I distinctly remember there is a group meeting at love2travel's place..and she promised to do pick up at the airport in Edmonton.... Am I right love2travel? :huh: Wasn't that a group meeting?

Well there you go...she posted before I could... :) It's a date! :D

I'll pick up whomever is waiting for me at the Edmonton airport. You're in luck if you get here before 5 PM as I am teaching a yummy cooking class tomorrow. We are making:

Apple Cider Brine for Pork Loin (am making in advance, of course)

Balsamic Ginger Marinade for Shrimp

Honey Scallion Ginger Vinaigrette

Vanilla Bean Vinaigrette

a la Turque Vinaigrette (Turkish with pomegranate molasses, mint, etc.)

Pickled Onion Rings in Rose Water

Honey Apple Cider Vinaigrette with Spiced Walnuts

Caramelized Shallot Vinaigrette

Fig and Stilton Salad with Port Wine Vinaigrette

I've bought a whole bunch of cool greens and fixings to go with the above including endive, frisee, radicchio, various nuts to roast, pears to slice, fresh herbs, dried figs and various cheeses.

Should be delicious! Hopefully the students will love it...sometimes I get nervous about these things.

      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.

      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.
