	ARCHIVED Vaccines?odcdinah posted a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease My gastroenterologist office just called and left a vague message about writing an order for me to get 2 vaccines - they didn't specify which ones. Any idea what they would be for and why? I was just diagnosed 3 weeks ago (by biopsy and blood test).

	ARCHIVED Colonoscopyodcdinah replied to jaimi alderson's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease My understanding is that there is not really an increased risk for colon cancer in celiacs - primarily small bowel problems.

	ARCHIVED Constant Gasodcdinah replied to odcdinah's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease I've thought about that, but what exactly does it mean?

	You are right Nicole, and I have thought about that. At the moment, my gastro symptoms have hardly improved at all since going on the gluten-free diet. If it is still the same way in July, I"m not going to worry about a bite. However, if I am feeling better by then, will most likely skip the cake quote name='NicoleAJ' date='Apr 21 2006, 11:34 AM' post...

	Congrats! I am getting married in July and am newly diagnosed. The reception is buffet, but I"m going to ask the caterer to prepare a special plate for me. As for the cake, my doctor told me to go entirely gluten-free, but said to me "I'm telling you to have a few bites of cake at your wedding". I know the purists would disagree, but it's a once in a...

	ARCHIVED Food For Life gluten-free Brown Rice Breadodcdinah replied to VydorScope's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications Acutally, it was the first bread I tried. Not too bad, a bit sticky but not as crumbly as some, taste not bad either. Worth a try!

	I think alot of it is the feelings of living with a chronic illness, and the unpredicatbility of it. Research shows that feelings of a lack of control can contribute to depression. I can relate!
