I'm sure some of you probably remember this, but it was exactly 4 years ago that I got sick with Celiac (January 1, 2003). I seriously dont know where the 4 years went by. It feels like it was just yesterday. Maybe its good that it goes by quick, that way when I get old I might not remember :lol:

Its been a tough 4 years obviously, and I hope that 2007 is a start to finding my answer to feeling better once again..

Hi Lisa

Best of luck with your goal for 2007. My new years resolution is the same, improve my health and work out why I feel this way.

Awww thanks, that is so sweet of you to say! it really means a lot to me :) ...

I'm replying to this on a short break in class lol...thats what I do in my spare minutes in school, browse the boards haha. I have some kinda bad news to start off this year: I have to drop one class. Theres a re-write available, but if i dont get basically 80% on the rewrite i still fail it no matter what, and you cant do the 2nd have of the class (this semester) without passing the 1st half. So I'm just gonna have an extra spare, and I can either retake it during the summer thru correspondence, or I can take it during university when i transfer.

I honestly dont even care. You people have all teached me that there are more important things than school, and that my health is #1 above all else, so I'm not gonna have no panic attack or breakdown whatever over it. So i dont graduate just yet...so what??? I gotta get my health fixed first, school will always be there.

That was random, but I just found that out this afternoon so I thought I should post about it before I forget to...

      CT with contrast.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      New labs are now very elevated

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?

      Chances of being coeliac

      @JettaGirl, "Coeliac" is the British spelling of "celiac". Same disease.

      By JettaGirl · Posted

      This may sound ridiculous but is this supposed to say Celiacs? I looked up Coeliacs because you never know, there’s a lot of diseases related to a disease that they come up with similar names for. It’s probably meant to say Celiacs but I just wanted to confirm.

      I was told it was to see how much damage has been caused. But just told CT with contrast not any other name for it.
