Saw the GI today. I showed him my test results from the celiac panel and even though they're negative he still wants to do an endoscopy. Plus, I'm having bloodwork drawn for IBD and getting a colonoscopy. At least they're doing both colonoscopy and endoscopy the same day. Hopefully will get some sort of info and news to explain everything. Thanks...

The results make zero sense to me. I can't tell what exactly my dr ran for blood. Sorry it all looks jumbled. I wasn't able to post the pic of the results so I had to copy and paste. My GI dr is on Friday so I'll have him run the exact test needed.

Nothing from my test results makes any sense to me.

I'm not sure. They called and said I was negative, that was it. I requested a full celiac panel but this was the report emailed to me. I'm guessing it wasn't the full panel needed.

I must mention my connective tissue disorder blood test still hasn't come in yet.

Got my celiac results back for blood test and it was negative. Yes, I have been eating gluten. Do I still pursue endoscopy with gi? My results will be emailed to me tomorrow so I can post them. Let me know your thoughts.

thanks nvsmom

Thank you very much

I'm pretty sure my thyroid has been checked. Next time I'll see my dr I'll double check though. I'm positive my first neuro checked my thyroid to rule that out with my seizures.

So far I've only seen blood in my stool once and that was two weeks ago. It looked small pools of blood mixed with diarrhea. It was dark red. Haven't noticed it since but the diarrhea has been on and off. When off I'm constipated.

Not sure about the fecal test. I did have a stool sample early July because the diarrhea was so bad I thought it was food poisoning. No signs of food poisoning were found. Should I post those results?

My gi appointment is on August 22nd and I am definitely requesting biopsy. If he won't do it, I'll find someone else.

Not sure if they did a full celiac panel but I requested it. I am going to have the biopsy no matter what the blood results are. As soon as I blacked out today my labradane puppy came over and laid by my side till I was able to get up. He was very sweet. Usually he barks his head off at me before and during a seizure and tries to bite me. This time he...

Waiting on both results of my celiac blood test and connective tissue disorders test. Of course till I get a firm diagnosis I know to not stop eating gluten. Well yesterday I had a sub and Brussels Sprouts and saved the rest for dinner. Today I had another sandwich and chips and feel completely off. This is the usual feeling I get before I have a seizure...
