Yes, a fine name, full of potential and promise and surely a joy to be around :rolleyes:

Emily Silver :lol: Such a shiny, happy name!

Speaking of silver, I DID see, or sort of hear vaguely, in the background, that the Canucks WON a silver today????!!!!!!! Em, what WOZ it?????????? Either cycling or canoo-ing er.......I mean.....kayacking? that's not it......what in hell is that watercraft they're using? Brain not coming up wif it at present........

:lol: Well, a joy to be around, dunno about that, but .....y'know, it's the damndest thing.. . . .I'm just sitting here, very quiet........ . .. . . .and.........it's quite unmistakeable... . . . ......

....... .. . . . . ..I think I can hear my uterus singing to me...........

:lol: :lol: :lol: gawd......is it "O Canada?" by chance? in hopes of winning some more medals? :lol:

imbue??? - don't get a chance to use that one much in yer everyday life - Susie will be pleased.

:lol: :lol: Pseuzee IS pleased :)

RACHEL - this is for you:

you quoted me twice in your post of a couple of days ago........I said soemthing like "it's not like this is the worldwide web or anything" and something like "it's not like everyone can't read our stuff" and.......at least one of those was taken out of context.

I am not sure if you are aware of exactly WHAT we talk about on here.........much of the time. :ph34r: alas, they are mainly bodily functions, and insofar as we know, there are no rules against that here. :lol:

We spent a VERY VERY VERY short time irritated at a couple of threads and hot-headed opinions and other stuff. I never read the beer thread and only briefly scanned the glutenease thread.......so I'm not sure what it was all about, precisely. Except that, from what I can gather, people become upset at another poster's ABSOLUTENESS over a solution/cure/answer when.....one cure does not fit all. Hence, people argue.

What *I* was referring to, mainly, was our talking about and wondering if people are AWARE..........um...........anal slings (from a movie, I think? Rob Schneider?), kangaroo scrotum sacks (someone's grandfather had a coin purse made out of this), pharts, anal glands (from the need to have our various dogs' glands squeezed) and other rather scatological topics, Rivers of Wee (from when I peed in a bathroom stall and missed the toilet completely)....Care Bears with machine guns :blink: (from a nutty teenager who was with us for a time, and seems to have left the forum), singing uterusus (uteri?), The Hoff, various celebrities we love, what we do all day......what we ate........diarrheal blowouts......Dutch ovens (a special kind of farting in bed)...the jobs we're doing or trying to get....the sleep we're getting or not getting.....the broken hearts from which we're suffering....BASTARD MEN. :angry: (two in our crowd have been afflicted by same)... things we ate......things we WANNA eat.....glutenings....stuff like taht. It's a fast pace........it's hard to jump in in the middle but we always LOVE and WELCOME any intrepid newcomer to our madness. :) We are madly goofy, and welcome ANYONE who wants to play.

We have over two years and 1200 pages of material, jokes that build upon jokes, lots of history here.......and plenty of goofy stuff. Lots of love, support, friendship, venting, and caring. Irreplaceable. Many in our group have actually MET each other, adn we long for the day when someone wins the lottery and can bring us all together. :wub:

and WHERE were many of these friendships/connections formed???????? In the OMG thread. IN Rachelville, in that magic and insane summer (for which we got BUSTED! ) in 2006. This is, really, a bedroom community of Rachelville.......a new place where we could be completely silly and off-topic and not get in trouble....and we NEVER have, until now. :( We never knew that such lovely, abiding friendships would develop. I can't even tell you how these people took care of me in my recent heartache........truly unbelievable. When my own friends, here in real life, were sick of listneing to me.......I had my sillies. :wub:

soooooooooooooo...........having said all that I'd like to now say - -

WE ARE DONE FIGHTING. WE ARE DONE SAYING BAD THINGS. WE temporarily lost our way, and our manners. very, very briefly.......very quickly. It's over now.

WE NEED TO MOVE ON.

Sillies, this is our beloved silly spot of friendship, goofiness, laffs and support.

AS YOUR QUEEN, I

HEREBY DECREE

that we get back to the spirit of things. Remember why we are here.

