  1. Well, its been a week and a half on the gluten free diet, and I'm nothing short of amazed. Corey is doing so much better. Granted, he's not anywhere near 100%, but he is able to get out of bed and function without taking morphine. Anything is an improvement from where we were. Hopefully he continues to improve. Thanks to everyone who convinced us to do...
  2. "...but i'm not quite sure if you need a referral where you live or not" yes unfortunately we do need a referral to see ANY specialist, and that doctor can ask for a new referral every 6 months. I'm sure if we move out of BC we would have an easier time. As far as I know, BC is the only province in Canada where the doctors are contracted instead of employed...
  3. LOL you are not the first to ask. I used to play for a slo-pitch drinking ball team called the Halston Hoes. Everyone had to have a "HOE" name. There was Yo-hoe, Ivanhoe, Slowhoe among others, and every time someone dove for the ball or slid into a base that was known as a Hoedown. I use it because my first name is almost always taken (Crystal), and well...
  4. I know I should probably start a new thread but oh well. Corey's family doctor ordered blood tests yesterday-get the results in 2 weeks. Yah, he WAS NEVER tested for Celiac disease-and I thought that his old GI was a really smart guy. We cleaned out most of the cupboards and went grocery shopping, he was quite disappointed in all the things he couldn...
  5. alright a little update here and another wonderful hospital story Corey had to go in last night, I had to stay home since i'm pregnant and sick. Corey:" What do you mean you are giving me Buscopan? I've been waiting for 5 hours and you want to give me Buscopan??" (He ended up getting morphine thankfully) Corey: "I already told you not to...
  6. sorry i should clarify...pig whipworm EGGS...its true
  7. You are absolutely right. I think I've learned enough about doctors to know they think they know more than they do. Corey just phoned his mom and told her about Celiac disease-she is nothing short of ecstatic. She is getting tested this week. (Her doctors simply don't know what to do for her and her diagnoses change like underwear) I do agree though, even...
  8. I"m almost in tears. There is so much I want to say, and I'm stunned at the response. Not to make light, but I really hope he has Celiac and not Crohn's, cause we have hit a brick wall with Crohn's. He doesn't even have a GI anymore, he's been abandoned. The only one who cares is his GP, and wow almost every doctor in this town has either called him a "drug...
  9. I was wondering if anyone has been misdiagnosed before finding out they had Celiac disease. My husband has been sick for years...since 2000 actually. 2 years ago he was finally given a diagnosis of Crohn's disease, but nothing is helping him. I was looking for alternative medicines when I found a snippet about someone being misdiagnosed with Crohn's and...
