Hi.

I'm sorry for the short notice, but if you have a couple minutes to help me out - that would be great!

A short (6 questions) survey for a research project.

The first question is just male/female (be sure not to miss it, i didn't design it very well!)

Then the rest are groups of graphics (lines, squares, circles, etc) and all you need to do is choose the one in each group you find "most attractive"

If you have a chance to do this today or Saturday I'd really appreciate it. (We were only given 2 weeks for the project and I've been fighting with formmail for the last week!)

Thanks

Dawn

Thanks

Thanks everybody, I'm still collecting data. But somebody (tom)here is pretty quick and on top of their math! It's just a short little research paper (supposed to be 2-3 pages...but I can hardly write a letter that's only 2-3 pages!), but when I'm done I'll give you more info and might even post the paper on my website. The survey part is a little something I added to the boring "do internet research" stuff, so that it'll actually mean something to me!

I just made my choices. I'm looking forward to learning what that survey was about.

Whew! I'm finished...and 28 hours early!! I couldn't have done it without you. Thanks so much for all your help! For those of you that thought you were getting free psycho-analyzation...sorry. This was strictly a graphic/visual thing. There is this "golden ratio" in the math world. It is present in nature. It is widely believed to have been used in art and architecture and to be universally thought of as most aesthetically pleasing. So that's what my paper was about. Obviously since I just submitted the paper, I haven't gotten a grade on it, but I've gone ahead and posted it in case anybody cares. Open Original Shared Link For some reason when I converted to pdf the "appendix" links stopped working. If you want to see the stats in appendix B the link for that is Open Original Shared Link

More interesting to some (translated most) people than the actual paper...the writing playlist...

      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.
