Got thumbs up from the pedGI . . . don't have to go back until January.

Good news! :D

Now yes.....what has become of Nik? Was her Turkish holiday supposed to go this long?

It's called Loop for Life, and they shut down I-465 around Inpls........and get a police escort. They raise money foe several charities, including St. Mary's Child Center, Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia, and Ryan White's Infectious Disease Center. Last year there was about 3,000 riders and they raised $102,000.

What a great event to be a part of! :D

Yeah--paper was always a premium commodity at our school too :lol:

.....Cannot find me cats.....been out calling them, but they are having none of that........

Phorgot to tell you all that like Gus's receding poodle gums, BOTH cats also have considerable recession. What in hell is with that? Everything is receding around me - - my gums, my animals' gums, my husband's hairline, my mental faculties........my boobs.. . . ..... ..Krap......... :lol:

All right, Sillies, need some crucial advice, here. Several years ago, for a reason that I cannot recall, I had to get a pill down Bryce's mouth (our big male tabby). I managed it without incident, I am sure, because I remember little about it. Well, I now have to get two pills down his throat, two weeks apart, and two pills down Tess's throat (our little fiesty female). I briefly tried with Bryce. No way. I haven't even attempted this yet with Tess. Gad.........

I know for certain it is a two-person job. Two adults.

Well, since the cats are outside, does this mean you haven't tried it yet?

Okay. You must simply trick them. Open their mouths, hold them open - do this VERY QUICKLY. (uh, one cat at a time, please :lol: ). Shove the pill to the VERY back of the throat, then tickle the throat....they can't help but swallow.

This seriously must be about a 1.5 second operation - they never even know what hits 'em. ;)

Tom

I don't know where you guys see this number ??? :blink:

the post # isn't it as it wasn't 1299.

See you need a smart queen :ph34r:

:lol: The others have explained it well. See, for some reason.....here in sillyville, when we hit a HUGE post number, like, 2000, 3000, 10,000 - WHATEVER - there is always some sort of fluid onslaught! Dishwasher, plumbing issues, flooding in basement.......or HUMAN fluids: diarrhea, vomit, snot, anything. :lol: So LOOK OUT!! Yer ceiling's leaking, and look at your POST COUNT!!!!!!!! it's TRUE pholks, no urban legend, the Phlooding of Sillyville!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't have one of my own......Hubby's is a Yamaha.........I'm really not into motorcycles either, but since DD and her boyfriend and my hubby were going, I decided to go along and make it a family affair. Of course, the catered lunch will be totally off limits for me :angry:

And I've grown to accept the motorcycle a little more, especially with gas prices the way they are.

DD has her own motorcycle, and that kinda freaks me out. :unsure:

Morning Sillies--

Yesterday my day here at work was a train wreck....problem after problem...Here's hoping today runs a little smoother, I mean it is Friday and all it should be a wind down day don't ya'll think?

G'Morning, Sillies!

A stinker of a day promised.....32 celcius, and very humid. :sweatface;

All right, I carried Tess into DH last night as he lay on the couch and said gleefully, "you have to try to give her this pill. It is impossible". He took the pill, carefully pried open her mouth, and threw it in. He released her, she licked her lips and shook her head, then jumped down and sauntered from the room.

Haaaaaaaanhhhh???! :rolleyes::rolleyes::angry:

An hour later, when DH was in bed, I carried Bryce in, tossed him on the bed and handed Will the caplet. The same thing transpired... .. .it was like giving Jack candy.

:blink: This is quite.... . . ..compelling and..... . . ...aggravating. I am the one who cares for the animals, who feeds them, grooms them, has them on my lap, hugs them constantly.....totally MY gig. So, why can Will step right in and perform such a heinous, high-stress operation like cat-pilling, when he has NO experience with them, when they hardly interact wif him....???

Gawd. Well, it's done.

