BAHHHH!!!!!!!!! busted by the emoticon police then.....

The bank have phoned me today to tell me that hubby\\\'s card has been \\\'cloned\\\' (very sci-fi) and that a person in India has very kindly taken it upon themselves to spend ALL our cash (and then some)

Either that or Terry has a secret double life in Mumbai :unsure: (he does look very tanned :blink: )

<_<<_<

Doggy thoughts were excellent :lol:

Um..........is it the \\\'roids? I thought they were supposed to make you HYPER and have energy (that\\\'s what happened the only other time I took them, and I got manic :huh: )

Yeah - they did with hubby but I think it depends how high your dose is.

Has the swelling gone down??? :unsure: (said the actress to the bishop)

:lol: Hemorrhoids - the mojo killer, to be sure. Had them once........... egregiously (h)anus.

OMG!!!!!!

Egregious!!!!

(having 3 children the old fashioned way will do that to a gal :rolleyes: )

TMI???? :lol:

Someone else who needs Gravol!

GAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!

Give it to ME!!!!!!

I am the worlds worst traveller (it\\\'s got slightly better with age) but OMG!!, my worst mode of transport BY FAR is on a boat.

Dear god!! ...many, many boat trips were had where I thought I was going TO DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You have NEVER seen anyone be soooooo ill (heinousity :angry: )

There was one particular ferry to France on a choppy sea that I for one shall NEVER forget :rolleyes:

A young man was considering marriage and was talking with his girl friend\\\'s father about it.

He says, \\\"I\\\'m in love with your daughter, and want to ask for her hand in marriage.\\\"

Her father says, \\\"I feel that I must tell you that my daughter has acute angina.\\\"

He says, \\\"Oh good, \\\'cuz she has no tits at all!\\\" :ph34r:

:lol::lol::lol::lol:

Love the way our Oracle leader just drops that HILARIOUSLY phunny joke in there ;)

Patti!!!

Every girl deserves a new shiny one :D

Busy day today - - The Ripper's first baseball game of the season this morning, then out to see you-know-who this afternoon! Stay tuned.....

Sounds exciting on both counts! Can't wait to hear all about it. :D

Considering where I work, surely you don't think I scare easily :P I have a feeling I'll feel right at home!!!! Sooo.... If this is my big day....do I get a party....or 100 Twinkies shoved down my throat?

Think fluids, Lisa ;)

OMGawd Nikki--thats horrible :angry::(

A number of years ago, Mark was the victim of identity theft. Someone got access to his personal information and opened an account in his name and proceeded to spend 10 grand in one day in the NYC area.

Lucky for us, the bank (who he at one time did have an account with) noticed the address they gave and the spending and alerted Mark.

Good luck sorting it all out :)

Heinous thieves :angry:

They are spongy I guess---the closest thing to it would probably be angel food cake, with a fluffy white filling. To describe it, it doesn't sound that exciting, but some people are addicted to those things :rolleyes: It's like one of those warm fuzzies from childhood memories. :D

Gnich, twinkies barely have the texture of food. Like a cross betw sponge cake & cotton candy. And creamy artificial filling in every bite.

So naturally, we loved 'em!

Vvvvvveeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrry squishy too - just keep pushing and one bite is the ONly bite.

. . . and if you happen to find one that was misplaced during your childhood . . . it's still good . . . they never go bad!!

I was a fan of DingDongs myself. Yet when I've had them as an adult (last time, two years ago) I've always been dissappointed. Don't know if they changed it or if my palate has matured . . . would be the only thing that has matured.

Where's Emily??? We need some doggie details!!! I think just leave the name Chelsie for a while . . . it will evolve into something else naturally . . . always does. Chelsie to Elsie to Ellie to Ellie Belly to Belly Dog. OK, just call her BellyDog.

BTW, looks like I need to have an avatar of my pets. I have a beautiful shepherd-chow mix named Zeus. Don't let the name fool you...he's the biggest wus you've ever seen. Among other things, he is scared to death of football games on TV b/c everybody gets excited and yells. As soon as he hears the pre-game commentators, he starts panting and goes into hiding :ph34r:

:lol: Zeus will fit right in with our motley crew here, bipeds and otherwise.

well.......sorry to burst YER bubble, Lisa......it's not much to do w/ drinking fluids.......more of an unexpected onslaught of fluids. Plumbing leak, floods, someone wetting the bed, dog peeing on the floor, lots of snot/mucous.........we always just say that you should have your tarps handy...... :unsure:

Emily has a SUPERB ginger cat!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

She does indeed. Ummm........have we heard about this cat before? I cna't remember....... :unsure:

Yes, very artificial, which is highly desired in a childhood junk snack. :lol:

....with more air :P

air, chemicals, fluff, many many more artificial ingredients. :blink: I, too liked the DingDongs and HoHo's in childhood.......had some a few years ago and they just tasted nasty - - just PURE chemicals nad nothing good.....

....not on a flood plain...no little ones at home, and I don't think DH or I will be having any bed-wetting or major snot/mucous issues that we can't handle....so that brings me down to about a 40% chance of a "fluid onslaught" <_< ...I guess I can live with that :lol:

      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...

      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.
