Had My Surgery And It Is Not A Mesenteric Cyst

Hi All

It ended up being a tumor in the appendix and the appendix was attached to the colon. He had a difficult time getting it off. He said he has never seen anything like it. We're waiting for the pathology report on Friday. Pray it is not malignant. If so they will have to go back in and take the right colon. I really need all your guys prayers. I am home and will let you know.

Thanks

Part of my health meditation/prayer is something a girlfriend said to me. Imagine and feel a bright light coming down and surrounding you, your bed at night, and including all your family members and/or your house as the light gets brighter. I imagine the light to be God's love, but you can imagine it to be a spirit, the love of mother nature or just pure joy turned into light, whatever. It helps me beat back anxiety, hope it helps you too.

Sending my warm, healthy thoughts and healing prayers out into the ethernet for you. Let us know.

Dear Blessings, prayers from me also. But try not to worry, I know several people with celiac that have had the odd non-malignant tumor... Hope you feel better soon!

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      Is there a digestive enzyme that helps build a healthier gut? I see people taking them but not sure what really works

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped".

      hi, i want to say thank you to you and @trents . after 2 phone calls to my GI, her office called me back to tell me that a blood test was “unnecessary” and that we should “follow the gold standard” and since my biopsy did not indicate celiac, to follow the no dairy and sucraid diet. i luckily have expendable income and made an appt for the labcorp blood t...

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong. yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped". Your Serum IGA 01 (aka, "total IGA") at 245 mg/dl is within normal range, indicating you are not IGA deficient. But I also think it would be wise to take your doctor's advice about the sucraid diet and avoiding dairy . . . at least until you experience healing and your gut has had a chance to heal, which can take around two years. After that, you can experiment with adding dairy back in and monitor symptoms. By the way, if you want the protein afforded by dairy but need to avoid casein, you can do so with whey protein powder. Whey is the other major protein in dairy.
