Is there anyone who can recommend a good Dr. for Celiacs in southwestern NH. I live near Peterborough, but will go to Concord or Manchester if I have to, to find a doctor who knows about Celiac!

Thanks,

Marlene57

I'm no help since I live in Nothern NH but I just wanted to say hello to a fellow NH Celiac :)

Actually, I can help! The Seacoast Celiac Support Group is run by a great bunch of folks. They actually came up here not too long ago to give a bit of a speach and they had so much info. You can email Dan Davis at djdavis@mediaone.net or William Muzzey at munroe@nh.ultranet.com - I am sure that either of them would know of some great doctors in your area. They have a newsletter they send out with a TON of great celiac info, updates, etc. Good luck to you!

      False tTG3 Test?

      The problem with a a multiple screening test like this is that it is likely to generate at least one result that is outside the normal range in a healthy person leading to futile investigations. The pathogenesis of dermatitis herpetiformis makes it unlikely that someone would have raised IgA-tTG3 but not raised IgA-tTG2. Suspected dermatitis herpetiformis...

      Does anyone here also have Afib

      @Yaya, Vitamin supplements should be stopped eight to twelve weeks before testing blood levels. If vitamin supplements are not stopped, the tests will reflect the vitamins in circulation in the blood stream from the supplements, and blood levels may appear within "normal" limits. Blood tests do not reflect the amount of vitamins stored inside cells...

      Yes, I had COVID for 10 days thought I recovered like EV1 else, but suddenly had A-fib, hospitalized for 3 days, and now taking Flecainide 2X daily. Long C also ruined my once excellent metabolism. I do take B 50, and my bloodwork is always very good.

      False tTG3 Test?

      Thanks! I don't think it was a total IGA test, it was called "Array 3X - Wheat/Gluten Proteome Reactivity & Autoimmunity" and it tested a bunch of wheat proteins and transglutaminase for both IgG and IGAs.

      False tTG3 Test?

      Welcome to the forum, @SB04! Let's cut to the chase. Did they run a tTG-IGA and a total IGA? Total IGA goes by many names but it checks for IGA deficiency. If you are IGA deficient, IGA test scores will be artificially low and it can result in false negatives. The tTG-IGA is the centerpiece of celiac disease antibody testing. Dermatitis herpetiformis...

The pathogenesis of dermatitis herpetiformis makes it unlikely that someone would have raised IgA-tTG3 but not raised IgA-tTG2. Suspected dermatitis herpetiformis should be referred to a specialist for diagnosis. dermatitis herpetiformis causes a specific rash and symptoms - not merely hives. https://bestpractice.bmj.com/topics/en-gb/3000326

If you are IGA deficient, IGA test scores will be artificially low and it can result in false negatives. The tTG-IGA is the centerpiece of celiac disease antibody testing.  Dermatitis herpetiformis is the epidermal expression of celiac disease. Most who have dermatitis herpetiformis also have damage happening to the small bowel lining as well but a small percentage do not. But dermatitis herpetiformis has a characteristic appearance to it, with the rash bumps having pustules in the center. It is also accompanied by a very uncomfortable itch. From...
