ARCHIVED My Story... If It Helps Anyone
Robina replied to Robina's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms

ARCHIVED Ummm...anyone Go From The Big "d" To The Big "c"?

Traditional doctors are trained to medicate symptoms... not to actually find and treat the root cause... and since celiac's is a disease treated with dietary and usage restrictions... it is out of western medicine's league IMHO...
