  1. I was actually going to come back here and ask for this. So THANK YOU!! That was a big help listing that info.
  2. I'm a military spouse. My husband is active duty. My husband thinks he might have it too, so I'll have to tell him about that. (he always acquires whatever illness I have. I'm surprised he didn't pop out a child...lol) I will ask about the biopsies. I have a feeling they're long gone though. Thanks.
  3. haha yes, they should! Apparently they skipped this subject in med school? *sigh*
  4. Learning new things every day! That's nice that he did a biopsy at the wrong end. lol Sounds about right for this place. I know they did biopsies during the endoscopy, but I know they didn't test for celiac with those. He did mention that the colonoscopy biopsies were clear of any cancer, colitis or crohn's, which I guess is good. Thanks for the info...
  5. Yes, I can get copies of my reports. I just have to wait until next week when I have the next follow up with my regular doctor. They won't release medical records before then. MitziG, I didn't realize that an allergy test wouldn't show that. So am I right in wanting to get a full gluten panel done? I am just beyond frustrated that they did a biopsy, and...
  6. A little bit of back history= I went in a couple months ago with ongoing severe stomach pains and chronic loose stools. The doctor put me on Nexium 60mg up to 2x/day, and ordered an endoscopy and colonoscopy. Endoscopy showed chronic gastritis, the Colonoscopy showed inflammation in my terminal ileum 'ileitis'. The specialist ordered allergy testing, which...
  7. Are they voluntary or involuntary twitches? Kind of like Tics? Tic disorders are commonly linked to Celiac Disease. I am still in the process of being diagnosed (highly likely have it though), but I have Tourettes Syndrome, and twitch a whole heck of a lot. I don't know that me saying this helps at all, it's more of an - "I can relate" statement.
  8. I'm still waiting on results for celiac, but during my endoscopy my doctor discovered that I have chronic gastritis. He put me on a bland food diet and Nexium. Nothing was ever mentioned about putting a monitor in though. I hope you start feeling better soon!! I can empathize with the stomach pains.... no fun at all.
  9. Well, I finally got my biopsy results back from my doctor. He diagnosed me with Chronic Gastritis and then he said the biopsy from my terminal ileum showed an irregularity consistent with a food allergy. HMMMM So they took blood to do a panel of allergy tests, as well as a fecal fat test. They didn't have me change my diet, fast, or anything before...
  10. Thank you so much for that info! I did do a bit of googling, and read several articles. What's interesting is that I fit the profile for Hemochromotosis... My entire family on both sides is basically from the "Celtic" region. Scotland, Ireland and GB. So we'll see... I did speak with the doctor that did the Endo, and he was able to pull up the test...
  11. I always knew something wasn't right. But a couple weeks ago, I went into the doctor to get my prescription refilled for Nexium because my horrible stomach aches were starting to flare up again. When I visited my doctor and described my symptoms, which included the stomach pain, heartburn, loose BM's, sometimes blood in BM, he insisted that I visit a specialist...
