Did Your Doctor Call With Biopsy Results?

Hi. I had my EGD two weeks ago tomorrow. My doctor thought that I might have ulcer's or hiatal hernia. After the EGD he said I had gastritis, excessive acid, and the possible beginnings of celiac disease. He took biopsies to confirm the celiac disease. I researched celiac disease and lo and behold I have every symptom including the infertility and recurrent miscarriages along with the other really common symptoms. The only pregnancy I carried to term was when I cut out carbs for fear of flaring up endometriosis. I hadn't heard anything as of Friday so I called the office. They said I tested positive for H. Pylori from my blood work, but they didn't see my biopsy results. She said the results might be in the doctor's folder at the hospital. I have a follow-up on the 30th. Did your doctor wait until your follow-up or did he/she call you? I'm really hoping for positive biopsy and an answer to my poor health for the past few years. I'm getting worried that I haven't received a call.

      Waiting Gastroenterology review

      That means the normal range (i.e. not celiac disease) would be a result less than 14.99.  Your result is WAY above that. Some gastroenterologists would diagnose that as celiac disease even without a confirming biopsy because it is more than ten times the top of the normal range.

      Diagnosis and further testing Celiac

      By Redanafs · Posted

      Hi everyone. Back in 2022 I had blood work drawn for iga ext gliadin. Since then I’ve developed worse stomach issues and all other health issues. My doctor just said cut out gluten. He did no further testing. Please see my test results attached. I just need some direction cause I feel so ill and the stomach pain is becoming worse. Can this test show indications for other gastrointestinal diseases?

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.
