The storm system has passed through, and all we got was noise and rain. Reports are coming in about storm damage all around us, but we are seemingly unaffected.

Bah!! All we get is dry lightning and fires; a firefighting tanker pilot was killed today in a crash in Nevada...Of course it was over 100 degrees today :( Maybe starting to cool down tomorrow :)

So I decide I want some ice cream, and I want some without corn syrup so I head for Ben and Jerry's. I pick up some excessive fudge concoction and start reading. Yes, it's gluten, soy and corn free, but it does contain.....butter.

butter

I still can't get over it.

jerseyangel Proficient

M-m-m-m....butter and chocolate. :rolleyes:

Psillies . . . been a bit busy the last couple of days. As you may remember, me MIL came to stay wif us a couple of days to work with the builder on their plans for a new house . . . contingent on the sale of their house, of course. Well, the MLS went live yesterday. The sign went up at 3:00 yesterday. They've had four showings and just recieved a full price offer from someone who wants them out in three weeks. It looks like its a "go".

Geoss - what am I missing about the butter thing? Is that bad? Is butter wrong in ice cream? :unsure::lol: There's butter in fudge, right?

********************

Sills :(

I live in deep, daily regret and with consuming thoughts that I didn't give that terrorizing miscreant his bike back last weekend. :( And especially since tonight, while I was on the phone, a very suspicious car drove by, parked next door, kept motor running......then did u-turn, waited in front of my house for a minute....

:unsure:

I got the license number and called and gave it to my mom (probably shouldn't have done that - she is already worried sick) but....I feel almost certain there's going to be retaliation in my future, and I am scared, for the first time in my life.

Prayers of protection requested Sills, many prayers. I am not used to being nervous this way.....horrible way to live and now I understand what my scared friends go through. :(

jerseyangel Proficient

Oh Souxie--that's a terrible way to pheel :( Have you considered calling the police and letting them know about the car? You have a license number--you never know maybe this group has been in trouble before.

Of course I will say a prayer for you--I'm sure everything is going to be ok :)

      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.
