FINALLY got my blood test script faxed to lab today, the GI only ordered: Anti-Endomysial IgA Anti-tissue Transglucamase IgA Is this going to give any accurate view of what is going on? I'm also scheduled for a trans-vaginal ultrasound on May 10th to further look into the bloating/abdominal pain.

Ugh this is getting so frustrating! My stomach isn't in as much pain the last two days but I am SO bloated. Only in my stomach. Literally up 10 pounds from when I had my colonoscopy last Wednesday. There is no way I eat enough to gain 10 pounds. I primarily eat fruits and vegetables, and one regular meal....occasionally a dessert or a splurge.

Do I need to fast for these blood tests? My GI mailed me the forms for blood test (hopefully it is for all of those you listed). If I get it today I'd like to go after work, but if I need to fast I will need to wait until tomorrow.

How do I get one of the doctors to do it? I feel like they keep telling me the other one has to do it. Will the allergy testing assist at all ? (in your experience)

New to the forum, hoping some of you may have advise or similar experiences? Well I am 28 years old,for at least the last year and a half I have been suffering from diarrhea about 3x a week. I've only narrowed it down to 3 specifics brands/products that I absolutely will get D from. Otherwise it is completely random. I never really told doctors about...
