Thanks SMRI they never told me any other reasons of what it could be. What's tropical sprue? I definitely could have had malnutrition at this time considering I had lost 30 lbs in 2 months.

Thank you all! I am around the Madison area, and all 3 GI Dr's I have seen are clueless. There is a new one that supposedly specializes in Celiac, I was going to see him...but then I cancelled the appointment. I was thinking at this point the RD could help me more, so I am seeing them on 8/14. The biggest thing that the Mayo Dr. and my Primary Dr (who...

This makes me furious! I asked for the full celiac panel to be ran. How did they run only half of it. What do I have to say to these doctors to get the correct test!!!! Do you think the gene testing was accurate. I can't tell if they ran for one gene or both?

I see Nicoles testing above, but I don't know if those are the short names for my testing? Does it look like based on my blood test they I had a full celiac panel, or parts of one? I can't remember if I was on gluten for 12 weeks at the time. I was very sick. The testing was done on 12/12. I think I had been off gluten around this time. I told them that...

I don't think they published my endoscopy reports on my chart at all. Currently the ear ringing is not happening. What is happening is diarrhea, vit d deficiency, and horrible upper back pain. I just called the clinic and asked for my celiac blood results. I am listing them here. My question is do the below results look like the full celiac panel? Same with...

Just curious reading through this post, has anyone tried the Eat Right 4 Your Type books to identify other avoid foods?!?

I hope to get some help on this board. So for the past year to year and a half I have been having problems. I have went through more needle pokes than I care to even think about. I have kind of, have, not really and not at all been diagnosed with Celiac. Since I have been about 12 years old I can remember my stomach severely bloating after I would eat...

I am so frustrated and confused. I don’t know if I have a gluten intolerance or possibly dairy or something else?!? I have had tons of symptoms I won’t go into all of them but as far back as 12 I can remember my stomach swelling way up after I would eat. This past year I got extremely sick, I lost like 30 lbs in a month’s time. I was 5’7 and 155 to b...

I won't get into my extremely long story but I have been having ongoing stomach issues that started back in Nov. Before that for as long as I can remember my stomach would swell up after I would eat, and I would like 4-5 months pregnant. I had two endoscopies, showing erosive gastritis, I had a colonoscopy showing mild inflammation. My celiac biopsy's...

I found out today talking with another nurse from my worthless GI Dr's office...that my biopsy showed high white blood cells in my small intestine. This is consistent with my blood work over the past 2+ years, as well as my fecal test showing inflammation high white count. They told me they think it could just be an incidental finding. The ignorance of...

Thank you for the reply! I have tried the mind over matter deal, I am not that good at it. They did run full blood tests for celiac, for the second one I had been off gluten for a couple weeks in between, I didn't know at the time that could make the test false. I did have 2 endoscopy's, they took biopsy's in both, both came back negative. The second...

I am going to post this on a couple forums because I am not sure of the best place to post. I have been very very sick since Nov. I have always had stomach issue's, as far back as I can remember...12 years old. I would bloat way up, usually always was constipated. Always told me I had IBS. A couple years ago I went to a functional medicine Dr. after female...

I have been violently sick with stomach pain, GERD major acid in stomach that is not getting under control since Nov. Have had 2 negative blood tests for Celiac, one I was off of gluten in the weeks prior to the test. My last endoscopy came back negative for celiac. I had enterolab test my stool, it came back positive for Gluten intolerance at a 53. I...

Thank you all for your reply's. This has been a really really tough week. I have been to a GI Dr. locally, and drove 5 hours yesterday to be seen at the Mayo Clinic Hospital, today was seen at the clinic, just for a consult with the Dr. it was 650.00 out of pocket! My ins. won't pay as they want me to go to their Dr's, but I am desperate. I am sad to...

Curious, when you react to something how long does it take for you to be sick. I am asking specifically for people who get diarrhea as a symptoms. I am very very sick this morning, my reactions don’t seem to be always happening right away. It seems to me the next day that I am very sick. I meet with GI Dr. again on Wed. I hope they can help me, figure o...
