No...I have been gluten free since the ER visit two weeks ago......it was only 4 or 5 days of a gluten challange that landed me there. OK...sooooooooooooo Went to the ER and met with the liason.

She said I can't give you specifics due to liability over the phone...so come in and get them....the B panels came back.... -

ARCHIVED List For The Newly Diagnosed
chgomom replied to TCA's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Really?? No envelopes!?? Would that include touching the backs of stamps as well?? I also beg to differ on some of the foods in these lists....the chips like doritos and lays... a doc last night said not to have anything like that until your intestines are heal because the oil from the coats the intestines and makes it even ahrder for things to digest... -
