I Guess I Was A Little Crazy

I had my endoscopy & biopsy today and elected to do it without a sedative so I wouldn't be knocked

out the rest of the day. Even with a double spray of the stuff in my throat, & using every relaxation technique I could think of, it was VERY difficult & traumatic to go through. But, I did make it through, & once I remembered to breathe more & keep my eyes closed, it got a little easier. The nurses told me I'd done better than many of the people who DO have sedative, which I thought was interesting.

I'm still so tired today though, & feel nauseous from the whole thing. Glad it's over! Now I just have to wait & see what the biopsy shows. The doctor said he didn't see anything abnormal through looking directly, though I've only been back on gluten (a challenge) for 6 weeks now.

Today I'm back gluten free again! Whoo hoo! :D

Thanks for all the support!

Thanks, Judy. I appreciate the kind words! :)

I'll keep everyone posted on the biopsy results.

Enterolab did say I'm positive for all the gluten tests, plus casein too. :(

Also, I have 2 copies of the HLA-DQ1 genes, which explains all the neuro symptoms I've had.

WOW! I'm impressed too. I know having a baby without an epidural is a woman power but getting scoped without anything that is something I would not even consider doing myself, I bow down to you. Well I guess if I had a baby without and epi then I could have had a scope done without anything sedi. <_< or maybe a little crazy.

      From their website I see "organic barley leaf powder" as an ingredient. Keep in mind that the gluten is in the kernel, and not in the leaves. https://drinkag1.com/about-ag1/ingredients/ctr

      Before the rise of social media we were well known by a lot of doctors and were recommended by many, especially our Safe & Forbidden Lists, but as doctors get younger and younger this is probably not happening as much as before.

      Thanks Scott I will definitely check my vitamins and minerals to see what I am missing so then I can supplement. I was very concern about my Meniers syntoms and i tryed to find some alive. Now im just realizing that my celiac is provably the root cause of my Meniers none of the 12 doctors I saw told me anything about this.  This web site is so helpful, thanks to people like you we can get answers.

      Vitamin D deficiency can contribute to rib pain. Chest pain stemming from the ribs ccould be costochondritis, which involves inflammation of the cartilage connecting the ribs to the breastbone. This pain can range from mild to severe, potentially mimicking heart attack symptoms, and is often worsened by breathing or movement. Other potential causes include muscle strain, rib fractures, or even referred pain from other conditions.  It will also help to chose vegetables low in omega 6.
