Re: Re: Question about Celiac

Maybe you should have them pay for it?? hahaha But no matter what the

answer, they could contradict it. If you come back positive, like a lot of

parents probably would, they'd say it was false. No win situation (unless

you came up negative and then maybe....). Hang in there you! It is hard to

know thetruth and others cant see it. But we have one obligation and that

is to our little sweeties and everyone else can take a hike. Take care and

trust your gut, (So glad you found the answers so early!! Good

job, Mommy!!!)

I'm another mom being tested for celiac disease who had gallbladder

surgery soon after the birth of my first child! Coincidence?

I don't mean to butt in here, but I've been on the diet three weeks now.

I'm a man, have never had celiac disease or a gall bladder problem, and did

it primarily to join my son. But although I was getting cravings for bread

and butter for a while, lately it hasn't been so hard. And the thing is,

it's non-invasive.

You're just changing the foods you eat, it's not terribly hard to do

(easier for me than quitting cigarettes which I'm still working on) and if

you have reason to believe it may improve your health I say don't stop to

think about it, give it a shot.

Again, sorry if I'm butting in inappropriately.
