He told me I didnt look "sick" which made me feel confused and frusterated because i am "sick". I was weigthed again yesterday and weighed 94.5 lbs. I has some more energy in the morning,m although as the day preceded, i felt sicker and my enrgy ebcame less and less. I have a schedualed Upper GI biopsy tommorow to test for celiac and

I Am Hating My Life Right Now

Its 2:15 am, i am feeling reaslly restless. My body is crying out for some activity. I feel what i call SKinny fat. I feel like I am skinny but fat at the same time. I feel soft and i wanna workout and move this doggone ( this word may have been changed by editors*) body. I cannot concentrate on my school work partially to whats going on inside me but also because the blood isnt circulating as it did when i was exercising.I feel it is somewhat crucial to move and not be a bum all day long.

Energy Is Getter Better

Today is a good day. Some of my energy has returned and I have been able to clear some things off of my desk. I have gotten about a week behind on things, due to the severe exhaustion I have been having. Then I took a bath in my deep whirlpool tub. It felt so great and I really needed the jets on my poor spine. Tonight my sweetie (husband) and I are going to Buffalo Wild Wings for dinner. I am really looking forward to that. Tuesday I see the specialist about my vision. If he has no answ

This morning I didnt get out of bed until 10:30, i went to bed at 11:30, SO THERES 11 hrs of sleep. I feel like ive slept 1 hr. Before bed last night I had some banana muffin thing and peanut butter. It went down fine. My eyes feel so dry right now, like they do every morning. I havent had a BM as of yet this morning. My body felt achey this morning, but i stretched and it seemed to take the aches away. Last night after the chicken i had terrible bloating and gas. I took a Gas-X and it seemed to

I Hate This

I feel like crap more so emotionally than physically. I wish I could just stay under my covers. I hate my life, this is unfair and I feel like crying every second of the day. my energy isnt as terrible right now, but iam not expecting it to stay this way because of past experiences. try hard to stay positive is most difficult when you can really beleiev that your life is going to eventually go back to normal and that you will feel better. How the hell do you tell yourself that everything will wo

I Hate My Life, I Want To Move On And Feel Better.

This morning I woke up feeling slightly tired but not too bad. I did a few stretches to help wake my body up. I had an ok bowel movement after waking, which was a suprise because i havent done that in a while. I was actual "hungry" this morning, so i take that as a good sign. I had rice toast with eggwhite, becel and strawberries. I feel bad right now. After I eat I get horrible head aches, liek someone is squeezing my head together. My eyes hurt too. I am very exhausted right now, which happen

Its Been 1 Week On gluten-free Diet

I have been on the gluten free diet for 1 week now. Overall my symptoms are slightly less severe, but still hard to deal with. My appetite for food has become almost not existant. Nothing is appetizing. I feel ill after eating still, yet definatly not as horrible as 1 week ago, while still eating Gluten foods. My most horrible symptom right now is horrible pressure headaches after eating, expecially in the evenings. My energy really dips after eating. If my energy is low before eating, I feel e

Maintaining Diet While Traveling

First time blogger here!   Anxiety while traveling is a real diet killer.   Let me set the background of that previous statement. As an exercise buff (pardon the pun) and weight conscious working girl with celiac sprue, maintaining a slim figure is the one solace that helps me deal w/and accept my celiac sprue (and soy/casein intolerances.)   Perhaps the fate of a life of extremely limited food choices, makes it easier for me to lose weight (something I feel entitled to after being diag

Another Entry

Yesterday was a bad day. I had horrible digesting problems. Indigestion and pain in my stomach. I always feel awful after eating but yesterday i felt worse after I ate. I ate soem chicken and salad and about 1/2 hour later I almost doubled over in pain. The pain was like someone was pulling my intestines and pour hot vinegar on open wounds. The pain was sharp achey and "raw". It was really bad. However, I do not think I was glutened. I think it was just my body trying to digest the food. I d

First Entry, Symptoms, Feelings, Frusterations,etc

Hi,   This is my first entry.   I planned that yesterday was gonna be my first entry but, I felt so bad that i could barely type. I was sooo exhausted and I ached in every bone and muslce on my body. It was kinda scary not being able to get out of bed due to sheer exhaustion. I believe I was GLUTENED!!!!!   The day before yesterday, i felt alittle different, not better just different. It was my first day on a gluten free diet. My energy was and still is low but it seemed different two

Vision & Scleroderma

I cannot believe how dumb I can be at times. I noticed AGAIN that the next to last posting was not published and so I click on the mouse and publish it. Now my last blog is further down the line. I think I did this once before. I hate when I do something like this without thinking it through.   My vision has been really bad on and off today. When it is a little better, I then pick up the book I am reading and hold it about 6 to 8 inches from my face. But at least I can read. Yesterday m

Celiac Doctor Says He Has 100% Cure!?

Hello, This is my first time using a forum and hope I get it to work.   Question...Is there a CURE for Celiac disease?   There is a doctor advertising on this site. His name is Dr. Skip Snow. He says, in his site that he can and does cure Celiac disease, as well as other diseases.   It will cost me a lot of money, that I don't have, in order to try him.   Has anyone had any experience with him? Any success or failure to report?   Thanks, Bob

Long Time...

Wow, between this, Livejournal, Myspace, and other internet toys, I really haven't been on here. I figured I'd drop a few lines.   The only thing I miss now that I'm a Celiac is the quickness and convenience of meals. That is, only when Thai Kitchen and other gluten-free packed food isn't available. I miss Krispy Kremes and Combos, badly. I wish that cooking breakfast and lunch didn't take so freaking long. It takes me almost an hour to cook, and when one of my friends asked my roommate where

Diagnosis

I have to say it's been interesting, as well as painful. This is not the worst thing that could happen to a person, but it is oddly inconvenient as I'm frequently on the road. Because of this being gluten free will be a challenge. I have had the most common syptoms for aproximately six years, but I suspect that I have had celiac disease for a much longer period of time. Frequent childhood illnesses, vaque allergies lack of energy. I have been trying to maintain a gluten-free diet since bei

Vision, Scleroderma, Google & Brain Fog

Yesterday was kind of a cruddy day. I did some errands in the morning and on the way home I noticed that I could not see the signs very well. And when I closed my left eye, my right eye vision was all blurred. I got home and my husband said to call the eye doctor. They wanted me in within 30 minutes which really upset me. They were concerned about the possiblility of a detached retina. I had had one in my left eye in the late 60's or early 70's (what does my memory know LOL) and I can tell

January 16, 2006. Day One Again.

dang. I had gluten last night. That really aggravates me not only for my intestines but for my RA. Now I have to start all over with today as Day One.   Today is a strict vegan, gluten-free day!

constipation is getting a little better, no bleeding today! I'm still eating vegetarian. It helps with both gluten and RA. I've been eating a lot of raw foods lately, fruits, including figs, dates, raisins, bananas, and lots of carrots, cucumbers, celery. I'm still very fatigued this week. I got the ok to lower my MTX to 6 a week instead of 7. PA said I was having a bad reaction to that high of a dose. She also thinks I'm anemic so I'm going in the first week of February for a blood tes

      I forgot to mention that there are likely many different, effective methods for hookworm incubation.

      The common theme of all of them is that the larvae must eventually hit the water after climbing out of the stool and be available to be collected for examination under the microscope. The larvae want to live and continue to play out their life cycle.

      The specific incubation method, whatever it is, must simply not get in the way of their efforts.
