ARCHIVED How Long Is Testing Process?
taynichaf replied to StormyWen's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I am still waiting for my test results while eating gluten And I actually am doing the gluten challenge for 6 weeks! Even though I I havent been strictly gluten free for long, I want accurate tests. You will probably just have to wait an extra week to atleast see your blood tests... But even then, the blood tests might not even be accurate! I say you beg... -

ARCHIVED Alcohol And Black Puke?
taynichaf replied to taynichaf's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Well it hadn't happened again..but that's scary:( I learned my lesson from that night though. And I don't drink very much! So it's not like I grew a tolerance to it..when I drink it's like my body is impaired but my mind stays sober..and I quit drinking all together because of this. -

ARCHIVED Alcohol And Black Puke?
taynichaf posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
A few years ago I drank to much and blacked out...the people taking care of me said I kept puking up black tar like stuff...I just remembered it and looked it up thinking it would mean alcohol poisoning..but all I found was GI related things that talked about puking up blood!.. Could this be an early symptom of gluten intolerance?? Or does this just happen... -

ARCHIVED Anyone Else Doubt That They'd Be Diagnosed?
taynichaf replied to taynichaf's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I'm still doing the challenge! It's just, when I went to the doc she asked if I wanted to be tested now or if I wanted to wait..and I couldn't resist ha,I want to know ASAP! Ha. Ah! I feel so bad that you've been eating gluten for so long I reaally hope that you can get an endoscopy to see what's going on! I'll pray that all goes well for you! And... -

ARCHIVED How Do You Find A Doctor With The Right Tests!?
taynichaf replied to taynichaf's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Ohh! That makes sense.... For the tests i've done, I just tell the doctor that I think I have celiac disease and ask for the full panel... Then they would just find a test and i'd go get blood drawn. I shouldve tried to look up certain tests before... but I never thought I could even chose, ha. But thanks!! -
ARCHIVED How Do You Find A Doctor With The Right Tests!?
taynichaf replied to taynichaf's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Where I am the doctors choose the tests... I could probably try and get my own somehow, but insurance wouldn't cover that and I'm unemployed.. Thank you for the info! And I will def pray for you <3 -
I'm not sure if that wording was right..Lol. But anyways, does anyone know about how long it takes to get a negative test result?? I know no one probably knows for sure... But i'm just wondering from anyones expiriences or maybe someone who just knows a lot about this?... Since the beggining of the year I was following a really clean diet with just a...

ARCHIVED How Do You Find A Doctor With The Right Tests!?
taynichaf posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I saw one specifically for a full celiac panel... He tested like two things out of the whole panel I requested. They were negative, but I'm not convinced. I just went to a different doctor to get the test and I'm not sure what she tested.. But I asked if it would be the FULL celiac panel, including the the one that starts with D(I had it written down) and... -

ARCHIVED Could Be Celiac? Starting Gluten Free?
taynichaf replied to Erbear289's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I know, it sucks..but keep eating gluten! You can get a test within like a week, so just wait..and even after that you'd probably want to keep eating it incase you want an endoscopy. And then of everything comes back negative just consider yourself gluten intolerant and don't eat it! -
ARCHIVED Who Has Done The "gluten Challenge" Before Being Tested?
taynichaf replied to taynichaf's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
That's such a long time!! And the test was negative?! Ugh, sorryyy:( I know this will be hard, but if I don't give myself the best possible glutening, I'll be wondering for the rest of my life. And I was scared to do the challenge before, but I understand that it's the best thing I can do right now.. thank you so much:) -

Since he only tested like two things im going to a different doctor, but this time I want to make sure to gluten myself right, for accurate test results. So who has done the challenge?? How long were you gluten free before... -

ARCHIVED Does Anyone Else Have A Lump Behind Their Jaw?
taynichaf posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I havent seen anything like this related to celiac, but i just thought i should ask. under my ear lobe in the back of my jaw i can feel this pea-sized bump. It doesnt stick out or cause much trouble, but sometimes when I start chewing something I get a shooting pain where the lump is. It doesnt happen all the time, but it seems to be happening more and more... -
ARCHIVED My Negative Blood Test Results.
taynichaf replied to taynichaf's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Okay, I made a new doctors appointment at a different place(last doctor couldnt test for full panel or anything). I'll talk to my new doctor and go from there, and I might just request a DNA test to start out with. If that test is positive I'll restart a gluten challange and go from there... I will make sure that I get the DGP test this time! I havent...
