Recommending A Good Doctor In Az

These have been WONDERFUL doctors in and around Tucson, Arizona

Dr. Wataru Tamura - A GI doctor in Oro Valley, Arizona. He is REALLY knowledgable about Celiac Disease, keeps very up to date on the latest research, etc... He will want to test you out the wazoo, which can be a bit 'urg' to argue with if you simply don't have the money, but he is still very good for the disease.

Dr. Min - An Allergist in Tucson. He is very good working with you on allergies and issues, and seems to be very careful of his celiac patients. He's also willing to think outside the box, so when you have some weird, celiac related problems, he's been great for that.

Dentist! Dr. Mooberry - a dentist father and son team in Tucson. They got two celiac patients within a month, I was their third, and they already had all the knowledge about their supplies. They can now tell you exactly what has gluten and what doesn't, and they are very careful of their celiac patients. They are also just as careful of food allergies. They may not be completely knowledgable, but they are VERY willing to learn and be careful of whatever you talk to them about.

      Gluten Sensitivity

      By trents · Posted

      @rjane, yes, it often feels overwhelming in the beginning. But let me encourage you by saying that it will get easier. You and your husband will develop, over time, a sixth sense of how gluten is typically hidden in the food supply and where it is found and you will develop an inventory of foods that you can trust and to stock your pantry with. The largest risk involves eating out at restaurants. Even if you order things that are naturally gluten free, you have no control over cross contamination happening back in the kitchen in how things are prepared and handled. Another trap is eating at other people's homes who are trying to accommodate your husband's need to eat gluten free but...

      Has your hubbie been checked for SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth)? This is not uncommon in the celiac population. https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/21820-small-intestinal-bacterial-overgrowth-sibo
