Called my doctor, and he scheduled me for an upper and lower endoscopy on Monday along with the colonoscopy. Thank you so much and I will keep you posted.

I did check out the website that you suggested and it has a lot of information, quite overwhelming but still very helpful. The nurse has told me not to adjust my diet in any way right now until they are finished with testing, although I am ready to make some changes. I did read somewhere that people from Northern Europe are prevelant to Celiac, I was born...

Thank you so much for the advice. I will call my doctor and request the Ttg test as that is not one that he ran. I did actually suspect the sauce and not the shrimp, the sauce did look quite thick like it had flour in it. I am ready to change my diet but unfortunately I need to have more testing done and I really want to have the testing done to that I can...

I am having the following symptoms: Abdominal cramps, gas, bloating, pressure, stomach rumbling all the time, constipation, fluid retention, vitamin D deficient (dr. prescribed a high dose for 6 months), bouts of vertigo, teeth issues (in the past year I have had 2 root canals, 2 crowns, 2 fillings due to my teeth chipping and breaking). I am due to...

My test results came back negative and I was pretty certain that they would come back positive. Not sure how to read them, the nurse just said they are negative. Gliadin antibody (IGG) in range <3 *** Reference range <11 U/mL Reference Range: <11 U/mL negative 11-17 U/mL equivocal >17 U/mL positive Ednomysial AB Screen (IGA) Reflex...

I will do that, thank you.

I feel kind of disappointed because the symptons are not easy to live with and when the dr. mentioned Celiac and I started to read up on it.....I thought wow....this is me, I am finally going to get some help with this. I will wait for the colonoscopy and see what the results are from that. As soon as the dr. sends me my blood results I will post them and...

As soon as I receive my test results I will post them. When I called the nurse today to request the blood results and tried to explain to her that the symptoms of this disease are what I am having she kind of sounded like I was maybe reading too much on the web. I told her that I had read so much because it just seemed like this is what was happening with...

I have been having what I refer to as "stomach issues" for quite a few years now. They have always been managable up until about a year ago ( I had stomach surgery done a year ago). I am lucky to go to the bathroom once a week, always cramping and bloated, I least one week out of the month I have so much pressure that it hurts just to sit down. At night time...
