Looking For A Doctor Is Chicago Area

I was diagnosed in October 2003 but the GI cannot answer any of my questions. I have had to research everything on my own. I'm also looking for a suport group in the area.

Marybet,

If you live in the Chicago area you should contact the University of Chicago Celiac Disease Program. They have a lot of information on their website, and if you couldn't get in to see one of their doctors, then maybe they could put you in touch with another good one. They could also point you towards some support groups in your area.

Here is the contact information I found on this site-Celiac.com:

Michelle Melin-Rogovin, Program Director

I hope this helps.

      Totally agree with you about oxalates.  Changed my diet recently since reading about them.  No more daily handfuls of almonds or almond milk.  Turns out they are very high in oxalates.  Noticed an immediate improvement in my digestion and urine was no longer cloudy.  Pecans and walnuts are a safer alternative.  Spinach, too, is a definite no-go.

      I agree with @trents on the sourdough bread--regular bread should be used, or Saltine crackers, etc.

      I'm sorry about your financial issues, and unfortunately we can't offer any legal advice here, but at least you've figured out that you have celiac disease, and have hopefully lead a more healthy life as the result.

      When I was in Germany supermarkets offered excellent European/German style breads by Schar that were outstanding. I wish they sold them here in the USA.

      Welcome to the forum, Jane! A very sad story! Thanks for sharing. Is there something we can help you with or did you just feel a need to unburden? Unburdening, by the way, is certainly okay and we all need to find safe places to do it once in a while.