William, the Cat Whisperer. <_<:lol:

August so far has been absolutely beautiful--not too humid or hot. July was heinously that way, but this month it's been one nice summer day after another..... B)

TGIF--what a week--eh?

Got nuthin else....woke up with a sinus headache :angry: I'm thinking bout Bevvie--she gets her PICC line back today :( Hopefully Jess is resting lots and healing nicely.....our Sarah--always on my mind...

Motorcycles--so many have them out here and I'm sure they're using them more cuz of the gas prices. My son (the one who lives in NJ) has mentioned getting one.....

Ooh--yesterday I made a "Cause You're Special" lemon cake (don't tell Edna ;) )......and did a homemade buttercream frosting---omg--to DIE for! So good--Mark thought so too. :P

      NEED TO READ ALL LABELS (FRONT & BACK)

      By julie falco · Posted

      BRAND NAME: NOT BURGER PLANT-BASED PATTIES  A product I came across labeled gluten-free bought it when I got home I read the back ingredients further to notice that it says gluten with a line going through it u will see in the attached pics.     The label says down below that it is processed in a facility that also processes "WHEAT".  I tried to put this on the Gov. website as false advertisement but couldn't do it.  Maybe on here at least the word can get out to others not to purchase anything gluten-free without throughly reading the whole label....It won't let me upload 2 pics.  says to contact manager.   The products name is Not Burger    INGREDIENTS: Water, Pea Protein, Coconut Oil, Sunflower Oil, Natural Flavors, Bamboo Fiber, Less than 2% of: Methylcellulose, Dried Yeast, Rice Protein, Salt, Cocoa Powder Processed with Alkali, Psyllium Husk, Potato Fiber, Red Beet Juice Powder (color), Chia Protein Concentrate, Spinach Powder.   Manufactured in a facility that also processes wheat and soy.          MANUFACTURED FOR: The NotCompany, Inc, 438    Treat Avenue, San Francisco, CA 94110.

      I think a UTI caused by Aspirin, made me a Celiac

      By jimmydee · Posted

      Let me start by saying that I am self- diagnosed Celiac. I didn't want to pay for tests, because I don't have health insurance and the doctor said I would HAVE to eat gluten for the tests and I am afraid it will kill me. I diagnosed myself by quitting dairy, sugar and gluten for a couple weeks and figured out the problem by process of elimination.  ANYWAYS.......here's why I blame "Aspirin low dose safety coated" for my Celiac Disease.  I started taking regular Aspirin for a couple weeks for back pain and decided to switch to low dose safety coated Aspirin because I thought a smaller dose was safer for regular use. Well about 3 days after starting low dose safety coated aspirin, I got a terrible UTI. I didn't know what to do (should have gone to doctor) I started taking cranberry pills and read Aspirin can cause UTIs, so stopped taking that. A week later, the UTI was getting worse but then my Dad gave me some probiotic pills and the next day I felt better, so I took those for a week and the UTI was gone. About a week later, I bought my family cake and pizza for a birthday party. I ate a whole bunch and there was some leftover the next day, so I ate a bunch again. Welp, that was my first Gluten attack. I was home alone and almost called an ambulance, my stomach was so full of gas I couldn't breathe, I was covered in sweat and thought I was having a heart attack.  Since quitting Gluten I haven't had the "gas attacks" or had the awful constipation that lasts 3 days. So I'm certain I'm Celiac and I absolutely blame low dose safety coated Aspirin, I think it's the time release binder that is the problem, because I was fine with regular aspirin, I was just breaking those into halves or quarters. Actually now that I think about it I may have even used the regular aspirin at other times in my life before that, just not the little low dose safety coated Aspirin, that's what I think caused it. What's weird is my Dad took the low dose safety coated Aspirin for years and years, for it's reported heart benefits, and he never got Celiac.  Anyways, I felt this was important to share, so they can find the cause of this disease, which seems to be affecting more people than ever before. At least Gluten Free Pizza exists, that's been my new staple food in my diet.

