I know the frustration of having to have a medical issue, and not know ( nor the dr's) know what the problem is. That is what happened to our daughter. Please check into gluten free diet since you are a diabetic. check out celiac.com for more info on that.

BTW, what do you think about Congresswoman Nita Lowey introduction of H.R. 467?

47 - HR 467 - it is a good idea, sort of a strange, poorly written bill. It seems that it is written by a vegetarian, rather than someone truly concerned about allergic reactions. It emphasises animal additives, and then proceeds to list mostly vegetable additives as allergins.


"(3) These additives often contain derivatives of meat, poultry, other animal products such as insects, and allergens (such as peanuts, tree nuts, fish, shellfish, eggs, milk, soy, and wheat). "

thanks again. I previously reviewed gluten alergy as a problem, and don't think I am anything more than perhaps particularly sensitive to gluten, however, I have found that I have pretty much all the symptoms of Cushing's disease, one of the symptoms of which is diabetes.

If you have diabetes you should check out Cusing's Disease, particularly if you are or have been under a lot of stress. It is a disease of the pituitary gland, causing too much secretion of cortisol, the stress hormone secreted by the adrenal glands.
