Orange Tongue at The Gastroenterologist

Also has no idea about the orange tongue. He seemed totally surprised by it. Thinks maybe acid reflux, maybe the tooth, maybe something else but not related to Crohns. The fact that terry also has an orange tongue was the real strange part. He kept referring to my UC, and I was like, "I thought I had crohns?" He now seems to think it is UC instead which I guess is better and I can cut the meds from 3 to 2 pills a day.

The doc gave me a script for a test called prometheus IBD Serology 7. "Helps identify IDB and differentiate between UC and CD. Includes 7 tests: ASCA IgA, ASCA IgG, Anti-OmpC IgA, Anti-CBir1, NSNA ELISA, IFA perinuclear pattern, IFA DNase sensitivity."

He also told me to try prilosec for a short two week stint to see if it helps with orange tongue and to rule out GERD.

I think I am finally at the point where I am just going to try acupuncture. I mean I have spent probably $200 in copays at this point and gotten nothing from western medicine. Maybe its time to try something else.

Wegmans gnocchi - yuck

The most disgusting gnocchi ever smelled. They smelled sour like rotten fruit. I tried to boil them anyways for some reason and the the whole kitchen smelled. Is that just what stuff with preservatives smell like or were they bad. Either way I would never buy them again. They smelled so much I had to take the garbage out after I through them out.

Scorpion Pose - Vrschikasana

Tonight at yoga I was able to sort of do the scorpion pose. I was a bit shaky though. I am going to practice more and get good at it. The people that are stepping on their own heads blow my mind.

I stole this pic from about.com I will replace it with one of myself as soon as I can get someone to take it.

I finally have an appointment for my orange tongue tomorrow but its at 7:45am near UB North Campus. I have not been up that early since the 90s.

Imagine this fun scenario

This probably won't make any sense but I will know what its about when I read it ten years later.

Imagine there is this self important, needy, gold digger who lives in your neighborhood. Not only is she loud and obnoxious, she also only speaks a foreign language with a irritating, sharp accent.

Then imagine all of a sudden, you find out she is possibly moving in with you and you may have to dedicate your life to her needs and wants. To make it worse she comes with this whole entourage of loud pimps and they are going to rip out the gardens you built and replace them with a asphalt pad and a vending machine which sells even more things that attract even more pimps.

Then imagine everyone around you saying, well if she lives with you, you no longer have the neighborhood restrictions on your property. You can rent the attic without a fire escape or even build a freaking waterslide out the front window. Would you hate her any less? What if it meant you had to give up english?

Osama is Dead?!

He is finally dead - they got him in Afghanistan. Apparently, it happened a week ago but they were waiting to confirm the DNA. Will this finally mean the end to war? Or is it only the beginning of vengeance?

Eternel Flame

Despite the rain we made it to the eternal flame at chestnut ridge. It was not lit and our small lighter wasn't helping. Next time we will have to return with one of the barbeque lighters.

Orange Tongue Continued

I think this might be the worst day of it ever. According to some reports I was reading it could be caused by a bacteria that produces melanin. They made it not sound very dangerous but I still hate it.

I can't believe it was barely present yesterday morning when I went to the dentist.

Nice weather for basra

The leaves are finally blossoming on the trees around my house. It seems to have take so long this year.

Interestingly, I put the tortoise out in the cold weather yesterday because he was going crazy inside after realizing there was in fact an outside.

I was hoping he would understand it was shitty outside. He ended up digging a hole and getting dirt in his eyes.

Hiking at zoar valley

Despite it being such a beautiful day there was barely anyone there.

I carried this freaking heavy 35 lb rock a mile uphill from the creaked to the car so that the tortoise could have a new basking rock. You can see it on (e:terry,54191)
image

It felt so great to lay out in the sun. I feel bad that (e:mike) had to work today.
image

Everyone things (e:matthews) pictures happen effortlessly but I had to move this giant log that was blocking the view.

image

Here he is taking the pic.
image

image

(E:terry) and I climbed up a new cliff. We had to leave (e:matthew) behind a bit because of his fractured rib. See if you can see him in the pic - he is a tiny dot. Its so hard to tell just how steep and far up this is from the pic.
image

image

This is the view from the top.
image

Apparently, fraking is still an issue at Zoar. I though they weren't going to frack but (e:terry) says it was just a temporary moratorium.
image

I love looking through tree roots at the creekbed.
