Well....this is decidedly NOT a great photo. . . . jeez, with all the sophisticated settings on my photoshop software, ya'd think I could have gotten things brighter, clearer.. . ...more flattering..... ..

Alas, this is the best I could do. I'm sorry we cannot see Jacquie better. :angry: She seems to be in the area where the sun was streaming through .. ....and this is no surprise, as Jacquie is indeed someone who has sunshine around her. :)

Ummmm . . . . who's whining?? Suezee or Weezle?

OMG not sure who WOULD whine more :lol:

Oops meant to throw a :lol: at Pseu-purr-Oui-zul earlier.

<sadly shaking head> Moving from Monterey (& of course, mere minutes from Grande South) was purely medical necessity tweren't it?

Dang .. ..wish I'd been feeling better that day in Feb or March when you were in Willow Glen & I was bowing out.

Forgetting whether you even had time.

always LURVE the Ouizel spellings :cackle:

A$$HOLE :angry: and I were on very limited time that day in WG.......so sad we didn't meet!

Yes - moved home from Monterey as I kept getting SOOOOOOOO sick - my mom had to come take care of me - four? times - five days each.....................

oh and plus all me friends but one moved away.................

Amanda! Lots going on - sending prayers and love......keep us posted. Love the house......

I should like to psilly ambassador to the UK along with SpruesieQ (we like the mystical fog, shrubbery, accents and kilts!

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

.....and don't forget the gorgeous men :wub:

Now, psilly summits.....can we have a London/2012/Olympics pleeeeeease (no ka - ching for me ha ha)

Bev - cool beans on the pics . . . does anyone else use that term? . . . we use to use it all the time . . . don't know where it came from . . . Suezee will probably say she and one of her friends made it up.

*snort*

Why yes, you picked up on that!! I do love me European menfolk ...actually menfolk of all nations, I do not discriminate, hee hee!

yes........menpholk of all nations........just seems that there is a preponderance of UK hotties these days, don't it? :droolface:

I'm blessed to live in such a nice place where they really care deeply about each other and are there the second someone needs anything. Rare in this day and age.

I take great strength in seeing this. Still no 'silly' in me but am finding some 'joyfull blessings' so will take that for now.

aw Judy, so sorry to hear this. What a long life they had together. Quite a neighborhood you have there!

{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}}

OH!

Yes - she said that there are 15 emoticons in total..............

but we can ONLY now use 10 per post.

This is an outrage. :angry: A removing of a privilege, if you will, that we once so phondly and phreely enjoyed.

What if, one day, one felt such a..........curious mix of conflicting emotions (joy, ennui, boredom, malaise, Manchester, titillation, grief, horror.......oh wait - this is reminding me of someone I know :lol: )..........just every sort of pheeling there is, emoticonally speaking. And - one NEEDED to use all 15 in one's post, for correct expression.....yet only TEN are available to us, per post........

an outrage, I tell you, AN OUTRAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think this DEMANDS a proposition/amendment to this situation......and how very timely to address this discussion now, as we can all (well, US residents) vote on this on Tuesday.........

mark yer ballots!

it's the highly important (but oft-ignored) Prop 20, Emoticonal Dearth, Deprivation and Damnation. Vote YES for more smileys.

Do you think it is too late to contact either (or both) of the candidates with our portentous forum issue?

It is possible that this has NOT come to your attention; therefore, in brief, a sudden and enormous change has occurred in the large American voting area of Psillyville. In fact, this realm is international, which makes it all the more vital to put things right, for the eyes of Canada and Great Britain are turned to the U.S. and need reassurance that they will be respected and supported under new leadership.

Emoticons have been suddenly restricted, without forewarning or explanation. Many citizens rely on these characters for their day-to-day communication, and find themselves deeply handicapped, often unable to function socially..... . . .

If there's time, let's send this off. One of them is bound to listen. If ANYONE can fix this emergency, it's the President of the United States.

      For me I gave up oat products and it finally cleared. I had a whole body reaction for months. Two additional culprits for me: shared grill at a restaurant or a shared toaster.  Hope you have relief soon.

      It can take between 6 months and 2 years for the dermatitis herpetiformis rash to resolve. The symptoms of dermatitis herpetiformis arise from deposits of certain antibodies building up in the skin. These deposits attract immune cells leading to inflammation and blistering. It can take 10 years for the deposits to be reabsorbed although symptoms resolve long before this.

      Welcome to the forum, Linda! Many on this forum can sympathize with you. It can be extremely difficult to get reliable information about gluten when it comes to meds, supplements and oral hygiene products. This is especially true since so much of this stuff is generic and comes from over seas. I will deflect with regard to your question about meds and oral products but take you in another direction. Have you tried a low iodine diet. Iodine is known to exacerbate dermatitis herpetiformis and some find that a low iodine diet helps reduce the number of outbreaks. By the way, have you had your celiac antibodies retested recently? If they are elevated that might be a clue that you are getting gluten in your oral hygiene products or meds.

      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

      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?
