ARCHIVED Tetnas And Tb Shots
nikky posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Im going on an expedition when we go back to school and i need to get a tetnas shot before we go. We are also meant to have been given TB jabs in school last year but for some reason we didnt get one so i have to ask my doctor to give me one. We were wondering if either of them contain any hidden surprises, our biggest worry is of course gluten, although... -

nikky replied to nikky's topic in Related Issues & Disorders

wow im sorry, my TTG (Tissue TransgluTaminase) was off the scale. In the UK the test only goes up to 200 and mine was over that. But my biopsy was negative. Luckily my doctors and dietitian do recognise that im a healthy weight, its just my so-called freinds that dont. Thankyou. -

nikky replied to nikky's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Thanks for the tips. I do try to explain to my freinds about celiac, but most of the time i end up wanting throw something because all i get are comments like "I'd tell them to stuff it" (them meaning my doctors) and "I'd die if i couldnt eat cookies and pizza" -

I guess i never thought of it like that, sometimes they do seem genuinely concerned but other times i think they are teasing. Thankyou -

I know taking pills all the time isnt healthy, but its the only way i can sleep sometimes, and the pain isnt in the muscule, they (the doctors) think its bowel or ovary related. I probably should of said that, my bad, sorry. as for "Now start telling me about busy and time." , yea i am busy, i have my last year of school starting in september, but i always...

Oh and another thing hes a peadi so either when im 16 or 18 i have to stop seeing him

ARCHIVED Positive Blood Work, Negative Biopsy
nikky replied to *lee-lee*'s topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I had the same thing happen to me. I would agree that you do have coeliac, theres no false positives and together with a good dietry response, positive blood tests are a good basis for confirming diagnosis. My GI said that in a few years he will stop doing biopsy's (if its just for this) because even those with negatives end up being diagnosed with coeliac... -
ARCHIVED Prepping For Scope
nikky replied to care34us's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
i just had sedatives for mine (i was 14 at the time) but as your son is so young they will probably give him a GA. Tell him he is going to have a funny mask and go to sleep, if you want you can tell him that they are going to use a special camera to take pictures of his tummy. Tell him that his throat might hurt a little when he wakes up and if it does you... -
