Can anyone recommend a GOOD doctor in TX: San Antonio, Austin, Dallas, Abeline? I live in San Angelo and today had a VERY bad experience with the GI I had been referred to here (more details in my post in the pre-diagnosis forum). We're willing do drive to find a GOOD doctor that actually KNOWS about Celiac Disease and LISTENS to patients and takes them seriously. If anyone has any recommendations/experiences with doctors within a 4 hour radius from here, I'd love to hear about them! Thanks so much!

Hi, I'm not anywhere near TX, but I wanted to suggest if you don't get any answers here, seek out your local gluten-free support group and e-mail them. They usually have liasions with drs that know about celiac disease.

Thank you! I'm actually seeking out groups now. There isn't one near here, but I've scouted out the web sites of one in San Antonio and one in Dallas. I think the one in SA looks promising and I'm going to get ahold of them. My husband and I will be there in November anyway, so we'll stay another day or two if it means getting in with a competent doctor!

      Is this celiac?

      By trents · Posted

      But you didn't answer my question. When you consume gluten, is there an identifiable reaction within a short period of time, say a few hours?

      You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not very common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/

      Help I’m cross contaminating myself,

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am only wondering why you would need to cut out rice? I've never heard of rice being any issue in those with DH.

      Does anyone here also have Afib

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      My mother has celiac disease and was diagnosed with Afib around 8 months ago. She's 81 and around 2 months ago had ablation therapy done, which is a very common procedure to treat this, and has been out of Afib 95% of the time since then. Apparently the full effects of this treatment don't kick in for 90 days, so the doctors expect her recovery to possibly reach 100%. Be sure to discuss this with your doctor.

      The discovery of the vitamin D receptor in multiple immune cell lineages, such as monocytes, dendritic cells, and activated T cells credits vitamin D with a novel role in modulating immunological functions and its subsequent role in the development or prevention of autoimmune diseases.  The Implication of Vitamin D and Autoimmunity: a Comprehensive Review
