    About running blood work and other test I was told I don't know how true it is but it makes a lot of sence, that Dr. get rewards and kick backs if they hold the cost down and not run so many test. A lot of times they just wan't to run the cheaper test on you are may be not any unless you demand it . It is not aways in the best interest of the patient. '

    I hve never heard of a tax releif in the U.S. unless you spend a lot of extra money on gluted free food . The gov is not going to give you any thing you just may get a few dollors back on the hundreds you have spent . You have to spend the money first , pennies on the hundreds that's the way the tax system works we work for the gov.

    You know your body better than any Dr. most of them only knows there prescripton pad and uses it a lot more than they should but that's where they get all there kickbacks ,and nice trips.

    When your Heart Dr say's it not a big deal it just causes a little more diareah than usual I started to give a lesson on Celiac but he did't have time so I never went back to him. I thought he might think a heart that wasnt beating right would't be any thing to worry about.
