Thanks knitty kitty, Wish id have understood this better at the begining. Your analogy makes total sense..... Id researched cross reactivity in the beginning but was unsure of how legit it all was, avoid gluten and you will be OK is the rhetoric hmmmmmmmmm but it goes deeper than this. Im really really annoyed that my Gastro Dr...

Hi Christina, I definitely think there is an element of being overweight at the time of diagnosis, and when one is still having ongoing symptoms and the weight is dropping off i think its only natural to be worried, ( i am a worrier ) I think we all worry and think the worst when it comes to weight loss Thank you and everyone else for your...

Update.............. So i had my follow up with my gastro dr yesterday for the results of my endoscopy and my 11 biopsies. He was happy to tell me that all was clear and the villi had healed to normal hooray. He wasnt concerned about bile or gastritis he said yeah the stomach does look red but is not inflamed so bile reflux or gastritis is...

Hi Rogol72, i didnt ask at the time as it was right after the endoscopy but will try and remember to ask when i have my follow up for the biopsy results with my Gastro Dr, My guess would be that i no longer eat massive carb heavy meals anyomore like i used to do, i used to be a very big eater and ever since being a child was brought up to eat all of...

UPDATE......... So initial results from yesterdays endoscopy was, 2cm hiatus hernia wich has reduced from 6cm last year, Small intestine looks healthy and healing seems to have taken place ( villi ) Bile and mild gastritis were found, i had mild gastritis on last scope but not the bile, Apparently bile shouldn't be found in the stomach...

Really appreciate the advice peeps, Russ314, i will definitely be pushing for an investigation into vit deficiencies on my next appointment to the Drs in a few days As i do feel from the advice you have all given that maybe this is now the avenue i need to go down, i really thought that my current diet would suffice its obvious i seem to...
