Sarah, your poor wee one! Large hivey things?! NO ONE deserves such yucky stuff, especially our Ez... :angry:

Ok, guys... catch up with ya later. Possibly at 3 am. <_<

Oh, I hope not......

So HEINOUS, my wisdom teef grew in, and they're crooked on the bottom now. My dad would not be happy......

Oh, gawd.....well, Sophie's dad will not be happy should this transpire....nor her mom.... :unsure:

I will be helping two to four kids read, grades K through 3, once a week. I am so excited.

Great stuff, Susie! :)

Does she have to wear a retainer for a while?

Yep. Alex, from your story I have decided to rivet it to her upper and lower palette.... :o:lol:

Hallo Sillies- Pooping in after a long day in NYC (Lyme doc) because once again, I found something that will crack (most) of you up......especially our mad scientist.

YOO HOO JESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Where are you?

It's Open Original Shared Link Someone gave my doc this Open Original Shared Link. Some of the other ones are hilarious (Open Original Shared Link and Open Original Shared Link would make lovely gifts.

I swear I'm getting my nieces stuffed germs! :lol:

Alex- Must remember to tell you about last weekend- was thinking of you while we were at the Cape!

Sarah- Just read your post- enough is enough! You guys need a break! Hope Ez is OK.

Sarah! OMG - another infection for Ez? :( So sorry. but OMG - PLEEZ call the doctor the INSTANT any kind of wretched rash or weird sore appears......my friend's niece had a near-death reaction to an antibiotic...I won't go into detail here but.....she was not expected to live, and did.

Don't worry, I will! In fact, I'm going to keep him naked as much as possible, just so if anything starts, I can catch it fast.

Awesome news on the tutoring gig!

Sarah- Just read your post- enough is enough! You guys need a break! Hope Ez is OK.

Yeah we do. :( Lately, I've been worrying that it's not going to let up, that he's going to turn into that kid from As Good As It Gets. :unsure: Plus a thousand other worries like, how am I going to go back to school when my child gets sick every other week? For that matter, how's he going to do in school next year if this keeps up?

All I can do is pray that the longer he's gluten-free, the healthier he'll be. That's how it worked for Lucas.

On the upside, I was finally able to get him qualified for NC's children's insurance. This is a massive financial relief-- we are disastrously behind in bills. The medical costs have been horrible.

But now that we have this (practically free) insurance for the kids, I'm wondering if I should see if our family doc will give us a referral to an allergist for Ezra. I dunno. What do you guys think?

All right, Patti! ...And a woman, too...this is a bonus in a GP, IMHO. :)

Even I agree w/ this. It's like there's more built-in compassion.

Arrrrrrrgh Sarah - strep too!? Bah!

Susie, the reading thing sounds great. I can imagine, if I tried it, goofing around w/ them too much & getting in trouble w/ the teacher. :ph34r::lol:

I had to chase the janitor down the hall one day during lunch hour because I realized I threw my retainer in the garbage and he had just collected it and combined it with the garbage from a few other classes. I had to search though the yucky garbage but I did find it.

Ewwwwww!!

Good morning all. It's 3:30 in the morning and I'm starting my day out right with a big cup of coffee and an exercise video on the tv. (They do work if you play them while your on the computer, right?) I don't know why they use those 20 year old, 80 pound skinny girls to do these. I'd be much more inspired by a 40 yo slightly dumpy woman with great balance. This one is particularly bad. This girls thighs can't be much bigger than my upper arms. oh well. maybe I'll have muffins for breakfast to counteract the trauma.

Sending good thoughts for traveling and sick kids.

when I was queen I banned all sickness....Patti???

Good Morning, Sillies......

YAY!! Today Al heads to The Sunshine State!! And Mickey!!

Don't worry, I will! In fact, I'm going to keep him naked as much as possible, just so if anything starts, I can catch it fast.

I often find myself saying this about DH when people ask about our plans for the weekend.... :lol::lol:

Hope Ez is better today, Sarah!

A fantastic show. I try not to miss it, and I guffaw throughout. Ptaum, you must try to find Corner Gas in your TV lineup, or online. Funnier and more clever, even, than MNIE.

OMGAWD- much excitement today! Ezra's birthday suit rash watch, traveling Alan's and Emily's nekkid DH (as Homer Simpson would say, "With sexy results" :lol: :lol: ! Oh and Amanda's new sandals- lucky girl. It's back to the high 40's and raining here. Good for hibernating bears like me who aren't quite ready.......yesterday in New York it hit 75. I wanted to rip my socks off but well, you know how clean the sidewalks are :ph34r:

Sarah- I sincerely hope that Ezra is OK (I love that name by the way-it's great!).

Emily- please make sure your husband doesn't get, well you know how he forgets where he is sometimes? Please remind him he is no longer a male stripper and if he's going to strut about, he does have to do it at home or......

FACE THE SPANISH INQUISITION!

And you know, no one EVER expects them :P

May Alan travel safely and have a great trip!!!!!!!!

I am alarmed by the wanton drinking of absinthe in this forum- aren't you only supposed to visit the Green Faerie occasionally? :lol:

And Jess WTH? Your day begins at 3:30 am?? I think I saw 3:30 am once in college and it was because I was still up. I think I turn into a pumpkin from midnight to 7 am. By 8 I'm a tolerable zucchini and by 9 I'm pretty much your average Bev. :P

Yeah we do. :( Lately, I've been worrying that it's not going to let up, that he's going to turn into that kid from As Good As It Gets.

No, he won't, because he has a hyper-vigilant mother who keeps and eye out, plus all kinds of smart pholks on this forum. :) You WILL get to bottom of it!

Yay! Not to ruin your joy or anything, but, I keep my toenails painted all year......and wear flip-flops nearly year-round as well.....

All right....why am I the only one who has telephone line problems here? Wasn't it just yesterday that I found myself here at the public library computers, checking my emails and this forum?

This is just the Rochester Dj's, they are doing kind of like a NBA March Maddness thing, so they started with 4 regions, each region had 8 teams. Now they are down to 4 regions with 4 match-ups. If he wins he will take on this morning show from a different station. He is neck in neck with the girl DJ, been like that all week. He is still in the lead as we speak. I hope he wins. He got pretty far.

Now here is the background on him, if you google his name you will see the sad story behind why he now works at my station.

To make a summary, he worked at a station in that area for 21 years at like a Pop station, I guess you call it that. In the fall, a new company bought that station and 3 others in Rochester, he along with 3 other long time DJ's lost their jobs. So in a shuffling of people at the station I listen to, he was hired not even a month ago....this is the same company who bought his other station and fired him. So its kind of sad he had to lose his job and all his time, but now he is back and he is still very popular. Anyway if you google it, it caused quite a stir of emotions up in Roc. Which I can understand.

But, to answer Susie's question...I refrained last night ;)

good girl!

I think this is what I get for being reckless "testing" chocolate & cookies. :(

No physical symptoms, just mental.

I should probably try to slog thru something productive - maybe clearing the desk area enough to set up the pc. Ugh, that'll require decisions on where to put stuff .....

Feeling a little bit better than earlier. Hopefully edging into having a little fun w/ replies this afternoon. :)

      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 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.
