Hi Tiki, I live at the Jersey Shore and I go to Shore Gastro in Oakhurst. She was good at diagnosing it. But I am still having trouble. Feel nauseous ALL the time. I had more blood and ultrasound done by them and that was normal. So she put me on prilosec, which I have since stopped. I am to go back in Novemeber about the nausea. I am actually trying to get an appointment with the celiac desease center at Columbia Univers in NYC, but they havent returned my call.

I have the best doctor in Princeton NJ if you are willing to travel there. Private message me if you would like me to tell you about her more.

Basically she diagnosed me at my first visit, and is always ready and willing to deal with every symptom I have. She speaks about the disease at conferences, researches it and is knowlegable on all of the new research. Let me know!

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.
