This is what I decided to do--took cubed sweet potatoes, drizzled wif olive oil and honey, sprinkled wif garlic powder and salt. Sounded good, and much easier than making a cheese sauce. ;)

Actually, in this case we have been. It has impacted my availability as a mod, so they needed to know.

Here's a brief version of the story. Please do NOT make any comments about this on the book. Keep it here among the sillies.

Jacquie has had discomfort for some time due to large fibroids. She had surgery to remove them, along with everything else "female" from the cervix upward. The larger fibroid was about 10cm in diameter. There were some difficulties, and she had an additonal procedure Thursday. She is likely going to be kept until at least Monday.

The recovery process involves restricted activity including no driving for four weeks. So I will be busy between running our business without her help, and taking extra time to look after her.

Gads, I leave dh home for 4 hours and he decides to clean house. GREAT idea since his baby tubes were sliced and diced yesterday :rolleyes: Guess who was writhing on the sofa wif an orange-sized hematoma in his left groin....pseriously, do I have to babysit everyone?!?!?! :blink:

I met some other mom's at the zoo this morning and took and extra 4 year old boy wif me (jackson), as well as my 8 year old. When the 2 boys got in the car, the immediately started dishing about Ava, who is in their class (and would be at the zoo), see Jackson and Ava are quite the 'item' and Max wants her to himself (since his set of twins moved away :huh:) , so he and Jackson were trying to work out a deal. Initially Jackson was willing to sell her off for 50 quarters and by the end of the car ride, she was down to 5 dollars in cash and 21 quarters and Jackson would no longer be building the house he promised her.... I was laughing so hard. Poor Ava :lol: :lol: And this was poor Madeleine's phace thru the whole morning :blink:

So cute about Skeeter and her new ear holes

Madeleine found out today I used to have a tongue ring.....Hard to explain that one. I think what came out of my mouth was "uh, uh, uh, I WAS OVER 18!!!" :huh::lol:

MY LIVING WILL

Last night, my family and I were sitting in the living room and I said to them, 'I never want to live in a vegetative state, dependent on some machine, drinking fluids from a bottle. If that ever happens, just pull the plug.'

They got up, unplugged the Computer, and threw out my wine.

They are Soooo on my sh!t list ...

:lol: :lol: Phabulous!!

      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.
