I feel I should also mention that since we are right out side of NYC, we can get a house down there and a small apartment here for as much or less than a home here. Not to mention phamily dinners at me house again.

:D Wackadoodle :D

......And ALSO not to mention that you are even closer to me, now, Patteigh... . .closer than when we had to drive all the way to PHILLY to see you...... .You're only nine hours away, now! And we keep talking about doing NYC again.. . . ..;)B)

Sitting at Robotics. Not much going on. Every team is just working on the bots. Kids playing a Ninja Freeze game. Perhaps, when Patti gets out of her box, she can join in?

They finally got it working. The only problem is that today was practice matches. Only about 10 of the 60 were able to work once.

Don't believe so... . . ....Shrooomie, youse guys are bracing for another bit of earthly sublimity, as are the Aussies....

Gawd, so many potentially effected.. . . . ..

Gnick, you're safe way over and up there! And I am, but my relatives out in Victoria have likely evacuated...

for the northwest, but I'm sure you can make it go down the coast. Open Original Shared Link

Wonder how many of my Asian classmates will miss the test today. :( Hope all their families are okay.

Good heavens--hope Em's relatives, Jess's classmates, Rachelle, and all involved are ok :( So scary!

Loooooooong night. Waiting for an all clear, but bc of the aftershocks, it might not happen until tomorrow morning. I'm not sure what I should be doing-stay in the house or walk into town. Obviously I won't be going to the beach, but I'd like to get out and around. I'm playing bingo with a 4yo right now ;)

Praying for all those affected. This is really bad :(

mushroom Proficient

It kind of puts our little quiver into perspective :unsure:

      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.
