  1. I've only been gluten-free for 2 months. (I was diagnosed with Celiac in July.) I was accidentally glutened this past weekend. It was horrible. We went out to eat and I "thought" I had all my bases covered. I missed the marinade for the chicken I ordered ----- it had soy sauce in it. Within 15 minutes I was feeling sick. Thank God we made it home in...
  2. Hi! I was just diagnosed with Celiac Disease...today (my biopsy results were just posted). My celiac panel blood test results were in the hundreds, so my doc was confident that my biospy would be positive, too, and it was. But I was diagnosed with Hashimotos Thyroidits (autoimmune hypothyroidism) in 2002. Your antibody numbers would seem to suggest that...
  3. My doctor just put up my biopsy results. They were positive for Celiac. No big surprise, as I was expecting it. I'm on Day 3 of going Gluten Free. My first trip the grocery store on Sunday was a little .........daunting, to say the least. But I did a walk through of a local health good store and felt much better about my "choices". Thank you everyone...
  4. My endo went very well. I was out before they finished strapping the mouth guard on. Unfortunately, the night before I didn't get any sleep b/c I was catching a cold and my left sinus under my eye was blocked, causing my ear & teeth to hurt all night long and I couldn't really take any meds, except tylenol b/c of the procedure. Add to that very restless...
  5. I go tomorrow morning @7 for my Endo. If I'm positive, I'm hoping for quick feedback like you received. Although, with my high positive blood tests, I plan on going gluten-free anyway. (I'm enjoying a cupcake as I type this.)
  6. Wow...withdrawal? I didn't realize that many people experience this. I am scheduled for an Endo on 7/9 and plan on going gluten free soon after. All my labs came back positive ("really" positive). So evenif I end up with a negative Endo biopsy, I'm pretty sure gluten-free is going to be recommended by my doctor. But if I get any more tired/fatigued...
  7. nvsmom -Thanks for the reply about the samples. That is something I did not know. And I don't think the doc mentioned it! janiney08 - when is your endo scheduled for? Please come back and share your results and I'll do the same!
  8. I'm in the exact same position. My endo is scheduled for 7/9. My doctor told me that if he didn't tell me he was doing the endo, I'd never know. I'm not worried. And he said that he is convinced I have celiac disease b/c my blood test results were so high. I'm not experiencing any gastro symptoms, although the last couple months I feel fuller sooner...
