If it is celiac, embrace this news as something that is manageable and not something worse like things i don't even want to mention.

Yeah I can manage a diet and I'd gladly give up some thing in order to get back to a regular digestive routine. I enjoyed my two days of eating whatever I wanted and a couple 6 packs of beer, but I'm definitely paying for it today. The lab has my good "stuff" and some blood this morning, so hopefully I'll get some results by the middle of the week.
Can't wait to feel normal again. |

Jury is in, looks like I've tested positive and C.Diff is the culprit. I read the likely causes and oddly I've not been on any long term or even short term antibiotics. Not happy to hear my GI say it can be a bitch to treat and sometimes it can take a long time to get rid of it. The flagyl my primary put me on is usually what the insurance people want you to start on but I had a "Sh*t" reaction to that after three days, so he is pushing for the more expensive stuff. Then hearing what another alternate treatment was (stool transplant) made me think, who do I know that is so full of Sh*t; they can spare some for a transplant. I'm just happy to have a diagnosis and starting point so I can get on something that might work.

cannabis is now the preferable drug as opiates are synonymous
