Most of the doctors I've seen just refer me to a website, they don't know much, do you know of anyone?

Great news!

With the hurricane so did changes... I found a doctor that treats celiac disease, very nice office staff.

DaddyO and I, both have an appointment with him this coming week. The girls in the office have called me back three times. I told her I can refer 100 Celiac's from a local group. Open Original Shared Link The group requires a membership fee. I have a problem with that and there policy, when someone doesn't have the ability to pay. My thoughts on a support group is to HELP others. So I made them that web site, but because I can't afford the groups fees I'm not a paid member. You might have better luck...

Anyway back to the GOOD DOC -- The office staff told me they were located in Ft Lauderdale, but hurricane Wilma blew the roof off their building and they scrabled to move and, moved to Boca. He has a basic web site Open Original Shared Linkhe's from NY and is good, I'm told. I will see for myself next week. His name is Dr Richard Saltz, 801 Meadows Rd. Boca Raton his number is 561.362.9360. You can say the headhead Ms Sillyak from Boca send you from the message boards, they will know who you mean.

But here are a few more NOT to TRY.

NO GO -

Dr Robert Mellman 561-395-5204

The girl that answered the phone didn't have a clue about celiac disease. Carol the assistant I left a message for a few weeks ago, she NEVER returned my call. He is the brother of a Indocronogist (sp) Mellmen in Boynton beach

NO GO -

GASTRO ASSO PA in Boca Raton 9960 Central Pk N Suite 302 488-2700. Again I left a messsage to speak to someone to set up and appointment RE: celiac disease. It been over a week and Debbie his assistant NEVER CALLED BACK!

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
