I forget that in many states "naturopath" means nothing. She's an ND - the test went to your standard laboratory. But she didn't go into detail as far as... -
Wow! Hi everyone. I just found out this week that I have celiacs. I'm a little shocked, considering I wasn't really noticing any symptoms, I just have a niece that has it, and I read an article about how women with untreated celiacs have very small babies! So I mentioned it to my naturopath while at an appointment for my small baby (who I suspect has...
