Coeliac diagnosis confirmed
Saw the consultant today who confirmed I do have Coeliac. He couldn't tell me how damaged my villi were however. Just thought I'd share my journey with you all. I first went to the Dr about this with neurological issues at the end of this summer. Thankfully she ran a coeliac screen amongst other tests

Endoscopy
Hi all, Who here has had an endoscopy? No previous treatment has worked (even a small amount) and over the years my IBS has really gotten so much worse. I’ve finally been referred to have an endoscopy which I’m really relieved about but not sure what to expect and what they could be looking for? Any

How do you give yourself security?
Mine is a bit of a saga. Had IBS for a very long time, off and on. The worst period of flare up (until recently) was one in 2012 just after my dad died. That wasn't severe compared to many of you, but it was bad enough to make me lose my confidence in going out once I had been caught on a bus. I

Monitoring Cirrhosis
Hi, I am sure I have read the answer to this previously, possibly from Katie but what are the guidelines for ongoing monitoring of cirrhosis in terms of frequency of US, Endoscopy and LFTs ? Every six months springs to mind but more frequent if poor MELD score and annually if low score ? Thanks is advance

Feeling really ill gastritis no energy
I have been suffering from gastritis for years, and I’m petrified to have endoscopy so I’ve been trying to deal with this through diet only, I have got omperazole tabs, but after reading online that they can cause dementia I stopped taking them, whether this is true I don’t know, but it’s freaked me

New & Confused: Any tests to help decide on Lap?
Hi all, Not quite sure how to begin. Have been reading like crazy across forums and also on pubmed, but info/studies are frequently contradictory, controversial and/or limited. I am so confused. I am going to insert my history here, but please feel free to skip ahead to the question. I am not sure how

2020 - A Calendar Thing? OR a Clear Vision on MY Heart Failure?
First off, a Happy New Year to all - suffering or not. Tomorrow (yes, really, the 2nd January) I am off to the new Papworth Hospital to undertake my Heart MRI. Last Friday, I undertook an Endoscopy to see if I am good to undergo and Enderscopic Ultrasound on mu Aortic Valve - and that gave positive results

Slight very brief pinching feeling in throat at right side, I think (not sure) just below Adam's apple - otherwise no symptoms
Anxiety has caused all sorts of problems - severe
gastrointestinal
in the past. Had stomach
endoscopy
in February, had CT thorax in April and had throat inspection six weeks ago - all OK, but this new slight pinching sensation is getting me worried about my throat and/or esophagus.

Forced to take a break from running even though I'm not technically 'injured...' and I'm not even halfway through my half marathon training!
So as some of you have seen on my previous posts from the last few weeks, I had to go to hospital on 8th December because I suddenly came down with severe abdominal pain. I spent the next two weeks not running at all and just resting because I didn't want to risk my stomach getting aggravated even more

I recently had an Endoscopy. Results were small intestine is fine. I am gluten free due to pain and it has helped ease the pain.
How is it possible that gluten free diet would help if there is no problem with celiac? Can anything help an atrophic stomach lining? Doesn't the lining replace itself every few days?

How long is too long to wait for treatment to start
My brother had his first endoscopy 5 weeks ago because he had a blockage in his gullet and couldn’t swallow food or fluids. He had lost 2 stone in weight. Endoscopy identified ‘suspicious mass’. 3 weeks in hospital for investigations confirmed T3 N2 M0 diagnosis at junction of stomach and oesophagus.
