oh man you must feel like barfing with all that gluten i went to the doctor today and my celiac disease showed up after all those years of being gluten-free im still having stomach prombles ahhhhh but ive been cheating here and there but like you i felt sick to my stomach after a day or so i was fine but i dont get as to why all thoses years of being gluten-free it still shows up in a biopy

Yeah puking is what i feel like doing. And the toilet loves me even more. I've barely made it to the bathroom 8 times today, and I can feel it coming on yet again! At least it means I can just fill more evil food in me :lol: (gotta laugh about it, right?)

Only downside is my dad being cruel today, but calling me a wimp, etc. blah.

Sigh... For some reason the saying "Be nice to your children because they're the ones who will choose your nursing home" just springs to my mind right now. Hm.. Wonder why...? ;)

HA yeah. Well dad not so bad, but mom...EVERYONE she has talked to tonight, she's told them that not enough fibre and water is the cause of my pains in my large intestine...when what he said was try eating higher fibre and drinking more water, and that my pains are definitely in my colon. a BIG difference between the truth and what she's saying, dont you think?

And the worst part is the eating gluten, of course. Had to start that yesterday. SO i treated myself to some pizza and breadsticks, that'll be my lunch again today. And I'm still determined to eat a sub and some donuts before this weekend is done. I already feel like puking just from the pains.

Theres your story. Keep replying if you want, I still need all your help to get me thru the next 4 days.

Hi Lisa, I am so sorry you are having to go through this. Why is the doctor making you eat gluten after the endo but before the biopsy reports are in? If it is making you feel so ill have you contacted them to let them know? You seem to suffering so much I hope it gets better soon.

Thanks. You must have not read the part where I explained that eating the gluten is for another doctor, and for the endoscopy/colonoscopy I have on Tuesday ;)

Speaking of gluten affects...I couldnt fall asleep until about 5:30 this morning (because of the pain) and then when i DID get to sleep I had a nasty nightmare :blink: (i'm assuming i can blame gluten for that too?)

I am soooo tired *goes to make some strong coffee :lol: *

I did miss that. I feel so bad for you. Since it is making you feel so awful I hope the other endo gives a clear result. I know this can't be easy for you at all. It is not surprizing that you had a nightmare you are going through a lot right now. (((((((hugs))))))

Thanks again *hugs you back*. It is very very very hard to deal with this. Surprisingly, I havent had a panic attack or anything yet. I've been on the verge tho thats for sure. I'm gonna try to get an internet connection when I'm in Calgary, so I can keep posting. I'll probably just start a new post on Monday tho. I'm so glad you guys keep replying to this one, each reply makes me a little more calmer about things.

Hi, I hope you are feeling better. What a tough time you've been having!

I just wanted to suggest that maybe brown rice is not the huge source of fiber that most people think--I believe there is much more fiber in fruit and vegetables. I hate to say it, but if you haven't been eating a lot of those (like, WAY more of them than the brown rice), then your idiot doctor might actually be right.

Can you maybe eat a little less of the brown rice and a little more of the rabbit food when you're done with all your testing?

Also, if you are having such severe intestinal problems, you aren't really drinking coffee, are you? That would be one of the irritating things you could put in your stomach (besides for gluten, of course). Caffeine is also linked to a whole host of neuro problems, which is not what you need right now!

I havent been drinking too much coffee, I've been filling up on orange juice. I just bought a 2 L jug of it yesterday, and its already over half gone. Since i've had such nasty diarrhea, I've been drinking a lot of fluids (or trying to).

PS: I forgot what Kraft dinner tasted like :lol:

Hope all goes well tomorrow. Update us when you can.

I have gone through this twice and I'm terrified of doctor's. I can say the worst thing about this is the IV. Trust me the only thing I remember is them putting a biteguard in my mouth and then the next thing I know I'm back in my room with fiance. I know you'll be alright and I will keep you in my prayers. =^.^=

      Celiac and allergic to common subs and adds in prepared foods

      By DAR girl · Posted

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      Disregarded

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By Oldturdle · Posted

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By plumbago · Posted

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
