Then it would be the gluten-free Gert.

PTAOUGHMN!!

Hallo Sillies- As if I wasn't upset enough already about being demoderatorized :P<_< today just plain STUNK like a glutened celiac fart in a Dutch oven!!!!!!!!!!

Scott's message to me about this implies that if you are still active and want to be reinstated you can send him a message (PM?) and he will likely reactivate you.

Yes he can "reactivate" me but I have chosen no to cuz I'm scared. You wouldn't believe what I had to do to get activated :P:lol:

Had to be up and about early--my cutie-patootie plumber was here already....we sprung a small leak under the sink that he replaced in February. Turned out to be a defective seal, so he phixed it for phree. Woo-Hoo! :D

Ooohhhh...I could have used him today a cutie-patootie plumber!!!!!!!!!!!! Details to come.

One can use moderator "privileges" to do certain things? This could, surely, lead to abuse of one's position. Does one get forum lunches and company vehicles? What else, exactly, does the moderator status allow one to do besides read and post?....

Does a moderator get more emoticons? larger quotation quotas? Immunity from the "report" button? Hmmmmmm, what is going on?...... We little, ordinary members need to investigate all this.....

I did get busted at the moderator weekend in palm Springs this year for trying to bring the yeti into the hot tub ;)

I have thought about relocating to Arizona, my body would be a happy camper in the hot and dry there.

At least from November- April....Scottsdale or Sedona!

OK- I want some hugs here (no hubby to say "Oh, poor Bevvy" so you guys have to pitch in. I woke up this morning to a PICC line that sprayed out everything I tried to put into it (no alcohol-just sterile stuff). Not good :( . So I call my doc and he sys "No prob, they can be repaired" but will anyone up HERE repair one? NOOOOOOOOO. So into the hospital I go to have the old one removed and a new one put in. Just what I had planned on doing with my day.

POOPY COW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :( HARUMPH!!!!!!!!!!!!

Say that you are performing quite well at work, considering the amount of time you spend on an online celiac forum, pondering questions about wearing green, eating poop and tactics for avoiding jury duty.

You have two professional goals: To avoid completely the office pain-in-the-@ss that you've mentioned here, and....what else....oh, and to make more time to speak to your online friends.

There, that should cover it.

:lol: yes - but what about greater efficiency in making pressing decisions? such as - forehead rump vs. dangling chin feet or cleats vs. suction cups?

Thanks for all the suggestions Sillies! My goal is to spend more time in the Vortex.....I feel as if I have been neglecting my duties here! ;) Guess my boss wont want to hear that though?

:lol: who cares? who cares whatcher boss wants? IT"S YOUR SILLIES WHO MATTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:lol:

OMG - Kissey will be getting here at about 1 a.m. :blink: if all goes as planned, I will have been asleep for over two hours by then... dingo girl doesn't do so well without sleep.....I'm hoping he'll slip in unnoticed, and I can slumber away....................but unlikely.

TOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!! we have missed you...........

Hi all ... .just unreasonably depressed again but coming out of it I think.

Finished the humaworm yesterday. Nothing noteworthy came of that. Early on, it seemed to knock 10 or 20% off my goodness scale, so hopefully I get that back tomorrow.

And I'm 7 pages behind!!!!!!!!

Jury Duty! Ack! I only got called while living at the condo - longest term of residence for me so I'm thinking that's not a coincidence.

Figured I'd say "well, he wouldn't BE here if he wasn't guilty!" to get out of it. (Yes .. ..default defendant is male)

But, then considering that the notice didn't arrive by registered mail, I'd just toss 'em, knowing no one could prove I ever saw it.

3x I think.

BTW, some time after all that, my sister worked w/ the Clackamas County Court in Portland for a few yrs & said they only expect some low % to even respond. Maybe it was 20%?

Hi, Ptaoughmn! Hope yer silly's completely reinstated by tomorrow....

Sad that it's so difficult to get us, as a society, engaged in things like civic duty. I don't think I've ever heard anyone, ever, say, "Jeez...I wish I'd get an official summons for jury duty"....

:rolleyes:

      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
    • trents
      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. 
    • trents
      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.
