion?

Hee hee--I'm back after me tirade! :lol:

I just told Mark on the phone--he was really nice and just said that it's better I found out late than never. :)

Anywho.....

Jess--that little Riley is adorable, and does have a bit of an accent. :D And you're right about the rebellion--the timing is just too perfect.....

Julie :wub:

Sarah! Hope ya'll get to the library for some cool, quiet time :)

Mygawd, Patti, I can't tell you the number of times this has happened to me.....I'm fairly lazy about re-reading labels, much to my peril, it would seem. Incredible to me is the number of companies who suddenly decide to put wheat in their products. :angry::angry:

I believe it depends on what nationality she's masquerading as. I would say Ni CO la sounds Italian, while NI cola comes off as Greek. Equal stresses, hmm, maybe seductive French NI CO LA? And Nico LA? Russian?

Yep. Canadian would be the addition of an entire new syllable......Nicola-eh.

:rolleyes:

So, MIL flew off last evening.

Hmm......now, which emoticons to choose.. . ...?

Boy, that's a toughie...... . . . . .

Lemme ponder this for a while... . . ....

OMG.....We should do this. We should start a thread and call it just that: Ednazone - - for those who need help with Edna. Can you picture the expressions on all the non-Sillies' faces?

:huh::huh::huh:

Who is Edna?? Is she a new, troublesome forum member? Have I read her posts? Is she inappropriate or profane??

Then they would pause for only a moment, and slowly shake their heads...."Ah......but of course. It's those individuals on THAT thread".............

Sarah- (((((((((((Hugs))))))))). I think you sound a lot like my mom -she would have sat up with me ALL night if I needed her.And the withdrawal you are going through sounds BRUTAL. I've heard people describe this and it sounds so terrible. Wish we could come down, open a bottle of wine and hire someone to massage your feet! :wub: :wub: :wub: You can ALWAYS vent here.

Bunk beds :lol: :lol:

I always think it such a waste when one has some innocuous internal thing removed, such as a gallbladder, tonsils, appendix, stones of whatever sort.....being an artist, I will always see everything as a possible piece of work.

Patti, if you have your gb removed, ask for it....you could have it incorporated into a sculpture that forever evolves, grows and changes. :blink::lol:

Em, you so crazy!!!!!!!!! I asked for my gall stones and they said NO :angry: I wanted to put them on a necklace :lol: :lol:

Patteigh! My friend in San Jose had elevated liver enzymes for a full decade - - drove her insane - and she is about as puritanical and healthy as you can get (LITERALLY takes about - four aspirins a YEAR - very light drinker, VERY healthy eater, etc.)....

NIcola sent the phunniest email of my life..........'twas a full recounting of her day................

NEEK-oh-lahhhhhhhhhhh...............asking permission to publish here, please :lol: :lol:

Patti I hope all goes well- and Suze, hope Weezie is OK too. Mine have randomly gone up before and then back down. I'm telling ya, I think we all have the weirdest bodies. Could we be our own species? Homo Psillius?

Nikkeigh- You MUST post your phunny diary!

:lol: It only looks so good 'cos ALL of Al's belongings (DVD's, books, toys, general crap that children gather) is temporary in his Bruv's room.......good GAWD, it's like a small incendry device has gone off in there :rolleyes::lol:

I took the bag out of the fridge today and put on me reading glasses and saw the warning--made on the dreaded shared equipment as wheat.

OH PATTI!! :(

You and Terry both!!!!

GADS - Happens to the best of you - it ain't easy this cOeliac game :rolleyes:

Hope the effects wear off soon P'tea :) (Tel has swollen joints but negative toilet action so far )

Tel said the annoying thing is is that if he was going to 'intentionally' gluten himself he would have had a jam doUGHnut!!! :lol:

B) Very chic Nikki

Jules, I simply canNOT tell you how good I looked in 'em ;)

Poor little wee Boris, I know nothing of cats and vaccinations, but my dog used to get sooooo sick after every one.

I ain't gonna bother with 'em anymore

Lucy my 'old' cat never had any jabs.......poor BoBo (Boris) still seems 'fluey' :(

Jess, that is a beautiful little boy! The accent does sound somewhat English, but perhaps more Afrikkaner (Southern Africa - - slight Dutch lilt)......hmmmmmm....tres interessant.....

Very cute chap!!...but YES!, I concur with Em, sounds Afrikkans :) (short and clipped?)

Nicola! Souzzle has put out yer name with the stress on the first syllable. Could it be in the unusual, fetching positon of second syllable? Ni-CO-la.....

Or p'raps you were catching the long vowel sound on the first syllable, when it should be short.....Ni-cola, not Nee-cola.

Mygawd.....how boring. :lol: Please ignore the last ramble. Me and my schwa, diphthong, cadence obsession.....

AND...

