Little vent-My Mom is another story.  She tries to be helpful, except I've asked if she cannot loudly proclaim in the grocery store, "Do you see any of your gluten foods?"   I bite my tongue because I want to say, yes I see PLENTY of gluten foods, but I need gluten-free.  Do you think next time we're near the diet coke, I should loudly exclaim, "Do you see any of your aspartame beverages?"  end rant

 

 

LOL *snort* 'aspartame beverages'  that is too funny - i'm going to do that to my mother-in-law!  she is constantly trying to feed me cupcakes - i don't know if she is just dumb or what her deal is - but she does love the aspartame beverages.  ima hafta tell her sugar is the same thing don't worry about it hahaha - thanks for the chuckle :)

 

tinychef - settle down, now.  everything's gonna be alll right.  my son is a diabetic so let me tell you this:  it's hard to figure out what combination of things are going to make you feel better!  when he was first diagnosed his sugar was all over the place so we had to figure out how to feed him, whether his background worked better for him taking it in the morning or at night, should he have a bedtime snack, blah, blah, blah - it took awhile but he is doing well with it.  it's all a learning experience - you can have a million tests and still be paralyzed with no hard and fast answer.  but, yes, get your stuff together and ms. karen will help you sort it out.  we're all here for you. now, go wash your face, put on your big girl pants and let me see that smile.  yeah, that one  ;)

And don't forget to clean your bathroom!

( maybe I should aim that comment about 6 foot high at my house?)

If you have all your Celiac lab work reports....post what you have. Give the "ref. ranges" and the answers. If it looks completely odd, message me. Maybe I can help you figure out what to post. If we need to, you can cover your name, address, hospital, etc and scan them and email them to me. Then I can explain what the ranges are or tell you the stupid doc didn't give you what you thought you had! Cause.....that never happens ( said sarcastically).

I just got more blood work friday... So I should get the results by this coming friday, and then i'll post! The doctor also did other tests. She did one to check for iron deficiency anemia... So if that says im anemic again, I think I can tie that back to eating gluten again(last time I got tested ai was gluten light/free for awhile and it came back borderline, but normal) But I will deffinatly talk through it all with you, thanks.

      Question on if i can contact my gastro doctor whenever?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      In the US you don't need a referal to see a specialist if you are self pay. PPO you can go directly to any specialist or doctor you prefer. HMO you’ll choose a primary doctor to manage all your care. Pricing of the insurance will vary, as will prescriptions coverage.

      Welcome to the forum, @lsky! In Canada I believe your healthcare system is totally socialized so I doubt if you have the option of making direct appointments with specialists. In the U.S. it is becoming more and more that way as most people here now are covered by some government managed healthcare network and almost all providers and specialists are part of those networks. Here and there you will find independent providers that take private pay only but it is the exception. Both in Canada and in the U.S. I believe there is a concerted effort to always keep the PCP in the loop.

      By lsky · Posted

      I have had celiac disease since i was 7 and i've recently had worsening symptoms, I live in canada and the doctors right now are horrible so my general doctor never puts in my referrals or she does it wrong and i have to wait months-years for an answer. I was wondering I already have a Gastroenterologist, could i just contact him and ask to book an upcoming appointment? i'm not sure if it's different in canada or not.

      Symptoms after ingesting gluten

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum @Juliana82! Bleeding where? Thanks for the articles on seronegative celiac disease. As I recall, one of our moderators is seronegative and has been faithful to draw our attention to this phenomenon at different times. The heterozygous factor seronegative celiac disease is an important factoid I believe.

      Toddler Diagnosis?

      By Wrensmith · Posted

      With such a weak positive, his got may or may not be cleared in three months. My daughter when diagnosed at the age of seven had a TTG score of 388. It was 18 months on a gluten-free diet before her levels returned to normal. it seems to me that when you started something that allows your son to gain weight, as he clearly needs to do, you may want to keep doing it.  Sometimes you just need to figure out the science of it as you go along. Have you been tested?  That’s how I found out I had celiac disease, was after my daughter was diagnosed, and the recommendation given to me was that all of her first-degree relations should be tested as well. I came back with a weak positive when I was on a largely, though not entirely, gluten-free diet (cooking for my newly diagnosed child). good luck with everything.
