Ok, so my sons appt. with a ped. GI isn't until the 4th of Oct and is better than the end of Oct as first planned but still, that is 4 weeks away! He got gluten somehow yesterday or maybe the day before and today's poop was green and yellow with blood mixed in and floated. Gaah! I just want this all fixed! I also have tried to contact the nutritionist at this center he's going to and am wanting to know how we should prepare him for it and she hasn't gotten back to me. We called our Ped. 3 days ago and he still hasn't called back either, why can't things just be easier!

Sorry, I needed to vent. I'm so tired of seeing issues with my little boy, knowing he's being further damaged. I just want to be done already.

I feel your frustration!! I have an 18 mos old that has been in and out of Dr's offices all summer. We live hours away from Pedi specialists, it has been exhausting and we still don't have answers.

Are you suspecting that your son has Celiac? Im sure you know that they'll want him to be on the Gluten. Have you tried to get on the cancellation list at the GI. That has worked for me. Doctors offices do not call back when they say they are going to, you have to keep calling. We just waited a week for an office to call us back regarding some blood work. Your best bet, if you have questions is to ask to talk to your Dr's nurse. They usually are willing to answer questions and they will ask the Dr if they don't know the answer. I try to get on a first name basis with them, so they recogize my name when I call. I wish you luck and I hope you get the answers you are looking for.

      Could my infant son have been glutened? Hear me out.

      By trents · Posted

      Celiac disease is an autoimmune condition with a genetic base. The the potential for developing the disease is inherited. but remains latent until triggered by some stress event. Thus, there is an epigenetic component to celiac disease. Once the genes are awakened from dormancy, celiac reactions are triggered by the ingestion of gluten.

      Newbie possible glutening help

      By Beeroney · Posted

      Hi all, just ticked over into my first year gluten-free after being diagnosed last October and feeling a bit rough after a possible glutening. Diagnosed at the ripe age of 38, never been ill in my life before this so safe to say my health anxiety is now borderline unmanageable. I think I may have been glutened a week ago, since then I’ve had that familiar hot/burning feeling in my gut, gas, bloating and all the Bristol Stool chart types in one sitting. I know people are different but does this sound familiar to anyone? Stomach was churning like mad last weekend like it did when I first ill before diagnosis. Acid reflux(which was my first symptom way back when) also reared its ugly head, which I probably the worst symptoms imo. Anxiety is probably up more so as I’m leaving on holiday to USA in 3 weeks time, which would be pretty much ruined if my guts are still messed by the time we leave.  Any words of wisdom appreciated    Bryan

      This doesn't answer your question but I'm not sure if you know that this intolerance is passed down from mother to child through Cord blood and or breast milk.

      I’m having this type of MRI this afternoon,  What specifically do you want to know?  From what I’ve read, not all facilities use the same drink prep.

      Manitol and mri

      By nanny marley · Posted

      Hi I've been told I need a MRI on my bowels , I was booked for a colonoscopy, but because of my sever back issues and trapped nerve it can't be done , the nurse told me I will have to have a manitol drink a hour before the scan , I'm just a bit worried has I have issues with sweeteners like even a little,  I get a weird throat and ears and I've read it is a similar substance , not sure if anyone has had one of these scans or could give me some advise on the drink prep thanks in advance 😄
