Looking For New Pediatric Doctor

Does anyone live in the Baltimore Maryland area that knows of a good Peditrician? I'm not comfortable with my sons current Dr. I had to push him to have my son tested. He was in total denial that Eric could have Celiac that he didn't want to test him. I had to force the issue. He kept saying it was all in his head and needed to see a therapist. Unfortunatly his test came back positive for glutin sensitivity, Hes not a Celiac but thats not to say if it could develope later on if he doesn't follow the proper diet. Hes been very sick for a while without any answers. They've put him thru so much its unreal. I've read enough on this forum to know that hes not alone in this some Drs can be real idiots. He even made the coment that this was beyond his expertise. If someone knows a good one or someone i can contact to find one that would be great...

Thanks Jan

Hi and welcome. I've been in your situation, and it is soooo frustrating and painful when it is your child. I don't live in your area, but you could click on Site Index (to your left there right under the word Search in black letters ) and find a category on "Doctors recommended by celacs' and maybe find someone there. Take care and I hope he feels better soon. Poor guy sounds like he's been through quite enough, and mom too, right? Well, there are a lot of great people on this forum who have helped me so much in the past couple of months, so feel free to ask any questions, because they know their stuff. :)

      Sometimes celiacs can also have other things like lactose intolerance which is fairly common. Also research fodmap foods, it's quite complicated but there are some other foods which can cause digestive issues. For me it's too many onions and garlic.

      You may be reacting to some of the ingredients used to imitate gluten products. I eat Amy's Chilli quite often with no problems. When I eat Bush's chilli beans or Hormel Chilli with the same ingredient list, I get heartburn.  Break out the alka seltzer.   Barillo spaghetti has CORN FLOUR, RICE FLOUR, MONO AND DIGLYCERIDES. Udi's White bread Ingredients - water, tapioca starch, brown rice flour, canola oil, dried egg whites, sugar, tapioca maltodextrin, tapioca syrup, sorghum flour, less than 2% of: rice starch, sorghum grain, flaxseed meal,  gum blend (xanthan gum, sodium alginate, guar gum), apple cider vinegar, apple fiber, molasses, salt, amaranth flour, teff flour, yeast, cultured brown rice, locust bean gum, enzymes Chobani Greek Yogurt Cultured nonfat milk, cane sugar, water, natural flavors, fruit pectin, guar gum, locust bean gum, vanilla extract, lemon juice concentrate.

      My TTG was 167 one year ago. Recently had it retested one month ago and it went down to 16. I only recently had an endoscopy done as I was pregnant within the last year. I did not eat gluten prior to this endoscopy as I get very sick. Prior to obtaining the biopsies, the endoscopy said “ diffuse moderately erythematous mucosa to the second part of the duodenum without bleeding.” However, the biopsy came back negative. I assume it’s a false negative as I have also had genetic testing to confirm celiac. However, what would cause the inflammation to the second part of the duodenum and continued positive blood markers if the intestines have healed?

      Thank you for direction.  Eating out is a concern though we rarely do, but I'm prepared now.
