I Really Haven't Disappeared Completely

Hey guys!

I know, i haven't been on in FOREVER like over a year probably, and i feel bad cause i've missed so much.

I think it really has been like a year since i've actually talked to everyone, sad...

So here's an update

I'm at university of puget sound, great amazing school, that is also REALLY good with gluten-free stuff...plus i've got a kitchen downstairs in my dorm so i can cook/bake gluten-free stuff there if i want gluten-free stuff...

I had the redo of my jaw surgery on August 4, 2008, a week before i started school, got discharged from the hospital like 1 week before school started, it was really hard in the beginning to be on the liquid diet dealing with orientation activities etc. But now i'm back to basically eating normally now...

School is great, crazy amout of work, just got done with midterms WOOHOO! and i'm going to visit my sister in portland for the weekend for fall break, gonna go pig out on gluten-free food there (corbett/hawthorne fish house, grolla etc...)

Just posting this to say hi, and again apologies that i haven't been online nearly as much...School takes priority and it's been a lot of work this year so far, 1/2 way done with first semester of college!! yay hahah

how has everyone been?

<3 m

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!
