The Intolerance Song

Well, I said goodbye to dairy today after a positive breath test so I wanted to mourn it as I will miss it. I'm sure you could substitute anything you're intolerant to so have fun. Sing your intolerances!

Sing to the Tune of Scandal's "Goodbye to You" Open Original Shared Link.. (in case you need musical accompaniment- I wanted to BE Patty Smyth in the 80's!)

Those times I ate something with you will soon seem so long ago

I wanted to eat ice cream far too much to ever let you go

You know I never got by, My gut felt it too

And I guess I never could stand to lose

It's such a pity to say

Goodbye to you

Goodbye to you!

How could I have loved ice cream when it always made me poo?

I remember the good dishes baby now, and the nauseous times too

These last few weeks of holdin' on

The days are cheesy, but the nights too long

Guess it's better to say

Goodbye to you

'Cause dairy it's over now

No need to talk about it

It's not the same

My love for you's just not the same

And my gut, and my gut

And my gut can't stand the strain

And my butt, and my butt

And my butt won't stand the pain

Goodbye to you

Goodbye to you

Goodbye to you

Goodbye to you

Goodbye dairy

So long, darlin'

Goodbye to you!

Now that made me laugh, how funny! Sorry you have to give up dairy, too. But hopefully you'll feel better for it and it will be worth it.

My commiserations Bev, bummer <_<

Excellent lyrics!!! :lol::lol:

I've written you a sympathy poem:

Oh cheese I miss you so

I had to let you go

Milkshakes are out

But, I'll feel better no doubt

Ice cream and butter

Are all in the gutter

Don't need no cow

So I take a vow (to be)

DAIRY FREE

The new me.....

Dear Mtndog and Nikki-uk,

ROFLMAO! :lol: I loved these! It is difficult. Handling this with humor is always helpful. Laughing about it certainly helps. The Chocolate Emporium is terrific for cake mixes! I am hoping to order some chocolate candies soon!

Sincerely,

NoGluGirl

      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.

      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

      Small Bowel Resection 12 inches

      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...

      Small Bowel Resection 12 inches

      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...

      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.

      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.
