Back On Regluar Diet..

Well a couple of weeks ago my sons GI doc told us to put him back on the regular diet after his endoscopy.. (which was negative) we have not had blood work done on him yet and I am trying to get a stool sample in for testing..

anyway.. I also went back on the regular diet.. and hey.. even though I am eating all kinds of stuff like candy and ice cream and all.. I have lost 6 pounds. Now fitting into my old jeans is cool and all.. but every day it seems I get on the scale and am a pound lighter.. I have also had bloating and gas and all.. I have fallen three times.. ( am normally klutsy but not this bad..) and have been feeling spacey..more than usual..

makes you think...

Has this wieght loss been related to diet? my son did not lose any weight.. didn't gain either.. his bms have been about the same..but he is avoiding most gluten containing items.. you would think if I am on a HIGH carb diet... eating lots of ice cream etc.. (i've been bad) that I would not be losing wieght.

I just wish I could mainly get some answers about my son.. and mabye after another two weeks of this if I am still losing Mom will have to go to the doc.. that'll give me four weeks on the regular diet.. good for testing..

Ugh UGh and triple UGH

D,

Are going to the washroom like crazy?? That could cause the weight loss. I used to be under 100lbs before diagnosis, but that's because every time I ate I could keep anything in my body!! I'd rather gain more weight and be healthy than underweight and malnurished.

Somewhat..I would have to say yes more than before.. whats worse is being an adult and having accidents.. :angry: I started having trouble when I had the last baby Mr 11 pound boy.. I chalked it up to that.. didn't accociate it with my other son's problems till now that I am having this trouble again..

I weighed 90 pounds till 7 years ago when my first son was born.. now I am getting progressively lighter..about 2 pounds a week.. and I am eating high carb high fat ice cream cookies etc etc.. all the bad stuff..

so it's not like I am trying to lose weight

Hi D. It sounds like your body may not be absorbing nutrients (and calories). Doesn't sound healthy to me. I'm not a doctor, but I'd sure go see one.

Good luck.

Kim.

      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!

      Not Sure What to Think

      By MMH13 · Posted

      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!

      Sore muscles

      By Eldene · Posted

      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?

      Trader Joe's grocery prodcuts

      By LovintheGFlife · Posted

      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?

      Gluten challenge

      By Beverley Ann Johnson · Posted

      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.
