:lol::lol:

OMG. . . . this reminds me of a rumoured account of Anne Boleyn's eyes and mouth contorting a fair amount after her head had been lopped off her body, for a long enough time that many in the throng noticed and dutifully vomited and/or passed out. This would make sense, I suppose - - muscles contracting or releasing . . .. . but perhaps she was trying to say something in those fateful eight seconds of waning consciousness. .. . ... .

. . . What would she have had to say?. . . . .

"I'll be back. . . ....Watch for me. . . wandering the tower halls .. . . . .wi' me 'ead tooked underneath me arm . . . ".....

Methinks Anne Boleyn was trying to say, "Henry- YOU ARE AN ARSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

I never pulled tricks on Halloween, I was too busy trying to get candy.

Last year, however, someone did toilet paper the trees out front of our house. I was coming home and noticed it, and thought to myself, "Is that Charmin? Charmin Ultra Strong? Ooooo boy, if I was your momma you'd be DEAD, BOY!!!!!"

Or girl....

Is it sad that I recognized the brand?....... And type?........

:(

Quite the entertaining sillie, no less. That was freakin funny. I wanna know how many heads they had to chop off before they came up with that number. How do you get people to sign up for a test like that?

"Hey, uh, we know we're supposed to do the needle thing, but we're goin old school and we're just gonna chop your head off and see how long it takes for you to die!"

Did they have electrodes hooked up or something?

tom Contributor

I've come to realize there may be a snag in counting sans lungs.

**New Plan!!**

Perhaps they just took an average, over the span of a couple of centuries, of the amount of time the eyes and mouths twitched and grimaced after separation from the host body, and it ended up being eight seconds.

Yeah, that sounds good.

Revolting, and deeply disturbing, but good. . . . . . . :lol:

Hey!!!

I'm watching Larry King...he's got Michael Moore on, and is taking call-in questions. A woman just called with a very sexy voice, from CLOVIS, California, and asked a brilliant question about Obama's campaign.

Sooooozie!!! Was that you?????

Where is Susie, anyways?

curlyfries Contributor
Where is Susie, anyways?

I was just thinking about posting that very same question.

Good to see Tom with his sillie on...........must be where mine went.

Don't know what I've done to myself, but my face is breaking out and a feeling of gloom and total irritability has overcome me.

Hmmmmmm.....just realized I've been out of vitamins for about a week. Can that possibly be it?

I think gloom, irritability & a general unease (and hmmm . .. .others not coming to me) are what I used/monitored to discover which vitamins, for the most part, were worth taking.

So that's where she is! I have to check in over there, I always forget :lol:

Hmmmmmmmmm :mellow:

I might have to try them myface places someday . . :huh:

Until then, consider it safe to assume I've been sending drinks to all throughout the day .. . .EVERY day! :wacko:

      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.
