1st I don't know where to post this one but....

I went to the Dr. yesterday from having a headach for over a week. He gave Imatrex for when I have migranes, but I told him that I have been under a lot of stress lately and my sholder hurts into my head. So he gave me adavan. Has anyone taken this? Any comments?

I took it for the 1st time last night and felt great. I had a good nights sleep, but today I am not very hungry at all and I am usually hungry all day.

Any comments?

Hi- I took Ativan too. It's a benzodiazepene (anti-anxiety medication). The problem is that not all brands are gluten-free (mine wasn't) so it may have had gluten in it. Check the manufacturer (the one by Sandoz is gluten-free). It's a great medication and also used as a muscle relaxant but be careful because it can be addictive. If I took 1 mg two days in a row, i would have withdrawal, but I'm very sensitive to medication in general. B

I posted a question about anxiety/ocd/depression medications in the other forum on this website.

I forget the exact forum name, but it had "Medicine" in the forum title.

Hope this helps. :D

      It sounds like you're navigating a complex situation with your celiac disease, and it’s understandable to feel confused by the GI world! While celiac disease typically affects the duodenum and proximal small intestine, it’s possible for inflammation to extend to the ileum, especially in cases of more severe or longstanding damage. Since your tTG-IgA remains elevated despite a strict gluten-free diet, this could indicate ongoing healing or subtle gluten exposure. The ileal inflammation might still be related to celiac, though it’s good your doctor is ruling out other conditions like Crohn’s, given the nonspecific biopsy findings. Some people with celiac do report ileal involvement, particularly if they have refractory disease or delayed healing. Keeping close follow-up with your GI and possibly revisiting your diet for hidden gluten sources could help. Hang in there—it’s a journey, and you’re doing great by staying proactive!

      hi, how are u now? any answers?
    • mermaidluver22
      I have biopsy-confirmed celiac disease and have been strictly gluten-free, but my tTG-IgA is still elevated, so I know I'm still healing. I recently had a capsule endoscopy that showed small erosions and inflammation only in the distal ileum — nothing in the upper small intestine. My GI isn’t calling it Crohn’s yet because biopsies showed only mild, non-specific inflammation with no chronic features. Has anyone experienced celiac impacting their ileum as well? the gi world is so confusing! thank u ❤️
