If I'm not mistaken, you need to count by the grams of GLUTEN, not the gram weight of the bread. So, instead of counting each slice of bread as 35 grams, it would be counted as 2 grams, so that's why the recommendation is 5 slices a day = 10 grams. One of the moderators can correct me if I'm wrong on that! -

Advantages vs. Disadvantages of having an official Celiac diagnosis
Question re: life/health insurance: if you're already under these policies, do you have to notify them if you receive an official diagnosis, or is that only for new policies? I have had two active term life insurance policies for many years that I pay a set amount into. And my employer covers my health insurance. So, do I need to let them both know if... -

My 5 months of Struggle
I'm new here so I'm not sure if I'm allowed to recommend doctors? But I am in Manhattan and see Dr. Lauren Schwartz at Manhattan Gastroenterology. I am still in the process of (potentially) being diagnosed and she has been wonderful. She has experience in Celiac and has a very calming bedside manner. I feel confident I'll get the right diagnosis with... -

Not knowing how long I have to wait for a hospital appointment for the intestine and biopsy seems to make things worse. The thing is if you have headaches you take pain killers, isn’t there anything that I can do?. -

I have had two active term life insurance policies for many years that I pay a set amount into. And my employer covers my health insurance. So, do I need to let them both know if I do become officially diagnosed? I'm glad I read this, because that would certainly be marked off in the "disadvantage" box for me!

I am still in the process of (potentially) being diagnosed and she has been wonderful. She has experience in Celiac and has a very calming bedside manner. I feel confident I'll get the right diagnosis with her. Give her a try if she takes your insurance. Good luck!
