PPI

I just read somewhere here that a Dr was upset at someone not taking their PPI. This I take for GERD and after my accidental gluten poisoning I couldn't keep anything down for several days. My GERD is still giving me problems 2 weeks on. I'm waiting on an appointment to have my PPI increased. Is it just me?

@Elliemae7395,

PPI's have been scientifically studied and shown to promote CeD. 

GERD is caused by having low gastric juices, hypochlorhydria. 

PPI's lower the production of gastric juices further and disrupt digestion, leaving undigested food available for fermentation by bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract resulting in bloating, wind, and diarrhea or constipation, and SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth).  

Hypochlorhydria is symptomatic of having a deficiency in Niacin Vitamin B 3.  

Discuss with your doctor the benefits of supplementing with B vitamins while healing.

Here's some interesting reading....

Not sure how to go about explaining. During my endoscopy damage to my esophagus was found. (There is a history in my family of peptic ulcers which is why I agreed to the procedure in addition to my colonoscopy in the first place.) My doctor prescribed the PPI at that time. One of my problems had been a dry cough which was like a dry heave. With the PPI there was relief of this cough within days. At my scheduled appointment a few days later my gastroenterologist explained that I had celiacs and the basics of what that means. He told me of the celiacs website. He told never to eat wheat again. He also suggested seeking a dietician. During the pandemic I had so much trouble getting appointments. He slowly cut back my PPI from 20mg 3times a day to 2 times to one time a day. After my gluten poisoning the cough was back. I had not been able to take any of my meds for several days.

Eosinophilic esophagus is an inflammation of the esophagus associated with Thiamine deficiency.

Supplementing with Thiamine and following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet (Paleo Diet) and supplementing with Thiamine has helped mine.

Thiamine and Niacin work together along with the other B vitamins.  Discuss supplementation with your doctor and nutritionist.

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By trents · Posted

      A lot to think about here. Does anyone have any recommendations for third party laboratories that will do full panel celiac screens private pay in the U.S.?

      You don't need an official diagnosis to request a gluten-free diet in either a hospital or nursing home--this can be requested by anyone. The higher costs associated with existing conditions for life insurance is a reality, and regardless of your politics, it could become a reality again for health insurance in the USA. For many this could make health insurance unaffordable, thus, everyone who is undiagnosed should understand such potential consequences before they go the official diagnostic route. As mentioned, once it's on your medical record, it won't go away.

      @Joel K If the OP is ever in the hospital, and her celiac disease tests did come back positive and she does have celiac disease, she can just tell the doctors that she needs a gluten-free diet because she has celiac disease. They will listen to her, in all probability. And honestly, celiac disease is not taken very seriously inside hospitals, to say nothing of emergency departments, where in any case, the pt may not be able to verbalize anything, and the staff have to act right then.

      It is illogical not to disclose a positive celiac disease finding to your doctor, particularly if you're 60 years old. Human beings generally begin failing in one form or another from 60 onward and you might find yourself as an in-patient in a hospital or at an emergency room. Drugs often have minute amounts of gluten and hospital and nursing home food certainly contains gluten.  Here's another scenario: Your doctor sends you for annual labs and your WBC count and others come back out of range.  I frankly think one should leave politics out of the equation when it comes to your health. (Insurance isn't about your health, by the way) Or go ahead and don't let your doctor know.  Only one person will have to deal with the results of that decision.
