Mark's aunt passed away--the one I've spoken about here....she was 92, an artist, and a really great person. She was more of an aunt to me ever since I've known her (35 years) than my own aunts. I'm going to miss her. Sad thing is that we won't be able to make the funeral--logistically it just can't work out

:( aww, sorry Pads......sounds like she had a good, long run....

:):) TILLYKKE MED FODSELSDAGEN, SOOOOZLE!

(Danish). . . . .....have a sooopah day!

SHOVELING!! don't know how you peeps live in snaugh....I really don't......too tired to even pick up dog poop most of the time, can't IMAGINE shoveling snow.....the ENERGY that would take. I swear I would be snaughed in for the entire winter.......could nae come out until it melted :unsure: might even die, er sumthin......

Thank you, sills, for all of yer birthday wishes. I got through it, which was my only plan and goal. Let's just say, I've had WAY better birthdays. :lol::huh:

stay warm, cold, psnowey sillies!!!!!!!!! :)

DingoGirl Enthusiast

oh, and speaking of picking up dog poop - the guy who invented this came into our office today (with my favorite cowboy named Dudley):

Open Original Shared Link

'tis really quite revolutionary. Shane got one for free, and so did Derek, but not I...I got there too late. <_< I shall see if Dudley can bring me one next time, for cheap. Imagine just scooping all the poop right into the sewer! No more plastic poop bags. :huh:

I gotta invent something.

elye Community Regular

SO glad you had champagne yesterday, Sooooze! :)

Open Original Shared Link

That is something. But.. . .. :huh: .....isn't it just as easy (easier, actually) to flush the poop down the toilet, as I do? I mean, ya gotta carry it to the sewer drain..... . ..I'm just as close to my toilet, usually..... . . ...don't need a hose. . .......just -- flush away. .....

Think I'm missin' sumfin ... .. ... :unsure:

:unsure: well, I suppose if yer dogs are poopin' inside the house.....it would be much easier to flush the refuse down the terlit........

:huh:

:lol:

are they, Emmel? pooping inside the house? Or do you bring the poop in from outside and flush it down the terlit? I must know :lol:

okay, well.......sometimes I don't scoop the poop for many days:ph34r: then there's a good-sized BAG of doo-doo, would be lovely to throw it down that sewer thingy, and not have bags of poo-poo trash. ;)

That way, there would only be kitteh poo poo in the trash can. Half as much sh!te.

B)

but wait a minute -

:unsure:

just thought of somethin.........

the poop is all over the yard.......so I'd have to put it in some kind of receptacle to get it TO doo doo drain, adn get it in there.......which means........I'd put it all in a bag, most likely, just as I do now.......then have to scoop it OUT of the bag to get it inside the doo-doo drain.......

or......maybe I could put it in some kind of permanent poop carrier/container, which is only used for transport over TO the sewer drain.......so let's say, I"ll use a metal pie tin. So the tin stays outside, year-round, covered in fecal matter, to be used daily to put the poop in the sewer. <blech>

:unsure:

You're right. it's too hard. :lol:

We really do give a lot of thought to all kinds of poop matters here, don't we. :lol:

G' Mornin', Poops! :lol:

are they, Emmel? pooping inside the house? Or do you bring the poop in from outside and flush it down the terlit? I must know

:lol: Yup, I use a plastic bag, pick up the two or three poops in our backyard (or DH goes ahead with this -- he oft beats me to it, and this causes quite a stir, both of us clambouring, fighting and elbowing each other as we struggle to be the first out the door), walk into the house with said poop in bag and flush it away. Sometimes takes TWO flushes.

:unsure:

:lol: DIS is phunnee

There is technique that must be honed and perfected... . ...... ..I can dump two or three big poops into the toilet bowl, directly out of said plastic bag, without ANY splash-up or contact made with the bowl. It's quite something, actually, and I think I should be interviewed on CNN, and I should absolutely be featured on Barbara Walters' Most Intriguing People of 2009 special.

      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.
