I say Poopy Cow with me kids. I have said it ONCE in front of diplomat students, and they all broke into hysterics. The one who was not laughing but merely smiling quietly and nodding was the Sri Lankan envoy, who told me later that if by "poopy cow" I meant a cow with diarrhea (excellent assumption -- gold star for vocabulary pick-up), it was a superb phrase, one of great portent. A cow with diarrhea in many East and South Asian regions is a very lucky omen.

I didn't ask him to elaborate, but I do remember looking somewhat like this :huh: and thinking, "Hell......how lucky is that for farmer Gupta or farmer Xiang? I should suspect they would have to be feeling fairly UNlucky with their lone cow at gastrointestinal odds".. . ......

But, he was adamant. A very lucky idea. . . ... :huh:

:rolleyes::lol:

Ok . . . off topic . . . :huh: . . . new topic?

On Monday I was asked to sub at work. I was late because a bird flew in the garage (I seem to leave the garage door open when I come in from the (school) bus stop on days that I work because I leave about 10 minutes later). Visualize an overweight middle-age women chasing a bird around her garage whilst holding a butterfly net. Also visualize said bird larfing. Finally got the bird out . . . off to work.

I normally work on Tuesdays, so coming in from the bus stop, the same bird (house wren) is at the entrance of the garage and when it sees me, flys out instead of in . . . thank goodness.

Today, with Smack home sick, I ran to the grocery store before my hubby left for work (excellent time to go, btw, absolutely no line at 7:30 in the morning). When I got home, hubby was out digging snow out of the path to the school buses as the snow plow that FINALLY came through at 10:30 last night blocked some previously shoveled areas. The garage door was open, of course . . . and inside was the house wren . . . :huh::huh::huh: . . . I'm being stalked by a small brown bird . . . :ph34r:

We love the house wrens, carolina wrens, etc, etc. Bet you never would have guessed that now, would you? Apparently the wren thinks you garage would make a lovely new home.....all safe and warm and cozy :lol::P . It will give up eventually when it can't get regular access. Nice of you to not lock it up in there :)

Gjiannet....could be worse...could be like an Alfred Hitchcock scene. Better yet, like the scene in the Mel Brooks movie (I think High Anxiety), where the birds are flocking and chasing the man down to poop all over him :lol::lol::lol: (I love Mel Brooks, too)

      Welcome to the celic.com community @Ello! You say you had a blood test for celiac disease after eating gluten for 2 weeks. Were you gluten free before that? Had you ever been officially diagnosed with celiac disease previously? You say the result of the blood test was 1.5. Can you provide the name of the test and the reference range for negative...

      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.

      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.

After eating all that wheat product my body exploded with all sorts of symptoms. I stop gluten ASAP. I am still in the healing process. I started having issues after my surgery.

      Welcome to the celic.com community @Ello! You say you had a blood test for celiac disease after eating gluten for 2 weeks. Were you gluten free before that? Had you ever been officially diagnosed with celiac disease previously? You say the result of the blood test was 1.5. Can you provide the name of the test and the reference range for negative vs. positive for the test? I ask because different labs used different reference ranges so scores without a reference range aren't very helpful.
