Thanks Scott! I do wonder if I have been glutened recently. I did eat out just prior to that test....and they have now upped my synthroid dosage...

I am pooped. I have had celiac since 2005 and have been okay. I am hypothyroid and my tsh level crept up from 2 to 3.5. Other bloodwork was fine but creatinine was slightly elevated to 1.05...1 being end of range. Doc said it could just be dehydration but always likes to recheck. Now I am a nervous wreck. Anyone have words of wisdom?

I recently switched to Maxwell House Coffee after learning from our support group that Folgers says there may be "trace amounts" of gluten in their coffee. Do any of you drink Maxwell House (called Kraft and they seem very knowledgeable about gluten). Just checking...thanks a million. Amanda

Encopresis And Celiac
AmandaD replied to Willow5's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
I was so young I barely remember, except that I wouldn't go to the bathroom for days and days. Then the doc started having me do mineral oil and orange juice drinks and eventually it wasn't so bad...but I had some issues basically until I turned 30 which is when my GI did the bloodwork and found out I had celiac. -
Encopresis And Celiac
AmandaD replied to Willow5's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
I don't know if this relates but when I was about 8 I had encoperesis and constipation issues throughout all of childhood. I was diagnosed by my doc with Celiac last year. (They wondered if all those years of constipation were really undiagnosed celiac)... -
What Type Of Doctor Do You See Regarding Your celiac disease?
AmandaD replied to glutenexpat's topic in Doctors
After I was diagnosed in September I had a 6 month followup where they took my vitamin D level, did a dexa bone scan, and did another TTG to see how I was responding to the diet. I am now supposed to see my G.I. doctor once a year for the rest of my life - where they will run the TTG and vitamin levels and blood counts to make sure I'm avoiding osteoporosis...
