MICROSCOPIC COLITIS SUPPORT

Hey all, Well I received a phone call from the nurse at my GI's office yesterday because I had called asking for the results of my biopsy. Apparently, my tests were negative for MC. She called it "great news" .... yes, it's great not to have something, but on the other hand, I am still sic...

Hey all, I was wondering if any of you have had good experiences with Dr.'s in the mid-atlantic region (I live in Va Beach, parents live in Harrisburg, family in Richmond and DC). I am awaiting results from my colonoscopy/biopsy and as soon as I get them, I am dropping my quack of a GI (as well as m...

Hey crew--- Well, I finally took the plunge and ordered my Enterolab tests today!!! I was super sick as soon as I woke up, and then again at work, and then again at work, and finally had to go home. Cried all morning. D, stomach cramping, nausea, and weakness. I was really slender on account of the ...

Christine-
Whey is safe for gluten sensitive/Celiacs. And good luck on "practicing" --- I've heard practice makes perfect if ya know what I mean

Strawberries have always been my favorite since I was a little girl. One of my fondest memories with my family was going to pick them on a hot summer day! Now my mouth is watering!

I am also new to this and probably don't know my list yet :) Heck, I don't even know what I have other than CD!

But, so far, gluten is my #1 enemy. :) Waiting to get the test from enterolab for other potential enemies!

So, this should come as no surprise to any of you who have been to h$ll and back with the medical community.... I had my colonoscopy on Friday. Came out of it, Dr. was talking to husband. Said that if tests come back negative, they will need to re-evaluate whether I "really" have Celiac or...

Ok, y'all are just the sweetest. I luckily have that fleet stuff to take---lucky that it is the "better" of the two. I think its funny that I will still be taking bentyl (to help stop the D) and then this fleet stuff (to encourage the D). Anyone find the irony in this? I will definitely ad...

part 2 of my response: Luce: Thanks for your detailed response! Gave me a lot to think about. In terms of your question about my eating habits, I would say I am kinda in the middle---some things are processed, some are more natural. By default, a lot of the gluten free stuff is also organic so I do ...

Wow, thank you for all of your thoughful and kind words! It is nice to have some insight as to what people have gone through and have to deal with. Mars---I am happy to know that y'all don't get grossed out :smile: As a Celiac, I have no shame left!!! Thanks for the warm welcome. Jean--Yes, I am sor...

Hi there! I would like to introduce myself to the board! This seems like a great place---CanadianKaren suggested I check it out. My name is Laura and I am a 25 year old female hoping for some bits of advice from all of you wonderful people. I am a Celiac (dx at age 23) that recently began having tro...
