    ARCHIVED Professional Dilemma

    Yes, as a dietitian and also as a close family member with celiac disease (actually 4), I am aware of the problems and especially concerned with young people and teens. There support is needed...hope we can meet the challenge. Just an FYI..the patient was referred to counseling ...with the added assurance that the Dx. of celiac disease was part of the...

    ARCHIVED Professional Dilemma

    Not sure where to post this problem but I am sure there are doctors caving in to patients that refuse to go gluten-free. I am a dietitian working in a Critical Access Hospital ( that means we are a rural hospital with no more than 25 beds - our average patient count is around 8). There is a woman that has repeatedly been admitted with migraines, nausea...
  5. I will see if my sister still has an article written by a Mom of a Wisconsin student and how she handled the food service. My niece has celiac disease and Type I DM and just went away to college. Will post if I can get that from her again.
  6. Margaret and LaVern? Yes, we also go to church with them. October we are meeting for a potluck on Thurs. Oct 19th at 6:30. Whole foods like fruits and vegetables are a great addition. One fellow is assigned lplain potato chips. The hospital provides a meat and we usually have lots of food. Otherwise our meetings are the second Thursday of each...
  7. Our support group in Anamosa has about 20 people on the mailing list with 6 - 8 regulars. If interested please contact. Potluck, Thursday, Oct. 19 at 6:30 at Jones Regional Medical Center. Nov. - 2nd Thursday of the month at 1:00. We take off December and resume 2nd Thursday in Jan. at 1:00. The Annual All Iowa conference is next weekend at the Aegon...
  8. Thanks for all of the info - especially the % - etc. Glianid Anibodies (IGA) - 4.1 Reticuluin AB negative (no numbers) Tissue Transgultn 5.6 (range 0 - 30). Anyway, have to run off to church but I sure have appreciated everyone's advice and time. I am the founder of the support group at the hospital where I work so I am not far from celiac...
  9. There is a saying that life is too short for regrets and you certainly have helped me to look at that and start a new day. I would like to have the opportunity to share your story with a 50 year that I see as a patient about every 2 months. Here blood work indicates she has celiac disease, however, she is in some denial about it and says that "my doctor...
  10. Kraft - American. I haven't looked to see what is in them yet. We stake a few and then either cut or tear. You can sprinkle them with garlic or onion powder.
  11. Will search recipes but my weight mgt group came up with a "goldfish cracker" using just processed chesse. Put them on an oiled sheet and they puff and crisp. I made some of the pieces to look like animals...teddy bears mostly. This was to have the protein without the carbs...works for me.
  12. Thanks, even though there are lots of people out there, sometimes you feel pretty lonely. Marilyn
  13. So, this might be latent Lyme disease?
  14. My mother's twin sister was dx. 45 years ago at Mayo, so, I grew up knowing about celiac disease. She had the weight loss and GI problems. The Mayo clinic wanted my mom to come for "tests". She was in Ohio with 4 children and they were not going to reimburse for travel,etc. So, it did not happen. I have a niece (dx at 15, dx with Diabetes at 9). Most...
  15. ...or did it come from my computer. Anyone else have this happen? How inappropriate, especially on a weight management message board. Hi, I am new to this board but not to the celiac site. Until this week I visited because of my profession as a dietitian at a Critical Access Hospital (we have 25 beds in a rural area) and my interest because of family...
