ARCHIVED Here's What We Got (Blood Test Results)
youwillrise replied to youwillrise's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Yeah...I know the whole deal on having to stay on gluten til all the tests are done (I haven't gone off it yet). I'm not sure I'm completely comfortable with the idea of an endoscopy. I'm more worried about the procedure itself, I guess ...the having to be sedated thing freaks me out. I've always been horrified of doctors and tests and procedures...However... -

Thanks for your reply. He said he was going to refer me to a gastroenterologist, but really only to do a breath test to make sure the h. pylori is gone once I finish the medication. I could definitely talk to the gastro about a possible endoscopy. I did find some stuff on a connection between celiac and h pylori...I decided to look it up when I got... -

youwillrise posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
the tests show a big negatory. i had extensive blood testing done, so they didnt only test for possible celiac, but many other things. i'll just focus on the celiac-related stuff here. i hope i do this right!

ARCHIVED What Have I Been Tested For?
youwillrise replied to RiFi's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I feel the same way. I've been experiencing these weird, uncomfortable, scary symptoms for nearly 3 months now...and tomorrow ill hopefully get some answers and be on my way to a solution. You never want to be told you have any disease or condition...but when you feel like crap, you want to know what is going on and what you can do about it. here's... -

ARCHIVED Hair Salon And Other Beauty Products
youwillrise replied to agemme12's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I had been using aubrey oranics for a while before all of this...and it looks like I might have to find a new brand. Wah. Their gpb is gluten free, so ill probably stick with that, but a couple of my other favorites - honeysuckle rose & white camellia are made with wheat germ oil. ...I only use natural products on my hair. No chemicals, no silicones... -

youwillrise replied to youwillrise's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hahahaha. no dragon can keep me from my records! Pfft especially not puny mini ones. But yeah, they've been really good about providing me with results from any tests they do, so that's been helpful. Tomorrow's the day! I'm really nervous, yet...I can't freakin wait! -

Well, I *hope* if it were something alarming or really important that they had to discuss with you, they'd have you come in sooner than 5 days...I hope all turns out well! Best wishes. : ) -

ARCHIVED Ahhh. Doctor's Appt This Coming Monday
youwillrise replied to youwillrise's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
That was my intention, actually. I'm going to try out a completely gluten free diet for a while and see how it works over time. Gluten free shopping shall commence later this week. Ill stick with mostly whole foods and keep the processed gluten free stuff to a minimum (though, I'm sure ill pick up a few things). I'm definitely listening to my body more... -

ARCHIVED Ahhh. Doctor's Appt This Coming Monday
youwillrise replied to youwillrise's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Thanks so much. They've been giving me copies of my bloodwork info so far without me having to slay anything...so hopefully they'll continue to do so. Ill ask if they don't, though. -
ARCHIVED Wish Me Luck!
youwillrise replied to ukdan's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I kinda feel the same way. I'm hoping it's celiac because I can make lifestyle changes and be in control...and eventhough ill always have celiac (IF I do have it, I mean), it makes a difference knowing that I can do something to reduce the crazy symptoms and actually feel good. of course, i'd rather not have any disease, but if I'm gonna have one...I wish... -
ARCHIVED Ahhh. Doctor's Appt This Coming Monday
youwillrise posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
...to discuss blood test results. it's been 2 weeks since I had all those vials of blood taken and they haven't called so I *hoooopppppe* that means there isn't anything alarming. I find myself getting nervous as Monday gets closer. Will a gluten intolerance/celiac be detected? I don't know...in any event, I'm just ready to get on the journey to feeling... -
I don't have a celiac diagnosis as of now...but I have been experiencing vertigo and dizziness amongst all the other symptoms. I've also been prone to motion sickness since I was young, though I didn't consider that as a possible sign...hmmm...now that I think of it, though, I've considered myself a healthy person most of my life...I realize now that I have...

Interesting. I've always been verrrrry sensitive to the heat. Since I was young. If it was the slightest bit hot, id feel really uncomfortable. Id get dizzy, have headaches, feel nauseous. My fan is on all year round. I get hot really easily. I don't know if it has anything to do with gluten, but I find it interesting anyway. I would open the window...

Yeah, they're also checking iron and other vitamins/minerals...I'm sure other things, too. Ill wait for the results before I make any changes. Thanks for the help!

Thanks for the welcome, all! I'm hoping for (and expecting) the best. I will be sure to post my results. I got my blood drawn by a hematologist, so hoooopefully he knows how to read and interpret the results. I guess we'll see? : p. I'm thinking of starting a gluten free diet as a test to see if it helps any...I know it'll take time once I start...

hello all! I don't usually do intros, but I figure...what the heck?! I am from new york (not nyc lol). I haven't been diagnosed with celiac or any gluten sensitivity (yet anyway...we'll see what test results show), but I'm here and I'm glad I am. I actually had about 9 million vials of blood drawn today and they'll test for a variety of things (which...
