    That's interesting about the intestinal parasite I have sometimes wondered if had something like that , but I haven't really looked into it much , I went to the Caribbean 5 years ago and some problems started after that , it's probably not connected but I have lately thought about if I did pick something up . My doctor ruled out refractory celiac disease...

    I will take a look at your thread after writing this post It's good the Wellbutrin made you feel better I never use to be worried about the side effects , but my sister had some tablets and maybe it made her illness start up , it's difficult to prove but it makes me worry more about side effects now . My doctor once said if someone takes a tablet...

    Sorry you had a bad experience I do have some tablets I am suppose to take but i'm frightened of the side effects , but i'm also worried about what could happen if the problem gets worse as it's kinda difficult knowing what's best to do . How did you get vitamin K tested ? As I have some symptoms of vitamin K deficiency but my doctor's don't know how to...

    Hopefully I can get a tablet with a higher does from the doctor , my GP did mention the other day about some different supplements that I might absorb better . That story is interesting , the tablets I had are from the hospital and my doctor said there the top brand . I wondered also about just vitamin D tablets as mine are calcium and vitamin D , I wonder...

    That's good your anxiety and depression went away . I been on the gluten free diet for almost 10 years . I found slowly after been diagnosed depression and anxiety got worse I remember the 1st time I really felt depressed was a year and a half after I was diagnosed but than it started getting worse slowly year by year . Than in winter of 2008 it became a...

    I have been gluten free since May 2003 and have always stuck with diet 150 %. I have been taking Adcal vitamin D , I think it has 400 units of vitamin D taken twice a day . Unfortunately living in england we haven't got much sunshine lately , it rained most of last summer and now we have snow , we need some sun for a couple of months ! Thanks

    Hi powerofpositivethinking , glad gluten free diet has helped your acid reflux , I will look into the book thanks . That's interesting about the table , I have read similar things before . I agree it's best o get to the root of the problem and treat that . I don't usually take tablets as the side effects scare me ! It seems tablets are not good...

    I know Anxiety and Depression are quite common illnesses but I have read many article's etc about people with celiac disease having double the risk of getting these conditions . Do we get a different form of Anxiety and Depression ? I know vitamin deficiency especially vitamin D can cause depression , and lots of Celiac's have vitamin D deficiency . I...

    Wow that's crazy , I feel sorry for the kids

    I know it's there choice but it's disgraceful making themselves ill and risking the future for the sake of food . I agree I believe most Celiac's are strong because sticking to the diet can be tough at times . I shouldn't laugh but sometimes I hear people on simple diets complain about there diet is hard us Celiac's have things 10 x worse than any diet ....

    Tonight I feel so angry because yesterday I read on a different site a idiot who apparently has celiac disease and didn't stick to the gluten-free diet for years . I have read so many stories of dingbats who think there so cool by not sticking to the gluten-free diet and than suddenly they want to stick to it. Makes me so angry I know it's there choice and...

    Sorry to hear that a84c72 . It's horrible and frustrating when people think we are picky or on a fad diet . I hope things will improve soon After being gluten-free for almost 10 years I usually think is it worth it sticking to the diet I think no but really we have too It does suck and sometimes it can really make you upset but things will improve...

    I would not agree with that it depends how much celiac disease affects your health , some people go gluten-free and are fine while others go gluten-free and still have lots of problems either way it's not an easy disease to have from my experience.

    Have you tried Cider ? It's a nice drink and usually the same price as beer.

    Sorry to hear that , hopefully you can find a way to fix the problem soon . Does Gastritis cause back pain as well ?
  18. tennisman
    I don't think I ate anything that could have caused it , but I did drink lime squash just by itself I'm not sure if that could have caused it .

    I will ask my doctor about the gallbladder . It was very very dark brown I don't think it was black. Than at the weekend it was very dark green , online it says green could be an infection ? Thanks
  20. tennisman
    I will ask my doctor to do the gallbladder tests . My last Endoscopy in late 2010 showed mild gastritis the doctor said all Celiac's have some gastritis not sure if that is right though . Does gastritis cause you problems or have you found a way to treat the symptoms ? Thanks

    9 days ago I started getting new and different stomach pains , the pain is almost like my stomach is being pinched and it reallys really tight and quite hard. Also last week I started getting back pains pretty much the same pain that has started in my stomach ( and possibly pain in the kidneys ). Than on friday I noticed the colour of my stools became very...

    Wow that's terrible , I hope you get results soon and I hope your doctor gets celiac disease than he might change his no big deal opinion !

    I had a positive blood test for lupus but the doctor didn't think I have . I did the test with a Rheumatologist while they were trying to figure my back problems out . I looked at lupus sites I have a few of the symptoms mentioned but I doubt the doctor would diagnose me with it . I tested positive to 2 other conditions but wasn't diagnosed with either .

    Hi archaeo in FL , Thanks , I hope all the tests will be over soon and we will figure out what's going on . I'm not sure if I had the Hydrodistension , I know near the end of the test they filled my bladder up with water so they could see more in the bladder i'm not if that is the same thing or similar ? That part caused bad pain , I remember the doctor saying...

    Hi archaeo in FL , Thanks for the reply . Did the Cystoscopy hurt without anaesthetic ? I'm not sure what hydrodistension is ? I had a Cystoscopy last week it caused sharp pain at the start and near the end of the test . I also had a lot of pain and some swelling after and just wanted to know how long it took for you to recover ? I have read online it can...
