    I contacted the Arkansas support group contacts and asked for reccs on docs. I am just so frustrated. I feel like I have wasted so much time and money (and discomfort). I am not sure that I really need to hear from the DOC that I have celiacs but I am worried that there is something else I should be checking into...

    I left yet another message and the medical records clerk called me back and said they would make a copy of my file for me to pick up! The nurse or doctor never bothered to call. My husband finally got a nurse on the phone and she said the biopsies did not show any damage. However, in my doped up haze I swear he said he only took four or five biopsies. ...

    The Doctor that I have seen for the last ten years regarding my ulcerative colitis just tested me for Celiacs. He did not listen to any of my complaints, dismissed me as being depressed, etc. He mailed me a photo-copied sheet with random check marks and will not call me back to explain the tests (that no where even mentions Celiacs). I need a new doctor!...

    Well.... My Doctor (That I do not plan on using anymore) mailed me results for my biopsies. It is a photo-copied sheet with x's by the appropriate boxes. I am negative for bacteria that causes ulcers. Biopsies were negative for H. Pylor infection... Then, he listed options for my indigestion and and gas... (Which were never chief complaints) I...

    I got a part of my labs back this morning online. From what I understand (which is not much) they look to be in the normal range. The test is just called IGA - it says mine is 190 out of a normal range of (40-350). The tests for the transglutaminase ab igg/iga are online but the results are not listed - which means she got the results but hasn't put them...

    Are you in Arkansas? Do you know the name of the bakery? I am in Rogers but my family is in Little Rock and we are there a lot.

    You know, I have not gotten as out of hand as what you are describing but I am increasingly frustrated by my health. I honestly feel crappy and crabby most of the time. I have been on anti-depressants but I know I am not depressed. I really do feel bad. I know that I have to make changes and I am prepared to do so. There will be no fooling around. I let...

    I was hanging at the pool one gorgeous afternoon and received a call from my GP. She had some interesting test results. She was getting ready to tell me something I had figured out a while ago but had not wanted to remotely admit. You seem, for sometime I had noticed I felt bad after eating breads or pasta and my symptoms were getting increasingly worse....

    Thank you Irish Heart. Honestly, my biggest worry is a negative test tomorrow. I know I can do this if I hear a positive result but I know I also know my will power might fail me if I have doubts. I think that is the single most frustrating thing about this disease...a jury would hardly ever convict...almost always a shadow of a doubt! ;-) I am having...

    I was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis over 20 years ago . It has gone in and out of remission several times and has ranged from moderate to severe at times. Currently, it is in remission. Around Christmas this year, I started feeling really bad. I was not having a UC flair. I was extremely tired, had terrible tingling in my feet (especially at night...
