    Well the verdict is in...and at this point were "calling in the big guns" as my gastroenterologist said. At this point, my GI is baffled by my small intestine. I am being placed on anti-anxiety medication to basically "numb" me of feeling until we can make progressive steps forward. I am being referred to an Academic Specialist at Baylor Medical Clinic where...

    Thank you! I really appreciate what you have just said. It does get frustrating hearing "it hasnt been long enough", when my body cannot physically take the pain much longer. I am on daily probiotics for bacterial overgrowth as well, so I can check that off the list. I will try to eliminate more products. I have been eating nothing but fresh fruits, vegetables...

    Valid point you have there. IV nutrition is a topic we will be discussing on Monday. I will keep all of you posted. Thank you graciously for getting me through these few days before my appointment! I appreciate all the wisdom and ideas each of you have offered!

    Thanks so much. I know some further drastic measures may have to be taken in order to heal. I will discuss all of this with my doctor and a dietician so they can provide me with some information to guide me in the right direction when selecting whole foods. I eat out very rarely but you are right that may be something I have to kiss goodbye for a while! ...

    Havent tried that yet, I will definitely ask my doctor about it and look into it. At this point, I think it is more fear and anxiety that is overwhelming me more than the pain itself. They did put me on a 2 week antibiotic (the name I do not recall, I believe it began with a Z..) because they thought it may be possible that I had a bacterial infection from...

    Again, I do appreciate all responses. This is a frustrating disease in itself. Yes, 4 months doesnt seem like that long...but, the damage to my small intestine has not stayed the same, nor improved but rather further deteriorated. I also have a list of unsafe foods (including what seems like a billion ingredients) that I carry with me when grocery shopping...

    I shop only at the whole foods store. I do eat out occasionally but I order items only off the gluten free menu (yes I eat a lot of salad). I do not consume any product that does not say Gluten Free on it unless it is a whole food product such as fruits and vegetables. I do not even consume gluten free bread because I find it close to repulsive. I do not...

    Yes. I have done all of the above. I have seen a dietician who reviewed all food choices as well as all products I come into contact with.

    I was diagnosed in August as having an extreme case of celiac disease. After 4 months on a strict gluten free diet, abdominal pain continued as well as other symptoms. A repeat endoscopy showed bluffed villous atrophy and the celiac level within my small intestine was sky high. Among those results of my biopsies, an increased lymphocyte count was also found...
