<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> 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
