Hi, My name is Teri Daniels.  I was diagnosed with Celiac Sprue in March
and I have been learning everything from the Listserv.  This is my first
posting.  I am going to the doctors for the first time since been told I
had this disease.  My doctor doesn't know anything about this disease
and therefore doesn't know what tests should be done or how often.  I
was wondering if I could get that information from you.  Remember I
haven't had any tests done except the upper GI to find that I had Celiac
Sprue.  So I need to also know what tests should have been done
orginally to find where I stand as far as health is concerned.

I have been feeling better on the gluten free diet.  However there are
days that I feel very weak and sick just like I did before going gluten
free.  I am learning everyday what I can and cannot eat and I am pretty
sure I am not injesting anything I shouldn't.  Do any of you often get
sick with no explanation why.  I haven't been able to go back to work
because I don't know when this feeling is going to come or go.  As it
stands it happens quite often.  I would appreciate it if any of you
could help.  Thank you in advance.

Terri
