Call From Dr

Well I got a call today saying my results came back "fine"

I already had an appointment for tomorrow so I will go in and and see what exactly "fine" means as they did some other tests as well.

I have to say as much as I don't want celiacs I am disappointed because I have so many unexplained symptoms and health issues that my dr doesn't seemed concerned about.

I'm also taking my daughter in to get some answers for her issues. :(

Constipated, thirsty all the time, lots of bathroom trips (pee) tummy aches, moody, leg cramps :(

Anyways I'm planning on her and I both going gluten free no matter what.

have you ruled out diabities? increased thirst and urination, moodiness, and leg cramps are all diabities symptoms

Some of that could be due to thyroid issues too.

 

Are you going to try the gluten-free diet to see if it helps? Non-celiac gluten intolerance (NCGI) has the same symptoms as celiac disease, is much more common, but there is no way to accurately test for it yet.

I agree, ask for a copy of the test results and that way you can get a second opinion if need be.  And it helps to give a copy of that kind of stuff to your primary care doc as well.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      My genetic test results have arrived - I’m homozygous for DQB1*02, meaning I have HLA-DQ2. I’ve read that this is one of the genes most strongly associated with celiac disease, and my symptoms are very clear. I’m relieved that the results finally arrived, as I was getting quite worried since my symptoms have been getting worse. Next step, blood test. What do these results imply? What should I tell my family? I’m concerned that this genetic predisposition might also affect other family members.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By rei.b · Posted

      So far 3 months in - worsening symptoms. I have had the worst constipation in my life and I am primarily eating naturally gluten-free foods like potatoes, eggs, salad with homemade dressing, corn tortillas, etc. I hate gluten-free bread and pasta so I don't eat it. Occasionally I eat gluten-free almond flour crackers. As stated in the post, I don't have any vitamin deficiency. I was already tested.

      Talk to your  Talk to your provider about testing for vitamin and mineral deficiency.  celiac disease causes malabsorption and eventually malnutrition.  Especially vitamin D. Having the gallbladder removed seems to be a common step on the way to a Celiac Disease Diagnosis,  Gallbladder is a sympton of deficient Choline. Eggs and red meat are the primary source..Choline makes up a majority of the bile salts.  The bile gets thick, doesn't get enough into intestine to digest fats well.  Can eventually back up into gallbladder, cause gallstones.  Without bile, bowel movements can become hard. Try to avoid all processed foods while you are healing, The gluten-free foods are not fortified with vitamins and use various ingredients to mimic fat that bothers many Celiacs.  Choose vegatables with low omega 6.  Optimum omega 6 to omega 3 ratio is less than 3:1.  Wheat flour is 22:1.  Grass fed milk is 1:1.   Commercial Dairies milk is 5:1.  They feed wheat, rye and barley Gluten as part of the food mix.
