New To Omaha Area

I'm new to the Omaha, NE area and just discovered this forum. I was diagnosed with Celiac 3 years ago out in western NE by a doctor who caught the disease but didn't know what to do with me. I've gotten a lot of help from Gluten Free Bible and Gluten Free Gourmet. I may have read one other book but otherwise I feel I've had to learn all this on my own. I would love to find a doctor that understands Celiac. Pretty much now, when I have any weird symptoms I just chalk it up to "I must've gotten gluten." I feel fairly well but always have questions. Does anyone know of a good doctor in the Omaha area?

If you do find one who knows about celiac disease, especially a GI doc. please post. I don't live there but I have a relative that lives in that part of the country, who I'm looking for.

There is a Jason Cisler in Omaha who is the one who actually diagnosed my husband with Celiac after being sick for years and tons and tons of doctor visits, etc. and being misdiagnosed. Clinic name is: Midwest GI Associates 402-397-7057, am sure you are not still looking but I haven't logged in for quite a while and thought maybe this info would help out someone else

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
