Wish us luck. Me more than Emmah LOL.

I'm the one going to tell him no way is she going back on gluten for a biopsy. I normally have a big mouth and I sure don't scare easy, this is silly, I'm acting like a scared little girl.

The big bad dr's going to get anyry with me.

Keep us in your thoughts and on top of that luck hope for a DX's on diet response PLEASE!!

PS Emmah grew enough in the last 3 months gluten-free that she was able to go into swimming lessons because she can touch the bottom...It was funny, she has to hop to keep her mouth out of the water.

She's very excited

Well that went as bad as I thought,worse actually.

I was bawling the whole time after we left that office. She was a huge BI*CH. She wanted to know why emmah was wasting her time if she was better. she also said if the ttg say's she doesn't have celiac's then she doesn't and thats all there is too it. better or not. she said she has a wheat allergy or something like that or an intolerence.

I can't see a different GI because thats all there is where we live. She staying gluten-free so that's all that matters. I see her ped monday because I want to jerk about this woman and get allergy testing done.

How upsetting. I'm really sorry for your experience with that doctor. Some doctors act real stupid :blink: . She doesn't deserve you as a customer. Hope the ped has better news. You're doing great, don't let a stupid doctor intimidate you. Good luck on your future testing.

Hugs, Stef

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50. US 2024 - Increased Risk of Herpes Zoster Infection in Patients with Celiac Disease 50 Years Old and Older Sweden 2018 - Increased risk of herpes zoster in patients with coeliac disease - nationwide cohort study

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.

      You might try Heallix.  It's a silver solution with fulvic acid. I just put the solution on with a cotton ball.  It seemed to stop the nerve pain. Again,  not in your eyes or ears.   Go to heallix.com to read more about it and decide for yourself Also,  I do think nerve and celiac combined have a lot to do with your susceptibility to shingles breaking out.

      Celiac disease requires both genetic potential and a triggering stress event to activate the genes. Otherwise it remains dormant and only a potential problem. So having the genetic potential is not deterministic for celiac disease. Many more people have the genes than actually develop the disease. But if you don't have the genes, the symptoms are likely being caused by something else.

      Yes, i pulled raw ancetry data and saw i have 2/3 markers for DQ2.2 but have heard from friends in genetics that this raw data can be wildly innacurate
