Knowledgable General Practitioner At Kaiser San Diego


BelovedchildofJC

Recommended Posts

My boyfriend was FINALLY diagnosed celiac this past Monday after 22 years of unpleasantness. So far we have been less than thrilled with the care and involvement of his current GP. We continue to be brushed off and have been told to simply avoid gluten because it irritates the small intestine and to be on our way. While we are both able to research on our own we do feel that having a good gastroenterologist and GP will be very improtant from here on out.

That being said, I suppose my question is this...

Does anyone know of a good General Practitioner and/or Gastroenterologist located at one of the San Diego CA Kaiser Perminente locations?

THANKS!

      Welcome to celiac.com, @Teaganwhowantsanexpltion! Joint pain is a well-established symptom of celiac disease. But joint pain may also be caused by other medical problems such as rheumatoid arthritis, chronic fatigue syndrome, etc. Make sure you share these concerns with your physician so that he or she can initiate testing or make referrals to specialists. As someone with celiac disease it is very important that you be consistent with the gluten free diet.

      In the thread I linked to above, one of our sponsors here sells gluten-free nuts, dried fruits, etc (a coupon that might work for you there is GF20) https://www.tierrafarm.com/

      I’m really sorry you’re dealing with this, and what you’re describing is very real—even if other people can’t see it. Many kids and teens with celiac disease or other autoimmune conditions can have chronic joint and body pain, fatigue, and flares that come and go, which is exactly why it can look “fine one day and awful the next.” That doesn’t mean you’re faking anything. You deserve to be believed and supported, especially at school and at home. It may help to talk with a gastroenterologist or rheumatologist who understands autoimmune pain in teens, and to let a trusted adult help advocate for accommodations when you need them. Wanting to feel like a normal kid makes complete sense—and you’re not alone in feeling this way.
