Dietician Referrals?

I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease about a month ago. I've been very diligent about going gluten-free but I'm still sick. I think a dietician might help -- but I have heard I need one well-versed in Celiac disease. Does anyone out there have a reference for the Northern Virginia area? thanks....

I do not live in your area, but definately recommend finding one that is well trained for Celiac's. I WASTED $200 to see a dietician that told me to stay away from gluten for 6 months and then I could try and add it back in after that if I could tolerate it.....UMMMM NO! Also she didn't tell me anything that I didn't already know from reading on here so it was definately a waste of my time and money.

Hopefully you will have better luck with one than I did!

      Interesting, when I suffered for a few months with ectopics I noticed that carbohydrates would cause indigestion and bloating in my stomach, then that would lead to my heart skipping beats, and I could feel it in my throat, it was very unsettling.  My last serious bout of this was after eating a Muller Rice Pudding for breakfast.   I happened to be wearing a 48 hour halter at the time and cardiology picked it up, but they weren't worried about what they saw. There was some British doctor who'd made some videos on the Vagus nerve that I remember watching at the time which made sense of what I was experiencing, there did seem to be some sort of connection.

      I asked my cardiologist about stopping vitamins.  He said his tests account for all detectable vitamins from sources other than food.  I only need to stop them for a couple of days.  He has me keep records of meds and vitamins I've ingested over the past 10 days and prior and he does his calculations.

      Reply to treats I try and eat to bring up the glucose. Sometime I get up 3 times a night and eat something. I don't think food is the issue. A lot of the food they say should help doesn't.  Many mornings my level is 59 and I feel sick, sometimes for hours. It has been recommended I go to an Endocrinologist.
