in february i was admitted to hospital after being unable to eat for 4 days and put on a drip to save my life. i was sick for 6 months prior to that and couldnt work. i found out im celiac and have started to recover after going gluten free. its been 2 and a half months and im still having days where i dont get out of bed because of the pain. some days however im really good. being in bed so much is making me soooo depressed! how have other people gotten through this? has anyone else suffered like i have? please help :(

I think if you read irshheart's posts you will find some pretty severe suffering there. I am sorry you are going through such suffering too. I hope that you are having more good days than bad as time goes by. :)

hello! im sorry to hear you are not feeling well. i hope you are able to see small gains that give you hope! gotta have hope!

when i was not working and laying on the couch all day recovering, i tivo'd the entire series of 'ugly betty'. it was light, entertaining and made me laugh. maybe you can find something similar to bring a smile to the time that you must be resting. i know having 'down time' can be stressful, in it's own way. maybe try to make the best of it- knowing you are doing your best in the moment to take care of yourself and get well.

very best to you! hang in there!

      TTG IgA 0.30 U/ml: further tests?

      By RMJ · Posted

      Reference range 0.00 to 10.00 means that within that range is normal, so not celiac. There are other antibodies that can be present in celiac disease and they don’t all have to be positive to have celiac.  I’m sure someone else will post a link to an article describing them! Plus, if you are IgA deficient the celiac IgA tests won’t be accurate.

      Gluten Intolerance And Low White Blood Cell Counts?

      By cristiana · Posted

      Great to have another UK person on the forum!   Re: blood tests, it sounds as if you are being well monitored but if you have any further concerns about blood tests or anything else, do not hesitate to start a new thread. Cristiana

      The patient is positive for DQA1*05, one half of the DQ2 heterodimer

      By Lori Lavell · Posted

      Julia530 - I have the same gene structure and most of the symptoms you have experienced plus more.....I agree with you whole heartedly!! There are approximately 10 (NOT TWO) genes that can predispose a person to having Celiac Disease. I read in Pub Med that HLA DQA1:05  can result in Celiac Disease in approximately 1 in 875 people. While it is obviously more rare it is NOT BENIGN and should not go unnoticed. Go get the book "NO GRAIN, NO PAIN" and I highly suggest you read it cover to cover. It is written by a Chiropractor who quit his medical education when the VA wouldn't allow him to treat the Veterans with debilitating arthritis with a grain free diet. I have been grain free for over 10 years now.....the facts are we are being lied to! There is a form or gluten in every protein in every grain on the planet of which there are 1000 or more. Just because all they are testing for is the Gliadin in wheat is no excuse to report only partial facts.
