My Doctor Understood!

I saw the g.i doc today. I told him how I went gluten free by myself and explained all my prior symptoms, ect, ect. I was so worried he would want me to go back on gluten to get tested, but luckily he knew what he was talking about and said it's not worth it and the tests would more than likely come back negative anyways! He also told me the fiber meds my other doc recommended (which were giving me horrible stomach pain, bloating ect..) have gluten or may have it, so he is going to look up some meds that are gluten free and call me back! He thought it was great that i am able to follow the diet on my own b/c it is very healthy. He also made me laugh because the first thing he said when he walked through the door was "so you diagnosed yourself with cialac huh?" haha

I really didnt even need to go to the g.i. because I know gluten was the cause to my problems, but now my mom actually believes me that I did go and told her what he said! it's so sad that it takes a doctor to get someone to believe you!!! ugh! My mom even said "wow, you shouldve gone into medicine" Im just thinking....... "no, I just know my body" LOL

but either way I am relieved! now I just have an internal ultrasound for my monthly problems that are causing me hell! I'll be so glad when I get an answer for that! I think it may be the cause to my "c" also.
