Hi everyone!

I made it through both procedures with flying colors. My Dr told me he cut off 2 polyps one was huge he said they have both been sent off to pathology. He did say that it was a good thing we did this now because that huge polyp could have turned into cancer!!!!

I have to go back in 2 weeks for results but I will be on vacation so I have to reschedule my follow up appointment!

I am still on a clear liquid diet but just til 8 pm and boy 8 pm can't get here fast enough!!!

He took several biopsies of my small intestines too! Should ge those results during my follow up!!!

Thanks so much for everything guys!!!!

:)

You must be relieved to have this done and to have found the polyps so early! And now you get to go on vacation that you truly deserve.

Thanks for reporting back - I was wondering how you were doing! :)

Thanks girls!!! Yes I am VERY thankful we were able to find them early. My Dr still sent it off to be tested just to make sure!! And much to my surprise I am not obsessing & worrying over it. Usually I would be making myself sick with worry!!

I just shudder to think that if I had waited the normal 13 more years (until I was 50) to have a colonoscopy it more than likely would have been cancer! SCARY!!!!!!!

And yes I plan on enjoying my vacation to the fullest extent!!!

Thanks again!!!

:D

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.

      CT with contrast.

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      New labs are now very elevated

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?

      Chances of being coeliac

      @JettaGirl, "Coeliac" is the British spelling of "celiac". Same disease.

      This may sound ridiculous but is this supposed to say Celiacs? I looked up Coeliacs because you never know, there’s a lot of diseases related to a disease that they come up with similar names for. It’s probably meant to say Celiacs but I just wanted to confirm.
