Im from philly and so far have had no luck with finding a good doctor that is willing to listen. Has anyone had any luck in my area with this? If so PLEASE share. Ive already been gluten-free for a month and I know that being tested will show no results, but I was hoping to find someone openminded who would be willing to take my symptoms and my results to a gluten-free diet seriously.

I go to West Chester GI associates West Chester PA. It is worth the drive. Dr Siedner-Joseph, Dr Kuryan and Dr Bobman are great Doctors and the practice seems to be much more aware about Celiac disease.

Go to www.celiacawareness.org and post this question to them. The woman who runs it lives there (I think) so they should be able to point you to the right place for Celiac dx.

Stef-

Worst comes to worst, two of the leading Celiac physicians/researchers are within a train ride from you. Dr. Peter Green at Columbia University in NYC and Dr. Alessio Fasano at University of Maryland, Baltimore (and their associates).

Hope that helps, at least some. best of luck.

      I strongly agree with others about processed gluten free foods, like breads and pasta, being bad for us. Read the labels, full of this starch and that starch, seed oils that are inflammatory, etc. Before you were celiac, you probably wouldn't even touch something with those ingredients. I do much better with whole foods, meat, veggies, a little fruit. I made 90% myself, make extra and freeze it for future meals. Cutting out processed gluten free food and eating mostly real whoke food helped me feel much better. And definitely benfotiamine!

      Please be sure to try Benfotiamine or Thiamine Hydrochloride.  The form Thiamine Mononitrate is not absorbed nor utilized well.  Benfotiamine is much more bioavailable.  Perhaps Thiamine Mononitrate was in your previous B Complex supplements, explaining why they didn't work for you.   All the B vitamins work together.  Thiamine needs the other B vitamins to make enzymes and ATP, so you will need to take them.  Taking them in individual supplements is fine.  I've done the same.  Just remember you need all eight.   Let me know how it's going for you!

      Thanks! This makes a lot of sense.

      Thanks! I am currently trying B1 out on its own. I tried many brands of B-complex and they always make me feel nauseous and tired. I think I may have to try taking each B vitamin on its own.
