Hey Robert, I would be interested to hear what Dr. Rudert went over or said. I have an appt. on Thursday but if she isn't helpful then I don't want to go over 3 hrs. to see her.

I've heard great things about Dr. Rudert but she doesn't take insurance so that's out. What didn't you like about her?

It just depends om how informed you already are she was first doctor that said i was either celiac or gulten intolorance but as far as figuring what food to eat and reactions to different foods i had and have learned 99% of knowledge comes from this forum. Talked about symptoms i have had what i have been through what foods i have already stopped eating, what my diet was, when the last time was scoped. But like alot of people here I have had these issues most of my life so when finally figures it out the damage was already done and since seeing her have been to allergist found out have a lot of food allergys and I already figured out I had many many food intolances to go along with it . If you are new and need some help with diet and food and vitiams she will be good. Hope this helps

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's great to hear that there are some good doctors out there, and this is an example of why having a formal diagnosis can definitely be helpful.

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      By RMJ · Posted

      Update: I have a wonderful new gastroenterologist. She wants to be sure there’s nothing more serious, like refractory celiac, going on. She ordered various tests including some micronutrient tests that no one has ever ordered before.  I’m deficient in folate and zinc and starting supplements for both. I’m so glad I decided to go to a new GI!

      Autoimmune diseases tend to cluster. Many of them are found close together on the chromosomes.

      Just giving another update... I was referred to rheumatology, and they suspect that I may also be dealing with fibromyalgia (it has not been formally diagnosed, but just suggested at this point).  So, I am continuing with the anti-inflammatory diet and vitamins and still working to keep getting rid of all these hidden gluten sources, but I also do have another possible explanation for some of the issues that I'm dealing with.

      Newbie with Celiac / NCGS symptoms

      I would pressure the lab to do the IgA control test for free so that you won't write a poor review about their testing services. You could get this done at any time, whether or not you are gluten-free, however, the celiac disease Tissue Transglutaminase tTG-IgA test must be done after you've been eating lots of gluten for around 6 weeks. This way you could salvage the results of your tTG-IgA test, as long as you were eating lots of gluten beforehand.
