I'm with V'scope on not much embarassing me. I've had to make the dreaded trip to the drugstore more than once. No matter how much other stuff you buy to hide the fact your buying something with wings that doesn't fly, it always seems like the flightless pad "always" (is that where they get the name?) requires a price check :blink:

Good guffaw Richard, nearly blew coffee out my nose on this one....

and as far as INVITING men here....well we'd better send the Geese and dingos (um, reference to our security task force in the OMG thread for those who don't know) to fetch Steve - yes, poor STeve, doesn't know he's been sucked into anoother thread while he's minding his own business...... :lol:

Patti - ancient - I think not!! wow - permanently straightening hair...another thing I"ve done to myself :ph34r::o worked rather well - much better than the coloring experience.....too many other chemicals on hair to do it now - -

Gray's - - my prediction - - Meredith is going to get way too exhausted dating both of these guys - there will be a meltdown at some point - - but HOW can theylet her be wtih McDreamy, they would NEVER give us that satisfaction......they will torture us.....

Hi Kristy - OMG she wears color-coordinated nail polish - - should we let her in - - :lol::lol::o:lol: (totally kidding, of course you can come - you and PixieGirl can be the glamour divas).....

My husband is like Richard and Vincent in regard to not being embarassed to buy certain personal products. Actually, if the cashier is a guy, I get kinda embarassed. :ph34r:

Susan--I decided against any highlighting in light of the straightening. You're right--don't want to damage the mane. :D Not too much, anyway :unsure:

Good God, not THE GEESE! :blink: I guess we should be thankful there aren't any ill-tempered penguins in the area - there AREN't any ill-tempered penguins here....are there? :huh:

Patti... omg... another twin phobia... I hate to go get personal things at the store too... :lol::ph34r:

:ph34r: Isn't that funny! I really think my husband is less embarassed than I am :lol:

Related story--I used my last 2 emergency Immodiums before I went to the salon. (anxiety in full swing) So, I'm in CVS on the way home buying more. All I could think of was--"this guy probably thinks I have D"!! :lol::lol:

hahahaha, Patti, that made me laugh.

One of my personal favorites was buying beer (for hubby), Imodium in large quantities (for me), and um, "protection" (for both of us, so yall figure that one out.) I stood in line with a straight face and was beet red.

I read somewhere that the most shoplifted items are condoms and Preparation H. Now there is a joke in there somewhere...

Patti, I'm the same way. My husband has no qualms whatsoever. So maybe we should just be embarassed with the unmarried cashiers. :unsure::ph34r:

Ok, Celia.....we can be triplets in this instance. Let me in. :lol:

The store I buty "protection" at has everything back by the pharmacy so I pay there. Nice and convenient.

:angry: ROBERT :angry: had a good story - buying tampons for his then 15-y-o daughter, diapers for his 2 year old daughter, and a six pack for himself.....

I have used preparation H under my eyes, as models do, for puffiness...not only did I stink like cod, it burned and did not work.....

I would NEVER buy beer at the same time, I still get carded once in a while, so it might slow my getaway...

You've just shattered my dreams of Cindy Crawford, or should I say "stinky fish-faced" SUPERmodel Cindy Crawford.

FYI supermodels aren't supermodels because they are smart :) I wouldn't take any advice from them :P

They even use duct tape as a "lift" for their assets.

No more Cosmo for you! (or me) ;)

Oh, bad choice of birds, I didn't mean THAT Penguin (notice the capitalization). I meant ill mannered-kiwi's, no that'll tick of the NZlanders...Dodo's- they're extinct, right?

aaaaaaaaaaaagh excellent :lol: but I'll tell you something, Cindy Crawford is genetically gifted and perfect...I don't think she even GETS puffy eyes and most likely doesn't stink like fish - ever :angry::lol:

She's not ill-tempered though.

Someone should send her a pm inviting her to this thread. Laura could use another ish-ish. Were there any other ish-ish's?

She has her own infomercial now. She is hawking some ageless beauty cream for 4 easy payments of $29.95 you too can turn back the clock... "Don't hate me because I'm beautiful" (I know, that was Kelly LeBrock - at least she married Steven Segal before he weighed 300 lbs and lost his mind)

      Not sure if this is Celiac or just a gluten-free intolerance

      By trents · Posted

      I question your terminology. I believe "gluten intolerance" is used as a synonym for celiac disease in most circles today whereas "gluten sensitivity" is used of NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) though you still see a lot of inconsistency in how the terms are deployed.

      Testing positive for antibodies, are there visible changes to the colon that could be seen without a biopsy?

      By cameo674 · Posted

      Because of my brother’s supplement regime and my and my husband’s known gene mutations, all of the kids (26,28,30 - I should not call then kids) take PureTherapro RX Methyl Multi without iron, the MagTech magnesium supplement with 3 forms of magnesium, and D3.  I am still trying to find a Fish Oil supplement for them that comes in smaller size capsules.  I take the Metagenics lemon flavored Fish Oil Epa Dha 1000mg gels and the kids call them horse pills.  They want something 1/2 that size bur don’t have a fishy taste.

      Colonoscopy with large are of inflammation

      By growlinhard1 · Posted

      Thank you for the response. I didn't think of  the things you presented but they make a ton of good sense. I'm in the USA so no stipend for a formal dx. With the added cost of gluten free food, I wish there was some program to help. I bought a loaf of gluten free bread that cost $7.99 and my usual multi grain is $2.57!  I REALLY felt the doctors taking you more seriously comment. That is a huge issue. I just had fairly extensive blood work done, none of which was testing for celiac, and everything came back normal. I felt completely dismissed by my doctor even though my symptoms remained unchanged. As a matter of fact, Celiac disease wasn't even on my regular doctors radar. I think after studying the symptoms and comparing them with my symptoms that should have been one of his top differential diagnoses. I will follow your advice and wait until after the bx to begin eating gluten free. I'm fairly certain of the diagnosis at this point because 4 days of no gluten has made a difference. I feel somewhat stronger, nowhere near as anxious or irritable, urinating every 2 hours instead of every 30 minutes to an hour and much less nausea.  If anybody has any other words of wisdom, advice, really anything, please let me know..I'm kind of alone in this.

      Not sure if this is Celiac or just a gluten-free intolerance

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Yes, some people with Celiac do react to quinoa.  I know i do.  Apparently, two different "breeds" of quinoa can stimulate the immune system. Read here... Variable activation of immune response by quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) prolamins in celiac disease https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22760575/#:~:text=Cultivars Ayacuchana and Pasankalla stimulated,for patients with celiac disease. And some of us react to corn (maize) as well. Maize prolamins could induce a gluten-like cellular immune response in some celiac disease patients https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24152750/   P.S. @Brook G have you thought about getting a genetic test done for known Celiac genes?

      People who are Celiac don't have a gluten response to Quinoa, but some people who are gluten intolerant do.  I react to quinoa just like I do to gluten.  Freddies/Kroger came out with their own gluten-free Bread and I didn't think to read the ingredients.  I couldn't figure out where I would have gotten gluten in my diet until I read the ingredients in their bread... QUINOA
