well yesterday i lost my job that i had for almost 5 years i got kicked out of the store. so i can definatly not afford dx visits anymore. i had a visit earlyer in the week and he told me i needed to start to reintroduce dairy since i still had not even tried, so i had a cup of yogurt yesterday and it was tastey and i felt fine all day infact i had the best bm i have had in a long time. wake up this morning have another wonderfull bm but there was something it it that causes consern (read only if your not eating) in the middle of one of the stools was a green glob( like the size of a marble round and everything) it was just like a solied green chunk looked like nose snot but balled up WTf could this be? could this just be something thats finally been killed off from my colon now that im eating yogurt(getten those enzymes i have not had for a year) or is this a sign of something more seriuse??

Lister, Now is the time to go to your local social services office and get on Medicaid. Wtihout a job you should now qualify for emergency assisstance.

None here can diagnose you and even the ones of us who may be qualified to do so would not be able to do it without examining you first. You may want to visit WebMD they have a board that has sections where a nurse can answer whatever questions you may have. Perhaps they can help.

were on the site? i cant find it anywere. i think it is just possibly backup since before this started i had not used the restroom for 4 days but now that i got dairy in me im going like 4 times a day nice and perfect just the bms look like they are from hell

A thought for you. A green marble looking blob could possibly be a gallstone. But like was suggested, you should go apply for medical coupons. Since you are not working you could also apply for food stamps and money to help with rent etc. Don't let your pride get in the way. This could be a good oppurtunity for you to get a medical diagnosis.

I agree with them Lister, this may an opportunity in disguise. See if you have county health services. I'm not sure where to start - maybe the government portion of your phone book under county or state. I used county mental health services when I was much younger, out of work and having a complete nervous breakdown. Good luck Lister - Take care

is this a good thing that i passed the stone out or a bad thing like is a sign of something bad or is it good clense type thing?? cuz i looked up some pictures and i am like 100% positive that is what it is

also a note- if you are re-introducing dairy do not make the mistake of eating fruit with it, i had yogurt and a orange today and that was a huge mistake a acid+base=no fun

      It is more likely code for “we think there really was a good response to the treatment, but it was small or in a small percent of subjects so it would take a large clinical trial to try to prove it.”

      Thank you so much for your replies. Luckily the rash went away when I completely swore off gluten. It took several months but I have not had a flare in months. So a biopsy is no longer possible. The itch was terrible and apart from bleaching my skin the steroid lotions and potions did nothing. The Gliadin is for accidents and shall be a part of my travel kit from now on. This past exposure has made a me a little leery about eating anything that was not cooked in my kitchen or a dedicated gluten-free restaurant. As much as I used to love baked goods, I am cured and have become quite the gluten free baker to the point that friends and family forget that my cakes/cookies/and bread are not "real". I guess I will have to wait for the new blood test to come out to get confirmation but I have a suspicion that the rash was dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Hello, I just wanted to share with the frustration of skin issues and seeing dermatologist and medications not working for years, I did my own healing experiment. As of last week I have been taking a drop internally under the tongue of Vetiver and putting on topically on sores Yellow/Pom.I am seeing a extreme difference at a rapid time.Im also noticing my nails a little harder. Ive always been into natural properties because I feel its safer for the body.I know short time, but really seeing a difference. I also feel the the trapped gases that causes bloating helps break down as well.Curious if any body else can benefit from and has tried. Products is made by Doterra by Dr Hill

      I agree with @trents, and the rash you described, especially its location and resistance to steroids, sounds highly characteristic of dermatitis herpetiformis, which is the skin manifestation of celiac disease. The severe and prolonged reaction you're describing five days after a small exposure is, while extreme, not unheard of for those with a high sensitivity; the systemic inflammatory response can absolutely last for several days or even weeks, explaining why you still don't feel right. Your plan to avoid a formal gluten challenge is completely understandable given the severity of your reactions, and many choose the same path for their well-being. While experiences with GliadinX (they are a sponsor here) are mixed, some people do report a reduction in the severity of their symptoms when taken with accidental gluten, though it is crucial to remember it is not a cure or a license to eat gluten and its effectiveness can vary from person to person. For now, the absolute best advice is to continue being hyper-vigilant about cross-contamination—buffets are notoriously high-risk, even with good intentions. Connecting with a gastroenterologist and a dermatologist who specialize in celiac disease is essential for navigating diagnosis and management moving forward. Wishing you a swift recovery from this last exposure. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:
