I, too, am stuck in the mourning part but maybe not anger at the Celiac part but my families response to having Celiac. I was never prepared to handle giving up bread (which I adore) for the rest of my life and not talk about it. I do talk about it all the time, how unfair it is, how it took forever to be diagnosed, how I had to fight to get the diagnosis...

Yes, that is exactly what I have decided to do, go off nexium and see if the pain in my leg muscles gets better. The doctor I was seeing (who is an internal medicine doctor) decided to give my 40 mg a day, up from 20 but for no good reason that I could see. I tried to tell her that I have problems with all medications and always have and that is when she...

Hi Everyone, Thank you for all your replies and making me realize I am definitely not alone with this muscle pain! I have been on a gluten free diet since May and the pain is getting worse the longer I am OFF gluten but I am not sure why. I have an appointment with rhematologist on Tuesday but I really don't think she will find anything else - or maybe...

Hello, I am a newly diagnosed celiac. I have just come from yet another doctor who is now saying that I am a hypochondriac. I have pain in the muscles of my legs in two places.

Hi, I think it it great, too that the word is getting out. I am newly diagnosed and also live in the OC. Just in case you are looking for a good restaurant, The Rib Company in Ladera Ranch has a gluten free menu - really good bbq! A friend found it for me! I feel we all need to get the word out everyday telling anyone who will listen about this disease...

I had gone to UCI but saw a different doctor but heard from the nurse practiioner there that Dr. Albers is the best but he is hard to get in to see. I have since gone on to a GI doctor at Mission Hospital for celiac but have not found a good doctor for celiac. I, too, just turned 50 in May after getting diagnosed for celiac in same month. I hope this helps...

I need help with finding a doctor in Southern CA area for celiac, I am recently diagnosed for Celiac. I just saw a new GI doctor today but he is no help. He said he would see me in a year. My last one said that I could eat spelt which I can't. She admitted that she did not see many patients with celiac. The first GI doctor that I originally saw before...
