i can tell this is gonna be a loooong night. 30 minutes after my nice bowl of gluten free soup and im holding my stomach wishing i could just puke on purpose to avoid the fun I know is coming. 2 hours later at 8 pepto bismols later im busy running back and forth to the bathroom. Now im in bed with some soothing tea HOPING that i can stay in bed and just go to sleep so that when I wake up my belly will be all better. dont stomachs suck? It sucks even more when I know that everything I have eaten in the last 2 days has been 100% gluten free. I havnt cheated on gluten on purpose for months although im sure i have had a few crumbs accidently here and there. there is something going on besides celiac, but its too inconsistant to go back to GI im fine for awhile and then BOOM. it doesnt seem like such a big deal though, i have plenty of other docs to deal with.
im going to the rheumatolgist in a few weeks. also going to my thyroid checked again, they checked like a a year ago when my hair was falling out real bad. i think its fine, but I have been really wierd with temperatures i get like abnormally hot and sweaty, like soaked sweaty and i wake up gross and hot and sweaty in the middle of the night all the time....hair still falls out and then of course the always tired part-but thats not new :)
joints havnt been great but not unussually bad either, pretty standard i would say. my wrists are still cracking like crazy. good news is i just got testing accomodations and now i can use a computer for any essay exams! thats great lol except those dont really exist in science classses :)
hope everyone else is doing ok hope to hear from you all soon. im bored and my belly is keeping me uppp I know the feeling. My stomach has been giving me since last saturday. I've had xrays, ct scans, and every lab test they can think of including stool cultures and nothing. Leaning towards IBS as a diagnosis. I was told by a friend here that yeast overgrowth from high dose prednisone might be a possibility too. Celiac would suck as well. I know someone that has that and she has to drive to a specialty grocery store that's around 80 miles one way to shop!