      Getting rid of the belly bloat

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Karen Chakerian, We need more information, please.   What homeopathic remedies or medications are you taking now?  Do you still have the blood pressure and other symptoms?  What is included in your diet currently?  Dairy? Oats?  Processed gluten free foods?  Vegetarian?  Other food allergies?  Do you take vitamins?  When gluten is removed from the diet, the body stops making the anti-gluten antibodies that are usually measured in blood tests used to diagnose Celiac disease.  To measure the anti-gluten antibodies, you would have to consume 10 grams of gluten (4-6 slices of bread or equivalent) per day for a minimum of 2 weeks or longer.   A DNA test which looks for the most common genes for Celiac Disease may be a less invasive avenue to pursue.  Has your doctor checked you for nutritional deficiencies? Glad you're here!

      Dangerously underweight, Perfect gluten free and insomnia

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @SaiP, Insomnia is listed as one of the side effects of Loratadine.   Niacin B3 in the form Tryptophan, Pyridoxine B 6, Folate B 9, Cobalamine B12, Magnesium, and Thiamine B 1 are needed to produce the sleep hormone melatonin.  Insomnia can also be caused by low Vitamin D and low Vitamin A.   A strict gluten free diet can be low in essential  vitamins.   Gluten containing products are required to replace vitamins lost in processing and milling.  Gluten free processed foods are not required to have vitamins added.  White rice is not a good source of B vitamins.  Brown rice is little better.  Exposure to light (even grocery store lights) and heat (during transportation) can destroy B vitamins.   B vitamins are easily lost in urine and diarrhea because they are water soluble.  If you have had diarrhea longer than two weeks, you are probably low in B vitamins.  Fat based vitamins, like Vitamins D and A, can be low due to fat malabsorption in Celiac disease, too.   Damaged villa in Celiac Disease do not absorb B vitamins and fat based vitamins and minerals well.  Supplementing with essential nutrients while villi heal boosts the ability to absorb essential vitamins and minerals.  Vitamins are stored and utilized inside cells.  Blood levels are not accurate measurements of vitamin deficiencies.  You can have normal blood levels while having deficiencies inside cells.  The brain orders cells to release their stores so the brain and heart can keep functioning.  This results in normal blood levels, but vitamin deficits inside cells.   Your indulgence in a little bit of bread is providing some, but insufficient amounts, of vitamins needed to make sleep hormone melatonin while keeping your inflammation and histamine production high.   In addition to a B Complex, I took 1000 mg of tryptophan before bed to correct my insomnia caused by high histamine levels.  Correcting my Vitamin D level to between 75-100 nmol/ml helped as well.  Also Passion flower extract is helpful in falling asleep quickly.   Please stop eating gluten bread as this will keep your autoimmune response triggering and your antibody levels won't go down and your histamine levels will stay up as well.   Celiac is a marathon, not a sprint.  P.S. I wanted to reiterate that insomnia and weight loss are symptoms of Thiamine deficiency.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that promotes intestinal healing.  Thiamine is water soluble and nontoxic even in high doses.  High doses are needed to correct thiamine deficiency. All mitochondria in cells utilize thiamine.  The World Health Organization says to take 500 - 1000 mg per day of thiamine and look for health improvement.  Diets that are high in carbohydrates like rice and gluten require more thiamine.  For every 1000 calories from carbohydrates, we need 500 mg more thiamine.  Thiamine is found in meat.  Few veggies contain thiamine. Can you rise from a squat without assistance?  This is the field test for thiamine deficiency used by WHO.  If you cannot rise easily from a squat you may be thiamine deficient.

      Earlier, you mentioned the possibility of adding in sweet potatoes. Have you tried that? Have you tried sourdough bread? Some people with celiac disease claim they can eat sourdough without a gluten reaction. The fermentation process alters the protein somewhat.
