ARCHIVED Need Help Please-very High Anti Ttg False Biopsy
nikky replied to mikewtf's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I had exactly the same problem, my results were so high that they were of the scale but my biopsy was completly clear, five different pathologists looked at the samples that were taken and none of them could find any kind of damage, and i hadnt even been gluten free. My doctors re-did my bloods and eventually went on that and scrapped the biopsy. It is... -
ARCHIVED Child With Neg Celiac Blood Work, But Doing Well On Diet.
nikky replied to I hate gluten's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Hi, i had a slightly different issue with my tests, positive bloods but negative biopsy, but you are right, there is a high rate of false negatives in coeliac, especially in young children. If you and you son feel better without gluten then there is obvously a problem, no matter what the tests say and well done to you for having the initative to try the diet... -

ARCHIVED Concerned About Uncle
nikky replied to nikky's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
thanks for your replies so far. By the way, im not trying to force my uncle to change, i just want him to hear his doctor out but i cant see him doing that at the moment -
My Uncle as been quite ill for a long time now, he's even ended up collapsing and being hospitalised before now. A few weeks ago his doctor suggested that he cut out wheat to see if it made him feel any better. Last night i went to my cousin's wedding reception, when the food was opened he went to get some and came back with a plate full of wheat containing...

ARCHIVED Chronic Lower Right Abdominal Pain Please Help!
nikky replied to nikky's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
thankyou for you help. The problem with CAT scans is that the waiting list is about 8 months long for non-emergancy patients and i really dont know if i will be able to cope for that long. I havent seen a gyn doc but will seriously consider it. Thankyou! -
ARCHIVED How Long For Recovery?
nikky replied to DNickell's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
It can take up to a year or more for the body to fully recover, so at this point in time it is likely that it is still the coeliac causing your symptoms. Make sure your not getting gluten from any hidden sources, check shampoo's toiletries and foods like sausages that could contain hidden gluten. Be aware that just because something says sutible for coeliacs... -

ARCHIVED How Do I Stop Anorexia Comments
nikky replied to nikky's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
some of the people that say it arent even my freinds, they are sort of freinds of my freinds (if that makes sense). For example today, i was sitting eating lunch with my freinds and this girl was there that i hardly talk to. One of my freinds asked if i was finished with my foil and i said it was still around the other half of my sandwich, my friend asked... -

ARCHIVED How Do I Stop Anorexia Comments
nikky replied to nikky's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I know part of it was jeaslousy ("omg you could eat a normal cake and loose weight? lucky you" my reaction : yea if i wanna end up with cancer) but the freind that said that on the bus genuinely did think im annorexic, but shes not the quickest of people, taking into account that she asked if coeliac is contageous. -
There was a bomb scare in London last year, the airport police got a tip off that 3 flights were going to be bombed using liquid bombs, its only in the last few months that restrictions have gone back to normal.

nikky replied to nikky's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Thanks. I havent tried food enzymes, i dont know where to get them in the UK and my pearents tend to discourage us (me my sisters and brother) from taking too many supplements. Ive never heard of the immune boosting IgG 2000, my GI hasnt mentioned any drugs (mind you hes a bit pre-occupied trying to sort the rest of my family out at the same time as treating... -
ARCHIVED Teen Wanting Celiac Online Friends!
nikky replied to Softballer7's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Yea, i know what you mean, i was glutened in school(accidently) and i tried telling the receptionist and she just kept asking questions, then told me i couldnt possibly be having a reaction that quickly (i dont think shes ever seen a reaction of any type). She told me to go to lesson and see the teacher if i still felt ill. which i did, lucky for me my welsh... -
ARCHIVED How Do I Stop Anorexia Comments
nikky replied to nikky's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
the sad thing is, i cant really say to my freinds that if they had coeliac they wouldnt have a choice, because my dad has probably got it and is already hinting that he might not go completly gluten-free " just because i see the doctor doesnt mean i have to listen to them", im not sure how much he means but i know for a fact if i had that attitude he'd give... -
