question re Stanford conference

[Guest guest]

The conference today was great: extremely informative, fun, & well organized. It was great to see so many other people with celiac & to try so many snacks, a surprising number of which tasted good.My question is this: Did anyone hear one of the presenters, Dr. Green, explain in Q & A why he thought Fosamax was not a good thing to take? Did he say anything further than he does in his book? In the book, he suggests Fosamax or other similar drugs might interfere with the body's regulation of calcium, especially if one's intestines haven't healed yet. Even one of the other presenting doctors, Gail Pyle, was surprised. Anyway, thanks to all the organizers! This was my first time (I was diagnosed about a month after last year's conference). I'm really glad I went.Sharon Wood
