  1. sorry, I should have been more clear...no signs of infections,no sores, no cold sores...I wonder if it's a B12 deficiency or an allergic reaction? will find out my B12 results next week and now I have a referral to an allergist..I was told the office would call me to set up the appointment...whenever/whatever I find out is the cause, I will post back and...
  2. Just wondering if anyone here has had burning lips? is it a symptom of gluten intolerance? wheat allergy? I do have an appointment coming up and am getting allergy testing done along with B12.
  3. I think that if you have severe reflux you should have an endoscopy done to check and see if you have Barrett's Esophagus which is caused by the damage done by the acid.
  4. thanks! That's what I thought!..but trying to tell my sister will be like talking to a brick wall! because you know, milk is healthy...:/
  5. No, no tummy troubles~no crayon eating or green candy!
  6. My kids are older so I don't remember how their bm's were at age 3..I watched my nephew yesterday and his bm was pretty mushy, like a newborn's would be. It was also light tan with a green tint...the green very noticeable. This kid hardly eats anything and I doubt he ate anything that would turn his stool greenish. He will only eat sausage, bacon, ham,...
  7. I would recheck thyroid..many docs will say everything's fine if you're results are at the high end or low end of the range so definitly retest TSH, free T3 and free T4. I would also get your iron levels checked
  8. I haven't always had red circles under my eyes, popped up a few years ago...I thought maybe they are allergy shiners, but I googled and the pics showed what looked like bruises..mine don't look like bruises just redness. Just curious. my doc said I was iron deficient at one time but levels were fine a few months ago. I'm going to have iron levels checked...
  9. I was told that since my ds tested negative for DQ2 an DQ8 that there is NO chance he can have celiac. hmmmmm...
  10. thanks, but my son's GI doc refused to do anymore testing. I just posted a topic negative DGP IgA and Negative DGP IgG I tried to copy and paste but it wouldn't work. no, I don't recall that he had the total serum IgG done, he did have DGP IgG which I had forgotten about.
  11. had ds retested a few months ago, GI doc refused to do IgG versions(TtG IgG and EMA IgG) because #1 DGP IgG is negative #2 celiac gene test came back extremely low risk my question: since he has a low total serum IgA, should I go ahead and ask his pediatrician for IgG versions? or does his GI doc know what he's talking about? Does a negative DGP IgG...
  12. Hi, I noticed that your sodium is below range...was that addressed? have you looked up symptoms of low sodium?
  13. tTG IgG DGP IgG AGA IgG EMA IgG asking the GI doc today to run IgG versions for my ds since he has a low total serum IgA
  14. Thanks Karen! I was asked if I wanted copies sent to my family doc(I said yes) so I will call and see if they have the copies and if not, I"ll ask the nurse to request them! I never would have thought of that! I just called, they don't have copies of the blood test results but the nurse is going to call and get them and send everything to me. thanks...
  15. My follow up appointment isn't til March...My endoscopy was done primarily to check for Barrett's and dilate my esophagus..I forgot to tell the doc I wanted more than just one sample to biopsy for celiac and totally forgot to ask how many he took after I awoke. My esophageal biopsy is benign, so that means no cancer! Thank God!! but was told my blood test...
  16. Glad to hear it went just fine! did tthey completely put you out or was it just a twilight sedative? My endoscopy is tomorrow!
  17. my dentist never said it was enamel defects, never said I'd get a cavity there...I"ve the spots for years with no brown stains(teeth are slightly yellow but I do drink coffee) I also never use whitening products because my teeth are very sensitive to that stuff.
  18. for those of you who have white spots on your teeth, where are the spots located on your teeth? I don't know if I have any spots on the backside, mine are on the front some are more towards the gumline and some are towards the other end of the tooth...my older sister and I always had cavities growing up even though we brushed(of course, my younger sister...
  19. How can I get the GI to take 6 samples?? I called today and requested 6 samples and the nurse told me no, they only take 2,...and when doing the EGD, the GI will be able to see the damage.
  20. No, I"m in the U.S. I didn't see that the company only ships within Canada. can you post a link to the product on the london drugs website? it's not coming up in a search...
  21. How long did it take to get the test kit? It's from Canada right??
  22. Yes I do need to clean up my diet, I find it hard to give up my one cup of coffee. I must have silent reflux cause I don't feel the "backsplash" very often...so in that case how would I know whatever I'm trying is working??
  23. Hi eveyone, I am having an endoscopy done to check for Barrett's esophagus and I thought I'd go ahead and ask for a celiac biopsy at the same time...get it all done in one shot! I have been eating gluten for lunch and dinners and snacks for the past few months (I don't remember exactly maybe 2-3 months) but still eat some gluten free foods..mainly at breakfast...
