Just back from Las Vegas, and just wanted to inform my silly friends that BETTI the YETI is alive and well in Las Vegas. Yes, indeed. I saw ONE slot machine in ONE casino called Betti the Yeti, so in honor of my friends here in sillyville, I had to play it. True to the gist of what I've read here...Betti the Yeti was not good to me! :angry::lol:

Welcome Back Donna! Sorry to hear Betti was not a good friend.....I have not had luck at our casino either.....

An Irish woman of advanced age visited her physician to

ask his advice in reviving her husband's libido.

'What about trying Viagra?' asked the doctor.

'Not a chance', she said. 'He won't even

take an aspirin.

'Not a problem,' replied the doctor. 'Give him

an 'Irish Viagra'. It's when you drop the Viagra

tablet into his coffee. He won't even taste it. Give

it a try and call me in a week to let me know how things

went.

It wasn't a week later when she called the doctor, who

directly inquired as to her progress. The poor dear

exclaimed, 'Oh, faith, bejaysus and begorrah! T'was

horrid! Just terrible, doctor!'

'Really? What happened?' asked the doctor.

Well, I did as you advised and slipped it in his coffee

and the effect was almost immediate. He jumped straight

up, with a twinkle in his eye and with his pants a-bulging

fiercely! With one swoop of his arm, he sent me cups and

tablecloth flying, ripped me clothes to tatters and took me

then and there passionately on the tabletop! It was a

nightmare, I tell you, an absolute nightmare!'

'Why so terrible? asked the doctor, 'do you mean

the sex your husband provided wasn't good?'

'Twas the best sex I've had in 25 years! But sure

as I'm sittin here, I'll never be able to show me

face in Starbucks again!

:o:o:o Em and I better watch out! :lol:

so. Was I too harsh? Should I have gone with him anyway?

I'd have been miffed...you had talked with him about it last night. I'm thinking the two biggest water using items isn't a new thing either...can't have been the first time that issue has come up. I think miffed was appropriate! :lol:

Yeah, yeah, that what they all say! :lol:

Welcome back, Donna :D

Jess--Considering that you two had spoken about the water situation before and given his snippy reply this morning, I don't blame you for being ticked off. I'm thinking you feel somewhat badly for not going to his hearing with him, but if he felt so strongly about you going with him, I would think he'd have handled his side of the exchange a bit differently.

Is he usually like that? Maybe he was nervous?

Nope! But I did manage to come home with money, lol! And, considering how much the food has gone up in a year or so since we were there last, that's kind of amazing, lol.

We DID play enough to get two free buffet dinners at the Wynn (a most EXCELLENT buffet), which would have cost us $35 each.

He is never ever wrong. I am always inappropriately emotional when he acts like a jerk just does what every normal person would do.

Have fun you two (or is it 'hope you're having fun'?, what time is it there anyway?)

Very kurius

My sweetie proposed to me in N.H. .... :)

Laura and her sweetie :wub:

Oh....I believe I mentioned the free alcoholic beverages from 5:30 to 7;30 in our lovely hotel lounge. Well, after sitting at the bar for a while, chatting with the lovely Americans around me, I brought up....yes, it's true....ANAL GLANDS.

Then the Yeti. (DH and children LONG GONE, as you can imagine)....

I began chortling unabashedly. These guys tried to figure out why I was bringing these things up....then, I am certain, just thought, "Hell, this is one pissed Canuck chick.....Northern yetis and their anal glands?? I am SO outta here".....

And off they staggered to the lovely Australian tourists at the table close to the bathroom... :lol::lol:

:lol:

So the fairy waved her magic wand and poof!...the husband became 92

years old.

The moral of this story: Men who are ungrateful bastards should remember

fairies are female.....

:lol::lol:

Ah, yes... That's the Waiting-For-You-to-Leave-So-I-Can-Poop Silence. Sometimes I just wanna yell... "Just poop already! You're gonna give yourself a hemorrhoid!"

yes, the shy bowel, or, more popularly known as our newest ban, Shy Sphincter and the Reluctant Floaters.

Yes, the shy bowel

Jess, I agree with what everyone else said. Given you discussed it the night before, I can see why you would be more than irritated, and then his reply seemed to be one of that he didn't really care, or worse, you were overreacting. Maybe he just wasn't thinking because of the stress of the interview?

Amanda, I'm sorry to hear you are still having trouble breathing :(

Oh..... ... . . . . :):):wub: !!!

Wow.

So. I have just had the fortunate opportunity to meet, in the flesh, THE most meet-able, rewardingly kind, phunny member of this phorum. Think of everything you would imagine Patti to be like in real life.....well, it's all there: lovely, patient, listens to everything (I mean everything - - oh, gawd...) you say, informative, hilarious....yep, just too much. :lol::lol:

Patti will be first to get the pics up, as I do not have my USB cord with me. Be ready....hold one another... .. .. :lol:

And Mark!! OMG......Charming and hilarious. Jack cannot stop commenting on how phunny this man is - - direct quote - - "Mom, Mark paid attention to everything I said, and he even kept looking at me in my eyes. That is rare, and it made me feel great!" :)

We lured the Pattis from Starbucks to our open house at the hotel, and furthered our amazing chatter on the patio with wine.

Now, everyone...Patti, I know, probably wasn't feeling the best, as she has her blood work tomorrow and mentioned she wasn't 100%. But I just keep thinking, MAN, what in hell is she like when she's ON?

Thanks SO much, Patti, for welcoming me to your beautiful neck of the woods, especially when you likely weren't feeling terrific. :wub:

If you guys ever get even a remote chance to meet this great woman in person, do whatever it takes!

I did NOT wear me bib. But a couple of the pics taken are of just our breasts, and you will have to guess whose are whose. :o

      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.

      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.
