Scary stuff in there, Lisa. Basically, Peter Greene is saying that the doctors only know what the drug companies want them to know :o :o

Lisa, what a good find! Thanks for posting this. It is worth the read! And, another reason why the Celiac community is lucky to have Dr. Green! This quote was interesting: "About 75 percent of all patients now diagnosed at the Celiac Disease Center arrive not by physician referrals, but because patients learned about Green’s practice by searching the Internet or through a patient advocacy group. " and "And the only way that’s going to change is if patients take charge of their own care. If they suspect they have a problem with gluten, they need to go to their internist and say, ‘Is it possible I’ve got celiac disease? Why don’t you test me? Why don’t you refer me to somebody who treats this?’ "

Yes, I too. That's another reason why THIS forum is so important. It's so important to many of us that accurate information and research is available to those in need.

Thanks Lisa! I'm printing the article off and giving a copy to my chiropractor (he wants to learn more about Celiac).

Happy New Year! Happy New Decade!

Thank you so much for posting this. I have book marked this and will share it with everyone I possibly can. Just curious as to whether it would be useful/prudent for many of us to forward our medical records to the good doctor in interest of increasing his data base for research purposes. Any thoughts on this?

Well, you could contact the Columbia Celiac Disease Center and inquire.

I don't know where you live but, the Celiac Center at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston, MA is enrolling participants in a study to evaluate the type of symptoms that occur in celiac disease and to look at how living with Celiac Disease affects peoples lives.

You can contact them at:

      Mine is definitely triggered by inflammation and stress! I do also have arthritis in my spine, but the pain is more in my pelvic area. Im sure i have other food intolerances or other autoimmune isues but the more I focus on it and see doctor after doctor, it just gets worse.  Best thing is get of Gluten! (I also avoid lactose). Try to limit stress and anything that causes inflammation in your body.

      Good morning,   I got an email about replies to this post. Some of my doctors had blamed a slipped disc for the pain I had and that contributes, but after meeting with a gastroenterologist AGAIN and trying some lifestyle modifications, I found out I have IBS and can't tolerate corn or excessive fructose to any degree. Cutting out corn AFTER having cut out all gluten containing products was a real pain but I feel much better now!

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.

      Has anyone experimenced enlarged lymph nodes with celiac? Both in the neck and groin area. Imaging of both areas have said that lymph nodes are reactive in nature. However, they have been present for months and just wondering how long this may take to go down. Been gluten-free for about two months. Blood counts are normal.
