  1. Thank you all for your advice I really appreciate it. Its driving me crazy waiting to find out my results and not knowing what to do in the mean time. They are also testing me for bacterial infections which would also make sense with my symptoms. I'm praying I don't get my usual diagnosis of ibs and sent on my way!!
  2. I had the blood test about 6 and a half years ago and it was negative. I am seeing the doctor on Monday so will decide then if I should try the diet. My dietician wants me to try lactose free first which I have done for about ten days. I do feel slightly better but had a lot of headaches and nausea at first. Not sure why.
  3. Its strange because a long time ago I did the atkins diet, to loose weight. That was before my problems started and I felt terrible on the atkins diet, I sometimes blame that diet for my digestive problems. Its not exactly health is it!?
  4. Thanks for your replies. I am not gluten free yet and was wondering if it was also another symptom of celiacs.
  5. Thanks. It's strange today I had tummy ache and was so hungry , all I wanted was toast. After I ate it I quickly feel better (might sound strange that I feel better at first?!) and was satisfied. But an hour later I feel bad again and the symptoms came back worse(mainly cramps and frequent toilet trips).
  6. Hi There I was wondering how may of you feel that you're immune system is lowered by your possible intolerance to gluten? I have had antibiotics twice already this year for strep throat and I feel like I am getting sick again, just a few days after I stopped the last course of antibiotics :-( Is this common in Celiacs? I feel like I am not getting much...
  7. Hi Again Im not sure what my body is telling me really, like I mentioned I get really really strong cravings for bread etc and often feel very weak and hungry. I think I would need educating about Gluten Free food, especially breakfast options. The more I htink about my diet the more I realise how much gluten I eat, in nearly every meal!! Do amy other...
  8. Thanks so much for your helpful replies. Do you think my symptoms combined with what the doctor saw sound like celiacs? Sorry I know its hard to guess but I am so desperate to know why I feel so bad. Might sound strange but if it comes back negative I will actually be dissapointed since then its more work figuring out what is wrong with me. Last night I was...
  9. Hey thanks for the replies. I had a blood test about 8 years ago when my symptoms started and it was negative. Even though my symptoms were still persistent I was told it was not celiacs as the blood test was negative. I have since discovered this is not true, hence gastroscopy, 8 years later!! It makes me angry that many doctors knew I was suffering...
  10. I have exactly this. I think sticky stools are common with celiacs, anyone else know about this? I seem to get through a lot of toilet paper as well!
  11. Yes she took biopsies from duodenum, intestines and esophagus. But no results yet. Im just wondering how likely it is to come back positive. I have never tried gluten free. I dont know if there is anything in it but I absolutely love bread, pasta and all things gluteny! I get strong cravings when I am hungry for bread and sometimes get really really hungry...
  12. Hello There I am new to the forum and this is a brief history of me: IBS C+D + bad bloating and constant gas/rumbling. Strong cramps worse around period. Symptoms for about 8 years that are constant. Suffer with gastritis symptoms, high up stomach pain and acid burning sensation Asthma Heart palpitations Problems with acne Fluctuating weight Often...
