Well I have had a rough few weeks. The new diagnosis of having celiac's then had to have an ultra sound. Had some not good findings. A polyp on my gall bladder and my kidneys are no functioning right. So it means more tests. But today at work found a gift on my desk from a co-worker. Inside of it was all gluten free foods, mixes and curry sauces. She truly made my day today. I am thankful for his co-worker . She has let me vent and share my thoughts during this hard time. The smallest of thoughts and actions can change someone's day.

Just had to share.

I saw the title " Co-workers" and assumed this was another story about co- workers making fun of you or consistently having food parties, or waving fresh doughnuts under your nose. What a lovely surprise!

Very sweet - one of my co-workers gave me a fantastic gluten-free cookbook after my diagnosis, and some gluten-free pasta.  Extremely thoughtful and really helped.

I found a bag of g.f. cookies on my desk one day.  Never did find out who left it but brought a smile to my face all day!   Special people. !!!

I was recently in a training class where the trainers would bring donuts for the class on certain days.  The main trainer would always bring me something that was gluten-free, she was so sweet and I don't think she knows still how much that meant to me.  Always lovely to have a good experience stand out.

That is sweet. I hope your kidneys are okay. Keep us posted on the testing you have to have done.

      Finding out I’m coeliac whilst pregnant

      By Beverage · Posted

      Sounds like you are in the UK. With blood numbers that high, I thought docs in UK would give an official diagnosis without the biopsy. You should ask about that, so you can get support faster.  I'd try to find and print out anything that supports that in your country, get another appointment and take all of it with you. Even in the US now, some docs are doing this, my 19 year old step granddaughter got an official diagnosis here in US with just blood results a few months ago.

      Seeking Gluten-Free Advice for My Trip to South Korea!

      By Beverage · Posted

      Is soy sauce in Korea also made from wheat like it usually is in US? I'd be concerned that even if asking about gluten, they would not be aware of or think of some like that.

      Not Sure What to Think

      By trents · Posted

      That's a good idea. It can at least establish the potential for developing celiac disease and can help people decided between a celiac diagnosis and NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). And it doesn't require a gluten challenge and can be had without a doctor's prescription.

      Anyone had endoscopy with a cold/cough???

      By awright24 · Posted

      I have my endoscopy on Thursday, has anyone had the procedure done with a cough? I don't have a continuous cough, but every now and then throughout the day I have sort of coughing episodes. They are a lot better than they were but I called endoscopy and they said to speak to my gp and my gp got back to me and said I need to ask endoscopy if its ok if I have it done still.  Help!

      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!
