Just Had A Egd/biopsy

I'm wondering how everyone felt after their biopsy. I have had trouble sleeping and staying asleep. I have a feeling they gave me something to counter act the meds they gave me during the procedure and that is keeping me from getting a good sleep. I am very sensative to meds. Also my stomache was hurting and feeling bloated last night even though I felt fine when I left the hospital. I didn't have this discomfort until around 11pm at night. Better today but feeling bloated and a little acky tonight. Could just be what I'm eating because I'm not gluten free yet. I won't have the results until the 25th. Also the doctor had blood drawn to check for pernicious(sp?) anemia. They had a lot of trouble getting a good vein both for the IV and for drawing blood so my hands are all bruised up ;o( Anyway I just wanted to hear of other's experiences with the biopsy.

I hope you are feeling better today. It does take some time for all the drugs to get out of your system. I had an extreme reaction to the drugs they gave me for mine so I also felt really bad and won't go into that but for you I think today you will feel much better. You can now go gluten-free, you have had the endo so now is the time to start the diet. You may know the answer by how you feel before you go back to find out the results.

If you are feeling worse today though do be sure to contact the doctor and let them know. Rarely some folks (like me) will have an adverse reaction to Versed, the drug they usually use, so if you should have any 'unusual' effects, like extreme depression be sure to let the doctor know.

You have come to a good place for info and support. Please feel free to ask any question you need to and or vent if needed.

      makes sense. sometimes you learn one path and never question it until you see someone take a different path

      Interesting I read that toasted kasha groats have nutty flavor which I thought like oatmeal with banana and yogurt. Yes quinoa I have for dinner looking to switch oatmeal to buckwheat for breakfast. I have to look into amaranth 
    • Aretaeus Cappadocia
      I've never tried bananas or yogurt with kasha. It would probably work but in my mind I think of kasha as being on the savory side so I always add butter, peanut butter, or shredded cheddar cheese. Next time I make it I will try yogurt and banana to see for myself. Amaranth has a touch of sweet and I like to pair it with fruit. Quinoa is more neutral. I eat it plain, like rice, with chicken stock or other savory things, or with coconut milk. Since coconut milk works, I would think yogurt would work (with the quinoa). I went to the link you posted. I really don't know why they rinse the kasha. I've eaten it for decades and never rinsed it. Other than that, her recipe seems fine (that is, add the buckwheat with the water, rather than wait until the water is boiling). She does say something that I forgot: you want to get roasted/toasted buckwheat or you will need to toast it yourself. I've never tried buckwheat flakes. One potential issue with flakes is that there are more processing steps and as a rule of thumb, every processing step is another opportunity for cross-contamination. I have tried something that was a finer grind of the buckwheat than the whole/coarse and I didn't like it as much. But, maybe that was simply because it wasn't "normal" to me, I don't know.

      The basic seems more like oatmeal. You can also add yogurt banana to it like oatmeal right. I see rinsing as first step in basic recipes like this one https://busycooks.com/how-to-cook-toasted-buckwheat-groats-kasha/ I don't understand why since kasha is toasted and not raw. What about buckwheat flake cereal or is this better to go with.

      Celiac disease can have neurological associations, but the better-described ones include gluten ataxia, peripheral neuropathy, headaches or migraine, seizures, cognitive symptoms, and, rarely, cerebral calcifications or white-matter changes. Some studies and case reports describe brain white-matter lesions in people with celiac disease, but these are not specific to celiac disease and can have many other explanations. A frontal lobe lesion could mean many different things depending on the exact wording of the report: a white-matter spot, inflammation, demyelination, a small old stroke, migraine-related change, infection, trauma, vascular change, seizure-related change, tumor-like lesion, artifact, or something that resolved on repeat imaging. The word “transient” usually means it changed or disappeared, which can happen with some inflammatory, seizure-related, migraine-related, vascular, or imaging-artifact situations.  Hopefully they will find nothing serious.
