Great Experience - Twin Cities Minnesota

For anyone out there in the Twin Cities, Minnesota area, I just took my DD to see a physician at MN Gastroenterology - Dr Lisko.  He was amazing!  Spent an hour talking with us and kept repeatedly telling us, he had all the time in the world.  He specializes in Celiac disease.  Based on her symptoms and suspicion of celiac disease - she is already scheduled for an endoscopy day after tomorrow. 

 

I thought I would provide another resource for those in this area.

Is this a pediatric gastro?  I live in an area of MN where there is not a pediatric gastroenterologist.  We would need to travel to the Twin Cites to see one.

He is not a pediatric gastro, he sees adults.  DD is now 22.  Sorry :(

      Bad Reaction To Regular Ruffles Cheddar and Sour Cream

      Constantly! I don't want everything to cost as much as a KIND bar, as great as they are.  Happy most of the info is available to us to make smart decisions for our health, just need to do a little more research.

      Weak positive anti-ttg igA?

      Be sure to keep eating gluten daily until all testing is completed.  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      Finding out I’m coeliac whilst pregnant

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      You can always to the gluten challenge later, after your pregnancy, should you need a formal diagnosis. I think it's best to play it safe in this case.

      Very true. I also suffered from candidiasis which had affected my intestines and toes. I think this might have triggered my gluten intolerance/celiac.

      Welcome to the forum community, @Jesmar! The HLA DQ2 and DQ8 genes were the original halotypes identified with the potential to develop celiac disease. Since then, other genes have been discovered that apparently afford a predisposition to celiac disease. As is always the case, these new discoveries are not yet common knowledge and not yet widely dispersed in the medical community. It is not genetically as black and white as we once thought.
