How pleasant and entertaining to wake up to a phlurry of posts from me sillies!!! :D

Mark and I went to Kohl's (sale on towels, I had 2 gift cards to use) last night after dinner and we stopped at Starbucks (natch) on the way home and the caffeine kept me up till 2 <_< Note to selph--don't do that again.... :P It had cooled to 95 by 8 o'clock--we're finding it's more comfortable to go out after dark.

It's so weird to me still that it stays so hot at night. I'll get used to it--it's just so novel this year. :rolleyes:

Leisough--sorry bout the garage sale :angry: So much work goes into setting them up and then to have a disappointing turnout ......bah! Have phun dancing today--no heels fer Brian!! :lol:

Nik--getting yer Sven on!! B)

Em, that par-tay sounds like such phun!! Can't wait to see some pics from that :P

Shroomie, me dear, take care of that elbow! Ouch :( We gotta get some of that sillie back fer ya :)

Soozle :wub: Such a rough time for you. Between the memories of last summer, the heat and the general warm weather doldrums.....I would love to read more of your thoughts if it helps you to write/get them all out. Do what you need to do to pheel better ;)

Sills--did you see me new pizza av?? I made that yesterday from a crust recipe I got from here. Phirst pizza wif CHEESE (real, melty CHEESE!!!) I've had in like 5 years :D Twas so freakin good :D HAD to take a pic to show youse guys!

However, Basenji's are suppose to be African barkless dogs and she is definitely NOT barkless. Also, I have never detected even a hint of an African accent.

Could she be... . . .Burundian?? :huh:

:lol:

Yes, Shrooooomie, that is rotten stuff going on with yer elbow. Take care o' yourself... .. . . ...

I would SO love to see an av pic of you with Farrah Head, as well as one of Brian in his stilettos. :lol:

The list of Nevers???

For me, I'll start with 'NEVER drink wine on an empty stomach'

That is a good one. Here is my current entry: "Never walk casually into a huge, private party of one hundred-odd Middle Eastern women in burqas as it seems more interesting than the party you are attending whilst wearing tattoos, a large red brassierre over one's lacy T shirt and blackened-out teeth".

Nope. Do NOT do this. I will not do this again.

:huh:

Hey psillies . . .. <weak wave> .. ...

Day3 of no coffee here. :angry:

Haven't gotten the tight headache I had last time I went coff-free, but unsure whether that's a good thing. :unsure:

Maybe if I were feeling some sort of withdrawals it'd mean something's changing?

Anyway . ..blah .. ...been wondering if I've become intolerant to something I've thought of as safe for years.

Better not be lemon juice, garlic or olive oil!!!

So, I've tried 2 wks egg-free, no change. Redbridge-free, no change. What else-free . ..bleh can't remember . .. . .

[the summary of all summaries]

Congrats on all the good things :) , sorry about the bad stuff :(

I miss mySELF. :(

Yeah, I miss me, miss the psilly-Pseu, miss the daily joy of spreadin' the psilly & uppin' da wackl .. . .....losing confidence that it can really come back. :(

Susie, I too knew that end of June = bad anniversary, & wondered how you'd be w/ it. Hope it's not too bad. :wub:

Hope you're ALL doing as well as possible. :wub: :wub:

Hey psillies . . .. <weak wave> .. ...

HALLLLOOOOOOOOOOOO, PTAOUGHMGHMNUSS! :):)

Great to read your words again! Even though they are quite sad/frustrated/tired. Sounds like you've been free of almost all potentially offending stuffs. Almost... . . . . ....

Anyway . ..blah .. ...been wondering if I've become intolerant to something I've thought of as safe for years.

Have you always thought that tobacco is safe? I seem to constantly return to this variable when I think of you, Ptaoughmghmn, and your unrelenting sickness. Even if you are not intolerant nor allergic to the chemicals/nicotine, that crap cannot be helping.

And it may be the entire reason. :)

Dunno... . . . .....it almost seems like too easy an answer. . . . . ...

But I now know two young people who got their lives back by quitting smoking. Both were quite ill.

Thinkin' about you, friend. :wub:

Seems perfectly logical to me :D

:P

....Tel's made cakes.... calorie free :lol:

Yep--black olives, sausage, and cheese :rolleyes:

I will require the calorie-free cake recipe :lol:

Ok sillies- hollywood is not having a good week--Billy Mays the guy who did infomercials died today...what is going on!

I just got home and saw this on the news! Jeesh. :huh:

Oh Patatughmn....it's so good to see you but not to hear that yer still in the midst of problems :( I would be happy to kick ideas around wif you--I had to do quite a bit of figuring out phood intolerances myself. Let me know if I can be of any help :) One thing that you want to consider is that it's probably something you eat often--like daily or nearly that often. It's so difficult to decipher sometimes.

Emmel, I LOVE LOVE LOVE yer new photo,

Well... . . . . ....you canna really see our costumes in their full trashiness here. There were two shots taken of our whole bodies, both at the partay, and it was so dark in the hall that they are not very good. There were NONE taken of me after about 10 pm, when I took one of the bras, a big red one, that was hanging with underwear and socks from makeshift clotheslines around the ceilings, and put it on over my top. Don't even know if this is trailer-parkish (Jyaghnutt?), but I could not stop meself. <_<:rolleyes:

EM!! Where are yooz all going whilst MIL holds the fort??? :unsure:

We are flying to Edmonton (Alberta - -4 hours due west) where we will stay with a dear old college buddy of DH's for two nights. Then we are driving to Calgary for three days, then Banff (dear gawd, I cannot wait to see the Rockies) for two nights, then north to Jasper for one night, and back to Edmonton for day ten.

The drive northward is right through the Rocky Mountains, and is apparently one of the most incredibly beautiful trips on earth. Cannot wait. .. . .. . .....

I may just spot our yeti hiding amongst the craggy peaks. . . . ..

      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.
