Is This Some Kind Of Joke?

OMG - What a day - and it's only 2pm here. Edited: 3pm - not 2pm.

First, I wake up this morning with what I'm sure is a shingles outbreak, so I call my PCP. She's not in unitl tomorrow. As the day progresses, so does the pain, and so does the rash, but I did start anti-virals, so I've got that going for me.

Then, my husband calls me. There's been a bomb threat adjacent to his office ! The FBI is there. What next? Now, I have to sit here, wondering if he's safe ... wondering if I'm okay. The threat is for Friday, and he's not going to work, but until then, he's there. Oh, this is not good. Deep breath !

Thanks for listening.

I managed apartments in Houston back in the 80's. One time we had a bomb threat and the feds came in to check it out. They decided it was a prank ... don't know how they knew. It was scary.

But, think of it this way, the suicide bombers give no warning ... the threat most likely is a false one ... but I still wouldn't be anywhere near there on Friday!

You're probably right. It generally doesn't ever come to fruition. It's been a day to contend with. I'm not freaking out or anything. I just didn't need this today.

Would there have been a better day for a bomb threat? :lol:

I hope you're feeling better soon. I'm sure this stress isn't helping your shingles at all.

Yeah, I'm not thrilled. :unsure:

I should go do something constructive. Maybe I'll make some gluten-free bread. Yeah - bread.

Atypical Bomber : Well, I don't have time to do it today - I have a teeth cleaning at 4. I think I'll bomb your place on Friday. Who would give advanced notice? :lol::lol:

My Dad says to me - Well, that's a very gentlemanly bomber. :lol::lol::lol:

I can't stop laughing - it's just been that kind of day

      Celiac Maybe a Possibility?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Yeah, but that's probably not where you want to eat, anyway.

      Anyone try this? No matter what the brand, probiotics have ALWAYS made me break out bad. I am hesitant to try this simply for that fact, but I ordered a 3 month supply. Any input would be appreciated. Wish me luck.

      Gluten free vitamins

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      @llisa, I am curious to know how much vitamin D you are taking and what is your plasma level in nmol/L or ng/ml what the doctor's target 25(OH)D is. Hopefully with the gluten free diet you'll be able to feel better.

      Yes, but if you had been avoiding bread because of the stricture, that might explain the negative result of the previous celiac antibody test.

      Hashimoto diagnosed over 20 years ago after my daughter was diagnosed and told me to get checked due to similar symptoms. Diabetes diagnosed same time. Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency this past summer. Celiac last Wednesday. Have been having the digestive issues for a couple of years, several doctors--thought we had it solved with the Creon. Then symptoms got worse. I have a theory about that. I have a stricture in my esophagus that has to be dilated every 6-8 months. When it is tight, I have trouble swallowing. Bread is one of the harder things to swallow, so I avoid it. Had the stricture stretched end of October and started eating bread again. That's about when the diarrhea, bloating, gas, and pain started getting worse. Went in for another upper endoscopy and dilation of stricture last week. (It had been so tight this time, he scheduled a second dilation one month after the first.)  I told him how miserable I'd been, and he did the small intestine biopsy. I know they did the blood test for celiac about a year or more ago trying to find source of my problems,  and it was negative.
