We Need To Start A Thread On Stupid Stuff Doctors Say!
SilverClaerity replied to mushroom's topic in Doctors
This is from my family's latest family doctor. My dad and I have just switched because we dislike her so much. Example 1: I've been having pretty severe pain during my period for about the last year. I have no idea why. I kid you not, it feels like something is stabbing me in the cervix. I'm on naproxin when it gets bad, as a temporary measure. Tried... -
Unfortunately I can't recommend anyone for you just yet. I'm in the Toronto area too and would love to get a good GI for my undiagnosed issues. I'm finally seeing someone in September (after months and months of trying to get in contact with ANY GI!) in the northern GTA, I can let you know how that goes if it's not too far for you?

ARCHIVED Ultrasound Results. Cysts On Ovaries.
SilverClaerity replied to MomGoneRunning's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I've been wondering this myself! I'm not diagnosed, but pretty sure I have a problem with gluten. About a month ago, I went for a CT scan and was told that I have a 2.7cm cyst on my left ovary. My ultrasound to check up on it isn't for another month. I have no idea if this is related to the GI issues I've been experiencing.. but it's definitely food... -
ARCHIVED Undiagnosed And Still Sick... Could This Be Celiac?
SilverClaerity replied to SilverClaerity's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Went for the endoscopy, and they did the biopsy (they took 2 samples). I got a call from my doctor's office this morning: both came back clean. I don't know what to think. I had another attack of stomach pain the day before yesterday while I was at a friend's place. I had orange juice 3 hours before, and pasta with meat sauce an hour before that. (yet... -
ARCHIVED Undiagnosed And Still Sick... Could This Be Celiac?
SilverClaerity replied to SilverClaerity's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Aghn. Apologies for the uber late reply. New job + moving have made the last few weeks crazy. Haven't seen the family doctor yet, but likely will after the endoscopy. The consultation for it is tomorrow. Unless the results come back definitively showing a different cause, I'd like to go on a gluten free diet ASAP. If I don't have Celiac, the it won... -
ARCHIVED Does Anyone Else Get Terrible Upper Stomach Pain?
SilverClaerity replied to asickdaddy's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Me too. Sharp pain that's usually where my solar plexus is, that can lance down to my bellybutton. Sometimes it moves to the left or the right, but... augh, that pain is horrible. Can't even stand up straight. Glad to know I'm not the only one who's had this! (So far I'm undiagnosed, and the PPIs I'm taking haven't been helping) -
ARCHIVED Undiagnosed And Still Sick... Could This Be Celiac?
SilverClaerity replied to SilverClaerity's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
@kareng: Thanks for the links, but Chicago is a tad far for me - I'm just north of Toronto. My dad doesn't care/is always working, and my mom is of the opinion that it's all in my head because of stress. -.-" (Thanks Mom...) Got the beginning of a lecture about it today. Like, the last year has been rough.... but again, I haven't heard of stress causing this... -
ARCHIVED Undiagnosed And Still Sick... Could This Be Celiac?
SilverClaerity posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I've been sick for a while, and hoping that maybe someone here can give me some insight into what might be going on. At this point, any ideas are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for reading through this massive post! <3 I've tried to format it so that it doesn't make anyone's eyes bleed. So, here's the deal (I'll attempt to do this in chronological...
