Great Experience At Troy Beaumont Lab

I just wanted to take a moment to give credit where it is due. Our family has had two wonderful lab experiences in a row with "Leo" at the Troy Beaumont Hospital lab in Troy, Michigan (Dequindre and M-59). He drew blood for both my husband and I a while back for our celiac panels and he was so gentle I didn't even feel it. My daughter (age 9) was due for her celiac re-test and nutritional evals. today so we went back to see Leo, and he was so good with her. He used a private room, put on Scooby-Doo, talked her through the poke and made her feel very safe and comfortable. Most importantly, he didn't hurt her with the needle. His bedside manner was top-notch.

If you ever read this, Leo...thank you!

Is it for yourself or a child? I can only offer a recommendation for a ped. GI. Look under this thread called "recommend a doctor in your state":

https://www.celiac.com/gluten-free/index.php?showtopic=25206

Maybe someone can refer you to an adult GI from there. If not, post a seperate thread and ask for one directly. Good luck! If you need help understanding your tests, please do post. There are many knowledgable folks on this forum.

PS--check out the Tri-county Celiac Support Group. I believe they now have a Macomb based meeting.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
