There's a Celiac Treatment Center in Sunnyvale Ca. Maybe you could contact them and see if they know of anyone in your area?

I saw Dr Treyzon at Cedars Sinai, he was a very caring and knowledgeable gastroenterologist, I wasn't there for specifically celiac though but I would be confident in consulting with him about it.

Or what about these people? Open Original Shared Link

i really appreciate the help I am still so sick and they keep running more tests but i think its just the damage from the celiacs that is causing the problems.

There is a celiac research center at UCSD. Open Original Shared Link They should be able to refer you to a clinic or doctor who specializes in treating celiac.

Whoops I see you already got the link to Warren. I bet Dr. Kaganoff knows a decent celiac doctor who is taking patients if you ask.

I'd concur with sklyark, I'm sure they would be willing to recommend someone good in that area.

Dr. Mleynek in Huntington Beach is very knowledgable. One of the posters here on the board loves him. He had horrible bedside manner with me, but I think I caught him on an off day because my friend has always had great experiences with him. Not sure if that's too far for you but he knows an awful lot.

      Newly Diagnosed

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @NCalvo822! Ditto to what Scott said. But let me ask you, what method or methods did your physician use to diagnose you as having celiac disease? Normally, it is a two step process. The first step involves a blood test that looks for certain antibodies produced by celiac disease. The second step involves an upper GI scoping and biopsy of the small bowel lining to check for the damage to the lining typically caused by celiac disease. This second step is used as confirmation of the blood work when the antibody testing turns up some positives. Occasionally, positive antibody tests scores can be caused by things besides celiac disease. Which of these were done or did you have both done before the doc declared you to have celiac disease?

      Thanks for sharing this info! Frustrating to see companies who haven't used wheat as an ingredient start to do so! https://blistex.com/product/five-star-lip-protection/

      Frustrated

      I followed the Autoimmune Protocol Diet to get my symptoms calmed down and my nutrients up.   I know what a struggle it is.  You're why I'm here. Smoothing out some rough parts of your journey makes my journey worthwhile. Here's the tests you can get for Celiac antibodies...

      This Roller Coaster Ride Needs to Stop

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Ginger38, I'm with you!   I could not take Metformin.  I got so sick, constant diarrhea, abdominal cramps, extreme highs and lows, no energy, weight loss, muscle wasting.  Just horrible.   Metformin is known to block thiamine absorption.  Talk to your doctor about thiamine deficiency.  It's called Gastrointestinal Beriberi.  My doctor didn't recognize thiamine deficiency outside of alcoholism.  So I took over the counter Thiamine in the form Tetrahydrofurfuryl Disulfide and felt health improvement within an hour.  Magical!   I followed the Autoimmune Protocol diet to get my stomach calmed down and control my blood glucose levels without medication. Being diabetic, we lose more thiamine through our kidneys, and the Metformin on top of it and malabsorption from Celiac.  Talk to your doctor soon!
