Have you been tested for celiac disease? What makes you think you have it (before going gluten free)? Have you had you gallbladder tested ( HIDA scan)? Are your other autoimmune disorders under control? Not to be nosy, but more background information would help.

I hope others on the forum can direct you to a GI who has a strong background in celiac disease in the OK city area.

Hi Natureman,

 

Is what you are saying is that you were diagnosed with Celiac 9 months ago and have been gluten-free ever since?  Then you have all those unresolved issues that may go beyond celiac?  One thing you may want to do is start a food/symptom journal that you can show your new doctor.  

 

Also, it looks like there is an active Celiac support group in OKC, you may want to contact them for further recommendations on doctors.  I know some people all over Oklahoma will travel to North Texas for Doctors sometimes, but unless you are able to do that easily, you may want to reach out to find a doctor closer to you.  If you want to travel to North Texas (Dallas area), I can recommend some people for you.  Go to these links:  Open Original Shared Link  and  Open Original Shared Link

I highly recommend the OU Medical Center in OKC. They have done an excellent job with my Celiac

and seeing improvement daily. A great team of GI doctors that understand the disease and how to

suppress it for a better way of life.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      If you were off gluten for two months that would have been long enough to invalidate the celiac blood antibody testing. Many people make the same mistake. They experiment with the gluten free diet before seeking formal testing. Once you remove gluten from the diet the antibodies stop being produced and those that are already in circulation begin to be removed and often drop below detectable levels. To pursue valid testing for celiac disease you would need to resume gluten consumption equivalent to the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread daily for at least two weeks, preferably longer. These are the most recent guidelines for the "gluten challenge". Without formal testing there is no way to distinguish between celiac disease and gluten sensitivity since their symptoms overlap. However, celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the small bowel lining, not true of gluten sensitivity. There is no test available for gluten sensitivity so celiac disease must first be ruled out. By the way, elevated liver enzymes was what led to my celiac diagnosis almost 25 years ago.

      Then it does not seem to me that a gluten-related disorder is at the heart of your problems, unless that is, you have refractory celiac disease. But you did not answer my question about how long you had been eating gluten free before you had the blood antibody test for celiac disease done.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      My genetic test results have arrived - I’m homozygous for DQB1*02, meaning I have HLA-DQ2. I’ve read that this is one of the genes most strongly associated with celiac disease, and my symptoms are very clear. I’m relieved that the results finally arrived, as I was getting quite worried since my symptoms have been getting worse. Next step, blood test. What do these results imply? What should I tell my family? I’m concerned that this genetic predisposition might also affect other family members.

      By rei.b · Posted

      So far 3 months in - worsening symptoms. I have had the worst constipation in my life and I am primarily eating naturally gluten-free foods like potatoes, eggs, salad with homemade dressing, corn tortillas, etc. I hate gluten-free bread and pasta so I don't eat it. Occasionally I eat gluten-free almond flour crackers. As stated in the post, I don't have any vitamin deficiency. I was already tested.
