do you have reactions to nut oils, too?

not peanuts. but the others
12:43 am

and marzipan.. etc
12:43 am
rururocks
walnuts are the worst and pecans
12:43 am

Walnuts and I'm just about gone
12:43 am

peanuts are a legume, not a nut.
12:44 am
VolleymomDee
the oils are really tricky... restaurants really tend to lie about that. I don't have an allergy yet, but I am very sensitive to MSG... have ended up in ER with horrific pain... and now it is in everything.
12:44 am
VolleymomDee
True, that, mixi... my bad.
12:45 am
rururocks
that is really true dee. stay away from packaged soups.. they are loaded with MSG.. and have it under another name
12:45 am
rururocks
canned soups especially
12:45 am
VolleymomDee
almost was banned from foods about 10 years ago, and then restaurants and groceries lobbied to keep it... extends shelf life about 15 years ...

MSG gives me devastating headaches
12:47 am
VolleymomDee
headaches and tears my digestive system up... takes days and days for me to get back to normal, if I accidentally ingest it
12:48 am

not as bad as not breathing though... I bet you must get nervous every time you eat out

MSG is scary. They hide it under so many different names. It gives me screaming headaches too.
12:50 am
rururocks
I was crystal clear to the server too..
12:50 am
rururocks
MSG should be banned
12:51 am
Kamanjah
Totally agree!
12:51 am

I totally agree it should be banned.

can i just upset the apple cart a little? Well, dislodge the apples perhaps lol. It's regarding the MSG convo u were having earlier. Apparently there is no medical evidence to show that MSG has ANY harmful effects
1:08 am
rururocks
it does to me worzel
1:08 am
VolleymomDee
not true according to my doc... many studies have linked it to digestive issues - cramping, diarrhea, ill-effects if you have IBS
1:09 am
VolleymomDee
our hospital's ER has treated many people with bad reactions or sensitivity to it ...
1:09 am
Kamanjah
Definitely not true, even my hubby knows to ask at a restaurant because I am absolutely stuck in bed the next day with the most massive headache.
1:10 am
jillibus
IBS?
I wonder if MSG has anything to do with stid's frequent migraines.
1:10 am
VolleymomDee
irritable bowel syndrome
1:10 am
jillibus
ah, ty dee.
1:11 am

I have researched it via a Guardian newspaper article. In 1968 a Dr Kwok wrote an article saying that he suffered from strange cramps in the back of his neck after eating at a Chinese restaurant. MSGs had been in major use since 1942 and nobody had complained until 1968. In 1980 75 countries did a major study and all came to the conclusion there was no proof of anything. In 2002 the theory was put forward that it was down to psychosis or "you suffer what you are TOLD to suffer" - i.e the placebo effect. And to this day there is NO evidence that MSGs are harmful to you.
1:12 am
VolleymomDee
We will agree to disagree, worz :)
1:13 am
Kamanjah
Yep, will have to agree to disagree. One morning I woke up with the most awful headache and we tried to figure it out...ate at a new Korean BBQ restaurant the night before. Called them, yes, MSG in a lot of their sauces...
1:13 am
jillibus
phant -- torture
1:13 am
worzel
I agree Dee, fair enough. I only feel that I should put it out there that maybe psychosis is the issue. After all MSG is only salt and water added to a naturally occurring amino acid that is already produced in the human body.
1:14 am
jillibus
not psychosis, please! That's a disease.
1:14 am
hootowl
Nice to walk into this! I love Chinese food, but have to tll them NOT to use msg because is freezes my face.
1:14 am
hootowl
Not a real freeze but like a general nuumbness.
1:14 am
Kamanjah
But glutamates do weird things to people who have sensitivities. Therefore...
1:14 am
VolleymomDee
Mayo Clinic calls it a severe food intolerance.
1:15 am
hootowl
If it were glutamates it would happen with a lot of different foods. Mine is only when msg is used.
1:16 am
hootowl
And that's only in Chinese food. But most restauants don't use it anymore.
1:18 am
Kamanjah
Just had a discussion with my chiro about glutamates last week, he wants hubby off of all of them. Plus, MSG hides under many names, including soy products, hydrolized yeast and ... I'd have to look them up again, but I know them when I see them on a label.
1:19 am
hootowl
Well I cook Chinese all the time and have no problem.
1:19 am
VolleymomDee
interesting website and FB page re MSG: https://www.facebook.com/MSGTruth and http://msgtruth.org/
1:20 am

And when I do go to a restaurant I ask before. No problems.
1:21 am

Have to wonder if it is so many things, I probably have no problem because I cook!

