hello everyone, I've been checking out the webiste for a couple days. I like it alot, and great info. Just the other day My Doctor and I decided trying a Gluten Free diet to see if it will Help me. I really need to make sure I do it, thats the thing! haha its hard to give up the food you love, but hates you. I've been looking at alot of info, and it seems like alot of the stuff I like I can still eat, except bread, I have to change that.

My doc and I determined that if the gluten free diet doesnt work, I will have to do a Colonoscopy in a couple of months, because my Pill Cam endoscopy had mixed results, so in order to know for sure, if its Crones or Celiac I will have to get a biopsy. TOTALLY not looking forward to that. Im sure most of you have been through it though. I look forward to talking with you all, Im sure Ill have lots of Questions.

Welcome to the forum puggirl! Lots of people post questions in the pre-diagnosis screening area about testing and such. And then there is the post diagnosis coping area for getting along the way in style. There are plenty of threads on various topics that may relate to your concerns, and there also are articles to read. You might want to search for threads on endoscopy. See you around the board!

      Current "gluten challenge" recommendations are the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) daily leading up to the day of the biopsy.

      Thank you for your input!  I would really like to know if I have celiac disease because you need make sure you are not getting any cross contamination due to cancer concerns.  I guess I need to start with a knowledgeable Gastroenterologist. Thank you again!

      Correct. I’m doing both in the same go though. Thanks for clarifying before I confused someone. I’m doing a colonoscopy for something else and then they added the endoscopy after the test.

      It is a biopsy but it's not a colonoscopy, it's an endoscopy.
