  2. I have recently been diagnosed with celiac disease. My question is more about blood pressure medications. I am on Micardis 80mg since last September. In October I had some dental work and was on antibiotics for 10 days . just around then I began to experience stomach problems. The doctor said it was probably the antibiotics. To make a long story short...
  3. thanks tired for the info . the Gastrologist was really not that helpful he even said maybe you have just irritable bowel since my biopsy was negative so he said we can give you another i said no thanks i am just going gluten free i am sick of this pain. any hints you have i would appreciate too like foods to eat etc you both can email me at my acct too...
  4. thanks peter for the info. do you know if there are any gluten-free products for gas we can buy in ontario . i just found out Gas-X has gluten in it. I have mild chronic gastritis i was told from the biopsy. People on the blogs here have mentioned it might be secondary to the celiac like the celiac caused it. i have a proton pump to help with acid but really...

  6. hi kathy.... i read a posting a doctor had online about the fact we have 22 feet of small intestines so when they do biopsy they might not hit right on the gluten effected area. so we could in essence be biopsied over and over . the blood tests are suppose to be 90% right so i think if our numbers are up we do have problems with gluten thus gluten free...

  9. mushroom do you know where else i can post the blood tests. I see no one has entered anything on here.thanks
  10. thanks mushroom. i was told to go easy on the dairy by a lady in the local health food store who has celiac. Shesaid it is hard on the immune system. what about fruits any i should stay away from since i have the gastritis too. i was thinking something like an orange would be very acidic. I have being eating lots of applesauce and thought maybe some peaches...
  11. Thanks so far for the great info it is so discouraging at first when you don't know much about celiac plus the fact the stomach biopsy said chronic gastritis and I have never had a problem over the years with any stomach/bowel issues. I am in ontario canada so i am not sure how to read these tests meaning i have seen some blood tests posted but I could not...
