You beat me to the punch! I was just about to post about this....I'm so excited! I know it's not as good as having a whole Oprah tv show but it's better then nothing! I think you may be able to sign up for a three day or week trial for free on XM site but not certain about that. That's how I listened to the Celiac story on Martha Stewart's Sirius show for free.

p.s. okay you can sign up for a three day free trial. I just did it, it's easy and I use a 'trash' e-mail address that I just empty out every so often. I use it just for a reason such as this so my real addresses don't get crammed with unwanted ads. I figure if Oprah is finally doing something for us, we'd better show our appreciation to her or her staff at her radio show at least.

That is pretty ironic that Dr. Green is on an Oprah produced program. A year or two ago, the satelite sisters, who had an oprah magazine column got themselves into a stink in the celiac community for something dumb they said They made some comments about the parents of celiac children which of course upset everybody and had them writing into the magazine. Just funny that this segment is also an oprah production :)

Woo hoo! I've signed up for my free trial, and I'm all set. Plus, I just learned that there are archives of the shows so anyone who misses it will be able to catch it later. (With XM, of course)

I must be asking the obvious, but I don't see on the XM site or on the Oprah & Friends' site where it say that Thursday will include a discussion of Celiac. Someone please point me to that. It would be nice to be able to look ahead to what else may be coming, but I just see the "today" and "tomorrow" links.

When I saw the topic of this post I had a panic attack! You see, I listen to Oprah and Friends every day in my car. This past weekend my son brought my XM radio into the house while we were decorating for Christmas, and we never took it back to my car. Soooooooooo I have been without my XM radio and then I see this! I thought for sure that I missed it!

I will be listening for sure!

Thanks for the info!

Dr. Green's assistant is the one who put out the listserv notice about Thursdays show so it should be at the times specified. I can't wait! I'm not even going to answer my business phone from 1-2. It's like Christmas came early for me this year! All this great media exposure in such a short time. I think 2007 will be the year for that Celiac and gluten become household words. Not like everyone will have it but there are more of us that have Celiac than many other well know diseases combined. It's our turn to be in the medical spotlight so to speak!

The times listed in the post above are Eastern. If you follow the oprah.xm link above you'll see a link for Program Schedule. Times are listed in Eastern, but for those who don't want to do the math, there's even a drop-down and you can choose your time zone to adjust the schedule :D

Thanks for asking that question....hehehe, I always assume times listed anywhere reference "my" time zone. I would have missed it! We all know what they say about assuming! But I never learn.

I'm not sure but you may be able to listen in the archive files. I found the interview to be very well done. Dr Green really pushes the biopsy for dx which I don't think necessary if you have positive blood markers for Celaic but like everyone on this board, people can make their own decisions on that matter. He really talked about anemia (yea! that was me) patients who had a hard time getting dx'd if that is their only symptom and he spoke a lot about dental enamel defects and how they are often caused by Celiac as well. He talked about how the med schools here in the US are funded greatly by pharma companies so that's why dcos don't know the currect stats on Celiac as there is no pill for it. He said it was much harder to be on the gluten free diet here than in most of Europe.

After Dr. Green was off Dr. Oz's friend (forgot his name) came on and said that Dr. Oz almost eats gluten free from what he's observed and Dr. Oz said that anyone could probably benefit from eating gluten free as it's very healthy. Knowing my Celiac Mother loves her Snickers and chips I had to laugh at that comment. You can eat a ton of junk and still be gluten free. Dr. Oz also noted that he had never heard that infertility could be caused so that shocked him. He commented that the US is way behind Europe in getting the correct dx for people with Celiac and this is not the first time this has happened. Other conditions have had similar issues. Why does everyone always say we have the best medical care in the US? Do they just mean for cancer since we have more people with cancer than anywhere else on earth? I wonder.

Thanks for the report, Tiffany. I wasn't able to listen to it :)

For anyone who missed the Dr. Peter Green/Dr. Mehmet Oz broadcast, it has already been placed in the archives

I'm sure you'll need to do as Floridanative suggested earlier and sign up at least for the free 3 day trial. That's what I did to be able to listen to the broadcast live.

If I understood correctly, Dr. Green, thought the test was painless/inexpensive enough that he thought it would be worthwhile if the blood test for Celiac became a population test. (I haven't re-listened, did anyone else pick up on that?)

I'm not sure i heard that as there was so much good info but i did hear (i think) that all people w/the dx of IBS should get it done.

As it turns out, I was able to sign up (thanks Judy) and listen to the last 45 munutes of the 7PM show. It was good, I thought.

Dr. Green did say that the disease meets the criteria for widespread testing. He discussed how in parts of Italy, children are routinely tested.

I thought it was interesting that after Dr. Green left, Dr. Roisen and Dr. Oz were still taliking about Celiac, and they both didn't think it was a bad idea for someone with suspicious symptoms to try the gluten-free diet on their own. Dr. Green, while he was still there, said it was better to persue a diagnosis first.

Hi All!

