I can get her into her regular gp to request it as well. Hard to get into ped but could try that route as well.

not sure if it was coincidence or not but dinner was the only meal my daughter managed to eat a lot of and also didnt feel sick...gluten free pasta. I am going to chart what is going on for the next little bit. We are supposed to go back to the ped doc early november so I may just bring her to our family doc and ask for those blood tests. Looking at my "list...

i forgot to add that she has been getting headaches more in the last 6 months as well. not every day by any means but at least 2-3 times per month for 1 or 2 days in a row.

HI everyone, I have been here for a while because I live a gluten free lifestyle due almost entirely to skin issues. My daughter (adopted but biologically my cousin) is 10 years old and less than the 5th percentile for both height and weight. Over the summer, she has actually lost weight which is a bit of a concern for me. It dawned on me last night when...

I actually have a great gluten free flour mixture that I have used and the kids love it but we had company today so I didnt want to throw foreign food items her way! So far though, I feel ok and my skin has not broken out...thank goodness!

I would suggest getting your b12 checked. I am not b12 deficient but my levels are in the low range. If you have mild villi atrophy, there is a good chance you are not absorbing b12. I also take a bcomplex vitamin for energy and stress. Seems to help

So, despite working so hard for the last 2 months to NOT contaminate myself, I went and ate the little pancake cooked droplets while I was talking on the phone with my mother in law. STUPID ME! I directly contaminated myself! THe amount was minute (only one tiny little piece) but still, so much for a clean system! Now, I will see if there are any effects...

about 5 weeks ago, I had some bloodwork done prior to a CT scan for Pulsatile Tinnitus and so I asked my dr if she could test for B12 as it is often related to Pulsatile Tinnitus. Long story short, I got an answer to my PT but also found out I have "mild cerebral atrophy" which (when I looked it up) is connected to low B12. My B12 results were around 3...

I have been away for a week or so but I am glad I came back to read! I will make an appointment tomorrow to see my doc this week. I am usually really good at asking questions but she skipped over the "mild cerebral atrophy" line and went straight to the actual cause of the pulsatile tinnitus, which she didnt even understand! I cant seem to find a whole lot...

so sorry that you had to deal with that outbreak! I totally connected with you when you talked about prednisone because I marched into my doc after 3 months of an outbreak and was willing to take anything that would possibly work. Prednisone was at the top of my list but at the bottom of my dr so I dealt with it for another 3 months before it finally cleared...

I would have stopped but I actually only asked for the B12 blood test on my way to the clinic prior to my CT bloodwork. I am going to increase my B12 fthrough supplements and see if I notice a difference of any kind. BTW I think I ate non gluten free soy sauce last night. I broke out this morning in various itchy spots. Holding onto hope that they dont...

Well, I have had a super busy week and lost track of the postings! Soon, but not soon enough, I will be on summer holidays. For now though, its report cards and the chaos of the end of a school year! Anyways, CT scan results: -mild cerebral atrophy...doesnt sound good to me, especially becuase I am only 35! Any insight on this would be appreciated!...

ok so I also have the forehead bumps! I have never had an acne problem or a blemished face but for the past couple of months, I have had a really bumpy forehead. Not itchy or painful but noticeable to touch. My daughter even asked me why my forehead was so bumpy....oh the joys of sorting all of this out! Glad to hear you are feeling ok today. I just...

I actually only got the message last night. I will make the appointment today and who knows how long it will take to get in. I have to ask, does anyone get rough, bumpy skin in spots? I have had this on my arms off and on for a very long time. It seemed to have cleared up but lately (the last week or so) it is back. ALso, my head has been so, so itchy...

CT scan...done yesterday. They said it would take a couple of days to get back to my doc. GOt a call today wanting me to go in to go over the results. Now I am scared. They dont ever seem to call unless there is something to report but maybe because its a CT they would? ANyone have any thoughts on this one? Should I be worried??
