    Months ago, we saw a Celiac specialist (M.D.) who charges $400 per hour and doesn't take insurance.

She's been strictly gluten free for five months (don't eat out, our family all went gluten-free at the same time and we only eat certified gluten-free or whole foods). She's been gluten-free for five months and there has been no improvement in her...
