Mom just called me to say she checked the mail,and there was a letter from one of the Hospitals in Saskatoon saying that I have an appointment (consultation) with the specialist there on November 2nd :o:blink: ....thats only 13 days away.

BUT thats like a 8 month wait haha--which is pretty sad when you say its "urgent", to wait 8 months, dont you think? Well its better than nothing...

Oh i'm nervous yet excited at the same time...finally someone new to talk to who I've never seen before in my life!!!!

I'm gonna call my Aunty maybe tomorrow, still talk to her and... yay like I need to see my hmm..6th doctor of the year? lol

Glad to hear it. It sounds like your Mom is becoming a bit more supportive, too. Will she be driving you?

(I can't remember if you are in school in Yorkton or Regina.)

I'm in school in Yorkton this year...and yeah she said she'll be driving me. On friday I talked to the head guy at the college and he said its no problem..and said just keep pushing the teachers to tell me what I'll be missing or at least say what I missed during class when I'm in the bathroom--you'd be surprised how much you could fall behind in 15 mins!! Umm he also said to ask a couple of my classmates to keep me updated on things, too or help me out if I am having issues understanding something I missed. And i got a copy of the letter to give to the college. I've already missed more than allowed classes, but since its for medical reasons they obviously haven't kicked me out of classes. :P

Mom says it depends on the weather..if its supposed to snow, we'll go the day before (obviously safer that way). Again, the college seems ok with it so far..

11 days--I'm getting more nervous!!

      Self Diagnosed avoiding gluten 7 months later (Not tested due to eating gluten to test) update and question on soy

      A lot of people erroneously think soy is a problem for people needing to be on a gluten-free diet. Trents' comment above speaks to some celiacs also having a sensitivity to soy, but this is just some of them. However, soy sauce is something anyone following a gluten-free diet should be wary of. Many soy sauces contain wheat, which is where the soy/gluten...

      I have many of those same CMP irregularities from time to time, with the exception that my potassium is always normal. What I can tell you is that it is normal for everything not to be normal when you get a CMP done. I used to get a CBC and CMP done annually and there were always some things out of spec. Docs don't get excited about it for the most part....

      Not sure what you mean by "soy being like gluten". Soy does not cause a celiac reaction. However, soy is one of the foods that many celiacs don't tolerate well for other reasons. Eggs, corn and dairy are also on that list of foods that many of those with celiac disease seem to be sensitive to. But that doesn't mean that all celiacs are sensitive to any one...

Trents' comment above speaks to some celiacs also having a sensitivity to soy, but this is just some of them.  However, soy sauce is something anyone following a gluten-free diet should be wary of. Many soy sauces contain wheat, which is where the soy/gluten confusion comes into play. There is gluten-free soy sauce available, just read labels to be sure. I use San-J Tamari, which is gluten-free but does contain soy, in place of regular soy sauce.

What I can tell you is that it is normal for everything not to be normal when you get a CMP done. I used to get a CBC and CMP done annually and there were always some things out of spec. Docs don't get excited about it for the most part. It depends on the particular parameter (some are more important than others) and it depends on how far out of range it is. Docs also look for trends over time as opposed to isolated snapshots of this or that being out of spec at any given time. Our body chemistry is a dynamic entity.

Eggs, corn and dairy are also on that list of foods that many of those with celiac disease seem to be sensitive to. But that doesn't mean that all celiacs are sensitive to any one of them or all of them. It just means it's common. You may not have a problem with soy at all. Celiac disease is not a food allergy. It is an autoimmune response to the ingestion of gluten that creates inflammation in the small bowel lining that, over time, damages that lining.
