Misc. questions and comments and complaints

[Guest guest]

Is Dr. Vikki in san francisco?

does she take Cigna health insurance?

I have not been impressed with Dr. Aron. All he's done is advise another

biopsy, take over a month to get results, overcharge me for it and then

prescribe apriso and its $50/month with my insurance. I lasted 5 months without

any noticeable difference before i decided to stop.

All-in-all I still feel pretty crappy after 2 1/2 years gluten free, except for

the first 6 months. I've given up sugar and most processed food (even gluten

free processed food) and still struggle with low energy levels and digestive

troubles. I also struggle with my weight. I've gained 20 pounds since going

gluten free!

I wish there was a pill or gruel that had all the nutrients a person needs so I

could give up food. remember they had that on the movie The Matrix? i don't

really like the protein bars out there because they have so much chemicals and

preservatives (besides Lara Bars, but they're not really " protein " ) does anyone

know of a good gluten free protein bar or drink that has minimal chemicals and

preservatives?

I've been re-reading many of the posts from the last few months and it looks

like i should try L-glutamine & Vitamin D. i have a few questions:

Is L-glutamine just for accidental glutenizing? or for daily use?

I also didn't understand the difference between the different kinds of vitamin D

and which is the one I should try.

Is the Stanford celiac convention worth the $80 admission?

Is it close to a cal train station?

ok, sorry for the post full of questions.

and thanks for letting me vent a bit

Hi April,

Dr.Vicki is in Sunnyvale. I too had digestive problems even after stopping

gluten. Alot of times people who are gluten intolerant also have an allergy to

dairy products or casein. I do. I can't eat gluten,dairy ,eggs or anything with

yeast.

I take glutamine, vitamin D3 and omega three's. I also take digestive enzymes

and betaine hydrochloride. L-glutamine helps your intestines rebuild and also

helps with leaky gut.

I haven't found any good bars either.

Hope this helps,

June
