Oh my god, i was nervous earlier today, now I even worse ...

I find out my ultrasound results (FINALLY!) in 11 hours, and I'm scaredddddd/nervousssss. I want to know what that red/yellow spot I saw on the ultrasound screen was, but yet I dont??? If that makes sense?

I also need to remember everything my family doctor needs to say in the letter to the specialist (again), and to ask him if he'll refer me out of province if I feel I need to be...

I promise I'll let you know how it goes. Like I have said million times before, i dont care what the ultrasound shows, I still want to see a specialist .. ultrasound will not convince me that my problems are solved.

But stilllllll. I am so not going to sleep tonight :unsure::o:(

I don't know what area they ultrasounded but I recently had ultrasounds done on both my heart and my abdomin. I had normal results but like you I saw some red and yellow on the screen both times. I know it can be disconcerting to see but try not to worry about it. Sometimes they use colors to show different things. For example on my heart scan they used a green color to show the flow into my heart and a red for the outflow. Sometimes a tech will answer questions. Mine told me what the colors were when I asked but naturally didn't say what the doctors interpretation would be. In addition if they do find something thats real wrong they will often call a doctor into the room right then. Try to relax and I hope everything goes well.

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Definitely worth speaking to your gastroenterologist about this. My own told me that by using Gaviscon a barrier forms over the contents of the stomach and stops gas and acid irritating the throat. In fact, he said to me that because I found relief using Gaviscon that was a very clear indicator that reflux was the cause of that particular issue. A wedge...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      I did get the pneumonia vaccine about 4 years ago. I had this amazing allergist who did all those vitamin deficiencies test and told to get that vaccine. Unfortunately she retired. I haven’t been to an allergist in a few years, I’m not sure what my levels are now. I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Yes I do have acid reflux. I’m not on anything for it at the moment. I sometimes wonder if that’s what it could be because I get heart burn every night. I may revisit my gastrointestinal doctor again. Thanks for the reply

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways. I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux. Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Since initially getting your D checked a few years ago, has it since rebounded to normal levels? Sounds like at some point you got it checked again.

Unfortunately she retired.  I haven’t been to an allergist in a few years,  I’m not sure what my levels are now. I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young etc. But yes I think I should at the very least get a different opinion. Thank you for your reply

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways.  I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux.  Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following a holiday to France in 2019, where I had been exposed to gluten.    The reflux continued into the autumn and winter, my throat itched to begin with, particularly after meals, but it then that feeling of irritation seemed to spread to my lungs.  I even found it difficult to breathe on occasion. What stopped it in its tracks was using a wedge pillow at night, following a reflux diet (you can find them online), not eating 2-4 hours before bed and also having a dose of Gaviscon Advanced at night, which forms a barrier so that acid/food can't go back up your esophagus.  The throat irritation faded, and then I found it easier to breathe again. Just mentioning in case it could be a contributing factor.
