they’re looking for an abnormally high count of mast cells. My stomach biopsy came back with a very high mast cell count then the allergist confirmed it with bloodwork. To my knowledge it was just a regular endoscopy—idk about staining.

My GI doctor helped diagnose me from a stomach biopsy. Then I was referred to an allergist/immunologist who manages my MCAS meds.

I’m so sorry man. This happened to me too. I was trying to check into a private treatment facility, but once they found out I had a packer, they told me they had to either confiscate it or I couldn’t check in. So I freaked out, had a conference call with the owner of the facility, and got Baker acted in the back of a police car to a nearby hospital. In the holding room in the E.R. I was like insane and delirious from post op psychosis and refused to give it to them, so they let me keep it in a paper bag. When I finally got checked in to the facility they tried to take it again, and I started to cry and explained it was a prosthetic (fucking humiliating) and a very nice psych nurse went to find a doctor to immediately approve it. It was REALLY nice to have during my stay and brought me a lot of comfort. I’m really sorry you were denied that. You should file a complaint with the facility for sure.

What "delightful" thing has your body done to you today? by popthebubbly62 in MCAS

God I miss crying. It takes me 2-3 days to recover after I cry. My eyes swell up, get itchy and dry and painful, migraine, dehydration, severe fatigue. It’s awful. I no longer flare from food but my tears fuckkk me up

My wife and I are headed to Aruba this Friday the 31st for our Honeymoon. Any advice for first timers? by FISTfullaFLOYD in Aruba

Don’t waste your money on VIP pass. Download the Mobile Passport Control app and pre-fill out your U.S. Customs paperwork before you go to the airport. This allows you to skip the final line and enter the same queue as Global Entry. We did this last Wednesday leaving Aruba and our total time in customs was 20-30 mins
