I've now found the caused of my recent Esophagus flare up's! Last week I brought from Morrisons some ready made hummus as a dip to have with some sliced cucumber or salads. Well after a few days of horrid pain which I managed to get under control flared up again after having a small amount of hummus wrapped in some very lean ham for lunch yesterday! The combination mixture of the oil, chickpeas, garlic and Thani paste are now band from my fridge👎👎
My fingers are now crossed my Esophagus is now on the mend! 👍👍👍
If I only, maybe Donavan or Ray Davis from the Kinks could join me?
Teach praised me last night in front of the class! He said I'd improved and listened to what he said from my private one to one lesson the day before ! How cool was that! Practice! Practice ! Rock Chick will get there 🎸🎼..... slowly does it!
Blummin heck David! I know you've socialised with the best but you had me going then! I loved Ray Davis back in the 60's and 70's ,Amazing voice !
Not sure about teacher's pet but he did make me feel on a slight high !😊
He's 31 with really long dark hair, funny as hell and a real dare devil! Rock climbs every week, plays in a band , teaches at another school and burns the candles at both ends by teaching others in his spare time.... lol
Since early 70’s he’s been going to see them in Chicago. Then saw Ray solo and Dave solo before and after stroke. Has all their albums, 45’s etc. and t shirts. Lol I’ve gone with him over the decades but not every time.
Hi Trish, he's just following the yellow brick road 🤑🤑🤑, don't forget his brother 🎸🎸🎸,😉😉😉,
David
So you can no longer ab-Zorba the Greek. Yamas. 🤔
Windex should keep me on track .... get it....????lol
You've all just made me chuckle.
Going back to hummus our son Mike is really bad if he has it, bad stomach ache and terrible IBS amongst his other problems. He can't have garlic, onion or chick pea, plus many other things too. Love and hugs Lynne xxxx

It's been off his list for a while, now. How are you feeling tonight ? Love and hugs Lynne xxxx
Semolina - yuk. I didn’t read the article at all - just the headline. Reading would be a bit much for me 😁especially at this time of night 😁. Actually I am just reading about septicaemia - is that the same as semolina?
Wow! I do wonder now whether there was a connection. Well at least my symptoms have now stopped and the left over went in the bin for collection yesterday.
Hi Trish I am glad you've found out. You can make your own hummus using just chick peas and leave all other ingredients out especially raw garlic. Find the best recipe for this on the daily mail website. If you use tinned chickpeas make sure you wash them thoroughly. Otherwise make your own from scratch. However chickpeas itself could be the main culprit for your misery. All the best.
Cheers Megbird for your lovely message! I may have a go at making my own as I have noticed numerous recipe's,, however, I'm weighing up the discomfort against a low fat yoghurt dip and I think my dips may win this one hands down!
I'm going to miss the taste of the hummus but hey ho .... no pain wins !
Thanks for your reply. I am doing ok just about. I have few things nagging me at the moment. I hope that i will be fine soon. I am trying my best watching what i eat. Going for an hour walk right now. I have a painful/discomfort toe over the past 3years and it is getting worse every winter. Been to my GP for it. Nothing they can do about it. Apart from being adviced to buy toe support/separator. Nightmares. Have a nice day
Oh blummin heck, painful ! Do you suffer with gout as that's very painful and normally affects the feet!
I have heard that eating lots of celery helps the circulation in your toes and taking daily turmeric is also brilliant for the joints! I'm about to start taking turmeric daily to see if it relieves the inflammation in my knee's!
Enjoy your walk !
Love Trish x

You can't miss gout just a tad more than a little pain / discomfort. You can't even allow the bed sheet to touch it. Acute attack usually overnight so as soon as you put your foot to the floor its like being hit with 40,000 volts.
No walkies, can't drive.
For info. My son thought he had it GP says flat feet. Going for full assessment on Fri @ Foot clinic.
On the ball Nod. Left ankle for me odd ball. Doc has kept me on tabs despite being alco free. I'd prefer to ween myself of any non essential meds. I'll ask him again @ 4 bells.💊
What do u mean? what do u mean? Went to Doc for chesty cough. Was gona ask again bout gout meds he's kept me on Allopurinol tabs. Don't think I need them now. No alco no pain. Rather keep essential meds & bin it
My son was diagnosed with flat feet and was given plastic insole to wear in his shoe's after plaster casts had been taken of both feet when he was around 10 at the time!

Yip I purchased some for our big wee son & got him the Podiatrist appt. Their doing a full test 1 hr ish. Child has to wear shorts.😁
I don’t believe you - you were taking the piddle out of SL weren’t you - never mind your short hand - bet you don’t even know who Greggs is. And no the answer is NOT a bakery 😛
It is not gout. It is a second toe from left (from my small toe) on my left foot. All started by wearing these old white wedges 3years ago. I went to a Radio Music festival in London. Gosh the pain on both of my feet made me leave just after 2 hours. It was a sunday evening so all shoe shops were closed. I left the festival and went home. That it is how it started and that was the end of me and the old white wedges.x
Hello, esophagus pain, how you describe it? Since Sunday I feel like something obstructs my throat, pain swallowing and chest pains when swallowing. Just wandering ... Thank you and all the best.
