New to these boards, I suppose would appreciate feedback if possible.  For the last few months I have been suffering from chronic fatigue and my glands (armpits, neck and legs are all swollen)- the pain tenderness comes and goes but sometimes it hard to go about my daily routine let alone going to the gym and working out.  When I work out the glands/nodes hurt more especially when I am doing push ups or dumbbell press.  Various people have said to go get it checked out but I'm hesitant to do so because my current GP/Endo etc usually go off blood work rather than the symptoms I'm struggling with.  Been taking large doses of Vitamin C in conjunction of eating very clean (candida cleanse diet clean for the last several weeks) however, despite this I am tired all the time and my glands hurt a lot.

You should go to your doctor and let him/her check it out at least.  Get their thoughts on what could be causing it - without the blood work. Just because a doctor recommends a test you don't have to do it.  Sometimes, swollen lymph nodes can be something serious. I wouldn't ignore it...... If they think it could be serious, then consider getting the labs.

      Thank you that’s really helpful, hopeful won’t have to have a biopsy.

      That means the normal range (i.e. not celiac disease) would be a result less than 14.99.  Your result is WAY above that. Some gastroenterologists would diagnose that as celiac disease even without a confirming biopsy because it is more than ten times the top of the normal range.

      Diagnosis and further testing Celiac

      By Redanafs · Posted

      Hi everyone. Back in 2022 I had blood work drawn for iga ext gliadin. Since then I’ve developed worse stomach issues and all other health issues. My doctor just said cut out gluten. He did no further testing. Please see my test results attached. I just need some direction cause I feel so ill and the stomach pain is becoming worse. Can this test show indications for other gastrointestinal diseases?

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

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.
