I ended up getting a referral to a nutritionist from my GI doctor and that has really helped. Even after our first meeting when I was in really bad shape, I found useful information and hope. I would recommend asking your doctor for a referral. I was clueless, thinking all I had to avoid was wheat products.

I am so glad that you brought up the matter of an appointment with a dietician, @guthealth. I have seen a dietician several times for various GI problems and most recently for a pre-diabetes situation. They are well trained in various health problems and know food and nutrition and can teach about the subject. I would encourage everyone in this group to ask about a referral to a dietician. It can make a world of difference to have that kind of support!