1:54 am
Lizlin
Hi Peach - wish I could help, but sorry, can't.
1:54 am
Lizlin
Other than suggesting copy and paste, but that sounds too obvious.
1:54 am
meliae
Should be an add words to list I am on my Kindle, trying to remember
1:55 am
meliae
At the top
1:56 am
gapeach
I have none of the words on Lickety or My Word List.....I added a few but lost over 100.
1:56 am
meliae
I can get up and look in a few waiting for meds to kick in.
1:57 am
gapeach
Oh, thanks meliae.
1:57 am
meliae
Oh dang if they are totally gone from both I am afraid they are lost in cyberspace
1:57 am
Lizlin
Yikes! That sounds like they're totally lost!
1:58 am
gapeach
Oh well, thanks for checking. I will just put in some words now.
1:58 am
Lizlin
If you pasted them before, perhaps they're still in the paste memory and you could try repasting.
1:58 am
meliae
Did you refresh?
1:59 am
gapeach
Yes, meliae.
1:59 am
gapeach
I don't know how to paste, Liz.
1:59 am
meliae
They auto enter when you use lickity no pasting needed.
2:00 am
Lizlin
I use my word list and then copy / paste. I use a Mac, so don't have the programme, which enters automatically.
2:00 am
gapeach
The orange places on Lickety won't come up....they are grey.
2:01 am
meliae
Hmm close the whole window and reload from scratch
2:01 am
Lizlin
You could try turning everything off and turning on again - perhaps it will restore.
2:01 am
gapeach
Where it says "send words to clues and send words to babble'.
2:01 am
meliae
That is what I was thinking too Liz.
2:02 am

Thanks, Lizlin, I will try that.
2:02 am

Great minds! Good luck, Peach. I'm off for a while. BBL
2:12 am

3:11 am
grannyrose

Lizlin
Lol! They'd have to see it then.

puglet

4:50 am
sprite
hi sweetie :) Am so happy with your news, rose. So glad you had a good doctor there.
4:51 am
grannyrose
yeah....he was very interested in the fact that workcover will not come to the bargaining table.
4:52 am
sprite
good. He might give you some ammunition to use in the further proceedings.
4:53 am
grannyrose
and i have made a decision...if this fo4 of mine is still swollen tomorrow, i am off to my doctor. i am pretty concerned. i have also had small bouts of breathlessness.
4:54 am
sprite
good decision, rose. Not good signs, that. We need you healthy, darling.
4:54 am
grannyrose
he was very straight forward. and said that given my co-morbidities, i really have to accept my days as a critical nurse are pretty much over.
4:55 am
sprite
not an easy thing to hear, sweetie. But the truth, as you already knew. *hugs*
4:56 am
grannyrose
that's what i meant about him being so good. no pussy fo4ing around\. these are the facts. these are your options.
4:57 am
sprite
just what you need. And what your work needs to hear. You ready to sue them yet?
4:57 am
grannyrose
yes, hun. hence the decision to go to the union lawyers.
4:58 am
sprite
very good. Am keeping my fingers crossed for you. Also not an easy road to travel, alas.
4:59 am
grannyrose
sprite. i am so NOT a litiginous person...but i feel my options are running out. i have to survive for at least another 20 years.

5:19 am

ah good. It may have become necessary for him (and you!) to be taken care of outside the home.
5:20 am

5:30 am
crosshair
not to bad. was reading back a bit and am sorry you have having problems with your employer re; you current disabilities, rose:(
5:31 am
crosshair
I am guessing that "workcover" is much like our disability protection
5:32 am
grannyrose
ah well, crossy, i will get by, mate. i have tried being the nice person...now i'm about to get mad....
5:32 am
grannyrose
is that related to injuries/sickness from work?
5:32 am
crosshair
and they(your employer) are hunting for a doctor who will just say " yes, she can work) no matter the reality
5:34 am
grannyrose
ever heard of hen's teeth or rocking-horse poop? that's how many doctors there are who are going to say that...
5:34 am
crosshair
yes, when you are disabled, due to an injury at work, you are not only taken under the wing of workman's conpensation while injured, but if your injuries are deemed severe enough, and of a permanant nature, you may qualify for a disability pension
5:35 am
sukee
Good morning
5:36 am

Google map distances are a lot like the formulae you use for home renovation costs: in this case, take the estimated travel time, deduct one hour for short cuts, green lights and other helpful traffic patterns. Now take the remaining travel time and double it and you will be close.

Ha. Map Quest is much the same, Crossy.

lol crossy - couldnt use mapquest because they did not recognize the address.

I think the delay were construction and traffic on the way in. So I took a different route home - actually going into Ontario a bit- to get around Montreal. Longer but no traffic or construction. But got stuck at the border for over an hour.
