Hi, I'll be seeing Dr. Fasano at the U of MD in August, but I am located in DC and need to find a good GI doc who is knowledgeable about celiac and the gluten spectrum. Any suggestions? Thank you!

Metropolitan scoped me (endo and colon) a couple years ago, and scope-wise they are very good. The doctor who did my endo could tell just by looking then and there, live, that I probably had celiac disease. I tried following up more with him and others in the practice, later, but was not really successful. There are not many doctors of any kind who know a LOT about Celiac disease. There just aren't, I'm sorry to say. Even my GP who first suspected celiac disease in me could not explain how the gluten reaction works.

If you find anyone with willingness and knowledge to impart, please do share.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
