Oh ladies, thank you so much for all of the responses. Aussie Girl, I toasted to your name this evening as I threw back my Metanucil.

The dietician I went to go see sent me home with a variety of tests. She is testing my thyroid function, my cortisol levels and is doing a food sensitivity test. She is also going over my blood work for the last five years to see what my body's chemistry was pre cancer, during cancer and after cancer. I like her, she's thorough. She also requested a copy of all of my MRIs, CT scans, Pet Scan and Mammos. Again, I really like her.

So if she tells me something groundbreaking or gives me some good stuff to share...I'll share it in 3 weeks when I see her next.
