    ARCHIVED Gastroparesis?

    brenda07 replied to a topic in Related Issues & Disorders

    i have gastroparesis also they found mine with a stomach emptying test, about a year after i found out that i had celiac, i was not eating much, i had no energy, and i was never hungry, always felt full, stomach always hurt also, so they did the test and sure enough that was it, so they added that to the many other things i deal with on a daily basis, so...

    my gastro highly recommended juice plus and told me that they would make me feel super, the fruit and the vegetable ones, he told me and the rep both told me that they were both gluten free, after taking them both for 6months and feeling no better, probbably worse!! I stopped taking them, i guess now i know why i didnt' have any improvement while taking them...

    I just received a letter in the mail on Saturday from my dr. saying she was leaving her practice to do something called MD at home, with a list of alternate drs, I could chose from. I broke down crying, I am so upset, she has been through everything with me, she has been my dr. for 14years, she is more than a dr., i consider her a friend, she's always been...

    my daughter said to me the other day that she wished there was no such thing as celiac disease, she is eight years old, because she knows how much i struggle with this, i just wanted to cry, and i said to her, that i wished that there was no such thing as celiac disease too, but i was glad that she was here to help me through it.

    Thanks for such supportive words, some days I feel like my head are just in the clouds and I just don't want to talk to anyone about anything. So far the only other allergy I have asked to be tested for is to see if I was lactose intolerant and that can back negative. My gastro Dr. seems to think I should try accupunture sure...well he's not the one who...

    I find it to be not only family members who are insensitive but my co-workers will say to me, things like "I wish I had celiac, so I couldn't eat this candy bar, then maybe I could lose some weight.' I just want to kill them. They just don't understand the struggles we go through every day. My kids are 8 an 12 and understand more about being sensitive to...

    that's the thing when i tell people just exactly how hard it is and when they have to actually look at just how many things have wheat and gluten in them they are totally shocked by it, and then they think, I really don't know how you do it, and the thing is, is this disease may not be live threatening but it is definately life alterating for all of us,...

    thank you, i will let you know what i find out. My doctor is very supportive and has been great since the day I walked into her office over 13 years ago, whenever I bring up a new issue she is always sure to address it, without her I don't know where I would be at today. thanks for your support.

    I use Chebe brand bread mixes, they are very simple to make and they are delicious, once I make them, the whole family goes nuts, I can't keep the bread in the house and you can freeze the dough to use it at a later time, they have a website, I believe it is chebe.com. Check it out and let us know what you think about it. You get to add your own spices...

    I too struggle with terrible mood swings, some days I feel as if I could just ring someones neck at any moment, other days I cry for no reason at all, I do take anti-depressants, but being on this diet and having people say to you, I wish I had that... so I couldn't eat this stuff, then I could lose weight, just really pisses me off!! They just don't understand...

    I live in the Rockford area and am always looking for someone to talk too about celiac, I was first diagnosed when i was 18, and then rediagnosed at the age of 32, I am now 34 so for 2 years now I have been gluten free, it is very hard to try to explain to people what you can and can't eat, and why. At the age of 18 they didnt' know a whole lot about the...
