Neg. Blood Test... Endoscopy Next?

I was tested in February and came back negative, but had already eliminated gluten so not sure what the point of it really was.  I guess I really don't care at this point.  The thought of eating gluten and feeling horrible to get a more accurate test result doesn't seem worth it.  So right now I am just not eating gluten.  Eat gluten = feel bad.  No gluten = feel good.  At some point I may change my mind.....

good point and it's that simple.  when i quit eating gluten, i got better.  

 

Guys... My mom is really against me getting the endoscopy due to money... This is just making everything worse! Ughhh... I just feel like crying.

$$ is so tight for nearly everyone these days.  if eating gluten free is making you feel better and your folks can do it, what if you just wait - you should be able to tell  :)

 

ps - nobody makes me whip out my diagnosis.  alot of times i don't even mention celiac.  i just say i can't eat gluten.  plain and simple.

 

pps - your sn makes me want to call you 'tiny chef' lolz  :D

I'm over the thought of having to explain to people about my gluten problem... I could care less if they believe me lol. Its just my mom.... She has called me a hypochondriac, and I just feel like I need to prove something to her. She thinks shes gluten sensitive, but not as far as celiac disease. I still live with her, and I just want to absolutely rule of celiacs, that way I know the damage being done to my body. So really, I just feel like my mom wont take me seriously if I want new shampoos or toothpaste.. She doesnt believe in cross contamination either :/

 

And lol, well, my name is actually first 3 letters in my first, middle, and last name.

I got disoriented with this post and the other one...

 

 

I'm sorry to hear this is causing problems with your family.

 

If you are short on money just do the DGP-IgG after you did the gluten challenge.

 

 

PS: on the other posts you said you have C vs D.

 

Calcium in milk or cheeze, can cause C.

Magnesium supplements loosen C.

      Thank you so much, everyone. For the moment my doctor just has me taking iron but hopefully we can reconnect soon. I'm going to look into genetic testing, too. Great advice all around and I appreciate it--and you can bet I'm going off the PPIs!

      I walk fast for fitness, 4 to 6 km per day. I am also 74 years old. Apart from the Celiac challenge, my lifestyle is healthy. I had a sciatiac nerve pinching under my one foot, with inflamation in my whole shin. It was almost cured, when the other shin started paining and burning. I do stretches, use a natural cooling gel and rest my feet. Can Celiac cause muscle pains/inflamation, or is it just over-excercising?

      I recently started shopping at a nearby Trader Joe's store. I was surprised at the number and variety of (healthy) gluten-free options sold there. I must admit their low prices are also quite tempting. However, I am curious as to the labeling on all their packages. While none of their products are certified as gluten-free, many are identified as 'GLUTEN FREE' on the packaging. Are these items safe for celiacs? Has anyone tried Trader Joe's products and have there been any adverse reactions?

      HI, my doctor suggested one week of consuming gluten before blood tests.  I have been gluten free for 3 years.  Has anyone been through this and will I get exact results after one week of consuming gluten?  I don't even know if I can do this, if I get sick I am not sure if I can continue, any suggestions??  Thanks in advance.
