Holy crap, I was absolutely NOT meant to be at that tournament. . . . .the final game also ended in a shootout, and the Wildcats ended up losing it (i.e., Sophie let a goal in, the other goalie did not......SO thankful I was not there to see Sophie's phace after that heartbreaker). So, silver medal!! :):)

Must get a pic of her in full goalie gear. . .. ..she looks like a complete stranger, some big creature I've never seen before. . ... :lol:

Go Sophie!!!!!!!!!!! :D :D

Susie- I'm so sorry that your neck is out- OUCH! Hope you feel better soon. LOVE yer avatar :wub: :wub: :wub:

They TOTALLY snowed me!!

I was expecting cupcakes and coffee every morning, foot massages, someone to clean the catbox.

Harumph!!

Ba ha ha -YEAH RIGHT!

Okay, forget about the croutons for a moment. They're cooling in the kitchen.

I am so disappointed. The phantastic phullest moon of the year is tonight, the sun set forty minutes ago, and it is OVERCAST!. :angry: :angry: :angry:

Phooey.

Same here- I wanna seeeeeeeee itttttttt!

They turned out pretty well, but the garlic isn't as strong as we had hoped for. We think we know how to fix that next time. The true proof will be in the salad at dinner in a little while.

Sadly, I am not getting mooned, but Emily is. :D

Pieter- Yer croutons look yummers!!!!! I usually make them out of leftover bread. Remarkably easy and nothing like homemade croutons (weneedayumemoticon).

I've got that nasty cold that's been going around and lasting for like 2 weeks......it started 5 days ago. Me nose is trying to run away it's so red. Boogers! But I think me new drug is working (Lyme) I feel good things happening and bad things dying :D

Took Angus to the beach yesterday to run around with Kurt's friend's two Bernese Mtn Dogs. I was in heaven. Oh yeah, Angus liked it too :lol: :lol: And went out to dinner last night at PF Changs's (took my dad for his New Year's Chinese food a week too late) Got to see the goonies though :wub::D They warm me heart everytime.

Good evening! :)

I have psome psilly thoughts for Psunday evening.

Why do we drive on a parkway, and park on a driveway? :huh:

Why do people talk about their "PIN number" for the "ATM machine"? Don't they know what the initials stand for? And, "tuna fish," come on people. :huh:

What was the greatest thing before sliced bread? :o

And who is the psilliest of the psillies? Why, Emily. She is the top contributor to this thread, with over 3,300 posts. Over 80% of her total posts on the board are here. Em, you need to get out more often.

And, I wondered, where are the psillies, anyway.

The one farthest North is Nikki, with Jess in second place.

The one farthest East is also Nikki, with Bev in second place.

The one farthest South is Momma Goose. Sarah is next, but she hasn't been around much, so give an honoUrary second to Susie.

The one farthest West is Jess, with Tom in second place.

Nikki won twice. Hmmm.

And, yes, indeed, Jess is farther north than either Emily or me. She is about four degrees of latitude north of Markham, and two degrees north of Ottawa.

Okay, I need to get a life. :blink:

It is difficult to stay pserious in other threads.. . . . . . ....things often just strike me as so phunneee, hence I tend to scoot away before I get warned, or embarrass myself....

I think there's something wrong with me. . . . . . . . :huh::lol:

I went back to the start of the thread, and read forward, while making marks on a sheet of paper as to who was posting. I used a lot of paper, and it took a looooong time. Not!

In the index, where you can see the thread name, the number of views, and the number of replies, click on the number of replies. A window will open showing the post counts by member for that topic in descending order.

OMG! You can do this for any thread, and it can be revealing for a thread with a very large number of posts. ;)

      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.