Thank you for the Link to the interview. I don't get XM radio!! Anyway, at the top of the interview, there is a spot to click to "ask Dr. Oz" a question. I thanked him a million times over and asked him to please ask Oprah to do a show on Celiac Disease. If we all write to him, maybe we can get Oprah to do a show!!!!

If Oprah does a show, public awareness will be key!!!! If anyone can make the public aware of celiac disease, it's Oprah! Please write to Dr. Oz AND Oprah too!! (I've been for years!!) THank you!

Dawn

      Welcome to the forum @Tarp! Some more information would be helpful. What is your age? What led you to investigate celiac diagnosis 11 years ago? What were your symptoms then? Do you have osteoporosis/osteopenia? What areas of the spine have been involved with your four surgeries?  As you probably know, celiac disease damages the lining of the small bowel which typically results in malabsorption of vitamins and minerals. This, in turn, can result in bone demineralization and as well as neurological disorders. Because of your spinal surgeries, it might be difficult to sort out what is causing what. Are there nutrient deficiency related neurological problems going on? Are there nerve impingement problems going on from the surgeries? Both? Having said that, it's a pretty safe bet that you would do well to invest in some high potency vitamin and mineral supplementation to address the malabsorption problem. We routinely recommend a high potency B-complex, magnesium glycinate or magnesium citrate (not magnesium oxide), D3 (5000 IU daily) and zinc. Most of these in this list are vital to neurological health. Make sure all are gluten free. Costco's Nature Made and Kirkland Signature products are a good choice and reasonably priced.

      I am at a loss with spine issues. I have had 4 spine surgeries.  These were=all before my celiac diagnosis.  Currently I am dealing with chest pain arm pain and burning with increased weakness in my legs.  I have had bowel incontinence for 6 months.  I had a nuclear stress test and heart issues were ruled out.  I can not get a doctor to listen to me and diagnose me.  I am afraid I will end paralyzed. I had a question of celiac 11 years ago and then was told I did not have it.  Last month it was finally confirmed by biopsy.

      My journey started over 11 years ago. I know this because I recently went to set up an account here and discovered I had set one up 11 years ago, when I first suspected celiac.  Also of note, it began in the US and continued in the UK, so I’ve experienced both countries inability to figure out what is wrong with me.   So, 11 years ago I had major stomach pain, gas, bloating, nerve pain in hands and feet (clear MRI), anxiety, depression, migraines, and this weird gnawing pain in my stomach. PCP said IBS and sent me on my merry way. After chatting with friends, and at their suggestion, I gave up gluten and dairy (actually did a complete elimination diet) with fantastic effects. After I month I reintroduced and was in agony so went back to the PCP. She thought I might be celiac so sent me for full allergy testing and a celiac test. No idea which. This was I’m 2014/2015.  It came back negative. But I’d been eating gluten for three days at that point and had not been told I needed to be eating gluten for the test.  Was told it was IBS. Kept eating gluten.   2018 - by now the gnawing pain was constant.  Figured it might be an ulcer.  Other “IBS” pain and nerve pain. Was finally referred to gastroenterologist who did an endoscopy and biopsies and found chronic gastritis and H.Pylori but no evidence of celiac.  Had a bucketload of antibiotics and the H.Pylori went away (confirmed by breath test).  Alas the pain didn’t.  Figured I didn’t have celiac but the gastritis remained despite clearing up the infection.  Gave up gluten anyway because I felt better off it.  2019 / 2020 - moved to UK, grandmother died, Covid hit. With all this stress I started eating all the gluten  like constantly  everything I missed.  Stomach hurt, but of course it did - I was eating like crap.  Not just gluten, just bad food generally    2023 demanded h.pylori test because I’m convinced if I had it before I might have it again and maybe that’s why I’m in more pain than ever. Fecal test, came back negative.  put on PPIs 2024 - went to the dr because of severe gas pains. They were so bad nothing helped and they were keeping me away at night.  All my previous symptoms are worse than ever and now had stabbing ovary pain. I thought maybe now it’s all due to perimenopause.  Dr doesn’t even examine me.  Just tells me it’s IBS and tells me we will run blood test to rule out other things, just to be safe. Well, my IgA-tTG came back positive (67 0-20 is normal). They ran an EMA test and that too was positive. I finally felt I was getting somewhere. I went to the dr and she told me to quit eating gluten. I said I wanted an endoscopy before I stop eating gluten because that’s what the medical guidelines recommend. She wasn’t too happy about it but referred me to get an endoscopy.  I had one and the took 5 samples from the duodenum (4xD2 and 1 x D1 - whatever that means). Well, results are in and my biopsy was normal.  I am just at a loss now.  I felt so happy to finally have an answer, but now am frustrated.  I know I feel better gluten free and I tend to continue that way, but to have the positive blood tests then receive a negative biopsy (I was eating fully gluten prior to this for years) has just left me feeling …. I don’t know.  Lost!   Thanks for reading this.

      Thank you. I already cut out dairy and eggs because I found out I was having a problem with them. To be honest I’m just getting worn out 😂
