Bevvvi . . . I shall join you. 12-year old son of some friends started chemo today. :( Please keep him and his family in your prayers.

I absolutely will. It's so much worse when it's a child. :(

My BIL's dad has taken a turn for the worse so they now think it's only a matter of days. He was just diagnosed before Christmas. BLECH!

But Raychelle's right- we need some giggles. So Open Original Shared Link

I hate this, I can't open any of yerz links at work-all blocked to ensure there's no happy biznezz at work! I will have to wait till I get home to laff today <_<

My son's little girlfriend was diagnosed with Leukemia when she was 3 years old. It's been a really rough road the past few years, but she's now in remission and only has about 9 months left of her chemo. She's doing soooooo well right now! I'm thinking about being a Chemo-Pal for the Children's Cancer Association, but might wait till Max is in 1st grade to ensure I have the entire day to devote to these kiddos. Sumphin I've been thinking about for a while, I just think the timing may be off at the moment...

A round of prayers to all y'allz and yerz friends and familias!

Bwah! This is an excellent move, and I'm no Scot! :rolleyes: Phunny we're discussing this - - this past week I had a childhood buddy, who I've lost touch with but suddenly reconnected with on Da Book, over to give me an estimate on central air. It is about a third cheaper if we do it now. But still bloody expensive. Now THAT's the Scot in me. . . . .. . ...:lol:

I'm not at home. There are two other stores in the building, and one has been leased and is being renovated. But since last night's low was the coldest yet this winter, it just seems ironic.

Thanks, Em :wub:

Spent the day with hubby.......Home Show at the fairgrounds, dinner, then spent the night in a hotel. Hard to get time alone these days ;)

Poopers, Knick! hate going to the dentist, but better than the alternative. I went to an oral surgeon several years ago to have a couple of teeth extracted. He was supposed to put some kinda spacers under the gums to keep my other teeth from moving and to have the anchors already in place for whenever I can afford to have implants.......still waiting on that one

Anywho.....just found out at my last visit that not only did he NOT put in the spacers, he also left part of one tooth which will now have to be DUG OUT!!!! :angry: I don't even remember the name of that @#!% oral surgeon!

Cancer sucks! Sending healing thoughts to all those in need.

:(

Soozle!!!!!!! Are you my birthday present???? :D

You want a what?........a recap?

      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.
