I have had FIVE glasses of chardonnay since 6 pm. Quite an evening. . . ..the first part of which was spent riveted to the big screen at my mom's retirement residence, in the fireside lounge, watching the Belmont Stakes. What a race! And what an audience...All of these ninety year-olds yelling and shouting, leaping up and down, rooting for their prospective horses, clutching their chests. . . . .. .gawd.. . . had my first three glasses there.. .. .

Annnnnd a couple o' glasses later, here I am.... . ...

Hmmm.. . . nothing to drunkenly add to the divorce discussion..... . . .think I would be very bad at it. I seem to do marriage well.....

Man, especially after all this wine... . . . . :lol:

Is there still wine? Or I am too late to the (?) party? It's been raining all day and I'm demoralized/restless as my plans had involved lots of garden time, which did not happen.

Woot! A soggy gardener has joined us! I've moved on to coffee and peanut butter cookies before heading out for a walk.

Sounds good! Coop & I will be right over. He prefers water.

Soggy gardener is now a soggy runner, who needs a shower followed by tea and cookies!

(my secret moniker... hmmm... dare I reveal the prosaic fact that was the e-mail assigned by my undergrad? I can remember it, and it's never taken as a username.)

Emily, btw, I love your dog pic. I grew up with standard poodles and am very fond of them.

Extra cookies for him? And no slippery floors?

How will he handle all the farms full of animals on the walk?

He ususally ignores them or wags his tail at other animals. He has been trying to be friends with the rabbits this week. He doesn't chase, just trots slowly with tail wagging - head down. Got excited when Foxy was in the yard- seemed to think she was a dog here to play.

Excellent. We'll be greeting llamas, chickens, a donkey or two, couple cows, some horses, lots of slugs, and a few dogs taking their owners out for a run.

Love seeing the runner dogs. At the beginning they're all excited and happy to be going out, and when you pass them again at the end of their run heads are down, paws dragging, they keep glancing up at dad with that "you can't be serious" look as they try to calculate how much farther it is to home.

Flash mob was more like a flash 'group' :rolleyes: , but that's OK. It was fun. We continued to dance throughout the afternoon for 3 hours. Only problem was that we were directly under a skylight. Lots of sweaty bodys. Nothing like being spun around, hair flying, only to have it come back into your own face with someone elses sweat on it <_<

Hey! Great workout, Leeeesargh! Something you love to do, and your heart rate's way up - - superb. What a fun way to exchange sweat!

All right, sb2178.. . . . ...the unofficial edict around here is that we need your real name, or a close proximity, so that we can rightly butcher it and make it psilly. Kherrighnne, Jyaghnutt, Jyesssss, Low, leeeesargh, Gnick, Soooooozle, etc.

Suppose we could just sillify your forum name, but it somehow isn't quite as funny.

Nope. Need yer real name.. . ...

I used to use my bra size, but through the years I kept having to change it, so I gave up on that approach. . . .....as I recall, twenty years ago I was known as 34dd... . . ..after both my kids were born I had to change it to 36c.. . . ....crap, I HATE my password now that I'm into my forties. <_<

Dear gawd, would LOVE this. Big poodles just go. And go. And go. I run, they run. I keep running. They're running. I finish 5k. Their look is more, "you can't be serious -- that's it??"

Hmmmmmmm........I'm not so sure about that. I can still understand her.

:lol: Yes...I was hoping for a few drunken Jyessss postings.. .. . .

This is so true! We also need a name for Glutenfreemanna. If they do not care to share a first name choice, I, the Psilly Queen, will be happy to bestow names upon them.

Taking suggestions....

I'm assuming both are females so:

Eunice

Moon Unit

Gaga

Wido

Latrine

So true. Although, when babysitting kids of people with large energetic dogs, it was always helpful hearing that they'd had the dog out for a 10 mile run!

One of these days I'll challenge my keyboard hogging cat with a running dog... She'd have no problem keeping a pup in line.

How magnanimous of you to make suggestions. If you must have a name besides Manna, y'all can call me Irene. Will that one be sufficient butchering material? :D

I'm sure they can. Have you seen the ways they mangle "Karen"?

I though perhaps your name was pronounced differently than the standard "Karen". With the g added I had made it "Car-Eng-Gee" said really fast in my mind. :lol:

      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.

      I have always eaten gluten and never stopped until my recent episode. I started more wheat products as my Dr. requested for the Tissue Transglutaminase Iga Antibody. mye result Value <1.0 Value interpretation: <15.0 Antibody not detected > or =15.0 Antibody detected I do not understand any of it. After eating all that wheat product my body exploded with all sorts of symptoms. I stop gluten ASAP. I am still in the healing process. I started having issues after my surgery.

      Welcome to the celic.com community @Ello! You say you had a blood test for celiac disease after eating gluten for 2 weeks. Were you gluten free before that? Had you ever been officially diagnosed with celiac disease previously? You say the result of the blood test was 1.5. Can you provide the name of the test and the reference range for negative vs. positive for the test? I ask because different labs used different reference ranges so scores without a reference range aren't very helpful.
