Upcoming Surgery

I have been going back and forth to my doctor, specialists, and surgeons for the last two weeks to schedule the surgery I posted about a few weeks ago. I am ready to get it over with when I find out that it is more complicated than the surgeon I went to can do so I have to go to a larger hospital in another town. I am not overly worried I just want to get it over. Now instead of the three masses they found being in my small intestine, where they can just cut out 18 inches-which they are going to do anyway, the masses are seperate from the intestines and they have to come out. The surgery will entail both proceedures. Hopefully the surgery will be next week. I appreciate all the thoughts and prayers in the past and would like to ask for you to continue to remeber me a little longer. Thanks for letting me vent.

      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/

      A lot to think about here. Does anyone have any recommendations for third party laboratories that will do full panel celiac screens private pay in the U.S.?

      You don't need an official diagnosis to request a gluten-free diet in either a hospital or nursing home--this can be requested by anyone. The higher costs associated with existing conditions for life insurance is a reality, and regardless of your politics, it could become a reality again for health insurance in the USA. For many this could make health insurance unaffordable, thus, everyone who is undiagnosed should understand such potential consequences before they go the official diagnostic route. As mentioned, once it's on your medical record, it won't go away.

Had blood work with new gi and of course blood work shows fabulous, nothing wrong. Im not eating the foods im not supposed too.Im stressed and fired of fighting of my disregarded celiac.
