I'm pretty sure it's byow. That way there'll be no arguing over flour paste in casks. If you get glutened it's your own fault.

Oh! thank goodness! I didn't want to be responsible for all that glutening! Robert Mondavi is rolling over in his grave at the thought of flour in his wine!

Well, for all of us who were absent, I do hope that everyone else has a note from their mothers. .. . . ...or doctors. :rolleyes:

J had the cold that is going around for about 2 hours. Matt coughed about 5 times. I guess there is some benefit to our over vigilant immune systems. :unsure:

Well I hope none of you were at the party. We don't need the entire board - guests included - coming down with something.

jerseyangel Proficient

We had planned to go to South Jersey over the weekend, but didn't want to give Mark's cold to the kids. We called Matt Friday night to let him know.

Saturday morning I got an email from him saying he woke up with the start of a cold and he musta caught it over the phone. :P

I swear life doesn't slow down :rolleyes: Hub got back from business trip in sunny Orlando, where, for their opening welcome night, the had rented out all of Universal Studios, so he had a blast. I actually had a really good time with the kids and the new bunbun who is attached to me already (and I to him ;) ). I had a brunch at my house for my family Sunday morning and a Demarle dinner party Sunday evening. It was a lot of fun, but we didn't sell a whole lot... Oh well! Back to the grind this week :unsure:

UGH!!dry.gif

Did I tell you guys we're FINALLY getting a new kitchen?? Complete remodel.

GAWD! That dust goes ALL over the house mad.gif

Congrats!!! And gooooooooood luck ;) Twas the worst 2 months of my life and I even have and extra kitchen!

Hello my dear psillies,

I am literally having the !@#$iest birthday of my life!!!!!!! Loey

Happy Birthday! I hope it got better.....

Holy hell.. . . . ..my ass in pancake batter?.. . . .:huh:.....dunno how spiced up that would suddenly make my marriage.. ..,. . .must ask DH. Would one be using a mixmaster in this scenario? Spatula?.. . . .. . .. .I would need quite the frying pan, I fear... . . .... . <_<

Maybe brownie batter, chocolate ganasche.... something like that would probably be better than pancake batter :ph34r:

:lol::lol:

We need to get all the mods "indisposed". Then we take over. I love the emoticons and the new drunk thread. Excellant ideas. I'm going out to get a pirate flag to fly after the mutiny.

No Chex in Canada? After we take over C.com we will have to work on that! Haaaaaa! Power!

Haven't heard about it but will keep my eye out and report. Do they have any other locations in the US?

      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.

      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.
