Just out of interest; two points, with all these cut backs that are being planned, does anybody know if the Gluten Free Manufacturer's are fighting "our" corner? If the list of prescribable foods are going to be dramatically cut, then their businesses are going to suffer big time.
Also, for people suggesting that we shouldn't have GF foods on prescription, what would their feelings be for elderly / nutritionally deficient people no longer obtaining dietary supplements on prescription? (such as Fresubin, Fortisip?) Are these types of products going to be withdrawn from prescription and expected to be funded by the "patient" themselves also?
