[QUOTE="Robinredbreast, post: 929241, member: 44643"] When I was became ill, March/April time,( 3 years ago) I kept going to my doctor, told him of my systems, had blood tests and I kept googling. Then I noticed Coeliac kept coming up, I went back to him and suggested Coeliac, that got the ball rolling( and my GP did actually feel my tummy area and when he pressed in one area the pain was incredible) but I had to have 2 endoscopies, because they forgot to do the biopsy the first time around. After that, a diabetes hospital appointment with Mr T resulted in him telling me from the screen he was viewing, that he noticed I had been tested for Coeliac and he told me my results had come back negative and I didn't have it. WRONG, the test comes back in two parts and he didn't have the 2nd part. On November 1st of that year, I went to my GP and the first thing he said to me was " Ahhh hello ****, are you feeling much better now you have been diagnosed", no..................... because I didn't know, no one had told me and I found out later they knew from the blood tests that I had Coeliac and that was in June:wideyed:, 5 months before I was actually told. It was unbelievable, especially when I was so ill with it and feeling so bad with many symptoms. ps the 2nd endoscopy was on October 18. So not a pleasant experience for months tbh. [/QUOTE]
