Hi, Jeanette

I don't know if this helps you, but I go to Dr. Sandy in Vincennes for my celiac. There are some other doctors in the complex but don't know if any are pediatric.

Eliana was evaluated through First Steps and they recommended that she see a Pediatric GI and an ENT. I know there are none in Dubois county. I will have to drive to either Indy or Evansville. She has eating issues among possibly Celiac but I know it's more then her reflux. The doctor needs to take Hoosier Healthwise as well. Thank you!

I use Dr. Bhandari with IMA in Bloomington. Him and my son's pediatrition seem knowledgeable about celiac disease. However, I did not take my son in for a biopsy - his blood test was negative and we just watch the food he eats. He can still eat gluten. So, I don't know that he would be considered a pediatric GI doc.

The celiac disease people in B-town that I know all used Bhandari but I know other non-celiac disease people that prefer Dr. Ghosh.

Good luck - you probably will find a better assortment in Evansville or you might try Riley at IUPUI. And, I have found, you can sometimes get in a little faster using the hospitals at IUPUI in Indy. The docs at Riley are really great.

Thanks. That's what I figured that the docs at Riley's were better. I'm not originally from IN so it's hard for me to find doctors and such. It's even harder when you have to find someone that takes Hoosier Healthwise but I think my best bet is Riley's at this point.

Thanks for the links on my way there now!

      Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      There is a 10 year old post in this forum on Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream. The information is somewhat outdated and the thread is closed to further comment, so here is a new one. Edy's And Dreyer's Grand Vanilla Bean Ice Cream - 1.5 Quart is labeled "Gluten Free". This is a different answer than years gone by. I don't know the answer for any other flavor at this moment. On 1 May, 2026, Edy's website says: "As a general rule, the gluten in Edy's and Dreyer's® frozen dessert products is present only in the added bakery products, such as cookies, cake or brownies. We always label the eight major food allergens on our package by their common name. We recommend to always check the label for the most current information before purchasing and/or consuming a product. The exception to this rule is our Slow Churned French Silk frozen dairy dessert, which contains gluten in the natural flavors." https://www.icecream.com/us/en/brands/edys-and-dreyers/faq It seems that Edy's and Dreyer's are more celiac-friendly than they were 10 years ago. Once I found enough information to make today's buying decision, I stopped researching.

      probably not your situation @Mimiof2, but allow me to add one more to @trents list of celiac-mimics: "olmesartan-induced sprue-like enteropathy"

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      My dad had an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm.  Fortunately, it was discovered during an exam.  The doctor could feel my dad's heart beating in his stomach/abdomen.  The aneurysm burst when the doctor first touched it in surgery.  Since he was already hooked up to the bypass machine, my dad survived ten more years.  Close call! Triple A's can press on the nerves in the spinal cord causing leg pain.  I'm wondering if bowing the head might have increased the pressure on an aneurysm and then the nerves.   https://gulfcoastsurgeons.com/understanding-abdominal-aortic-aneurysm-symptoms-and-causes/ Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Presenting as a Claudication https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4040638/

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      You have an odd story there. To me, the mechanical trigger suggests a mechanical problem and lower leg pain is a classic sciatica symptom. The fact that the clear mechanical linkage is no longer there does not take away from the fact that it was - maybe something shifted and the simple alignment is no longer there. There's also a good chance I am wrong and it's something else entirely. @Scott Adams's mention of shingles is interesting. It seems possible but unlikely to me, but who knows. However, I am writing here to reinforce the idea of getting the shingles vaccine. Ask anyone who has ever had shingles and they will bend your ear telling you how bad it is. I watched my wife go through it and it scared the bejeebers out of me. Even if you had the chicken pox vaccine, you really want to get the shingles vaccine.

      Oddly this effect has gone now, just happened yesterday evening, the nerve pain is now back to its usual "unpredictable" random self again - but that was the only time I ever had some mechanical trigger for it, don't know why! There's no (or wasn't) actual pain in my neck - it was inside the leg, but when I looked down, now though, the leg pain just comes and goes randomly as before again.
