My "D" is not stopping. I seem to have anxiety right before I have to go and it's just a little at a time. Should I let it run its corse or try something to stop it? What does everyone do?

In my case I let it run it's course now as previous experience tells me in my case I am wasting my money by buying OTC meds to treat as they do nothing for me! Your best bet is to ask your doctor though.

I used to let it run its course because I didn't know what was wrong with me and I had always heard that if you have a stomach bug or ate something bad that it's better to get it all out of your system.

However, after being ill for months I started taking Immodium so that I wouldn't have to spend my whole life in the bathroom. It usually helps me.

Just my two cents.

It depends where I am. If I am at home or will be home soon after getting glutened, I'll let it run it's course. Otherwise I take immodium.

      Hello  I was glutened by a person that knew it.  I'm having

      as my last post stated, i was diagnosed via endoscopy on the 14th of june. i have been eating amazing home cooked meals, luckily, mainly cooked by my boyfriend who is extremely careful about contamination (and is an incredible cook at that). however, i find myself in a mental rut still. being 18, this is the time in my life where i should be exploring things, going out, having fun. yet every corner i turn i'm tortured by the amazing smell of something i can't have anymore. the wonderful sight of such yummy foods. it's near torture. if my boyfriend and his friend who lives with us buy something i can't have, they'll usually eat it outside of the house or the car or wherever we are - which is greatly appreciated - but even seeing a burger or chips or a sausage roll in their hands guts me almost beyond repair. i just wanna have it again too. i miss it. i feel left out and it makes me very sad all the time. it's not their fault. they are allowed to eat whatever they want to, whatever their intestines will allow. it just stings, bad. and i feel so ungrateful given i basically have a private chef who is doubly the love of my life. but it's just so hard. i know i'll adapt. i haven't given up hope.i just wanted to vent. thank you for reading

      Thank you. I must have misinterpreted a study or something. Thank you for the clarification. Much appreciated. Almost three years into my celiac diagnosis and I'm still learning new things.

      I wasn’t clear, glucagon and gadolinium were intravenous. I drank about 5 cups of the prep during 45 minutes. I feel very tired now, probably partly because I was nervous, and partly because I had to fast for 6 hours beforehand and wasn’t very hungry when I got home.
