ARCHIVED I Got My Enterolab Results!
julie5914 replied to Spidey Sense's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Wendy, have you been tested for gall bladder trouble? Just something else to rule out with stomach pain and fullness. Another is ovarian trouble. Good luck finding it out - I know it is frustrating - I was diagnosed with IBS without them testing for anything at all, so when I told other doctors that I had been told that, they were just like oh, ok, insted... -

New news - My doc got a new nurse practitioner that might know more about celiac - she at least was more interested in finding out why I was anemic and pressed for a peripheral smear to check for pernicious anemia, which came back normal (no pernicious).

Hey guys, I hope you can help me out - I haven't had weight loss or loose stools - I've had quite the opposite. I've gone up 2 pant sizes in 7 months and had IBS with constipation. It is gotten so bad with my stomach that I can't eat a full meal without feeling sick, so I tend to break up my meals into mini meals throghout the day. I have never been tested...
