A Little Encouragement From The Doctor Education Debate

I would like to present a gift to all the celiacs past.present and future! The latest edition of Cortlandt Forum has a wonderful eye opening article on celiac disease aimed at PRIMARY CARE DOCTORS !! It is on the front page, and is accessible to all. Just go on www.cortlandtforum.com and scroll down to the article. It is the Jan-Feb '09 edition. This is a free medical journal mailed to thousands of docs.

I have not been able to create a link, so maybe some kind member will do this.

I am very encouraged to read the medical literature specifically targeting the front line doctors in a good way.

GREAT ARTICLE! Thanks for sharing! I'm also liking how it encourages doctors to look for the other symptoms than just malabsorption!

      I'm pretty sure that in stores, you can find plenty of gluten-free options. But they are usually a bit more expensive.

      Hello @BunnyBrown and welcome to the forum. I cannot say that I have had the procedure you describe, but recently I did have general surgery and was routinely intubated.  That pain was what troubled me most after the operation, far more than the operation site.  It took a few days to really settle down, I was quite badly bruised. It was taking so long I was a bit concerned so asked the question on another forum. A few patients came back to me and said they had suffered the same.  I imagine in my own case possibly the throat got bashed about a bit,  maybe they had difficult inserting the tube?  I've suffered with a painful throat post-endoscopy too, but never as long as the intubation pain.   I hope you will be feeling better very soon.   PS BTW - love the name!  I saw this today in an Easter display in a shop and your name reminded me of it.🙂

      This wonderful, Anne. I think you have a point about why people disappear off forums.  I found the first few years post diagnosis a real struggle and frankly wondered if I would ever feel better (not to dishearten people, but just to say it can take a while longer for some folk to heal).  However, once my antibodies were back within normal range it really has made a big difference to my health.  I've chosen to stick around because I'm a Mod, otherwise I might have been one of those that disappeared, too!
