Awaiting New Bloodwork

I went to see my GP yesterday. He has ordered the anti tissue transglutaminase. He said I need to restart eating gluten, though I have been off it for a week. He didn't have a clue for how long. I called the lab and they did not know either.

So last night, in the name of gluten loading, I had three beers...and agadashi tofu with my usual sushi. This morning I had bran buds and a sandwich at lunch. Now I think I may just die! My stomach is cramping worse then a charliehorse in an olympic speed trial. I feel like I should stick a pin into my stomach and deflate myself. My coworker just kindly mentioned that I look bloated. Nice.

 

Ughhhh. I want to not eat the gluten...I was feeling crappy...but way better then this.

Somehow this doesn't seem the right thing to do. I know after reviewing many articles on this, doctors do say to do this.......but when you think about it.....it's almost like drugs......yes, if you take, yes they will show up positive. My dr. (I am not saying he's correct....believe me on this one), but he took a blood test celiac panel (he called it) just walking into his office, eating previously as I normally would not a lot of gluten, but some (bread, chips).......I personally would not overeat gluten again (unless I just crashed over something stressful and didn't give a d....m! ) I down deep no what agrees w/me (on how I feel and how my stools are) and I'm finally realizing this is just something I, myself, am going to have to control one way or another or pay the price!
Good luck and I do mean this.....
