Has anyone visited any of the pediatric experts at the Columbia University Celiac Center? We need a real expert for our youngest daughter and while I know that Dr. Peter Green is highly sought after, I don't know a lot about his pediatric experts.

Hi there,

Sorry your little girls is having such a difficult time. I don't know Peter Green personally, but I heard him speak at the Celiac Disease Foundation conference in LA in April. He seemed wonderful, knows the disease as well as anyone can at this point, and seems to care deeply. I would feel safe taking my children to him.

If you are considering travelling, also consider Children's Hospital LA for Dr. Michelle Pietzak. She is excellent.

Thinking of you all!

      @trents You're right, thanks for pointing that out. On @somethinglikeolivia comment regarding potential ingesting or cross contamination; there is a product marketed in Australia as "GluteGuard" which is designed for just this scenario. It is not a defence for and is not recommended for use by full-blown celiac disease but, it helps those with GI. I'll be reading slower in future so I don't skim over the subject matter. Cheers.

      @N00dnutt, as OP explained earlier, she had a gastroscopy done earlier while she had been eating plenty of gluten for months. It was negative despite strong positive antibody scores.

      The best way to determine positively is to undergo a Gastroscope. Your Endocrinologist will assess the condition of your "Villi". These tenticles are what extract the nutrient from what we ingest. The Protein in Gluten is like acid to these tenticles.
