Holy cow! I'm crying again. But this time it's because I found out my friends are organizing a fundraiser so I can get that MRI. I feel TERRIBLE about taking charity - I've always been one to give charity, not recieve it. But I feel wonderful knowing that my friends care about me so much. And it WILL be good to finally find out what this is - even if it turns out to be cancer. At least I'll know.

That's so nice about your friends!

If you are paying cash for the MRI, you might be able to get it cheaper. Someone paying at the time of service costs the hospital less than billing insurance companies or managing people making payments.

Keep trying to eat the things that aren't your worst foods. Not eating just makes you feel worse & messes up your digestion more.

It's not charity when it's from your friends. That's called love. :)

Bartfull - just wanting to send my best wishes, and hope that you can get through this soon. I'm thrilled that your friends are helping you with the doctor's fees.

I hope you are able to get your MRI asap! You are so lucky to have such good friends! Don't hesitate to let them help! I know if I had a sick friend I would want to be able to ease their burden! Keep us posted!

"Candida" perhaps. Candida overgrowth can cause a countless number of issues including food intolerance's. I would research that as well.

This sums up what I have read myself .... I say this as I reel from my own issues and Im trying to sort it all out myself.

Gluten intolerance and issues with Candida can overlap and be devastating, unless your aware of BOTH and actively address both problems.

For what its worth.

      Of all the countries I have visited in Europe, Asia, and the Americas, I have found eating out in Ireland to be the safest for celiacs. Most restaurants have all allergens (up to 14 different ones) identified on their menus, including wheat and gluten. I have found staff at restaurants to be very knowledgeable regarding gluten and cross-contamination compared to most other countries. Restaurant staff (including management) in Ireland even tried dissuading me from eating some items labeled 'gluten-free' on the menu, fearing that there could be risk of minuscule cross-contamination. Many of the hotels have fresh baked gluten-free breads, pastries, and cakes at their breakfast buffet, something unheard of in most U.S hotels. These are clearly labeled and well separated from gluten-containing items. There are also quite a few gluten-free desserts to satisfy one's sweet tooth.  With everything said and done, the meats and dairy products are simply delicious and worth trying. Overall, I would give dining out in Ireland five stars for celiac safety and quality.

      No, I meant two years ago when you had your most recent upper GI scope.

      Hello everyone, I am a young adult living with both Celiac disease and achalasia. I am looking for some inspiration to start raising awareness for people with Celiac disease on instagram. Please reach out to me if you have any tips and ideas on what is important to share to the world.
