Littlebit's Blog

Hi fellow celiacs, Yesterday I read several blogs that just broke my heart. I replied with the knowledge I have learned through the years as being a celiac. I believe knowledge is powerful, but more important knowledge about your health is powerful. When you visit a doctor , take a friend that loves you. Begin a journal and take that with you.Be strong even though you feel bad. I have found out the more you educate yourself, the more respect a doctor will give you. The most important person is you! Not the doctor! If I do not like a doctor , I will not return. I am lucky, I have an excellent primary care physician who cares about my health. That is where I started many years ago. The first time I saw him, he put me in the hospital for dehydration, and chronic diarrhea. I stayed for two weeks. I drank liquids and ate jello. I was also hooked up to machines for feeding as well as monitoring. I knew I had found the best primary care doctor for me. I am having a good day . So for any of you that are hurting and depressed, there is light at the end of the tunnel!Godspeed, Littlebit
