I was diagnosed with Celiac only a couple months ago and live in Utah. My current doctors seem to have no knowledge about celiac disease or just plain don't care. Does anyone know of any doctors in Utah that specialize in allergies/immune system problems. Thanks.

Have you checked out Open Original Shared Link ? I get their email updates even thought I don't live in Utah. We visit Utah alot due to family being there, and I am always looking for new restaurant or bakeries. But they have had Doctors talk at some of their meetings. Maybe you could contact someone from this group and they would have a suggestion. Good luck.

I'm not sure exactly where you are in Utah, and I wouldn't recommend my doctor. (I love him but he's not exactly celiac savvy.) If you're up to a jaunt to Sandy though I highly recommend a stop at Eleanor's Bake Shop which is 100% gluten free. Not kidding, the cupcakes I've gotten there are the best I've eaten in my life, hands down, and I've only been gluten free since January.

There's a support group in Utah county in Provo the first Tuesday of every month that I keep almost going to. Almost. Since there isn't a July meeting maybe I'll finally make it in August. Anyway, my point is that you may find some good recommendations from members there if you're in the Utah county area. Let me know and I'll point you to them if I need to.

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.

      Is this celiac?

      By Beverage · Posted

      Exactly which blood tests were done? There are a few different ones and some docs don't do them all. Also, your results and reference ranges for each?

      Thankyou so much for your words.Its a hard battle when a supposed well known hospital whose celiac " specialist " has down played me because my colon looks fine and put it in my medical and so pcp doesn't take seriously. In their eyes we all carry that gene.Im having alot of bad days trying to be positive because of it.

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.
