More Of A Rant Than Anything

I'm sorry of using this board as a rant, but I need to vent and my family is sick of listening to me. I have 2 days to go till I go to my Dr. to find out the result of my bloodtest. I'm miserable....I have no energy and no interest in anything. I've been sick for so long, I don't even remember what "normal" feels like. I just want to feel better. :( I pray my doctor diagnoses me with something... anything.... (although I am fully convinced I have celiac)

Once again- sorry for the rant, but this group is so supportive!

Feel free to rant away. Most of us feel the need to do that every once in a while. I'm sorry that you are feeling so bad and I hope you find the answers when you go to the doctor. :)

uff, yeah, I remember how long that wait was for a diagnosis. I certainly hope you get some answers and that if isn't celiac it is treatable!

Sorry to hear that you aren't feeling well. I know what it is like... feeling sick of being sick... I hope that the doctors find out what is wrong. Keep us posted.

We understand! Let us know how your tests go. I was diagnosed in Feb and know my husband gets tired of me talking about my celiac at times--and probably this board too ! :P

This board was made for ranting! I for one am thankful to have found this board because it provides the opportunity to get things off your chest and speak to others who know how you feel. I look at this forum as therapy and I can't begin to imagine how I would deal with this disease if it wasn't for the internet and this board.

Rant away all you want.......And I hope you get good news and feel better!

      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!

      Welcome @Martha Mitchell, I too would like to know more about your prior lenses, and especially about the potential of gluten in lenses. In theory this should not harm most celiacs, as the autoimmune reaction normally begins in the gut, however, in those who are super sensitive or have dermatitis herpetiformis it may be a potential issue.

      It's most likely going to be a celiac disease diagnosis based on your blood test results, but wait for your doctor to give you a green light for going gluten-free, as they may want to do additional testing. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
