I am so bad at being not well. Follow up is 1 month after surgery.

Stopping the pain meds was a good idea. Made me much more aware of when I was overdoing it.

I'll try doing gentle stretches throughout the day. Maybe just being in a multitude of positions will help, even if they aren't strenuous.

:D Yeah--you kinda go stir crazy. What you don't want to happen is adhesions.....(not to mention popping an internal stitch) that's why it's best to keep to walking and changing positions (carefully) right now. I learned this the hard way after my c-section. I was much younger and bounced back rather quickly.....mowed the lawn after 3 weeks :ph34r: .....guess what I developed? :P

After my 5 week follow-up (this time), I was cleared to do almost everything--so be patient and be a good patient :lol:

SILLIES - - I have been working out SO HARD at the gym - I think i've.......torn things..... :unsure: am in SO much pain adn too old for this sort of activity............shoulder/hip/back - what in hell? it didn't USED to hurt this much when I worked out........... :angry: getting old SUCKS!

Gawd, ain't it the truf! <_<

Think I'd be slowly backing toward the door if upon entering I saw metal stirrups affixed to his chest freezer........ . . . . ... :o:lol:

I've written 5 weeks of sick leave, but I'm set up to work from home, so I can extend that by doing part time from home, if I need to. Any longer than 5 weeks and it's my vacation time and heaven forbid I use that for lollygagging and not traveling.

A bit of cute for you.

Since I'm home, I've been leaving the door open so the cats can go out. Max doesn't go much farther than the porch, and Lefty doesn't really leave the yard, although he is fascinated with the green space behind my house. If I haven't seen Lefty for a while I'll go out and call him. He always comes running, and he seems to think that I'm calling him because I need his comfort. He runs up to me, stands up, puts one paw on my knee, and reaches the other up to be picked up.

It is unbelievably adorable.

Hi everyone

. ....what day is it already?

I guess my brain's coming around a little . ...but still SO far from silly.

And been too tired to even make dinner sometimes.

Yesterday, at a lab for a blood draw (4th visit to do what should've been done in one visit - thyroid & CBC), I'm so ***** stupid, I forgot my own zipcode.

Far cry from the wordplay & perma-smile of days gone by. :(

When I'm incapable of laughter, or even an amused smile, it's .. .. ..argh depressing isn't quite the word . .. .irksome? .. ... maddening? . .. ..well it's just not fun to read the silly.

If I lost my sense of taste, would I bother seeking out favorite foods?

I can't tell if I'll EVER have as much fun conversing as I had every day of those 5 or 6 months last year.

Maybe I'll try to catch up late at night - brain sometimes a little better then.

HI, PTAOUGHMHGMN!! :):)

Um......doesn't everyone forget their postal codes on occasion?? :unsure::huh:

That is a great comparative question, Ptaoughmghmn....I'm sure the answer would be NO, that you wouldn't be craving or even interested in delicious food were your taste gone. So, it's understandable that you have no desire to come into Sillyville when nuttin' seems phunny to ya....... .. . We understand, and hope that your true Silliness resurfaces and has us cackling away post after post. We've missed you! .. ...Sounds like you've been missing yourself. :)

So, went to my doc's house. :huh::lol:

I did not have to crawl upon his freezer, as he doesn't do that kind of examination....just eyes, reflexes, BP, etc. It's more talking.... .a LOT of talking, going over blood sugar levels, trends and patterns, meds.....essentially, my life in an hour. His house is 100 years old, a huge, sprawling, gabled stone manse. I'm glad I did not have to do window duty....just too many of them. And I did hear a clothes dryer going in the background, so I kept wondering if I was going to have some folding to do.....

Ironing?? Bah! This I would refuse............

Gah! Thank gawd, I have superb BP....today it was 112 over 76, as per usual. Something, something, I don't have to worry about......!!

He did have to go and get his BP monitor from the kitchen, where his teenaged son and buddies were seeing how much, and how quickly, their numbers would go up after each successive espresso was pounded back.......

And.....he needed to renew my Eltroxin prescription, and could not find his scrip pad anywhere in his office. I'm quietly starting to wonder about that teenaged son of his, when his wife opens the office door and places the pad on his desk - - she'd used it to jot down phone numbers and appointment times while doing the reception work...... .. . . . . ..

It is an interesting atmosphere in which to be... . . . .. :huh::rolleyes:

      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.

      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.

      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.

      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!

      @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.
