Two months ago my internist suggested a diagnosis of "gluten-sensitive
enteropathy" and referred me to a hospital dietecian who helped me get
started on a gluten-free diet.  I'm getting the hang of the diet and am
feeling much better.

To be certain I'm doing everything necessary to protect my health, I've
made a follow-up appointment with a gastroenterologist for later this
month.  Can someone recommend any specific questions I should ask, or
any tests I might want to request?

One concern is that I'm not getting adequate nutrition because I've had
some joint pain, depression, and fatigue.  After doing some research on
the internet, I did start taking a good multi-vitamin, minerals, and an
essential oil.  I also take digestive enzymes with meals.

I'd appreciate any suggestions.  Thank you!