I believe it depends on what nationality she's masquerading as. I would say Ni CO la sounds Italian, while NI cola comes off as Greek. Equal stresses, hmm, maybe seductive French NI CO LA? And Nico LA? Russian?

:blink:

I dunno how to describe the right sound,

Suzle says Neek-cola (coca-cola sound)

We Brits say Nik- er-ler :huh::lol:

The science guy at the library today was a MAD Scientist!!! He was hilarious, and at the end, he said, "So! Science is BORING, RIGHT???" All those kids screamed "NO!" so loudly, it rattled the windows. :D Mommy is pleased.

I made dairy-free corn dogs for lunch today. At first, I was flummoxed as to how to make the batter without milk... Then I just said, "Phark it, ya make polenta with water, what's the worst that could happen?" (I didn't really say phark- I'm kind of a potty mouth. :ph34r: ) They turned out fine. The coating was a little more delicate than normal, but tasted pretty much the same.

Going to attempt df pizza tonight. My crust recipe is df already, and I happen to have some df "mozzarella" that I bought as a just-in-case... I gotta hunt down a pizza sauce recipe, though... all I have is a can of tomato paste. I'm pretty sure I can do something to it to turn it into sauce... :huh:

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By trents · Posted

      You state in post #5 that you don't have celiac disease. Here in this post you state you will "be doing another test". What will this test be looking for? What kind of celiac disease testing have you had done? If you have used a Entero Labs it sounds like you have had stool testing done for celiac disease which is not widely accepted as a valid celiac disease diagnostic testing method. Have you had blood antibody testing for celiac disease done and do you realize that for antibody testing to be valid you must have been eating generous amounts of gluten for a period of weeks/months?

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By Gigi2025 · Posted

      No, I've not been diagnosed as celiac.  Despite Entero Labs being relocated to Switzerland/Greece, I'll be doing another test. After eating wheat products in Greece for 4 weeks, there wasn't any reaction.  However, avoiding it here in the states.   Thanks everyone for your responses.

      Oral thrush question

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Thank you @JulieRe so much for sharing this extra information. I'm so glad to hear you're feeling better and I hope it keeps moving in that direction. I feel I'm having so many lightbulb moments on this forum just interacting with others who have this condition. I also was diagnosed with gastric reflux maybe about 10 years ago. I was prescribed ranitidine for it several years back, which was working to reduce my gastric reflux symptoms but then the FDA took ranitidine off the shelves so I stopped taking it. I had a lot of ups and downs healthwise in and around that time (I suddenly gained 20 pounds, blood pressure went up, depression got worse, and I was diagnosed with OSA). At the time I attributed my change in symptoms to me taking on a new stressful job and didn't think much else about it. They did give me a replacement gastric reflux drug since ranitidine was off the shelves, but when I went on the CPAP for my OSA, the CPAP seemed to correct the gastric reflux problem so I haven't been on any gastric reflux drug treatment for years although I still do have to use a CPAP for my OSA. Anyway that's a long story but just to say… I always feel like I've had a sensitive stomach and had migraines my whole life (which I'm now attributing to having celiac and not knowing it) but I feel my health took a turn for much worse around 2019-2020 (and this decline started before I caught covid for the first time). So I am now wondering based on what you said, if that ranitidine i took could have contributed to the yeast overgrowth, and that the problem has just been worsening ever since. I have distinctly felt that I am dealing with something more than just stress and battling a more fundamental disease process here. I've basically been in and out of different doctor specialties for the past 5 years trying to figure out what's wrong with me. Finally being diagnosed with celiac one year ago, I thought I finally had THE answer but now as I'm still sick, I think it's one of a few answers and that maybe yeast overgrowth is another answer. For me as well, my vitamin deficiencies have persisted even after I went gluten-free (and my TTG antibody levels came down to measurably below the detectable limit on my last blood test). So this issue of not absorbing vitamins well is also something our cases have in common. I'm now working with a nutritionist and taking lots of vitamins and supplements to try and remedy that issue. I hope that you continue to see improvements in working with your naturopath on this. Keep us posted!

      I think I am gluten intolerant

      By ElenaM · Posted

      Hello everyone. I am Elena and am 38 years old. I suspect I have a gluten intolerance even if my celiac panel is ok. I have the following symptoms : facial flushing, Red dots not bumps în face, bloating abdominal distension, hair loss, depression anxiety even with meds and even bipolar. Fatigue extreme to the point of not being able to work. All of these after I eat gluten. Could I have non celiac gluten sensitivity? Thanks anyone else with these symptoms?

      Oral thrush question

      By JulieRe · Posted

      Hi Everyone,  I do appreciate your replies to my original post.   Here is where I am now in this journey.  I am currently seeing a Naturopath.  One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD.  My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow.    She has put me on some digestive enzymes.  She also put me on Zinc, Selenium, B 12, as she felt that I was not absorbing my vitamins. I am about 5 weeks into this treatment, and I am feeling better. I did not have any trouble taking the Fluconazole.
