    You hold Ron Hoggan up to this forum like he is some sort of an authority figure about celiac disease and non celiac gluten sensitivity. He has no more education on the subject than you or I do. He is a retired special education teacher who is making money selling books he's probably not qualified to write. Besides, Ron didn't put his response here, you...

    It's my understanding that Ron Hoggan's doctorate is in education, not medicine.

    Apparently the celiac weekend they had in March was a success. It's only about 20 mimutes away from me. I've been there too many times to count. It's kind of fun the first couple of times you go. It's very expensive! I didn't realize they had gluten free chicken. Do you suppose they take care not to cross contaminate? I did buy my Christmas tree from...

    ARCHIVED Type 1 Diabetes

    neesee replied to Lisa's topic in Related Issues & Disorders

    Type 1s are usually thin at diagnosis. They can't control glucose levels with oral medications. They need insulin because their pancreas's no longer have the ability to make insulin. Type 2s do make insulin. For some reason their bodies no longer react to it. Type 1s get a condition called ketoacidosis when their glucose levels are out of control. Type ...

    It sounds a heck of a lot like diverticular disease. And it is diagnoced with a ct scan and a high white blood cell count.

    Ranger, I noticed that you are 63 years old. That would make your in-laws somewhere in their 80's. If I were you, I would cut them some slack. Maybe they could even use a little help around the house themselves. Take a good hard look at them. They could be slipping. If the kithcen is that filthy, they probably need someone to help them out. This stuff...

    Thank you Debbie......I was really curious about how the doctors at a place as prestigious as the Mayo felt about stool testing. It's interesting! It's also not what I expected. neesee
  14. neesee
    Hi Debbie.....I'm glad the Mayo was able to help you. It sounds like you'll be back in the swing of things real soon. It was a good decision to go to the Mayo. I do have a question. Didn't your Naturopathic Dr diagnose a gluten problem with stool tests? What did the Mayo clinic think about that? neesee

    ARCHIVED Group Letter to Dr. Fine

    neesee replied to Gentleheart's topic in Doctors

    I had no trouble at all being diagnosed with traditional medicine. The gastroenterologist came into my hospital room and took one look at me sitting there in my pediactric pajamas, crying and shaking,and he started arranging all the tests for celiac. I had never heard of it back then. The nurses didn't even know what it was. So yes, for me, traditional...

    ARCHIVED Group Letter to Dr. Fine

    neesee replied to Gentleheart's topic in Doctors

    I believe he was sent a registered letter. That means he had to sign for it. I would love to be wrong about the guy. I hope he responds to Gentleheart soon. How can you mistreat someone who is as kind and trusting as she is? It's just wrong. neesee

    ARCHIVED Group Letter to Dr. Fine

    neesee replied to Gentleheart's topic in Doctors

    No....that's not what I said. I said if he doesn't respond that's all you need to know about him. You obviously mean nothing to him. Do you allow other people to treat you that way when you ask them a question? If you asked your own dr a question and you know he hears you but he ignores you and walks away, would you continue to see him? I seriously doubt...

    ARCHIVED Group Letter to Dr. Fine

    neesee replied to Gentleheart's topic in Doctors

    I think Gentleheart wrote a fantastic letter. She is a true lady. I sincerely hope Dr. Fine responds for her sake. Such a dear person should not be ignored. If he doesn't respond, I think that says everything you need to know about him. neesee

    ARCHIVED Group Letter to Dr. Fine

    neesee replied to Gentleheart's topic in Doctors

    I was thinking about that letter today! Granted, I didn't sign it, but I am interested in what Dr. Fine has to say. So Gentleheart you are mistaken. The forum does deserve to have an update. Frankly, I'm not at all surprised by Dr. Fine's lack of response. neesee

    Chicken Santa Fe, Santa fe style rice and beans, and there's another one with turkey medalians in a cranberry sauce. I forgot the name of it. The thing of it is, WW states these are gluten-free at the end of the ingredient list. My middle aged eyesight appreciates that.

    Wow! I don't even bother to look for stuff like this anymore. I'm going to check this stuff out. Who would have thought it? Cereal and several weight watchers frozen dinners are gluten-free too. I found the weight watchers stuff a few months ago.

    My cholesterol has always been pretty low due to the celiac. At it's lowest, it was 96 total. Several years later into the diet, my triglycerides tested at 28. Twenty-one years later my cholesterol stays at around 150. I don't know the hdl,ldl or triglycerides anymore. My newer drs choose not the share that with me. Makes me kinda mad. I like to know what...

    What were you son's numbers? You didn't list his results.
