The Twa.

I LOVE THIS! The little Twa people. 'Tis excellent, yes it is........... .. :lol:

Ummmmm..........what happened to all the Twa? :ph34r:

curlyfries Contributor
The system failed around 3:23 pm (Pacific time) on Friday, November 21. Efforts to recover the database were not successful, and the board was restored from a backup taken around 1 am Pacific time on Friday.

Posts made during that period of about 14-1/2 hours are permanently lost, as are any personal messages sent during that time. Personal messages that were sent before the backup which you read on Friday will appear "new" and you will likely read them again as "new."

NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Yep, I am excited! :) But absolutely no one else in Psillyville is, quite understandably. .. . .... (POeter? I know you don't follow the NHL........how about the Argos?)

And yes! Depending on how and where the Twa have settled throughout Burundian history, the numbers may fluctuate.......say, 3 -8%.........

:lol::lol: Indeed.. . . . ...

Well, I guess we shouldn't hold our breath......(breathS?) :huh:

. . . Do lemurs have opposable thumbs?? . . . Are they technically capable of booby trapping a scuba gear link?? :ph34r: Are the lemurs behind the emoticonage reduction??

Well, they don't have opposable thumbs, but these Burundi lemurs are the variety that can fly.. . . ...the only ones in the world that can do so - - glide great distances from tree to tree. This MUST be significant. And what of Sam Hill Manhead? I haven't noticed him flying....but he does scuba. He also knows not a SPOT of trivia - - sat at our empty seat at World Trivia Night, and was of absolutely no help. Got some passersby laughing, though. Will post the pics. . . . ..

      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

      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.
