ARCHIVED Why Do The Endoscopy/biopsy?
Half Asleep replied to Half Asleep's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Thank you for all your responses. nvsmom- I will look up those books. My doctor suggested the paleo diet too. 1D-I had a ton of bloodwork done (and saliva)-nutrients included. Everything the insurance would pay for plus $1200 out of pocket. I was desperate to figure out what was causing my anxiety. I was low on a few things and have gotten supplements... -

Thank you, Mom-of-Two. He will eat sandwiches with just cheese or just peanut butter. I haven't seen the brand of bread you mentioned. I have bought Kinnickinnick and Udi's (or Rudis-always mix them up!) I'm just worried about him getting contaminated and not making it to the bathroom. Though the doc did say since he didn't have stomach problems before... -

Thank you for your answers. Gives me some hope that maybe they won't push for the scope. I'm sure that getting a diagnosis is a relief for people who have been suffering with stomach problems, but we weren't. I went to the doctor b/c my anxiety had gotten crazy out of control. The doctor ran a ton of bloodwork and a 24 hr saliva test. I had no idea I... -
ARCHIVED Why Do The Endoscopy/biopsy?
Half Asleep posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hi, I was diagnosed with celiac a few weeks ago based on positive blood tests. My doctor said I could do the endoscopy/biopsy, but that it wasn't necessary because my tests were very positive, it's an invasive procedure, and even if they didn't find damage yet, I needed to get off gluten. I had my kids tested a couple of weeks ago and my son tested...
