Hi - This is my first posting. I'v been reading for
several months. I have really learned alot from all of
you. I was biopsy diagnosed in 1987 & told not to eat
wheat, oats, barley or rye. I have been on my own
since then. I thought I was pretty healthy. I feel
good. But you guys have scared the heck out of me. I
must not be super-sensitive like a lot of you.

Anyway-I know I have been eating alot of things with
hidden gluten in them. I do occasionally have symptoms
& wonder what I have eaten (that I shouldn't have). My
GP(admittedly)doesn't know alot about CD, so I asked
for a referral to a gastro. My appt. is in 2 days. I
have a different insurance now than when I was fist
diagnosed. They are not aware of my CD. Am I opening
up a can of worms by going to a specialist now? I
don't want my health ins. to be cancelled. I live in
western New York & I have Community Blue. Has anyone
had any experience with this? I know I have seen
something about this on this list before. I need to
find out by tomorrow. Thank you. Linda
