    Thanks, that was just the info I was looking for. Is the IC network a forum?

    ARCHIVED Recommend A Doctor In You State

    mumseyh replied to a topic in Doctors

    My sister needs a doctor in the Detroit area who accepts HAP insurance. She has not been diagnosed yet, but has many symptoms like mine. She would prefer someone out of St. Mary's or Henry Ford Hospital. Any suggestions? I have not lived there in many years so I am not familiar with anyone. Thanks

    Have you tried the new Sendik's grocery store in Franklin? I'm not sure if they have that item, but they have a nice gluten free selection. Also, have you tried Molly's gluten free bakery in Delefield? It is wonderful!

    Welcome, I live in Greenfield. I went gluten free last August. If you want to exchange some ideas for shopping or eating out, let me know. Good luck. Nancy

    I live in Milwaukee, and everyone here calls clear lemon lime pop (7 up/sprite) "white soda". I guess it is a regional thing. What can you say about a place that calls a drinking fountain a "bubbler"?

    Cocoa Pebbles are my favorite! There are several different companies who make brown rice krispies. The one I have now is Erewhon. So far all of the ones I have tried have been acceptable. The Enjoy Life granola was unedible, in my opinion. I am still looking for a good granola. Health Valley makes a cereal that look like rice chex. It is very good. I have...

    I have had the taco salad and have had no problems. It was very good.

    ARCHIVED Great Article

    Thanks, printed it and added it to my binder!

    If you like good chinese, LeBistro Shanghai on Hwy 100 in Hales Corners is wonderful. It is small and family owned. I went in with my Triumph dining cards and the waitress took it back to the kitchen. She then returned and pointed out several options on the menu. then she said they could make many more dishes with the fish sauce or the white sauce. I had...

    ARCHIVED Celiac Sprue & Doctor Too!

    mumseyh replied to RKB-MD's topic in Doctors

    Today I had a follow up appointment with my G.I. doc. It turned out differently than I expected. The first thing he noticed is that I have lost 35 pounds since the last visit in July (in my case, it is a good thing). When I mentioned the spectrum analysis, he backpedaled on his previous comments about either having celiac, or not having it. He agreed that...

    I adapted this from an award winning old family recipe, and they turned out great! Gluten-Free Sugar Cookies 1 cup shortening plus 2T butter 1/2 cup powdered sugar 1/2 cup granulated sugar (mix the above ingredients until creamy) Add: 1 egg plus one egg white 1 t vanilla approx 1/2 t salt 1/2 t cream of tartar 1 t baking soda 2 t xanthum...

    ARCHIVED Celiac Sprue & Doctor Too!

    mumseyh replied to RKB-MD's topic in Doctors

    Very well stated Ann! My family doctor also mentioned the spectrum analogy. This is what I will present to my GI doc on the 19th. I am already anticipating him being defensive. After the biopsy, he told me I don't have celiac disease, and going gluten-free would be very difficult. Six months later, a positive response from the diet is all the evidence I need...

    ARCHIVED Celiac Sprue & Doctor Too!

    mumseyh replied to RKB-MD's topic in Doctors

    GFMemphis (Ann): You mentioned an artice in an upcoming G. I. Journal. I did a google search on these, and came up with several different publications. Do you have the name of the journal? I realize I am not a doctor, and it may be a stretch to read, but I am a teacher, former paramedic and current nursing student (at age 51). I can usually get a feel for...

    Molly's bakery is amazing. I make a sandwich every day on their white bread. It is good as any homemade bread out there. I could not go back to buying the commercial ones. The muffins and cupcakes are great, too. They don't even taste like something from a special diet. I give it 5 stars!!!

    ARCHIVED Celiac Sprue & Doctor Too!

    mumseyh replied to RKB-MD's topic in Doctors

    Thanks gluten-free. I wish there were more doctors like you and my primary doctor. Staying up on the latest articles is very important. I am going to see if there is any way I can track down this article. I agree that it is time to overhaul the methods that are used to read the biopsies. Based on the diet alone, there is no doubt that my situation has improved...

    Tee0007: At Pedros I did explain it to the waiter, and he relayed the info well. I have been there 3 times, and have had no problems. I have also been to Carabbas instead of Olive Garden. The waiter was very familiar with my requests and that was also a great experience. I will call Whole Foods and put in a plug for a west side location. They are building...

    ARCHIVED Celiac Sprue & Doctor Too!

    mumseyh replied to RKB-MD's topic in Doctors

    For GFMemphis: Do you also believe you can be gluten intolerant with a negative biopsy and positive blood work? My GI doc doesn't believe this is possible. My primary doc is the one who discovered this with me, after discovering it with himself. I have most of the same syptoms including anemia. The GI doc did the biopsy and proclaimed that I don't have celiac...

    The elbow macaroni was excellent, too.

    Happy to hear you are doing better, too. I used to have constant pain, and it ended within a few days. It has been 3 months and I would never turn back. Keep up the good work. Nancy

    Hi, I'm also from Allen Park, but I have lived in Wisconsin for 20 years. I am also new to gluten-free since last summer. Good luck, and hope you find good places to shop. This is a good place to start. Several people have mentioned places in Ann Arbor. I will want to check them out next time I visit. Nancy

    Thank you for addressing this subject. I take Miralax and wondered if it was gluten free as well. My primary doc diagnosed me, but GI doc insists it is just IBS. I have not seen GI doc in a while, and it was on my list of questions for him.

    I am also new to the gluten-free life, and I live in Greenfield. There is a Whole Foods next door to St. Mary's Hospital on North Avenue. I haven't been there yet, but the website shows a good selection of gluten free products. My doctor recommended P.F. Changs at Mayfair Mall. They have a gluten free menu. I haven't been there yet, but plan to go. I have...

    My two best discoveries in the Milwaukee area have been Molly's Gluten free bakery in Pewaukee (the bread is as good as any regular bread I have ever had, and the cupcakes tasted exactly like regular ones), and Good Harvest in Waukesha. Gluten free Trading Company is also good. I feel lucky to live near these great places. If you haven't tried them yet, they...

    Some of the Milwaukee area Starbucks are carrying a chocolate peanut butter whoopie pie. I asked a manager about it, and she knew nothing about the product. She referred me to their website nutritional information page. All it listed was the standard calories, fat grams, etc. It was over 400 calories, by the way. Even if it were gluten free, it is a pretty...

    My real name is Nancy, but my daughter calls me mumsey. She loves British literature, and likes they way they refer to mother as "mum". Now that she is away at college, and look forward to her sweet little voice on the phone saying "hi mumsey".
