Half A**ed Diagnosis.. Not Sure If I Am Actually Celiac

Unless it was something else I ate, it could be a million things at this point. But I have been pretty dang good and only eating approved gluten-free items (salads, five guys, yogurt). And I mean my own yogurt because this crap at the hotel has modified corn starch AND modified food starch. I'm supposed to avoid the food starch right? Ok I did eat one of them a few days ago. ..

 

 

I don't worry about "food starch" unless it says "wheat" - which is rare as it usually isn't made from wheat.  

 

Eating at restaurants might be a problem.  I do eat at some places but if you are having on-going issues, it might be best to just eat what you fix for a while.  Eating food made by other people is always risky.

Well it's a little over a week now since I ate those scrambled eggs that went through me within 4 hours and I am definitely feeling off.

For the last 4 days I have had this headache that hurts when I move my eyes, tired, CRANKY, EMOTIONAL, more bathroom time, and my neck is bugging me again. Oh and off and on nausea for the last 2 days.

Why the heck do I have the sleeper cell symptoms? Other than the "urgent greasy evacuation" i didn't have much for symptoms until a couple days later. And now they will surely be stretched out another week. Just in time for my trip to MN....

 

Where are you going in MN? I might be able to help with places to eat--lived there for many years :D.

Minneapolis for some of the time and the rest at a wedding in Hudson WI. 

 

Do you guys notice the pain and suffering this late? I am a HOT MESS at work right now which is just great. Trying to hold back tears because i am so frustrated with  my stupid cell phone company and trying not to SCREAM at these people for being so EFFING stupid. At work.. totally profesh. 0-60 in a flash for the second time this morning.. ugh. i don't even get this emotional when i am pmsy. 

 

I think i need a sign to hang around my neck that says "psycho b%$@# on the loose" or maybe just "volatile specimen, approach with caution"

There are a couple Red Robin's and 5 guy's if nothing else and downtown Minneapolis is a foodie haven so you should have a lot of gluten-free choices.  Not sure if you are driving or flying but if you go through Rochester, MN, stop at Twigs. The owner is Celiac!!!!  The food is fantastic too :D.  The menu is huge too :D.

VERY--their staff has to undergo training, they have gluten-free buns and all the "allergy" food is brought out separately and in different colored baskets.  You just missed the State Fair-they had 40 vendors this year that had gluten-free offerings :D.

No way! I used to live in Minneapolis before I came here and loved the state fair but was thinking to myself lately that it would never be an option to have a FRESH DIPPED CORN DOG ever again. so you are saying there's a chance!!!

 

That is super cool. Too bad it's over already.. dang it.

Corn dogs were one of the gluten-free options :D.  Open Original Shared Link  

 

MN State Fair--largest and best state fair in the country (Texas doesn't count, their fair is longer so not 'bigger') :D. 1.8 million visitors this year.

      I see it everyday on my feeds. They go out and buy gluten-free processed products and wonder why they can't heal their guts. I don't think they take it as a serious immune disease. They pick up things off the internet which is so far out in left field. Some days I would just like to scream. So much better when we had support groups and being able to teach...

      Thank you for the kind words!

While I get heartburn at night from commercial dairy milk, I do not from 'grassmilk'.

I just had an EMA blood test because I haven't had one since my Doctor moved away.  Got test results today, doctor ordered a D3 vitamin test.  Now you know what  type of doctors we have.  Now I will have to pay for this test because she just tested my D3 end of December, and still have no idea about my EMA.

      Thank you for the kind words! I keep thinking that things in the medical community are improving, but a shocking number of people still post here who have already discovered gluten is their issue, and their doctors ordered a blood test and/or endoscopy for celiac disease, yet never mentioned that the protocol for such screening requires them to be eating gluten daily for weeks beforehand. Many have already gone gluten-free during their pre-screening period, thus their test results end up false negative, leaving them confused and sometimes untreated. It is sad that so few doctors attended your workshops, but it doesn't surprise me. It seems like the protocols for any type of screening should just pop up on their computer screens whenever any type of medical test is ordered, not just for celiac disease--such basic technological solutions could actually educate those in the medical community over time.
