well i finally had my appt today and it went really well. i actually got to tell him everything that is going on with me which is a first for any dr's appt i have ever had. he first talked about IBS but he said that it is a diagnosis of exclusion and he would never diagnose anyone with it before performing other tests. so he did a full celiac panel and i am scheduled for a biopsy on friday. he says that it could be celiac. i didn't even have to fight with him for the tests. maybe i will finally have an answer after all of these years. :)

It is great that the doctor is running the Celiac test first and not trying to blame it on IBS! Let us know how things go! Take care

      Feel Good gluten free chicken soup dumplings

      By ARSTONE · Posted

      I recently ate a package of feel good brand gluten-free chicken soup dumplings. Immediately after eating them, my stomach became extremely extremely bloated and gassy and it's two days later now and I'm still extremely uncomfortable. They say there's gluten-free and there doesn't appear to be anything in the ingredients that I think would be the problem. Has anyone else eaten these and had this experience?

      Royal Caribbean Only, Please

      Great tips, Deb. Thanks.  What a pity that they no longer mark items as gluten-free. And it is even more of a shame that you must bring protein bars instead of the crew helping you with your needs. Are you planning on sailing Royal again?

      I've not heard of any issues with Primal Kitchen, but it certainly would be worth not using the brand for a while to see if this helps. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.
