"if This Is What I Think It Is, It'll Go Away."

I just thought I'd share how f*****g stupid internists are! Have a laugh at this.

During my second visit to the first idiot internist that I saw, she felt my stomach, wrote me a prescription for ammoxicillin, and said, "If this is what I think it is, it'll go away." HA! That's why I'm still sick. She also thought I had an ulcer and so did the other idiot internist. I'm supposed to see that moron in a month--I threw the free Aciphex bottles have gave me away as soon as my IgG results came back.

Gotta love it!!!

I just read the "leaving post" in tutorial forum section for this site and apologize if this post sounds a little vindictive and rude. :(

It's your opinion and sometimes doctors can be ignorant... and you should really try to go see a GI doc

I saw an internist who looked at me and told me it was IBS and I was just a nervous person. He did not even do any tests at all. I never went back.

I found one :D He's the one who got me tested for gliadin antibodies--which is why I'm here.

      Welcome to the forum, @SuzanneL! Which tTG was that? tTG-IGA? tTG-IGG? Were there other celiac antibody tests run from that blood draw? Was total IGA measured? By some chance were you already cutting back on gluten by the time the blood draw was taken or just not eating much? For the celiac antibody tests to be accurate a person needs to be eating about 10g of gluten daily which is about 4-6 pieces of bread.

      I've recently received a weak positive tTG, 6. For about six years, I've been sick almost everyday. I was told it was just my IBS. I have constant nausea. Sometimes after I eat, I have sharp, upper pain in my abdomen. I sometimes feel or vomit (bile) after eating. The doctor wanted me to try a stronger anti acid before doing an endoscopy. I'm just curious if these symptoms are pointing towards Celiac Disease?

      I'm sorry to hear about what you're going through. It must be really frustrating and uncomfortable. Have you talked to your healthcare provider about these sudden sweating episodes? It might be helpful to discuss this with them to rule out any other underlying issues or to see if there are specific strategies or treatments that can help manage this symptom. Additionally, staying hydrated and wearing breathable clothing may provide some relief.
