Just wanted you to know that Ive just finished reading all three issues of the Scott Free
newsletter. It is excellent! It is very professional; interesting articles. The
newsletter seems to have started at a good time--I was just diagnosed with Celiac Disease
in October 2002, and have been emersing myself in information about it. Thank you and
keep up the good work!!

Thanks for the great website. I refer to it and recommend it all the time. Also I love your Scott Free newsletter. I have formed a local support group and used reference material from celiac.com all the time. You have helped many people.

Keep up the good work!

Subject: Thank you

This is just a simple comment saying thank you for this website. I just turned 19 and have had stomach problems for 11 years now. Ive been to doctors before telling me that they thought it was nothing and so forth, and then I came upon this website and did a little "testing" as far as what I ate and what the results were. Sure enough I self-diagnosed myself and went on a Gluten-Free Diet after making another doctors appointment. It took nearly 2 months to finally get to the Doctor, but by then I had already determined I knew what was wrong with my body and had told him my situation and what I believed to be the problem. I had blood work done and they determined that I had celiac disease. I just want to thank you because you have no idea how much this boosts my emotions and my
self-esteem, b/c i will finally be able to gain weight, and most importantly be able to live a Healthy life. Thank you so much

Scott,

Your website was my salvation when I was recently diagnosed with Celiac Disease. The doctor just told me to go on a gluten free diet and that was all the info I got. I ordered Shelly Longs book and the info I got from your site has given me the info I needed to start this whole new life style. Thank you for your website and the hard work (I know) you do to maintain and update it!

A Fan,

I dont usually send testimonials, but your newsletter is an excellent
source of up-to-date information about Celiac Disease. I highly recommend
it to anyone with celiac disease.

Thanks Scott, I want to tell you how much I appreciate your site. I am a mental health therapist and am accustomed to reading the original articles in journals. In several cases, I read the original article and your review later. I found your reviews to be on track in conveying the essential information in a vocabulary that is accessible to the layperson. Your site is my first stop when I need to do some research on a celiac topic. The Scott-Free newsletter appears to be maintaining that high standard already. Thank you for making being the mom of a kid with celiac a little less stressful.

I am 22 years old and I have been suffering with this disease for a number of years. My stomach would wake me up everyday with severe intestinal cramps and then I would commandeer the bathroom for about an hour (I am sure you know what I mean). Sometimes my intestines would wake me up in the middle of the night and I would be in the bathroom for hours. Just like you I have had a barrage of tests ranging from liver tests to being diagnosed with IBS. I did everything I could to restrict my diet (except eliminating gluten of course) but nothing seemed to help, until I began to eat less and less food because I was literally scared to eat. I gave up on doctors or ever possibly finding a cure. I began to rapidly lose weight, I scared my friends and family who automatically thought I was an anorexic (which is not the case fear of becoming fat and fear of food because it will make you ill are two different things). So anyway my mother found this page emailed it to me and I thought "I can give this diet a shot? Why not?", I am happy to report that I have not had the slightest bit of pain since starting this diet. I wake up in the morning and I could honestly cry because it is such a relief to not feel sick everyday with no apparent cause. I apologize for rambling but I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart because without you I might have died. So thank you again. You are a Godsend.

Feeling Healthy,

Trish

Dear Scott,
I must tell you that your site celiac.com saved my life. Its a long story, but I was just diagnosed with celiac at the age of 45 after a life time of stomach, bowel, joint and muscle problems. With the help of a nutritionist and your site, I was properly diagnosed and Im feeling better than I have ever felt in my life! Thank you for your continued hard work. We must continue to get the word out to friends, family and especially doctors, who seem to feel that celiac is not a major illness.
Take care and thanks a million.

Hi,
I just found your site. It is absolutely incredible. My 18 year old son is celiac and some(most) of the recipes are so fantastic I cant wait to make them. I am just as excited about them as he is. He is going off to university in Sept. and most of the recipes say they keep well. One less worry for me, to know he has food he can eat!
Thank you so very much for all the work you have put into your site. You are a God-send!

Scott, thanks SO much for your help. I dont know how much of a one-person effort your newsletter is, but kudos to you and those who might be helping you. My daughter was not physically well enough to work but was always looking for ways in which to help others. Her ideas were grand but her diseases (diabetes and glucogen storage disease) were too devastating and her life all too short. She would have been 28 on December 18. I applaud your efforts to pass along such vital information to those who are gluten intolerant.
Have a blessed holiday season!
