Hi everyone,
I requested a coeliac screening from my diabetic team and the results came back negative. I still feel something isn't right but when asked for further advice it was brushed off and assured that I am not suffering from this.
Instead of exploring other conditions, I was told to contact my GP with my problems.
Has anyone had any experience with how to manage this?
I feel like my problems are ignored, if it doesn't end in the one specific diagnosis I have to start the whole process of trying to find what the problem is again. Almost as if I'm not a person who will continue to have these problems.
I have had Type 1 diabetes for 20 years, diagnosed with IBS. Suffer from joint clicking and aches and have what seems to be a bloated lower stomach, amongst other symptoms which are commonly associated with the coeliac.
Apologies for the long message, any advice or support would be greatly appreciated - I am struggling at the moment
