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 :(

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By Joel K · Posted

      Since medical insurance is not affected directly by celiac disease on an ongoing basis (i.e. medication, medical devices, daily monitoring, home care nursing, etc), I rather doubt anyone would be denied a policy for having it as a pre-existing condition. I’ve certainly never been and I have two pre-existing conditions that are managed with diet alone and both are long-well-known by my doctors and via medical testing and procedures. Insurance is all about risk management, not health.

      Yes. And then it will become part of her medical record, which was my point.

      Gluten and short-term memory.

      By miguel54b · Posted

      I got beaten so bad playing dominoes that made me realize that I was probably eating something with gluten, the culprit (Simms premium cracked pepper STEAKSTRIP). Now I can look back and see all other symptoms: irregular stools, bad sleep, desire to eat uncontrollably, bad mood, etc. Gluten really does a job on my short-term memory.

      is my celiac disease gone?

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      I can confirm this. I no longer have any issues with Iodine since being strictly gluten and dairy free.

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      I should point out that iodine is known to exasperate dermatitis herpetiformis blistering. It can take several months or even years of a strict gluten-free diet for the IgA-TG3 deposits to clear from the skin. After the skin completely heals, iodine may no longer trigger symptoms. "The circulating antibodies disappear and skin symptoms resolve as a result of gluten-free diet but the cutaneous anti-TG3 IgA deposits may persist for several years.