I would advise, if things upset you too much on controversial threads, do as I do, and STAY AWAY. Yes, the calm voice of reason should always prevail. But, people are going to believe what they want to believe, most of the time. Add your two cents, and move on. Do as Sarah did - and write to an offending company. WRite a couple of impassioned, informed posts.........and step away.

Or..........hell, stay there and fight. I don't care. :lol: Do what you need to do and do what is right.

But HERE?????????? BACK TO SILLY!!!!!!!!!!! BACK TO LOVE AND FRIENDSHIP!!!!!!!!!!! END OF DISSENSION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

end of monarchial rant. :ph34r:

Yes!! Yes!! Argumentative posts are to be recited in iambic pentametre. I will score it, put it to music, and my uterus will sing it. Actually, if you women take the time to sit quietly, and just.....listen..........perhaps you will hear strains coming from within, as well. Then we could have a chorus..... . . . .

Oh Canada.... . . yes, I believe that is what I've been hearing from....well, you know where.......and it's worked, as we've won three medals - -poised for a few more tomorrow!

Some people do take that personal.....however, having a difference in opinion is not a violation of board rule #1.

Making fun of the person (on a public forum) who does not agree with your views is disrespectful.

Clearly, we will have to agree to disagree that we have very different definitions of what constitutes acting respectfully. But alas, our monarch has declared the end of this so on to more important things :D

The post that was on the top of page 1200 is now about five posts down the page. To do that, posts would have to be inserted into the thread. A moderator could find an obscure old thread with five posts and merge that thread with this one to cause such an effect. But without going back and rereading the entire thread, it could be very difficult to find the imported posts. :angry:

      Hi. I’m 70 years old, and a 22 year survivor of head and neck cancer treated with chemo-radiation, which resulted in non-existent submandibular salivary glands and extreme dry mouth and altered oral mucosa. I have been using dry mouth toothpaste, Rx oral dentrifices and moisturizers for years.  I’ve recently been diagnosed with severe celiac dermatitis herpetiformis. I was being treated with oral Dapsone, but it was not effective and I developed some serious side effects. So, the medication was stopped and I was started on Doxycycline (another antibiotic) for inflammation. I’ve been using Rx Betamethasone steroid ointment with little to no effect. I have tried every oral and topical antihistamine treatment available OTC. None have touched this horrible relentless itching. That is my history.  Now to my question. Does anybody know about gluten free toothpastes and mouth moisturizers? I ask because a very common dry mouth brand stated to me that they were indeed gluten free. But as I am not getting any better with my dermatitis herpetiformis, I was wondering if I was getting glutenized some way other than diet as  I have been following a strict clean gluten free diet, but I am not seeing any improvement at all. So, I started looking up the toothpastes and moisturizer ingredients individually and nine (9) of the eleven (11) or so listed showed up as   containing gluten or that may have gluten! Am I getting glutenized orally by these products?  As an aside, I checked on my favorite lavender scented baby lotion which is supposed to be gluten free, but many of those ingredients when investigated separately, show they  do contain or may contain gluten as well. I stopped using the lotion. But I cannot forgo my dental care. I was unable to get any information from the manufacturer of my current brand of chewable multivitamins either. They told me to check with my doctor. If THEY don’t know what’s in their product, how do they think a PCP will?  In light of all this, I am confused and angry that I might keep getting contaminated with gluten through products I am using that are supposedly gluten safe. *I should also state that I have a nickel allergy since I was about 12-13 years old. And I developed a contact allergy to latex (gloves) when I was a student nurse at 19 years old.  I know and I’m sorry that this is so lengthy. I’m trying to do everything I can to combat this condition, and I’m feeling very confused, anxious and angry about not getting adequate information as I try to educate and advocate for myself. I’m hoping someone here is more knowledgeable than me of how to navigate through all of this. Can anyone offer any advice?  Thank you for your time.  Respectfully,  Linda

      I’m terrified it’s too late for me😭

      By trents · Posted

      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?

      I’m terrified it’s too late for me😭

      By Cathijean90 · Posted

      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?

      diagnostic testing variance

      By trents · Posted

      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.

      diagnostic testing variance

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      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.
