Ds's Endoscopy Scheduled

So finally after feeling like we were never going to get any tests, they scheduled DS's endoscopy for Monday Oct. 8th. I'm still nervous, but feel like it is the best way to see what is going on with him.

Tomorrow we go for a pre-op appt, a bone age xray, and a sweat test. Poor little guy, I'm glad that they are checking, but at the same time, he's been through too much already and I hope this is the beginning to the end of so many tests.

So if you could say a prayer for my little man, I would really appreciate it, and I will keep you posted on his results.

Good luck please let us know how you make out! I will be thinking of you and you DS!

Thanks nikki'smom!

The sweat test was a flop, he didn't even sweat after going through all that. The lady who scheduled the test said you can't do it during the endoscopy, so it was quite an ordeal putting him through that. I was so irritated once we were done and the lady said it is common not to get sweat from a little one! BOO, he was so mad and I was irritated that it didn't work after we put him through that.

I'll let you know how the endoscopy went.

      Thanks for this Russ, and good to see that it is fortified. I spend too much time looking for M&S gluten-free Iced Spiced Buns to have ever noticed this! That's interesting, Scott.  Have manufacturers ever said why that should be the case?

      In the USA only wheat-based breads are fortified with certain vitamins, but not gluten-free breads, thus we typically encourage celiacs to take multivitamin supplements.

      For people who can tolerate oats, Marks and Spencers sell a nice loaf:   https://www.marksandspencer.com/food/made-without-wheat-gluten-free-oaty-loaf/p/fdp60140058

      Not much use to Canadians but if any British Lindt lovers are looking at this, give Marks & Spencer's Swiss Truffles a try - no barley but same taste.  I'm pretty sure that in a blind tasting a coeliac would not know the difference - but then again, if you want to put this to the test, get  a non-Coeliac to try this!  I don't want anyone here to get glutened! https://www.marksandspencer.com/food/swiss-milk-chocolate-truffles/p/fdp21056736

      I'm based in the UK and haven't tried that bread but in the past have got on quite well with Genius. Mostly I tend to eat bread with added seeds just because I find it more interesting.   It is good to speak to another UK coeliac though as I am absolutely sure that up until recently a lot of the bread I was eating had added vitamins - but when I was in Tesco's today I couldn't find a brand that did.  Am I imagining this?
