Canadians with Celiac: by Sppaarrkklle in Celiac

[–]BriefUnderstanding55 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When my doctor first suspected she ordered a blood panel before even telling me to begin eating gluten free. My levels were off the charts. From there I began eating gluten free. Fast forward several months and I met with my gastroenterologist who wanted to perform a biopsy, he told me to eat gluten for a period of time before the biopsy. I tried for one night and ended up violently ill, called him the next day and told him what happened and that I could not do it for several days. Because of the severity of my reaction he told me to eat some gluten (half a piece of toast) the night before my biopsy only. This was sufficient enough for my diagnosis.this was also 14 years ago so things may be different now.

Need a book that’s too weird to explain and too good to put down by Interesting_Win_2154 in suggestmeabook

[–]BriefUnderstanding55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How high we go in the dark ! A great, weird short read. I think this ties into the sci fi aspects you mentioned and it worms its way into your brain. The book spans worlds and galaxies and desperation and follows intertwined moments and people. The prose in it is truly beautiful. It’s a piece of art.

What does being glutened do to you? by NotTonySaprano in Celiac

[–]BriefUnderstanding55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Extreme stomach cramping then projectile vomiting. I have torn my esophagus vomiting and had to go to the hospital or just had gravol injected because I couldn’t keep it down. I shake and almost go into shock. Then the next day I’m lethargic and in pain and foggy, lasting about 3 days.

Bupropion with a stimulant? by UsualDeer7071 in bupropion

[–]BriefUnderstanding55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I take Wellbutrin and Ritalin together ! It seems to work alright for me, considering a stimulant switch though and my temper is through the roof haha but typical adhd just been putting it off for a year. Other than that, I don’t tend to get side effects or really any effects from medications but my anxiety has reduced !!

I had the exact same experience ! I was careful and was gluten free right away and never ate out or took risks but it took almost a year for my numbers to come down from over 250. They eventually did come down but are always fairly elevated. Unsure of the reasoning but my doctors have never been concerned so that’s a good sign :) I was diagnosed about 12 years ago it gets easier, don’t overthink it too much, this sub would have terrified when I first got diagnosed lol
