Hi, everyone...

    First of all, I had hoped to reply to everyone who had so kindly and
graciously responded to my request for information re: my post of
several weeks ago, subject - "Celiac undiagnosed," but came down with
pneumonia and a sinus infection and just haven't had the energy. So, I
guess this time around, I'll have to feel okay with a 'thanks so much'
to the group of people who sent me info and encouragement. My Dr.'s appt
with my gastro is on Tuesday, so I'm hoping I'll know something in the
next few weeks.
    Since I've been a bit under the weather, I've been reading the posts
but not keeping close tabs on who wrote what. Just recently, however,
someone wrote requesting information on GF milk - is there a good one
out there? Does anyone know about Vitamite? It's lactose free, but
contains milk protein. I seem to tolerate it much better than standard
milk, but because I drink up to four gallons a week, maybe it's part of
my problem.
    Also, to the person who wrote today about Prilosec not being GF,
thanks! Just another bullet in my arsenal. I kept telling my gastro that
Prilosec made me feel lousy and didn't seem to help, and Prevacid seemed
to work better. He claimed Prilosec was considered the 'better' drug for
hyperacidity. Humph! Sometimes, with so many drugs in my system, I think
I don't know what works and what doesn't. It's nice to know I can really
trust what my body tells me.
    And, speaking of drugs, does anyone know about Allegra, Ritalin,
Klonopin, Premarin, or Tylenol Arthritis (Extended Relief)? I can call
the pharmacist for the drug companies' phone numbers, but thought I'd
check with you all, first. If I don't hear from anyone, I'll call on
these drugs early next week and report for those who may be on these
medications.
    To the person who wrote asking about kidney disease, though I'm as
yet still unofficially diagnosed, I suffer from chronic hematuria caused
by sclerosing of the glomeruli. If I become officially diagnosed, you
can add me to your list.
    Thanks, again, to everyone for your incredible support. I am truly
sorry not to have gotten you all written individually - you certainly
deserved a personal note!

Ayn.
