I see Dr. Salowe with The Gastroenterology Group in Bucks County PA. They're located near Oxford Valley Mall and Sesame Place.

I have only required annual check ups, and I have been pleased.

I just saw a really great doctor, Dr. Harvey Guttmann. I just went in for stomach and intestinal problems, had no thought whatsoever about Celiac, but he is the one who came up with it and is doing all the testing on me for it. I was very impressed with the nice office and great people and the doctor himself. He's the head GI at Abington hospital.

Again, this is a really old post. Most of the posters are probably no longer active on the board.

Oh okay sorry...I just figured it would pop up again for any new PA people, but I could start a new thread if that's better. I didn't know how active the boards were.

Thanks!

Its OK to add a doc. Just don't expect people from an old post to respond. I have had people message me to complain how rude people are that don't respond to thier posts/ Even it the person hasn't been on in 5 years.

      EMA Result

      By trents · Posted

      Let me hasten to add that if you will be undergoing an endoscopy/biopsy, it is critical that you do not begin efforts to reduce gluten beforehand. Doing so will render the results invalid as it will allow the small bowel lining to heal and, therefore, obscure the damage done by celiac disease which is what the biopsy is looking for.

      Violent reaction to gluten after going gluten-free?

      Seeking advice on potential gluten challenge

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      That’s a really tough situation. A few key points: as mentioned, a gluten challenge does require daily gluten for several weeks to make blood tests meaningful, but negative tests after limited exposure aren’t reliable. Dermatitis herpetiformis can also be tricky to diagnose unless the biopsy is taken from normal-looking skin next to a lesion. Some people with celiac or DH don’t react every time they’re exposed, so lack of symptoms doesn’t rule it out. Given your history and family cancer risk, this is something I’d strongly discuss with a celiac-experienced gastroenterologist or dermatologist before attempting a challenge on your own, so risks and benefits are clearly weighed.

      By Greymo · Posted

      https://celiac.org/glutenexposuremarkers/    yes, two hours after accidents ingesting gluten I am vomiting and then diarrhea- then exhaustion and a headache. see the article above- There is research that shows our reactions.

      EMA Result

      By trents · Posted

      Concerning the EMA positive result, the EMA was the original blood test developed to detect celiac disease and has largely been replaced by the tTG-IGA which has a similar reliability confidence but is much less expensive to run. Yes, a positive EMA is very strong evidence of celiac disease but not foolproof. In the UK, a tTG-IGA score that is 10x normal or greater will often result in foregoing the endoscopy/biopsy. Weaker positives on the tTG-IGA still trigger the endoscopy/biopsy. That protocol is being considered in the US but is not yet in place.
