Current Been Tested

[Lisa79]

Hi Everyone

Well I have had a recent blood test which showed a very High intolerance to wheat, my GI has me booked for a gastroscopy in 10 days. He suspects celiac, I am unsure of which blood test he has done.

I have had ongoing history with my stomach for 7 years, I had major bloating to the extent I look 8 months pregnant. During the search I have had laproscopic surgery twice, one for ovarian cysts and once for a gallbladder removal. Neither of which fixed my bloating problem.

I have also had CT scans and issues with major ongoing headaches that last days or weeks at a time.

After reading a list of possible symptoms I have so many.

Dry Lips and mouth.

Mood swings and difficulty to focus.

Extremely tired and body aches

Bloating

Constipation and occasional Diarrhea

Anemia

Anxiety

and I am sure many more.

I was tested for Celiac 7 years ago, although test was negative, deep down I felt that was incorrect but left it at that.

I think the bad thing here now I feel sick from eating, and I cant stop eating wheat until after the biopsy.

Anyway I am please to have found this site and will be posting more once the results are in.

Thanks

Lisa

Welcome to the board. You have found a great place to learn what you need to learn about the celiac lifestyle. You don't have to wait for the biopsy results to start the diet. You can start the day the biopsy is done and hopefully you will heal quickly.
