Enterolab!

I asked our doctor about enterolab testing since my 18 month old blood tests all came back inconclusive. She looked into it. Had our lab look into it and tricare approved it! I am SO happy. They are doing the complete workup too! He got glutened and had a hard night last night so I can't wait for a final diagnosis. Now the hard part is getting a clean stool sample from my 18 month old! :huh:

That's Great!!! :D:D:D

It's nice to know that you can go to enterolab. It is so much better than having to wait until alot of damage is done. We just had testing done for the family (see signature).

Keep us posted on the results.

I have Tricare as wel. My husband is retired Navy. They pay for as many RAST (blood allergy) and Celiac tests as we need, but getting them to pay for skin tests is hard. If you ever have skin prick tests for allergies in the future, be sure to get preapproved way ahead of time.

Tricare is great! They even pay for medicines most other insurances will not. They pay for all our allergy and reflux meds, and the most we ever pay is 9 bucks. I love Tricare.

Great news about Tricare. My husband retired from the Army Reserves just last month so we are signing up for Tricare. You've given me hope that we might get reimbursed for tests at Enterolab.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.

      Taken Seriously

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.
