ARCHIVED Incredible Amount Of Hives On My Legs
blondebombshell posted a topic in Dermatitis Herpetiformis
so much going on trying to confirm what it is is wrong with me. my bloodwork says no wheat allergy, as does allergy test and endoscopy. but. i have huge bloating/constipation issues AND break out in crazy hives after i eat wheat. is this DH? only on my legs? -
i went to a new gastro doc and he looked at past bloodwork and it said nothing about having a wheat allery. i am constantly bloated and constipated. i havent been able to go to the bathroom in over a week now. he said that i could have an issue digesting wheat because i have an irritable bowel. does anyone else have symptoms or share similar experiences...

ARCHIVED Fiber One Bars
blondebombshell posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
i haven't been able to go to the bathroom now for over a week. my doc took me off the senna laxative i was taking, told me i didnt have allergies, persay but more of an intolerance to wheat due to an irritable bowel. with that being said, if wheat flour is the last item on the list (like the fiber one bars) could i eat them to help me? Open Original... -
ARCHIVED Gluten/wheat Related Intolerances
blondebombshell replied to blondebombshell's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
ok this new doctor was a result of my past doctor telling me nothing was wrong with me. hives, bloating, etc. would not be indiciative of a gluten allergy. therefore i went to this new doc and he said that the old doc's endoscopy would not be able to tell if i truly did have celiac or not. he said they only test is 3 pieces of bread for 3 months and that... -
ARCHIVED Gluten/wheat Related Intolerances
blondebombshell replied to blondebombshell's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
no, no, no. i have cut all wheat/gluten out of my diet. bc it was a new doc i was wondering if there was truth to this. he told me to use some mirilax in a drink once a day to help with constipation and didnt say anything about being allergic to wheat/gluten. just that eating it sometimes causes an irritble bowel. -
ARCHIVED Gluten/wheat Related Intolerances
blondebombshell replied to blondebombshell's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
everything every mentioned makes perfect sense. i am just confused why i have these constipation/bloating problems. when i went to a new gastro doc last week he mentioned that there are a lot of people that have problems digesting wheat and he said that he doesn't *suspect* i have celiac. he is sending me for some blood test (IGL or something?) i... -

if someone has an intolerance to wheat, because of an irritable bowel, should they still altogether avoid wheat and gluten? -

ARCHIVED Naturopath Questions
blondebombshell posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
i am thinking about going to see a naturopath and had some questions before i make an appt. - how do i know if my insurance covers it? - what kind of tests are they going to do? - will they be able to help my bloated tummy? - if i am already gluten-free, what will they be able to help me with. thank so much! -
since no MD has been able to help me, i was thinking of seeing a Naturopathic in my area. has anyone seen one with success? someone recomended: Dr. James Prego on long island would he even be able to do anything for me?

ARCHIVED Constipation
blondebombshell replied to blondebombshell's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
hmmm.... cause i have cut all gluten out and still have this issue! -
i saw dr. kohlrosser/lobo in babylon and they were clueless. they told me that the endo came back negative and that i cant have a gluten allergy/celiac. that being gluten free is expensive and tough. WTH you know?

is there anyone else out there that suffers from chronic constipation and bloating

ARCHIVED Going To A Different Doctor This Week
blondebombshell replied to blondebombshell's topic in Doctors
