Gretchen,

Thank you for your well wishes and prayers, I do appreicate them more than you know. You will also be in my thoughts and prayers, I hope you find some answers and begin to feel better! :D

I wonder if my doc was checking the tests in my blood that you mentioned, they took 3 viles. I thought he was only checking my B-12, etc but I don't think they need 3 viles for that :blink:

BTW, CONGRATS on your wedding, I hope you are feeling great on your happy day!

Hi everybody! It's been awhile since I've been here. My Dad found out he had some clogged arteries, and had to have a quadruple bypass! I have a question, and am feeling too awful to search the 3 pages of threads that mention "Crohns disease". I had my GI appt today. Doc is suspecting crohns or colitis. I asked nicely and batted my eyelashes, so he wrote me a labslip to check for celiac disease too! THANK GOODNESS!!! Does anyone know of a cool crohns disease message board, with people as helpful as you all?? I would think crohns.com or even crohnsdisease.com would have some info, but they were just portals that led you to other things. :angry: Anybody have a suggestion for a good crohns message board?

I guess I have a second question. Ironically, I met my husband via a girl with crohns disease. She was my age and seemed to live at the hospital I was working at. She was there for 2-3 weeks at a time, at least once every 2 months - because of crohns disease. Is it really that bad? She did street drugs and took really crappy care of herself, so I'm hoping that's more the reason she was there. At this point in my life, a week or two in the hospital would be a welcomed vacation - but not every other month!!!! If I do have crohns, what can I expect? As far as like, medications, diet, feeling better, hospitalizations, etc..etc...

Thanks everybody!! *hugs and kisses*

      Blood results

      Understood. It's very anxiety-provoking when you don't know what you are dealing with and don't know if you are attacking it correctly.

      Blood results

      By Heatherisle · Posted

      I have heard of NCGS, but everything is just so confusing!!! Just unsure of things as her EMA test was negative but TTG was positive @19u/ml(lab range 0.0-7.0).Apparently she also has occasional bubble like blisters in between her fingers, don’t know if that’s significant. She is triallling gluten free as suggested by the gastroenterologist after her endoscopy. Keep getting different answers when typing in her symptoms etc. Some sites say it can be possible to have coeliac, even with a negative EMA . It’s so frustrating and her anxiety levels are through the roof. I know she’s hoping it’s coeliac which is weird I know!!! But if it’s not it just means more tests. Sorry to ramble on!!!

      Rice Flakes

      By sillyac58 · Posted

      I ame looking for rice flakes that aren't cross contaminated to use in making oat free granola. Does anyone know of a brand? Also I see that some people just used puffed rice cereal, but it seems like that wouldn't be sturdy enough to withstand the mixing without crumbling. Any ideas out there? Thanks!

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      There isn't because there is currently no gluten-free labeling requirement for prescription medications. You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/

      Is Purito's Oat In Calming Gel Cream safe for celiacs?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Since they make not "gluten-free" claim on their site: https://purito.com/product/new-oat-in-calming-gel-cream/ I'd treat this as though it contains small amounts to gluten, but I just want to mention that skin contact with gluten isn't an issue for the vast majority of celiacs.
