    Cyclinglady, I wanted to thank you for all your helpful and informative comments. Doc suggested I try the Low Fodmap diet. Haven't had gluten since the day of the blood test, and cut out lactose at the same time. No problem there. Already didn't eat quite a lot of the high fodmap foods anyway, but the ones I'm still struggling with losing are beans...

    I don't know if this is related to the cholesterol results, but something to possibly consider maybe (?) is that I have been trying desperately to lose weight for 6.5 years. In that time I have managed to lose 90 pounds, so yay? I'm ten pounds for my ideal goal weight (finally). The thing is, I have been *perfect* in my efforts. Eat well, exercise like a...

    This just in: Component Your Value Standard Range IgA 243 mg/dL range: 40 - 375 mg/dL So, that's a negative? ETA: never mind, I think this just the one to make sure the actual celiac test will be accurate.

    Looking at all the panels that were run (more than I expected!) it seems he was trying to cast a really wide net to see what would pop up.

    I was very clear that I wanted celiac testing. It could be that the celiac specific tests, the two he said he ordered, still haven't popped up yet. I also have my request for the celiac tests clearly stated in the message system - so it's documented! So I am assuming they are still processing...

    This just came in. Component Your Value Standard Range IgE, QN 101 U/mL (range 0 - 130 U/mL)

    The lab results are trickling in one by one, 9 panels so far, but not the one I'm dying to see! So far - low iron (32, with a ref range of 50-212) -- that is a much different scale/measurement than I've had done in the past, so I'm having a hard time comparing it to my past. I do take iron supplements everyday, btw. Ferritin - 14 ng/mL (ref range 2...

    It is Kaiser! Okay. Good to know.

    I don't have any risk factors for type 2. So I immediately feared he was suspecting type 1. I have quite a bit of tingling hands and arm going on. My BP is close to low. He said lab results could take five days. But the lab tech said they'd possibly be ready and uploaded tonight. Disappointed that he would not run a full panel. I had printed...

    When my doctor ordered the celiac tests he also ordered a fasting glucose test. Why would that be?

    Thank you for the link to information! I am printing it out and making notes in the margins. I am walking into this appointment with ample information in hand, because i have a tendancy to blank and not remember everything and then spend days after kicking myself for one thing or another. The appointment, btw, was moved up to today. I'm suddenly a nervous...

    Sorry, another post. With a question. While I've almost convinced myself that I do have celiac, the main thing making me think "naw, there's no way", is that I've been dealing with this stuff since I was about 14. Wouldn't I be dead from the terrible things that can happen by frying my guts all these years?
  16. ByeRye
    Oh! Another surprising symptom I have in spades is tingling hands and feet. I had no idea that wasn't normal. I self diagnosed myself with Reynauld's Syndrome two winters ago. That's a lot better since moving to CA, though things like the walk-in cooler at Costco are miserable experiences. Lol My hands always feel ice cold, even in summer. I threaten...
