I did not know where to post this but does anyone know any specfics I would need to tell the surgeon when I get these removed my mom has been alittle worried about them putting me to sleep is all that stuff ok for celiacs? I am an ok healthy weight but does that effect the stuff they use to put you to sleep? I get nervous with surgerys. Has anyone had this proceedure done without much trouble?

i had them out in 7th grade, the easiest mouth surgery i ever had, it took them a LOT to put me to sleep, but after that i was fine, surgery is fine for celiacs.

They didn't put me to sleep and mine were impacted. They gave me two valium, then novocain and that laughing gas. This was over 20 years ago, but I know some people were put to sleep for it back then, too. I didn't feel a thing, and was very happy with the valium! I even watched in a mirror!

Buy soft foods, that's my advice!!! It's not fun, but you'll do fine.

flagbabyds,

thats encouraging, Ive heard you say before that you are little too so the amount they used did not effect you or cause them to have a hard time waking you up?

You do need to let them know about the celiac and make sure that everything they use is gluten free. One of my molars went hot after an overzealous cleaning and even though my dentist had checked everything the surgeon she sent me to did not. By the time I got back from surgery, they put me out, I had blisters in my mouth and throat on the side they pulled the tooth along with a white coating that went down into my throat. These went away quickly but caused the gums to recede a lot exposing the bottom edge of my new crowns. The stuff they will put you to sleep with is most likely okay but you do need to worry about anything they stick in your mouth.

Just let them know you need it to be gluten-free, and they can accomodate. According to my dentist, he has some registry that tells them all about what of their products have allergens, etc. I have not ever been glutened by a dentist, though one of them did buy different gloves to work on me, and a different kind of dental dam, so maybe somethings gluten in the dusting?

As for the wisdoms, Valium is an awesome drug. I also need extra anesthesia to get knocked out, but I was out like a light with that stuff, happy as could be. They gave me an IV of though, which might have helped. My only thing was when I woke up I started crying, which they said was cause they had to give me so much valium. I wasn't scared or sad or in pain, was just crying. Was kinda weird. Also, yay do it now before they impact. I never had a problem with mine, then had to have emergency surgery overnight. Getting them out is totally the right thing to do, and a great excuse to get pampered and eat lots of pudding. (Try Kozy Shack, is super nummy and gluten-free)

No need to worry about novocaine or any other injectable drug :)

Just be sure to let your dentist know you need to be gluten-free.

      Alcohol

      By James47 · Posted

      So as some of you already know I was 47 turning 48 before my diagnosis so a lot and a lot of internal damage. I no longer obviously drink beer unless gluten-free variants of it but does anyone else really struggle when just drink any sorts of alcohol now. I'm really thinking going tea total and avoiding it completely

      Hi CathiJean, Wipe those tears my friend.  Finding out that you have celiac just gave you the cheat code on how to start feeling better!  It may feel like a loss right now, but honestly within 6 months you will start feeling better.  Within a year you will look back and wonder how in the world did I survive feeling like that for what feels like a lifetime?  You mentioned 15 years, that's about how long I have been really ill as well.  I had told every doctor I saw that I kept getting sick, infections, hair loss, joint pain, etc. and nobody would listen to me until I turned 45.  I went in for a colonoscopy and the doc says how often do you have bowel movements and I said usually between 10-15 times a day.  Suddenly I had someone actually listen to me and the testing began.  What I can tell you is use this forum, talk to peers, read everything you can about how to gluten-free your kitchen, encourage your family to participate in your journey (trust me they love you enough to make the effort), how to order food in restaurants, and how to avoid cross contamination.  Accept that you will make mistakes and allow yourself grace as you implement your new normal and have a clear understanding that going gluten free will begin healing your body in ways that you will not even begin to understand until you actually do it.  So, have faith that the nutrient deficiencies that you are probably experiencing right now can be corrected and you are on a bright path to feeling SO much better.  Think about how incredible your mom journey is about to become as you begin to feel better!!  Your kids are going to be amazed at your energy levels, ability to play and go do stuff...you are leveling up knowing that you have Celiac.  Knowing gives you power my friend, harness it and have gratitude that it was discovered...even if the docs missed it - you know now and keep moving forward.  You got this!!

      Negative biopsy and seeking doctor recs in Los Angeles

      If you have been eating the gluten equivalent of 4-6 slices of wheat bread daily for say, 4 weeks, I think a repeat blood test would be valid.

      Negative biopsy and seeking doctor recs in Los Angeles

      By englishbunny · Posted

      it did include Total Immunoglobin A which was 135, and said to be in normal range. when i did the blood test in January I would say I was on a "light' gluten diet, but def not gluten free.  I didn't have any clue about the celiac thing then.  Since then I have been eating a tonne of gluten for the purpose of the endoscopy....so I'm debating just getting my blood test redone right away to see if it has changed so I'm not waiting another month...

      Welcome to the forum, @englishbunny! Did your celiac panel include a test for "Total IGA"? That is a test for IGA deficiency. If you are IGA deficient, other IGA test resultls will likely be falsely low. Were you by any chance already practicing a reduced gluten free diet when the blood draw was done?
