Recently I have became physicly active again. Started to do alot of skateboarding and biking all over town everyday. three days ago I skated my board up a huge huge hill the whole way up (takes alot of exertion to ride a board uphill).. anyways these are to me leading up to what i think may be a sports hernia really not sure could just be nothing at all but when i googled what happend it was really the only thing i could find. Anyways i came home from work tonight after riding my bike home, got up the stairs came inside and had a 3xcough like 3 coughs really fast and hard in a row (recentlly stopped smoking cigs all the working out is doing a number on my lungs) well when i did this i did not turn my head like i normally do and next thing i know i feel this sharp shooting pain coming from my testicle region (deep in there though not the scrotum) like it was a really really sharp pain made me stop dead in my tracks and it felt like something was going to tear, stopped moving and after like 40 seconds the pain went away and i could get my boys back (one shot up really far) and then nothing no more pain or anything. This is not the first time this has happend but the last time was like 4 years ago. I was thinking maybe a sports hernia but any other suggestions? not one to self dianose, but unless someone thinks it could acually be something seriuse I really dont want to shell out the money to go to a doctor (dont really have the money). anyways sorry about the spelling errors its 3am and also yeah sorry if this topic is not ok was not sure where to post it and also sorry for anyone that read this and had to read things they never wanted to read

      EMA Result

      By trents · Posted

      Let me hasten to add that if you will be undergoing an endoscopy/biopsy, it is critical that you do not begin efforts to reduce gluten beforehand. Doing so will render the results invalid as it will allow the small bowel lining to heal and, therefore, obscure the damage done by celiac disease which is what the biopsy is looking for.

      Seeking advice on potential gluten challenge

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      That’s a really tough situation. A few key points: as mentioned, a gluten challenge does require daily gluten for several weeks to make blood tests meaningful, but negative tests after limited exposure aren’t reliable. Dermatitis herpetiformis can also be tricky to diagnose unless the biopsy is taken from normal-looking skin next to a lesion. Some people with celiac or DH don’t react every time they’re exposed, so lack of symptoms doesn’t rule it out. Given your history and family cancer risk, this is something I’d strongly discuss with a celiac-experienced gastroenterologist or dermatologist before attempting a challenge on your own, so risks and benefits are clearly weighed.

      https://celiac.org/glutenexposuremarkers/    yes, two hours after accidents ingesting gluten I am vomiting and then diarrhea- then exhaustion and a headache. see the article above- There is research that shows our reactions.

      EMA Result

      By trents · Posted

      Concerning the EMA positive result, the EMA was the original blood test developed to detect celiac disease and has largely been replaced by the tTG-IGA which has a similar reliability confidence but is much less expensive to run. Yes, a positive EMA is very strong evidence of celiac disease but not foolproof. In the UK, a tTG-IGA score that is 10x normal or greater will often result in foregoing the endoscopy/biopsy. Weaker positives on the tTG-IGA still trigger the endoscopy/biopsy. That protocol is being considered in the US but is not yet in place.
