Cool thank you! You know, I have to wonder if there isn't a specialist for this type of thing. I mean, shouldn't somebody want to focus on it?

I've been trying my best to live gluten-free since Nov 07. My doctor considers the matter resolved since trying a gluten-free diet, and honestly he hasn't endeavored to learn anything more about celiac or gluten. I've been pretty much on my own. What I want to know is, are there specific kinds of tests a celiac should get regularly? Is it worth it to spend...

ARCHIVED I Found My Diagnosis Not My Doctor, And It Bothers Him.
Beloved replied to I hate gluten's topic in Doctors
I think all of this is rooted in the fact that most doctors simply know diddly about celiac. My doctor kept telling me I was stressed when I kept coming back to him with my symptoms, and it was only after I read an article on "The Real Doctor House" and found out about this disease caused Celiac that I started to wonder. While he was pushing me to take anti... -
ARCHIVED Residual Symptoms Or Slip Ups?
Beloved replied to Beloved's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Thank you very much, all of you. I think I am definately going to stop eating Taco Bell then. I believe this started becoming worse when I started working again (I was unemployed for three months and once I started working again I started eating out more). I think I will try doing without the Chipoltle for a while as well. As for the soda I'm trying... -
I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease back in Nov 07 after months of harassing my doctor trying to figure out what was making me so miserable. I found out about it in a medical magazine and decided the symptoms sounded similar to my own. I got the blood test for it and it came back positive, so I switched to a gluten-free diet. Now, back then I remember...

Thank you so much for your responses! I've been having trouble with the internet and couldn't access this site for some time, but it's fixed now. I greatly appreciate your responses and help! Also, I have found out a few things myself: -The Hard Rock Cafe is not safe for Celiacs in Japan, everything on their menu contains MSG -Komugiko is the word...

ARCHIVED Probiotics
Beloved replied to Trillian's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
My doctor told me to start taking Align when he found out I had celiac. So far I haven't really seen any benefit to it, but it's only been two weeks. It has the probiotic called Bifidobacterium infantis. -
You know, I had symptoms for months with my Doctor calling them stress and lactose intolerance and eventually when I was talking to him about my sister and her diabetes and my thyroid condition, a light bulb seemed to go off and he said we should test for celiac. He used a blood test and when that came back he told me I have celiac, so I'm going to go gluten...

Thank you very much! You've been a huge help. I will definitely bring some mixes and cookies and crackers with me from the gluten-free store, and I'll try and learn more about what I can eat there before I go. Thanks again!

How about just in general Asian countries?

ARCHIVED New To Celiac, Want To Make Sure My Medications Are Okay
Beloved replied to Beloved's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Thanks very much! I'll call the Pharmacy and ask them. -
I'm going to be in Japan for a month and a half. Obviously I'm going to be eating alot of rice, but are there any foods I should specifically avoid? Are there anything you would suggest (snacks, meals) that I can definitely eat? How do you say 'Gluten' in Japanese? Thanks!

ARCHIVED New To Celiac, Want To Make Sure My Medications Are Okay
Beloved posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Hello, I've just been diagnosed with Celiac and one of my friends who's very up on common medical problems gave me "Living Gluten-Free for Dummies" which has been extremely helpful. In the book, the writer mentions you should check medications for gluten too. How do I find out if the Trinessa I take for birth control and the Levothyroxine I take for Hashimoto...
