Strange Email From Gi

Well I ahve already posted that my older daughter alivia tested + for celiac also. But the GI dr ran some more blood work and i emailed him the results and if they were ok. He said that her wbc are slightly decreased (her celiac screening they were also decreased in aug) and her allergy cells wre very high. And he then said the results of the biopsy should be interesting? I emailed him back asking what that means but have not heard back yet. We are still waitinf for the biopsy appt to be scheduled.

Happy Birthday Alivia!

I can't offer anything regarding results, but I do have to say that I think it is incredible that a GI makes himself available through e-mail - I would love that!

Hugs.

Although I do not have an understanding of the tests (numbers), I would think he would mean that the biopsy results will be "interesting" in that it will possible help determine a diagnosis. My daughter's blood test results were not high enough to alone conclusively diagnose Celiac, nor was the biopsy result alone, but as explained to me, together led them to a positive diagnosis. Hope this helps.

Has Alivia started the gluten-free diet yet? I'm not a big fan of the biopsy, and with the blood tests being positive and her sister having it, the odds are certainly in her favor that she has it, personally I wouldn't go through with the biopsy and just get on with getting her on the diet. (but that's just me).

Happy birthday to you!

Happy birthday to you!

Happy birthday, dear Alivia!

Happy birthday to you!

Ditto on a GI who's available via email.....WOW! Not sure what that means either..wish I could be of more help. Good luck!

Maybe he meant that he's interested to see what the results are. Which would make sense because why would anyone run a test if they didn't care about the result.

Happy Birthday, Alivia!

      Yes I saw. After reading the book I quickly became overwhelmed with that type of protocol. Unfortunately for me it seems unrealistic to eat with those guidelines. And I also find some of the information hard to understand and follow. I appreciate the recommendation though.

      Welcome, @Melvin McDowell! Just wanted you to know you are replying to a post that was made 21 years ago. It is unlikely that person is still monitoring this thread, especially since they are a "guest" poster and not registered as a member.

      My feeling is that histamine intolerance/MCAS is doesn't get enough press in the medical world and is greatly underdiagnosed.

      I just saw in Trent’s response something about the vitamins. Good to know.
