<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> This is my first post, so please bear with me. I have been reading the posts now for several weeks, with much interest. I have had a blood test positive for celiac and I am on the diet now for the last 2 months. I have undergone 2 scheduled biopsy's for celiac. The first one my doctor found Barrett's Esophagus. He took so many biopsy's of the esophagus that he could not take any more for the celiac. but he told me to go on the diet. On May 2nd, I did another follow up biopsy for the Barrett's and celiac. however, my doctor forgot to do the biopsy for the celiac! He is very sorry for the mistake. But my question is this: Now what do I need to do? He wants to do another endoscopic biopsy in another year. I need the paperwork on celiac now. I am recovering from cancer and various other health conditions and do not work much and have no health insurance. I am trying to get services for basic living (food, rent help) as well as other. The nurse is pushing me to do the esophageal surgery now because it is cheaper in the long run, and I do not have the money for treatment to keep myself in the life long Barrett's stage. (I have a higher risk then others for this to go into esophageal cancer) The diet is working and I have no desire to go off. Any help, suggestions, or comments would be greatly appreciated. I will summarize responses. I have another question, but will wait for now on that. Thanks, Mary Rosser/ Central Texas
