Premature and slightly drive by posting..

Donna, Donna, what?! Only plums off your trees to eat? Geez, someone get that girl some food!!

Okay that was after two pieces of chicken, a whole bag of organic veggies and an apple...but I WAS STILL hungry, lol. Gee, I wonder why I have 10 extra pounds on right now. :lol::ph34r:

So glad to be back on here tonight. This is dinner conversation: Me: So, did anything interesting happen today? Dh: Well, I had pepper steak for lunch. Me: Nothing else ? Dh: Oh, yeah, this was weird, the cashier asked me if I wanted a five or five ones for change! I thought, well it doesn't matter, so I told her a five. Geez. Me: Wow, Honey, you really like to live on the edge. Ds: You two are soooo nuts. I am so excited, I almost fell off my chair. I literally am falling..ASLEEP here. :lol:

So, you see why I love Rachelville so much!!!!

OH GAWWWWDDD!!!! :lol:

Our distinguished president has called for a time out, and I'm happy to oblige.

Besides, I have to get dressed for a wedding.

Good night, fellow lunatics. Sleep well.

I don't post much on this thread, but it takes me SEVERAL times a day to catch up with the postings. It looks like "The Dave" has been entrapped with Rachelville and he also does not want to miss anything.

Rachel, my compounding pharmacy is able to make me the RX, but the ingred is on back order and they hope to get it this week. Can't wait to start it. Is it still helping you.

:) Mango/Meredith I see you!!! Where are the koalas? I really need to know --Is it true that they smell like cough drops? Hey, look we have a village idiot-meet The Dave, lol

Sorry, I'm posting. I can't help it. This is really bad. I have a job for the next week that basically involves me, in a room by myself, with a big computer, a set of instructions, and...oh no...internet access! Don't worry though, I'm very skilled at hanging out in Rachelville while simultaneously getting work done :ph34r:

Okay I should sign off for a bit before they all start wondering why I'm laughing in here. :ph34r:.

Ummm...we already have one of those rooms....for you know..anyone that might get a little "wacky". Julie and I decided it was a must for Rachelville in light of recent events. The room is padded and also contains a straightjacket...although I think the straightjacket is currecntly occupied by Miss Karen...until the full moon has passed. ;)

ahem, yes...our fabulous auxigro protective geese weren't on their guards.

Good luck Carla eating out at Maggianos, lucky you- yum! I hear they are great about celiacs. Tell us all about it tomorrow.

I'm feeling a little sentimental, maybe it's the moon.......probably cause I'm PMSing.

:ph34r: too much information....

No, dear city boy, our geese are very well-mannered. But I have seen a duck going around yelling AFFLAC on tv. :P:P:P

You mean the Court Jester - I mean the Village Idiot? He's too cute to be labelled an idiot!

Can he maybe be the town firefighter? Or the town "shirtless construction worker"? ;)

The naked thing was Karen's idea... I think that's why she's in a straight jacket right now....

      You might consider asking for a referral to a RD (Registered Dietician) to help with food choices and planning a diet. Even apart from any gluten issues, you will likely find there are some foods you need to avoid because of the shorter bowel but you may also find that your system may make adjustments over time and that symptoms may improve.

      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area. You will need to focus on consuming foods that are nutritionally dense and also probably look at some good supplements. If indeed you are having issues with gluten you will need to...

      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes...

      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area. You will need to focus on consuming foods that are nutritionally dense and also probably look at some good supplements. If indeed you are having issues with gluten you will need to educate yourself as to how gluten is hidden in the food supply. There's more to it than just avoiding the major sources of gluten like bread and pasta. It is hidden in so many things you would never expect to find it in like canned tomato soup and soy sauce just to name a few. It can be in pills and medications.  Also, your "yellow diarrhea, constipation and bloating" though these are classic signs of a gluten disorder, could also be related to the post surgical shorter length of your small bowel causing incomplete processing/digestion of food.

      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes inflammation and produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood by specific tests like the TTG-IGA test you had. Over time, if gluten is not withheld, this inflammation can cause severe damage to the lining of the small bowel and even result in nutrient deficiency related health issues since the small bowel lining is organ where all the nutrition found in our food is absorbed.  The other is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just "gluten sensitivity") which we know less about and are unsure of the exact mechanism of action. It is not an autoimmune disorder and unlike celiac disease it does not damage the lining of the small bowel, though, like celiac disease, it can cause GI distress and it can also do other kinds of damage to the body. It is thought to be more common than celiac disease. Currently, we cannot test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out to arrive at a diagnosis of NCGS. Both disorders require elimination of gluten from the diet.  Either of these disorders can find their onset at any stage of life. We know that celiac disease has a genetic component but the genes are inactive until awakened by some stress event. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% develop active celiac disease. The incidence of NCGS is thought to be considerably higher. I hope this helps.
