Symptoms Come And Go..

I've noticed that my stomach symptoms basically do what they want, when they want.

Some days I will eat and feel terrible and so sick after. And sometimes, they don't seem to bother me too much..I still notice them but they aren't as bad. I have my good days and my bad days.

Is this normal for Celiac? Does anyone else have this problem?

It was normal for me for years before the upset tummy became a daily then daily and nightly occurance.

      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.

      Well I’m going on the gluten farewell tour so they are about to find out lol. I keep saying biopsy but yeah it’s a scope and stuff. I’m a dummy but luckily my doctor is not.

      The biopsy for celiac disease is done of the small bowel lining and in conjunction with an "upper GI" scoping called an endoscopy. A colonoscopy scopes the lower end of the intestines and can't reach up high enough to get to the small bowel. The endoscopy goes through the mouth, through the stomach and into the duodenum, which is at the upper end of the intestinal track. So, while they are scoping the duodenum, they take biopsies of the mucosal lining of that area to send off for microscopic analysis by a lab. If the damage to the mucosa is substantial, the doc doing the scoping can often see it during the scoping.

      Yeah I had zero thoughts on celiac it was an ibs referral. She suspected celiac when she started questioning me and I already needed a colonoscopy which I guess is why she didn’t care that I had been fairly gluten free up to that point. Because they would have just done the biopsy when doing the colonoscopy. I don’t know we will see just figured I’d put that info on the forum in case someone finds it interesting later. I’ll update in April when I find out.
