Saw A Dietician The Other Day...

I saw a Dietician at the hospital a week ago, and honestly she had nothing to tell me that I didn't already know, all thanks to this forum! This is such a great resource, and everyone I've encountered here is so helpful and friendly. My Celiac diagnosis was really overwhelming at first. I got a phone call saying my blood tests confirmed the initial biopsy, and THAT'S IT. No follow up, not even a stinking hand out. :huh: Finding this site and forum is the only thing that got me through this, and I just wanted to thank all of you! Your advice has been right on, and as you all know, there is nothing like realizing you are not the only one out there with all these weird symptoms. Thank you!!

I can relate, I have been in some type of pain everyday since Nov 09. I was dx in May wih Celiac. My dr gave me some handouts, but it was my dietitian who only does gluten-free that was my biggest help in the beginning. She was amazing! She and my dr office both suggested this forum for me. When everyone looks at me like I'm crazy and thinks I'm nuts about CC, this forum helps me know I'm not alone.

After being dx in Feb I askked for a referral to a dietician and received a call last week for an appointment. That was usefull :( ! I said "thank you but I already have the info That I need" thanks to this forum and some digging myself. You need to be proactive with this situation. I managed to find a cooworker who is a dietician and celiac ( I didn't know) and she gave me tips on where to shop etc.. Having acess to a search through the university library has provided a plethora of info but this site has been the most informative

      I’m so confused…

      Thank you. I already cut out dairy and eggs because I found out I was having a problem with them. To be honest I’m just getting worn out 😂

      Can food allergies like milk and soy flatten villi?

      By Deanne jones · Posted

      Hi Kitty, thank you for your e mail,  I have seen a nutritionist who seemed to be happy with the food diary I had been keeping and nothing was mentioned about extra vitamins, and I’m still using milk etc . The steroids seem to be working and everything is functioning as it should however,  the course of tablets finish at the end of February and I have an appointment with the consultant early April probably followed by another endoscopy, as far as I’m aware I have not been tested for vitamin B and will definitely discuss it with the doctor on my next visit.

      Being a burden to family/friends

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      It might be understandable to say "friends or family weeded me or you out of their lives". Some people are fearful of getting out of their comfortable known lives and having to make changes to accommodate another.   If they are too uncomfortable to walk a mile with me, I shake the dust off my feet and journey on.  They're just not ready to learn that lesson.  But you confidently keep going on your journey.  They can catch up later.

      You might also be sensitive to other things while you are healing. Dairy, for example. It won't harm you from a celiac standpoint but is inflammatory and could be bothering you. Have you been keeping a food & symptom journal? Might be worth it for a week to see if you notice something you are eating prior to the times you feel your worst. I hope you start feeling better soon.

      Recipe Apps?

      By lmemsm · Posted

      Someone recently recommended Superfoods for looking up recipes free of allergens or intolerances.  It's a web site but there's also an app.
