I have been going to a new dr, who is an osteopath. Last week he ordered a bunch of blood work because I have been having a lot of pain in my hands and my heart rate is elevated. I got the results today. Everything was within normal range, except:

Liver:

Alkaline Phos. 120 (normal 30-115)

SGPT (ALT) 69 (normal 0-29)

Sed Rate 47 (normal 0-20); Less than a yr ago, it was around 27

Urine:

Appearance: Cloudy (normal clear)

Blood: 1+ (normal negative)

RBC 10-19 (normal 0-2)

WBC 3-9 (normal 0-2)

Mucous: Few (normal none)

Amorph Crystals: Mod (normal none)

He told me that I was fine, and there was nothing else he could do for me. He said I needed to eat better, and he recommended I go on a Mediterranean Diet <_< . He started to order some further heart testing, but decided not to because I had an ECHO done a few months ago and it was normal. He said my liver enzymes were probably off because I might have a "Fatty Liver."

My RA factor was negative, my cholesterol was great, Electrolytes and kidney were normal.

ANyone have any ideas?? I am goiong to call the rheumatoligist tomorrow that I saw a few months ago. I am just lost now. I think I will find a new dr, again. :angry:

      A little about me and my celiac disease

      I’m really sorry you’re dealing with this, and what you’re describing is very real—even if other people can’t see it. Many kids and teens with celiac disease or other autoimmune conditions can have chronic joint and body pain, fatigue, and flares that come and go, which is exactly why it can look “fine one day and awful the next.” That doesn’t mean you’re...

      Don't let one bad apple spoil the bunch,. as they say. Many health care professionals are doing their jobs the best they can, so it's important to try to work with them in a respectful manner, if when they might be wrong about something.

Many kids and teens with celiac disease or other autoimmune conditions can have chronic joint and body pain, fatigue, and flares that come and go, which is exactly why it can look “fine one day and awful the next.” That doesn’t mean you’re faking anything. You deserve to be believed and supported, especially at school and at home. It may help to talk with a gastroenterologist or rheumatologist who understands autoimmune pain in teens, and to let a trusted adult help advocate for accommodations when you need them. Wanting to feel like a normal kid makes complete sense—and you’re not alone in feeling this way.
