    stay strong - have you tried probiotics? i have been on this journey 15 months now and very careful about what i eat - this week i had some walnuts and almonds and came home bloated and uncomfortable - stabbing pain in my tummy - popped a probiotic and gas x and drank lots of water - unfortunately this process is alot of trying things and eliminating things...

    i’m somewhat scared to do a followup endoscopy because i don’t want to hear anything but i’m healing - ❤️

    corn bothers me a lot - goes right through me and gives me stomach pain as well as nuts and seeds
  5. MADMOM
    was that a sign that your villi was healing because i’ve gained 15 pounds since going gluten-free - 16 months and my symptoms have subsided almost completely
  6. MADMOM
    my doctor is very caring i’m lucky for sure - so if i may ask - how do you know that you healed then?
  7. MADMOM
    oh ok sorry my anxiety focuses on that bad word - oh only because u had mentioned that generally a person my age 49 can take up to 2 years to heal so u figured why not just wait but i may do it soon now im paranoid
  8. MADMOM
    i meant after 16 months of eating clean the chances are still high?

    a follow up biopsy, then it might make sense to get it sooner rather than later. on my initial biopsy nothing was even pre c dr went in deeper than normal and all biopsies were good - i was so scared he reiterated it over and over that there was nothing even pre dangerous so is it still high of a chance that after 16 months of gh the chances are...

    when did you go for your first followup post dx? should i wait for the 2 year mark ?
  11. MADMOM
    yep i feel like you might be right but knowing that at my age it takes longer to heal i wanted to wait it out a bit - im feeling so much better i don’t feel there is a concern to do it yet but 💁🏻‍♀️

    so i am 15 months into my celiac and gluten-free journey feeling so much better bloodwork last i checked was almost in normal ranges and i’ve gained 15 pounds - not too thrilled about that but i feel better -overall - iron levels have dramatically improved and my cbc count was finally perfect - my GI had initially recommended doing a followup endoscopy a...

    i agree i felt that pain in center right to lower quadrant as well - especially if by accident i got glutened but it slowly subsided- once in a blue i get a twinge here and there

    take magnesium glycinate 100 mg a day it does not cause stomach issues - i bought a bottle on amazon for 16 dollars gluten free
  15. MADMOM
    absolutely you should always check - i guess i should have mentioned that
  16. MADMOM
    use supplements like ashkwanda - i may have spelled it wrong and melatonin to relax and take a probiotic - i use garden of life 50 billion cfu they work wonders on ur gut and help stabilize ur poop - amazon sells them
  17. MADMOM
    try not to take anti depressants and focus on eating healthy and clean - i promise you things will improve - i get a hiccup here and there from time to time but i’ve never felt more energetic and healthy / ❤️
  18. MADMOM
    hello - i’ve been on this journey for 13 months and read and read all sorts of things when i got diagnosed - i made my GI swear that i would be ok and i wouldn’t get cancer from this - his reply was “ i’ve been a GI for 30 years and have never lost someone to the c word because of celiac” i trust him and i trust the many ppl on this site who have guided me...

    there are tons of clean food you can eat - i’ve got my kids eating some gluten free foods and they love it - it’s really not that bad
  20. MADMOM
    i agree - i’ve been on this journey for 13 months now and at first felt frustrated having to read labels and felt limited to what i could enjoy but after several months i found so many great options and i have gotten so much healthier and gotten my levels almost under the normal range after only 8 months of eating gluten-free ( i will be checking my levels a...

    mission makes delicious gluten free wraps i use them in place of bread for tuna wraps turkey wraps and egg wraps - there are many gluten free products out there - don’t give up - it can be frustrating at first but i’ve even got my kids eating alot of gluten free things and they really can taste the difference and enjoy it -
  22. MADMOM
