Bad Health Day Yesterday/today

I know I rant about this stuff here a lot, but I havent been in this much pain in a while, if ever. i dont know what happened. I didnt get contaminated somehow because the extreme diarrhea started in the morning. even when I wasnt eating/drinking I was emptying. And then I tried to eat again and some stayed in me but on my walk to school yesterday I almost passed out twice (from the dizziness/nausea). Then at school it wasnt SO bad, I sat in a dumb chair most of the day so that was uncumfy. Then towards the end of my classes already I had diarrhea again--with blood. Then it appeared like I was starting my time of the month again (much later during classes, i'm SURE the 2 arent connected). But there wasnt much there.

As the night progress i got WORSE. The pains were (and still are) too much to handle. I've never felt my right side throbbing me this bad. And I cant say its from time of the month, if i get cramps from those its right across the whole stomach, not just my left side.

In the middle of the night I was tempted to wake up my landlord or the other lady that lives here to take me to the hospital, but i didnt--instead I tried to sleep. I finally passed out around 5:30, woke up 12:30 (but a ton of tossing and turning in between).

Today like I said, I'm not any better. I still have that THROBBING pain. And yet again, theres more blood when I go pee than there is on the pad. And its VERY painful to pee today...

I'm gonna call mom right away and see if dad works any late shifts this week and see if she can sneak me in to the docs SOON :blink:

*sigh* how I wish one of these towns had a walk-in clinic :(

Oh Lisa.. You poor thing. It sounds like a bladder infection. Have they checked your kidneys. If I remember right you had an infection a few months ago.

Definitely go to the doctor.

Thanks hun! :) I'm still not feeling any better--still cant sleep, still cant barely eat, still in awful pain. So tomorrow will have to do I guess :blink: As long as i get something for the pain, it dont even matter to me already what they give me or what testing they do. Because its totally making school impossible to focus... :unsure:

I PROMISE I will post in the morning/afternoon after my appointment to see if it was a waste of time or not..hope for me it wont be!!

No actually another 46 days til Foothills. The guy today was just useless. He was some family doc i never saw before and he gave me a couple prescriptions of things I've had before and said "not much this Canora doctor can do" (which really is true if you think about it). And that was it. And he was sympathetic, he said "thats gotta be rough for you" -- at least he dont think i'm making it up! Blah....

      High blood test numbers - with scales. Any advice?

      By RMJ · Posted

      I’d say celiac is likely.  Please continue to eat plenty of gluten until your endoscopy to be sure that any gluten-related damage can be seen.  Plus it gives you one last chance to enjoy your favorite gluten-containing foods. I hope the endoscopy/biopsies give you a definitive answer.

      By TexasCeliacNewbie · Posted

      I do also have the bloating, gas, constipation, hair loss, an auto-splenectomy that no one can see any reason for and some elevated liver enzymes that don't seem to have a cause, I also have joint pain and some spinal compression fractures that have no explanation.  I am only 42 so haven't had a bone density test yet.  My calcium was normal, but my D was a little low.  They haven't checked for any other vitamin deficiencies yet.  My blood test for an autoimmue disorder was quite high but my Thyroid was all normal.

      Hi, I have been having a lot of back pain and gut issues for 8 weeks or so.  I saw the GI on Monday and my results just came in from the lab.  Some of these number are high and off the little chart from the lab.  I am reading this correctly that I most likely have Celiac, right???  It would explain a lot of things for me.  She does have me scheduled for a colonoscopy and endoscopy in  2 weeks to do the biopsy.  I posted this prior, but forgot to put the range assuming they were all the same.  Someone advised me to repost with the ranges for some insight in the meantime. Immunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum 140 (normal) - Normal is 87-352 Deamidated Gliadin Abs, IgA 256 (High) - Moderate to strong positive at or above 30 Deamidated Gliadin Abs, IgG 65 (High) - Moderate to strong positive at or above 30 t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA 31 (High) - Moderate to strong positive above 10 t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgG 10 (High) - Positive is at or above 10

      Colonoscopy with large area of inflammation

      By trents · Posted

      Usually, the blood testing is done first and the endoscopy/biopsy follows for confirmation if there are positive antibody test scores. Historically, the endoscopy with biopsy has been considered to be the gold standard for diagnosing celiac disease. If the tTG-IGA scores are very high (5x-10x normal), some doctors will forego the endoscpoy/biopsy and grant a celiac disease diagnosis without it. So, if you are starting with the endoscopy/biopsy that may be all you need to arrive at a diagnosis. Another possibility would be for the GI doc to do a blood draw for antibody testing on the same day you come in for the endoscopy/biopsy.
