    Not yet. It is H Pylori. I meet with my GI doctor tomorrow morning and have allergy testing by another doctor in the afternoon. So, hopefully they can shed some light on this.

    I found something in the itunes U you might be interested in. I searched for Eosinophilic Esophagitis. It came up with a lecture called pediatric grand rounds; Eosinophic Esophagitis: Diagnosis and Management. It was for doctors and med school students at U of Arizona so, much of it was over my head but they did mention blood. It is worth looking into.

    Thank you Laura. I have been looking for information. There is not as much as the Celiac community. I am getting allergy tested on Thursday and have another appointment with my GI doctor to go over the medications for the bacterial infection. Hopefully he can shed more light on it. He suggested oral steroids but I am not too keen on using steroids. Have you...

    I thought I had Celiac because I have a rash on my wrist and my thighs that I have had for 4+ months which kind of looks like DH from the pictures I have seen. I had asked my GI doctor and he wasn't sure, as he is not a dermatologist. I had the celiac panel blood test and an endoscopy. I tested negative for both for Celiac. I tested positive for Eosinophilic...

    Thank you for that explanation. The doctor called me today and he said I have EE and a bacterial infection in my stomach. He wants me to take some antibiotics but I haven't heard of which ones because I am also alergic to Penicilin.

    I had been wondering if I have Celiac Disease. I have had terrible acid reflux for about 2 years now. I also have had what looks like DH (but am not sure) which now looks like it's subsided. My bother (who is also a doctor) did an organic acid test on me which came back with high levels of yeast. He put me on a wheat, sugar, and dairy free diet for 6 months...

    I continued eating corn products, such as grits. In either form I ate corn. So, I think it is fine.

    I have had very bad acid reflux for the past 2 years. My brother, a D.O. in Maine, gave me an organic yeast test. It came back with very high levels of yeast. He put me on a gluten, sugar, and dairy, yeast elimination diet for 6 months. It was basically a vegetable (except mushrooms-due to the fungus), meat, and rice diet. It was hard to begin with but, I...

    ARCHIVED Type Of Doctors - Sterling, VA

    Cybele posted a topic in Doctors

    I am in the process of doing the gluten challenge. I do not have a GI doctor per se. I have not made an appointment for testing yet. Could I go to my regular family doctor for this, or would it be better to use a Alergist or find an GI doctor?

    First of all, thank you for this site and forum. What a great resource. Second, I have a suspicion that I may have Celiac Disease. About 2 years ago, I started having problems with my digestion (mainly with proteins) in the form of acid reflux. For awhile I was able to deal with it with over the counter drugs. But, then it became chronic. I am a tour director...
