I was diagnosed in July with Celiac Sprue. My gastro.
MD confirmed the diagnoses, told me to see a dietician
and I would be fine. My family MD said eat GF and I'd be
fine. When asked about bone scan my family MD said I was
much to young. I then switched to an internist had a bone scan
and found out I have moderate to severe osteoporosis (-1.9).

I am only 34, have two young children, work full-time and am
tired of the constant pain in my hips and back, lack of sleep
and all the time needed to eat GF. My employer wants to put
me on long term disability but my internist MD says I'm fine just
need to eat GF, continue the strength training and relax.

I need to find a new internist or family practice who will take me
serious and deals with celiac and all the other things that go with it.
Any recommendations for one in the St. Paul or Minneapolis area?
