Got thumbs up from the pedGI . . . don't have to go back until January.

Good news! :D

Now yes.....what has become of Nik? Was her Turkish holiday supposed to go this long?

It's called Loop for Life, and they shut down I-465 around Inpls........and get a police escort. They raise money foe several charities, including St. Mary's Child Center, Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia, and Ryan White's Infectious Disease Center. Last year there was about 3,000 riders and they raised $102,000.

What a great event to be a part of! :D

Yeah--paper was always a premium commodity at our school too :lol:

.....Cannot find me cats.....been out calling them, but they are having none of that........

Phorgot to tell you all that like Gus's receding poodle gums, BOTH cats also have considerable recession. What in hell is with that? Everything is receding around me - - my gums, my animals' gums, my husband's hairline, my mental faculties........my boobs.. . . ..... ..Krap......... :lol:

All right, Sillies, need some crucial advice, here. Several years ago, for a reason that I cannot recall, I had to get a pill down Bryce's mouth (our big male tabby). I managed it without incident, I am sure, because I remember little about it. Well, I now have to get two pills down his throat, two weeks apart, and two pills down Tess's throat (our little fiesty female). I briefly tried with Bryce. No way. I haven't even attempted this yet with Tess. Gad.........

I know for certain it is a two-person job. Two adults.

Well, since the cats are outside, does this mean you haven't tried it yet?

Okay. You must simply trick them. Open their mouths, hold them open - do this VERY QUICKLY. (uh, one cat at a time, please :lol: ). Shove the pill to the VERY back of the throat, then tickle the throat....they can't help but swallow.

This seriously must be about a 1.5 second operation - they never even know what hits 'em. ;)

Tom

I don't know where you guys see this number ??? :blink:

the post # isn't it as it wasn't 1299.

See you need a smart queen :ph34r:

:lol: The others have explained it well. See, for some reason.....here in sillyville, when we hit a HUGE post number, like, 2000, 3000, 10,000 - WHATEVER - there is always some sort of fluid onslaught! Dishwasher, plumbing issues, flooding in basement.......or HUMAN fluids: diarrhea, vomit, snot, anything. :lol: So LOOK OUT!! Yer ceiling's leaking, and look at your POST COUNT!!!!!!!! it's TRUE pholks, no urban legend, the Phlooding of Sillyville!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lisa, this is so great! Um - do you guys both have bikes? what kind? <is now the time to tell you I hate motorcycles? > :ph34r:

I don't have one of my own......Hubby's is a Yamaha.........I'm really not into motorcycles either, but since DD and her boyfriend and my hubby were going, I decided to go along and make it a family affair. Of course, the catered lunch will be totally off limits for me :angry:

And I've grown to accept the motorcycle a little more, especially with gas prices the way they are.

DD has her own motorcycle, and that kinda freaks me out. :unsure:

Morning Sillies--

Yesterday my day here at work was a train wreck....problem after problem...Here's hoping today runs a little smoother, I mean it is Friday and all it should be a wind down day don't ya'll think?

elye Community Regular

G'Morning, Sillies!

A stinker of a day promised.....32 celcius, and very humid. :sweatface;

All right, I carried Tess into DH last night as he lay on the couch and said gleefully, "you have to try to give her this pill. It is impossible". He took the pill, carefully pried open her mouth, and threw it in. He released her, she licked her lips and shook her head, then jumped down and sauntered from the room.

Haaaaaaaanhhhh???! :rolleyes::rolleyes::angry:

An hour later, when DH was in bed, I carried Bryce in, tossed him on the bed and handed Will the caplet. The same thing transpired... .. .it was like giving Jack candy.

:blink: This is quite.... . . ..compelling and..... . . ...aggravating. I am the one who cares for the animals, who feeds them, grooms them, has them on my lap, hugs them constantly.....totally MY gig. So, why can Will step right in and perform such a heinous, high-stress operation like cat-pilling, when he has NO experience with them, when they hardly interact wif him....???

Gawd. Well, it's done.

William, the Cat Whisperer. <_<:lol:

August so far has been absolutely beautiful--not too humid or hot. July was heinously that way, but this month it's been one nice summer day after another..... B)

TGIF--what a week--eh?

Got nuthin else....woke up with a sinus headache :angry: I'm thinking bout Bevvie--she gets her PICC line back today :( Hopefully Jess is resting lots and healing nicely.....our Sarah--always on my mind...

Motorcycles--so many have them out here and I'm sure they're using them more cuz of the gas prices. My son (the one who lives in NJ) has mentioned getting one.....

Ooh--yesterday I made a "Cause You're Special" lemon cake (don't tell Edna ;) )......and did a homemade buttercream frosting---omg--to DIE for! So good--Mark thought so too. :P

We are going to have a hot day today here too, for the next several days until Wed, I think we get a coold down and taste of fall-ish type weather mid week next week. I can't wait. I just LOVE the fall, my favorite time of year :D

      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
    • trents
      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. 
    • trents
      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.
