    I expected it to take longer to get an appointment, but I now have my first meeting with the GI Dr. next week, then I'll be booking my appointment for procedure. I am the WORST with medical stuff. My heart races just entering a medical building, so knowing I'll be having these procedures has really set me off. I know I won't be 'on the ball' for the meeting...

    Curious, has anyone had, as a symptom, periods of being incredibly thirsty, even though you've been drinking plenty of water? Sometimes I feel dehydrated. I don't have diabetes, I do know that can be a symptom of that condition.

    Ok that's wonderful to know. I had read that on Celiac Canada's website (I think). I'll do it at night...although one of the things that used to happen to me was waking up with this panic/ominous feeling at night. I've told my Mom she should be tested. She's been dealing with food issues for years. Mostly controlled with diet, and not noticeably wheat...

    My Dr. also said that about thyroid! The appt went well. She is sending me for endoscopy and colonoscopy. She said to eat gluten one week before, which according to everything else, is not correct. My concern now is this- I didn't eat much anyhow, but I can't imagine eating 4 pieces of bread a day for 3 months. I'd eat half that when I was eating...

    Thanks so much. I have three kids, and my oldest has recently been tested for thyroid issues (at my request). It's slightly off, so they keep following up 6 months later to see if there are changes. I'm now going to ask about adding a celiac test...he's got some symptoms, so I think it's worth it. I may also ask about my other two, as there are also issues...

    Thanks so much. It def freaked me out! I do take magnesium, but hadn't been regularly in the last month. Basically we've been camping/on holiday since mid-July, so not in our regular routine I've done a candida diet before, and am ok with restrictions. The biggest issue is that I haven't eaten meat in over 20 years, so while I eat fish and eggs, it can...

    Thanks so much. I haven't had any gluten since Thursday morning....I was trying to settle down my immune system. It's my understanding that here is can take some time to get an appointment with a GI Dr. Thankfully I was able to get an appt to see my Dr this afternoon. I needed to calm down these symptoms to try to calm my mind from assuming they are being...

    Hello! I apologize in advance if this is long and a bit detailed, but I'm feeling very anxious, and have so many questions. I'm a 36 year old woman. I've had lots of digestive issues over the last few years. Nothing overly bad, but definitely unpredictable, comes and goes. I deal with anxiety, and have dark circles. There have also been times where my...
