Likewise . . . I too have read every word and I too have no life . . .

Me either :P

Observation:

Joggers/walkers in big cities carry pepper spray to fend off muggers.

Joggers/walkers in the country carry a big stick to beat off the neighbor's crazy inbred dogs.

I find this to be true, also ;)

Did someone call cashew? Can I still be the cashew?

Can I be an almond? I eat so much of the stuff, I may turn into one anyway :lol:

:o Bev's Brain Back!? Run for your LIVES!!

:D

I may just paint a room!!!!!!!

I have painting to do, too. I'm still up to my yatta-bay in boxes and stuff, though. An obscene amount of stuff, I might add <_<

No, she's saying your apex is pointed!!

:lol::lol:

HEY!!!! Is she calling me ELLIPTICALLY shaped?? <gasp>

...Aye, with globose follicles.... :o:lol:

Actually, ellipses are quite complementary shapes. Now, Tom, if I'd claimed you were a rhomboid....now, them's fightin' words!

Tom, I just don't think you've come from that forest ... so are you now wanting to be a Brazil Nut after you already snubbed it?

Well . . . . I've read that the paperwork is a hassle, and the turnaround-time is a b!tch, but the option to launch the de-snubbing sequence is always in play.

Now . .. . .more info needed . . .. gimme some details on how closely that forest of your'n (yes, pronounced 'urine') follows the famously Fundamentalist Islamic "heaven" of 72 Virgins.

<tom believes they're the SAME 72 virgins for each and every suicide bomber, and that all 72 REMAIN virgins> HA! Take THAT ya moe-rons!! :P

If you ask her what she wants to be when she grows up, her answer is

Very early on, she said she wanted to be a coffee maker - I wasn't sure if this meant she wanted to work at Starbucks or she just wanted to be a small kitchen appliance.

:lol: :lol: :lol: But MAYBE she wants to be like Baroness Karen von Blixen-Finecke, and own a GIANT coffee bean plantation in Africa!!!!!!!!!! Yeah, that's the ticket!!!!!!! :P

I have painting to do, too. I'm still up to my yatta-bay in boxes and stuff, though. An obscene amount of stuff, I might add <_<

:lol: Patti said yatta-bay...........

do you need the dingos for ebay models? I can ship them by train......... ;)

Julie--I fell asleep last night before the show was over and didn't find out till this morning! I was surprised it wasn't Jenny only because Cameron is so popular on AMC. His dancing, I thought, was always a little "wooden". It just didn't flow.

I could use the dingos right about now--husband is a packrat! :angry:

I like Cameron on the soap, but not so much on DWTS.

One feels undervalued so she was crying and I guess (I am out of the loop) that this has been a long time coming since our new boss came. The woman crying actually is a very hard worker and I know she knows it. Not sure what all is going on but lots of whispering and tears and such......drama!

      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.
    • Ello
      I wish Dr’s would have these discussions with their patients. So frustrating but will continue to do research. Absolutely love this website. I will post any updates on my testing and results.  Thank you

      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.
    • Ello
      Yes this information helps. I will continue to be pro active with this issues I am having. More testing to be done. Thank you so much for your response.

      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.
