I'm the same way, Julie.....I just don't feel as happy through our long, dark winter when we're getting so much less daylight. But at least we're not up in Whitehorse where MIL resides......man, I just don't know how she remains happy. From the end of November through to mid-March, the sun comes up at 10:30 in the morning, and is down by 2 pm..........gad....... :huh:

Life is so much different working at an elementary school........I miss the sarcasm and raging hormones :rolleyes:

But you just can't help but love the simplicity of life seen thru the eyes of a child.

As I was monitoring the kids getting off the bus this morning, a little girl.......probably first or second grade.......handed me a folded piece of paper and asked if I would put it in her backpack, which she still had on. As I was doing this, I asked her if someone had made her this paper airplane, to which she replied,....."Yes......I am a very lucky girl."

It sounds like it's still healing--a good sign :)

Lawrenceville is about 30 miles northeast of Atlanta. It's beautiful there, but I'm a yankee girl at heart and couldn't wait to get back up north.

I wonder if the inflammation is causing the heat :huh: That would be my guess.

I have slept a little better this week since I haven't been following the coverage as closely. I noticed this week's events don't seem to involve anything synchronized :lol::lol: ......unless I am missing something.

I should be living in Georgia............am a wackl southern gal at heart. (NOT, a southern belle, you'll note - more of a Ya Ya :lol; )

.......lived my childhood in Florida........my heart is still there. Hubby and I talk about moving south when we retire. Just give me sunshine, warm weather and beaches and I'm good.........don't care if I never see snow again.

One of me mum's favorite stories to tell........

When I was a kid we would go up to Minnesota (yaah...Minnesoootah)......to visit my grandparents. Mom would bundle up my brother and I and send us out to play. After we had built snow forts and such, we'd go back in the house......." and Marcus would come in all rosey-cheeked............Lisa would be blue!" :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.
    • 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.
