So i discovered a way to remove dark spots from my stainless steel silverware. I thought i could no longer use it due to it, and when my last spot free spoon became spotted, I decided to look it up. Apparently, if you make a paste with water and baking soda it removes them.

 

After a good hand washing, they (aka test spoon) look as good as new.

Hmmmm....

 

Patteigh is leaking (not my fault......anybody had a phlipover?)

Bughnee is bangin' Yeti

Emmm is a disappointed phlasher 

 

I'm still suffering the side effects of pneumonia. Better, but still tired. Gotta get a new chest x-ray in a couple of weeks.

 

And now the good news....

 

 

HAROLD IS GONE!!!!!!!!! :D

 

 

Let me explain.....( and I will start from the beginning for all the newer psillies).....I'll try to keep it as brief as possible

 

Four years ago this month my son came down with leukemia. It was soon realized that he also had a growth at his brain stem of unknown origin that was in danger of bursting.

 

I flew down to Houston to be with him and my husband rode his motorcycle down. <_< (I told him not to....I had a bad feeling)

 

(Now, I must add this part to give you the full effect of this life-changing event in our lives)......When he arrived in Houston, he was in an accident and lost his right leg below the knee. :o  I left my sons hospital to be with my husband at his hospital, returning a couple days later to find my son in a coma, which lasted 18 days. We almost lost my son during that time. :(

 

The doctors couldn't test the growth for fear of killing him so they couldn't find out what caused it. :unsure: They bombarded him with antibiotics, and either that or the chemo slowly shrunk the growth.....named Harold. :rolleyes:  It has still been around as a small, insignificant lesion since then. But now it is entirely gone. B)

 

My son went into remission near the end of that same year, but his numbers still have not been completely normal.

 

Well....his platelets are still a little low, but his white blood cell count is normal for the first time. ^_^

 

 

And then there's Harold..........farewell :)

      I was diagnosed 5 years ago. I also have celiac rash which is no longer an issue thanks to maintenance dose of dapsone.  I ate spinach with lemon juice  and had terrible pain after. My mother whom I suspect had undiagnosed celiac disease developed a duodenal ulcer that turned into a sarcoma late in life . My celiac clinic suggests seeing my family doctor.

      Welcome to the forum, @Tyoung! Apparently, folic acid in supplements is readily absorbed into the bloodstream as opposed to getting folate from natural food sources. So, high levels in the blood can happen quickly from supplementation: Your body doesn’t absorb folate as easily as it absorbs folic acid. It’s estimated that about 85% of folic acid from fortified foods or supplements is absorbed, while only 50% of natural folate from foods is used by your body. After folic acid is absorbed into your bloodstream, it’s broken down into smaller compounds by your liver. However, the liver is only able to process a certain amount of folic acid at a time. As a result, consuming too much folic acid from fortified foods and supplements can cause unmetabolized folic acid (UMFA) to accumulate in your blood. This doesn’t happen when you eat high folate foods. From: https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/folic-acid-side-effects#How-excess-folic-acid-develops I would think your folate levels will normalize over time. But I'm curious. Were you tested for vitamin/mineral deficiencies before being given supplements or was it just assumed you would have them after finding out you have celiac disease? Your acid reflux issues could certainly be a holdover from the week of supplementation now discontinued. Another possibility is "gluten withdrawal" which some experience in the first few weeks after going gluten free. Gluten has addictive qualities similar to opiates. Another possibility is certain polysaccharides commonly found in gluten free prepackaged facsimile foods. They use these polysaccharides (e.g., xanthan gum) as texturing agents to approximate what gluten does in wheat products and they are hard to digest. Let me caution you against long term proton pump inhibitor (PPI) therapy for the acid reflux. That simply raises gut PH (lowers acidity) which interferes with the absorption of vitamins and minerals from our diets. Way too often, docs will prescribe PPIs as a band aid for reflux and leave their patients on them forever. It's much better to use over the counter calcium-based remedies like TUMS to give you coverage as needed rather than treat reflux systemically with acid blockers.

      I was diagnosed in November with celiacs and at the time had been tested for multiple vitamin deficiencies. During that time my folate level was 4ng/mL, Although I was told to take supplements, I ended up only taking them for a week or so as they made my stomach upset. I had my blood work redone yesterday and as the results came in I noticed that most of my levels are now normal, but folate level is >24ng/mL. Has anyone else had similar results? If so were you able to figure out why or how to normalize them? I also have been having constant acid reflux since about two weeks into going gluten free (no acid reflux history prior to) that we are trying to get to the bottom of with no answers. Could that be related? Thank you!! Also wanted to not that I am not eating any gluten free processed food.

      Did you take a look at my pics that I uploaded?    These rashes is not itchy, but I have seen that people have this too that have celiac and it’s not itchy for them either. I have also heard that sulfur burps are a common things with celiac too.  Yes it can be something else too but it’s to much symptoms that I have that match with either gluten sensitivity or celiac.   Hopefully it’s just gluten intolerance and not celiac.  As I said before I have the gen type for celiac and diabetes typ 1 and the those diseases going hand in hand.    Thanks again Trent for your time to reply, and I wonder if any body else have kind of the same symptoms that I have?

      Welcome Connie Smitj,  Did you have a follow up test to see if the treatment for H Pylori was successful?  It's possible to catch it again, especially from a partner.  When I contracted it a second time my wife was tested and was positive for two of the bacteria in H Pylori.
