Given Up Gluten

Hello

I had some blood tests done over a week ago and only one came back as slightly abnormal, it was the liver test. After my blood test I went on a gluten free diet and after 48 hrs my depression lifted completly. I am now thinking staight and I dont feel like I cant cope with life. I cant beleive how much better I feel. I deceided to have a big slice of cake to see what happens.....I became really depressed again and it took 48 hrs until I was feeling better. I wont be doing that again.

My doctor wants me to take my blood test for my liver again, not sure why. I have made an appointment to see him and talk about why it needs to be done again. I dont want to have to go on gluten again......ever. But I live in England and I would get help with buying bread and pasta if I am diagnosed. We will see.

I just wanted to share my story and hope it helps someone with the same problems that I have been having. There is hope :D

Thank You for sharing your story :)I've had problems for 12 years & the worst of all is the brain fog. Because of everything I find myself depressed among other things. It's nice to see how well this works for you & gives me hope. I wish it was that fast for all of us! Mine is going to be a long process... It's been almost 5 weeks for me so far. Not bad really because I didn't realize how long it's been until I looked at the beginning date (July 6th).

      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.

      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.

      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.

      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!
