14Month Update! Repeat Biopsy Results

[designerstubble]

Diagnosed 14 months ago Marsh 3b, scalloped duodenum, hiatus hernia.

Subsequent intolerances to MANY foods.

Severe anaemia, low vit d, major hairloss, severe adrenal fatigue, melasma, night sweats, neuropathy, depression, etc!

Repeat biopsy shows 'essentially NORMAL '

Not sure what they mean by essentially but normal sounds good to me.

I came back on to share this, for those of you out there that worry, fret, get anxious, cry, wonder when it's going to get better... It does happen. I was/am one of those that did all that worrying. I still have a way to go in regaining my former self. If indeed I ever will!! But... Healing DOES happen, it's happening for me on a diet that's severely restricted!

Keep at it! :-) x

It's super good news! You're right….it can and does get better!! Great job!

Aw thanks guys. I'm still not where I need to be, but I just thought sometimes it's nice to hear some success. I know when I was diagnosed I looked for any possible success threads! We are all or have been looking for hope that things get better. I just wanted to share, to show that slowly but surely it can be done. It took a lot of green juices and food restrictions! I'm hoping in another year I might even grow some hair back!! Lol. That'd be nice! X

Congrats!!

 

and yes, just hang in there...I saw more results in symptom resolution (plus more hair regrowth) after 20 months.

 

Best wishes and stay the course.

fabulous!!!  lolz - i was going to ask about your hair, but you included that   i'm at about 3 1/2 years, now, and i am happy to report i have an under layer of 'baby hairs' and it's making my hair so much thicker and more full.  it takes a long time!  but i wasn't expecting it to actually grow back, i was just glad it stopped falling out haha

That's wonderful! Great job sticking to the restricted diet, I know that it isn't easy. I'm vegetarian, gluten free, dairy free, and mostly sugar free.
