Rant About Classmates

Today was just an overall bad day for me...like honestly, since i've been up this morning everything that could go wrong has.

First of all: I've been achy all day (because it had started to snow early this morning, got a few inches of snow already, and they are threatening another 6 to 10 inches by tomorrow night). And of course the more it snows, the more joint pain I feel in my back and wrist.

Then, on my walk to school this afternoon, I have an asthma attack (not severe, but bad enough that I was wheezing pretty heavy by the time i got there, and nearly passed out).

During my first class, computers, THE best subject of mine...I discover I have done half of our major assignment wrong, so I'm gonna have to redo it on my own personal time (when I should be doing other work).

Then during my next class, I discover that the 15 or so questions I did were all wrong, but I used the number of sales instead of numbers of production, so I have to redo them ALL for wednesday.

Then during supper break, there was a few of us still in the classroom, and one lady was outside the door (which was locked). My hands were full so I couldnt exactly go and open it for her, but yet i was the one who got _______ at(you can fill in the blank :P ) for not opening the door!!!

SO supper was late, and i dig in my bag....NO PILLS. I forgot them at the house here in Yorkton. and by the time I warmed my instant macaronni meal and a piece of bread I was already late for my last class.

And then, for my last class of the night, I found out that the due dates on some take-home quizzes were changed, NOBODY informed me of this(I missed out the last class on that info because I was in the bathroom--like i would be anywhere else!!)

So now I'm grumpy with too much homework to do and have to eat yet again to feel more pain yet take my medication. ARGHHH :angry::angry:

*shuts up now*

Geez, what a mess of a day. Sorry it was so rotten.

Unfortunately, compassion is only truly learned through experience.

Thanks (to Nancy and Ursula too!) for being supportive...

I go to a community college, and all my teachers have jobs during the day of the classes they teach (like for exactly, my auditing teacher is an auditor, my law teacher is a lawyer, etc).

      Hi, thank you for the reply. Unfortunately, no other antibody tests were ordered. I am a 32-year-old male. About two months ago, I ate pancakes and then developed severe diarrhea that lasted the entire day. At night, I became unconscious due to fluid loss and was admitted to the ER, where I received IV fluids. Two days later, I ate bread again and once more developed severe diarrhea. I ended up in the ER again and received IV fluids. In my country, Pakistan, doctors are unfortunately not very thorough, so they treated me for a stomach infection. I visited three or four doctors, including a gastroenterologist, but it seemed like they just wanted to keep me on medications and IV fluids. Eventually, I did some digging myself and started connecting the dots. For years, I’ve had excessive gas buildup and frequent loose stools, but I never paid much attention to it. I also cannot easily digest dairy products. Two years ago, I had a CBC test that showed iron deficiency. My doctor told me to eat more meat and said it was nothing serious. However, for the past five years, I’ve also had severe motion sickness, which I never experienced before. Whenever I get on a bus or in a car, I sometimes lose consciousness for 10–20 seconds and wake up sweaty, and occasionally I feel the need to vomit. After more research on the internet, I came across gluten and celiac disease, so I got two related tests (TTG-IgA & TTG IgG) done along with a stool test and another CBC. The stool test showed weakly positive blood. Ever since eating those pancakes and bread, I’ve had a burning sensation in my gut. My doctor reviewed my tests, he told me to completely stop eating gluten and started me on IV fluids for 20 days, saying that I had severe inflammation in my gut. It has now been two months since I quit gluten, and I’m still not sure whether this is celiac disease or gluten intolerance. I don’t really trust doctors in Pakistan, so I thought I might get some help here.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SamAlvi! Were there any other antibody tests ordered? Particularly, was there a "total IGA" test ordered to check for IGA deficiency. When people are IGA deficient, celiac panel IGA test scores, such as the TTG-IGA, are likely not valid. If a total IGA test was not ordered, I would request such to be done. Note: "Total IGA" goes by other names as well. I will include a primer on celiac disease antibody testing which does a good job in covering the nomenclature variations connected with the various tests. Elevated IGG scores can certainly indicate celiac disease but they are more likely than elevated IGA tests to be caused by something else.

      Thank you— yes, valid and essential— The issue either doctors is that every one I have tried to talk to about this has essentially rolled their eyes and dismissed me as a hypochondriac, which gets discouraging. I believe a diagnosis would help me to be taken seriously by doctors as well as being validating, but can carry on without it.    There are many, probably most people in my area of my age and gender, who avoid gluten, but many just avoid it casually— eating the occasional plate of wheat pasta or a delicious-looking dessert, or baking cookies with wheat flour for gatherings.  That is not an option for me. I don’t eat other people’s cooking or go to restaurants that do not have strict cross- contamination procedures. It can be boring and lonely, and people do look at me as if I am being a bit dramatic but weeks of symptoms after a single small exposure has taught me to respect my experience.    Thank you very much for your response— sometimes I just need to hear that I am not crazy—

      You’re not crazy—some people have severe neurological and physical reactions to gluten, not just digestive issues. While testing can be tricky without eating gluten, documenting symptoms and seeing a specialist familiar with atypical celiac or gluten-related disorders can help. Your reactions are real, and it’s valid to be cautious.
