When you order tuna salad keep in mind that it could have been prepared with bread crumbs in it. I learned about this from the daughter of a restaurant owner who clued me in on it over 10 years ago when I used to do Atkins diet. From that time on I would read ingredients on pre-packaged tuna salad like at Quik Check and lo and behold they too added bread crumbs to stretch out the salad. Pretty sneaky I say.

Husband has Celiac Disease and

Husband misdiagnosed for 27 yrs -

The misdiagnosis was: IBS or colitis

Mis-diagnosed from 1977 to 2003 by various gastros including one of the largest,

most prestigious medical groups in northern NJ which constantly advertises themselves as

being the "best." This GI told him it was "all in his head."

Serious Depressive state ensued

Finally Diagnosed with celiac disease in 2003

Other food sensitivities: almost all fruits, vegetables, spices, eggs, nuts, yeast, fried foods, roughage, soy.

Needs to gain back at least 25 lbs. of the 40 lbs pounds he lost - lost a great amout of body fat and muscle

Developed neuropathy in 2005

Now has lymphadema 2006It is my opinion that his subsequent disorders could have been avoided had he been diagnosed sooner by any of the dozen or so doctors he saw between 1977 to 2003

Thanks for the tip. I glad I haven't ordered tuna salad anywhere.
