ARCHIVED Walgreen's Calcium Creamies
natalie23 posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I was wondering if these were gluten-free or not. Here's the ingredient list. I tried calling but they didn't know either, and they didn't know where they were produced. This is the assorted napoleon flavors variety: Calcium carbonate, dextrose, sucrose, microcrystalline cellulose, maltodextrin, hydroxy propyl methyl cellulose, magnesium stearate... -
ARCHIVED Blood Positive, No Visual Signs, Biopsy?
natalie23 replied to natalie23's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Well, I heard from the doctor (I think I definitely did the right thing!) from his vacation spot. The first call: he took the biopsies, but he doesn't think I have it because there's a lot of false positives from blood work and my symptoms don't match up (?) but he'll try to track them down. The second call: he just called the lab, they got them, they did... -
ARCHIVED Blood Positive, No Visual Signs, Biopsy?
natalie23 replied to natalie23's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hi all! Well, I called today as I didn't hear back on Friday. It turns out the doctor who did the EGD and biopsy wont be back in until August 20. I don't know why they couldn't get back to me about this before he left on Saturday, but, well, whatever. Anyway, at some point I should find out what is going on, as soon as he decides to get back to them... -

ARCHIVED Blood Positive, No Visual Signs, Biopsy?
natalie23 replied to natalie23's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Let me start by saying that I am very angry. I went in for the Bx on July 17, over two weeks ago. I kept calling my doctor's office for the results -- once a day since Monday. Each day they told me that they would have the doc's medical assistant call me back. She never did. Today I called and said that I wanted to her to call me back so I could... -
I'm getting one of these done next month. Sounds like I should bring a book, eh?

ARCHIVED Positive Blood Test Result, Negative Biopsy, Geographical Tongue
natalie23 replied to AJJ's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Fascinating! I have had a geographical tongue for a long time! I always attributed it to the acid too (as tomatoes and pineapple would make it flair up). Has a gluten-free diet gotten rid of it for anyone? -

Thank you for your prompt responses! I should have the biopsy results in about a week so I will let you all know what they find! Thanks again! -
ARCHIVED Blood Positive, No Visual Signs, Biopsy?
natalie23 posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hi! My blood tested highly positive for celiacs (IgG and IgA anti-transglutimase) so I went in to have an EGD and biopsy this morning. The GI told me that there were no visual signs of celiac disease and that everything looked healthy. He said that the biopsies would be more accurate though. Did any of you have this happen? Is it less likely that I...
