Hi all, I won't even get into my frustration with my insurance but as of Jan 1st my insurance is only allowing me to see New Jersey doctors. Which is extremely annoying because I live 2 blocks from the Hudson river and my NYC doctors were 20 mins away. I was only diagnosed Dec. 30th with celiac disease. I am really disappointed as I have several...

ARCHIVED Mental Issues from as a Celiac
manitourose replied to symphonyofdreams547's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Right here! Except by the time I was diagnosed I was dealing with many physical issues of varying types. I've dealt with generalized anxiety disorder from my early 20's, I'm late 30's now. I went through a severe spell in my late-20's and then again these past 2 years. My panic attacks and anxiety stemmed from nothing and were so difficult. Depression... -
ARCHIVED Natrol - Fast Dissolve Melatonin 5mg
manitourose posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
This specific product was shared on a Facebook group where the member learned there was indeed wheat in her melatonin. Natrol 5mg Fast Dissolve Melatonin. On many sites (such as Vitacost.com) it is listed as "no wheat" and so on. However when you click on "supplement details" it states "contains wheat" and inactive ingredients lists modified food starch... -

ARCHIVED Good & bad days - is this normal recovery??
manitourose replied to AnxietyQueen's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Hi anxietyqueen, I hope the weekend and last few days have been better. I was diagnosed in mid-Dec and went gluten free Dec. 16th following my biopsy. Up until the day after Christmas I felt horrendous. Then I had several wonderful days and then after New Years I began feeling bloated at night (never had it previously), back to abdominal pains, insomnia... -
ARCHIVED Scheduled for biopsy...
manitourose replied to tooth-whisperer's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
You're close to knowing, just remind yourself of that. It's hard to not get overwhelmed, let your mind wander and feel like the time is slowly ticking! I completely can relate. My endoscopy biopsy was the 16th and I have an appointment for my results on the 29th. My only advice would be to be sure they cover their bases biopsy wise, celiac standards... -
ARCHIVED Celiac panel positive
manitourose replied to manitourose's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Thank you gemini. I'm definitely a worry wart but I am thrilled to be heading down a path to an answer. Just overwhelmed! Trying to tell myself this is the answer, nothing else. Its been a rough 2 years to go from you're perfectly healthy to random diagnosis. I dealt with a completely random anal fistula that colorectal surgeons felt was NOT related... -
ARCHIVED Celiac panel positive
manitourose posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hello all, Thank you for providing a space to chat and gain support. I am hoping to learn more before my endoscopy which is this coming Wednesday. I just received my bloodwork results. I do not have them in hand, but the gastro doctor called to inform me they were positive. He stated my celiac panel number was "163", he said he's seen higher...
