Hey guys,
So yesterday I was able to go to the U of M in Minneapolis Minnesota at the GI clinic.
I spoke with my doctor there about my prior tests and my symptoms etc.
She informed me that it is very likely that I have Celiacs but would like me to have another
blood test done to make sure.
Before leaving the clinic I stopped at the lab and gave them my blood for the testing.
Not expecting it to come back until Wednesday like they said, I got a call on my phone later today.
It was the doctor's nurse mentioning that she scheduled an endoscopy for me NEXT TUESDAY.
Now completely confused as to why she made the procedure so soon, I looked to see if my test result came back in my e-mail and sure enough it was there.
When I opened up my jaw almost fell to the ground.
It read something like: " Results are higher then the past test POSITIVE"
My numbers more then doubled since the first time and this caused my doctor to act fast and expedite my procedure.
So, with this said, I will be having an endoscopy a week from today.
I have to admit guys, I am a bit nervous and really, really wish my husband was able to attend with me as he is best at calming me. However, I know that God will be with me the whole way and I am eager to know for sure 100% that I do indeed have Celiacs, so I can live a happy and healthy life.
If you've ever had an endoscopy and would like to share some helpful tips or encouragement,
I would very much appreciate it, please just leave a comment below.
Until I write again,
