ARCHIVED Can Anyone Shed Light On This Topic
miche posted a topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Hello , I live in Ontario Canada, I have been on a very strict gluten free diet in the hope that it would help my stomach issues and my fibromyalgia symptoms . I read that there can be a long period of withdrawal however I am somewhat mystified that after 9 weeks I find myself with new symptoms , reflux has improved dramatically and the pain in my chest and... -
ARCHIVED Any Celiac(s) From Canada
miche replied to Gerri's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Hi curious george, I live in Hamilton Ontario , my test was covered , the secret is to get it done at a hospital lab, the insurance did not cover the test from the lab at my doctor's office , make a few calls , it must be the same in Toronto. Good luck! Miche -
