Hello!

I had a blood panel done 5 years ago  for celiac disease. At the time I was suffering from large bulky stool, comstipation(since age 9), and underweight for my age group(9 yrs old). When I was 15 I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes which was cause by damage from familiar pancreatitis. Up till age 25 I exhibited yes the same symptoms. Recently I’ve been diagnosed with prancreaous incificiancy. I am to take creon with all my meal. Down side to that is that it makes my blood sugars go heywire. Currently I’m experiencing more hard large stool(like when I was younger), extreme bloating after meals, gas, burping, extreme pain in center of my chest, under ribs on both sides and kidney area on both sides of my back. Nausea and no vomiting are also common. I’m currrently not gluten free and eat a well balanced meal. I have a dietitian appt scheduale s for next month to manage the creon issue and a wellness visit with my doctor. My question for this group would be should I be retested?  My primary who originally ordered the test stated it was negative but I could still get the biopsy done if I wanted further confirmation. I attached the report below.  

Your opinons will be helpful thanks!

Hi,

The tests should have a range of possible values with them.  The interpretation of the tests depends on knowing those ranges.  Can you post them?

It looks like you only had some of the celiac tests.  I don't see deamidated IgG listed?

That's what I thought. No ranges were given from the dr report. I also noticed tht same test missing. I may ask my mother who is a lab tech for further clarification. Also I may ask my pcp for further testing due to the missing IgG.

      For back pain, I take a combination of Cobalamine B12, Pyridoxine B 6, and Thiamine B 1 (in the form Benfotiamine), which have an analgesic effect.  These three B vitamins together work way better than those over the counter pain relievers.  Theses are water soluble B vitamins that are easily excreted via the kidneys if not needed.  Thiamine will also help the nausea.

      @stephaniekl, welcome to the forum, Is your daughter taking any nutritional supplements?   Weight loss and failure to thrive are two symptoms of thiamine insufficiency.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms are not recognized as such by doctors.   I experienced similar symptoms when I became malnourished.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms can become worse quickly, and can affect one emotionally and mentally.  Although blood tests for thiamine aren't accurate, do have your daughter checked for nutritional deficiencies.  Thiamine B 1 works with the other B vitamins and magnesium.  Thiamine and Niacin B 3 help improve Gerd.  All the B vitamins are frequently low due to malabsorption.  Vitamin D will help calm the immune system.  Thiamine helps the immune system fight off viruses like those tick borne illnesses.   Thiamine Mononitrate, which is in many vitamin supplements, is not bioavailable.  I was taking a multivitamin containing thiamine mononitrate and still became deficient in thiamine. Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine has been shown to promote intestinal healing.  A form called TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) is also excellent for correcting thiamine deficiency.  A combination of Thiamine, Cobalamine B12, and Pyridoxine B 6 has analgesic properties.  I take it for back pain.   Keep us posted on your progress!

      Has prednisone or some other systemic steroid been tried that might quiet her immune system down for a while? I have two acquaintances with Lyme's disease. It is a wicked condition that has long fingers.

      We have.  She is so limited as to what she can eat.  She has a nutritionist, but they are even at a loss.  Right now, her pain is so significant that she can only eat 5-10 bites a meal.   We just got some labs back today and she is hypoglycemia, anemic and her immune system is shot.  She also is positive for 3 tickborne illnesses.  Thanks for your help!

      A much better suggestion than that of the new doctor!
