edit: nvm. Just diagnosed!
Edit. What I posted yesterday was more of a vent than an actual introductory post... And perhaps TMI.
I'll summarize the previous post to I've had digestive issues my whole life and was frustrated with lack of diagnosis, but as of a phone call I received soon after I posted this yesterday, I have a diagnosis! So crazy. Maybe joining gave me good karma...?
Officially diagnosed with Celiac Disease. As it turns out I'm selectively IgA deficient and the previous blood results were thus false negatives. So complex... Glad I was reviewed by more than one doctor, and that a thorough analysis of my bloodwork was ordered with the second one or this may not have been caught.
I don't have Crohn's, but I hope you guys will welcome a Celiac on the board anyway. And best of luck to all of you with your diagnoses and treatments, especially those not diagnosed yet. Not knowing what's wrong is the worst..
