Costant left leg pain. Bilateraly swollen lynph nodes. are these associated? Could it be a result of my ciliacs disease?

I went today thinking I was getting the biopsy but during the ultrasound, the teck exscused herself to talk with the doctor. when she got back she informed me that they found somethng but they dont know what it is. To call the surgeon tommorow to find out where he wants to go from here. Im used to no news but now I am stewing over what she said. I thank you so much for being such a caring person. Their should be more awsome people out their. And also thank you for giving me the link to the other forum. I am going to check that out. Im am very thankful to have found this sit and have the opportunity to connect with others who can understand what its like to be in pain and to be sick. Again thank you bunches....
Good luck to you aswell with everything.

Hi again Briamysunshine,

I JUST noticed that YOU are a fellow Arizonian ALSO!!  I live in Antherm.  :)

I think that there is ANOTHER Forum here on MedHelp might help you even more than this one.  Of course, you are always welcome here, BUT there is a Celiac {Sprue} Disease Forum also.  The members here are NOT that familiar with Celiac Disease.  I just HAPPENED to have the Disease, but mine is NOT very far along yet, which I'm VERY grateful for.  What I told you is the FULL extent of MY knowledge of the Disease.  

I have a feeling that you will need to be talking with people that are MUCH more knowledgeable about Celiac than I am.

Here is the Link to the Celiac {Sprue} Disease Forum:

http://www.medhelp.org/forums/Celiac-Sprue-Disease/show/226

PLEASE remember that you are ALWAYS welcome here also BUT I want you to be able to access EVERYTHING that you POSSIBLY can as I'm afraid that your Disease is POSSIBLY much more advanced than mine is.

I HOPE that you will let me know what you find out about your Biopsy!!!  I'm VERY concerned about you and EVERYONE that knows me on here, KNOWS that I WORRY about ALL of the Members on MH.  :)

I WILL be looking for your update on here and ALSO look forward to seeing you continue to post on HERE ALSO..............Sherry

Thank you so much. I do plan to continue working with my doctor. I am having a biopsy done this wednesday of my lymph node. Ciliacs was already hard to adjust with changing every food I ate; as Im sure you remember its a hard transition. I definantly would like to know if it is all related. I honestly hope it is so I can manage it and not have to adjust to another diognosis. I think the hardes part has been not having people that understand what its like to live in pain. Im very glad to have found this site and thank you for being so welcoming.

Hi briamysunshine,

First I want to welcome you to the Pain Management Forum and let you know that we are glad you found this Forum. I want to let you know that there are NO Doctors on this Forum only CP - Chronic Pain - Patients that help each other with our OWN expertise and experiences that we have developed through our OWN CP Issues.

I'm sorry that you are having this pain with your leg AND with your lymph nodes.  How long has this been going on?  

I have Celiac Disease, also.  I was diagnosed with it 2 years ago.  I ALSO have Osteoarthritis and was diagnosed with it over 37 years ago.  It's one of the MANY things that CAN go hand in hand with Celiac Disease.  

It's VERY possible that all of the things that you mention could POSSIBLY have some sort of connection to your Celiac Disease.  

I ENCOURAGE you to ask your Doctor about the possibility that these are related.  I KNOW that it can affect the autoimmune system.  I HOPE that you will delve further into this with you Doctor and let us know what you find out from him/her.  

We will be looking for your updates.  :)

Wishing you the VERY best!!!............Sherry
