I am the unfortunate owner of a few warts on my finger that have proven extremly stubborn in their demise. They keep spreading instead of dying. So, I decided after trying many little odd techniques and some store bought methods, to take myself down to the dermatologist and see what could be done. Normally I would not have because of; A-no insurance, B-don't trust doctors, C-hospitals make me sick (nauseous sick). But, I've got to think about the baby, don't want baby to get warts since he will be 50% my DNA and suseptabel. My hubby has insurance that covers our little family and I'm gonna rip these warts off my finger if someone else doesn't. They are UGLY!!!!

So, Valley Medical seems to have one dermatologist, which may be the only one in town of a population of 30-60 thousand (census says 60 thou). So far this dermatologist is freezing the suckers off quite nicley. Had my first session and froze the four warts really good, hurt like heck but I'm so happy they are suffering! :D Got another session in 3 weeks, hopefully I can keep the bandaid or a glove on when changing baby's diapers (wouldn't want any warts on the poor little guy's bum :( I would just cry.)

If anyone has skin issues and is wondering about a dermatologist, so far I do recommend Barbera Arnsen at Valley Medical. Got a good personality and very attentive to the pain issue and didn't push me to have pain killers when freezing the warts and there were a lot of them on one finger. Since I'm pregnant I'm opting out of pain killers and anything taken that could have gluten in it orally as expected.

      Daughter recently diagnosed with Celiac and I am questioning my results...

      By Beverage · Posted

      As Scott suggests, look into dermatitis herpetiformis. Also the rash there could be from SIBO small intestinal bacterial overgrowth or candida. If your regular doc won't investigate those possibilities, consider going to a naturopathic doc or integrative medicine doc.

      The forms of vitamins really mattered for me, maybe not for everyone but very much for me. Learned so much here. This b12, recommended by @Ennis-TX has really helped me since diagnose.  I can tell when i run out that i don't feel as good. LIQUIDHEALTH Vitamin B12 Methylcobalamin Liquid Drops with Sublingual Hydroxocobalamin - Boost Energy, Support Immune System, Improve Memory & Concentration - Vegan, Sugar Free, Non-GMO (2 Pack) https://a.co/d/c3cxXt7   i also had RLS, one of my few noticeable symptoms before diagnosis. It rears up when I slack off the supplements or drink wine. I found 2 of these a day keeps it at bay, get it very rarely now: Limited-time deal: ANDREW LESSMAN Circulation & Vein Support for Healthy Legs 60 Capsules - High Bioactivity Diosmin, Butcher's Broom, Visibly Reduces Swelling & Discomfort in Feet, Ankles, Calves, Legs https://a.co/d/7int9i9   I also take the procapslabs.com b complex, it has the methyl forms, which makes a difference for me: ANDREW LESSMAN High Potency B-Complex 180 Capsules - with High Levels of Folate Complex & Biotin, Promotes Cellular Growth, Energy, Immune Function, Detoxification, Fat Metabolism & More https://a.co/d/4fkAmFx   I also take extra thiamine, in form benfotiamine, as recommended by @knitty kitty which tremendously helped asthma.

      Toddler Diagnosis?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your son has two positive blood tests for celiac disease, plus a positive biopsy for it...why hasn't your doctor diagnosed him with celiac disease, which is the most likely diagnosis based on the test results you shared? The next step should be a gluten-free diet, which your doctor already recommended.

      My bone structure is disintegrating and I’m having to have my teeth removed

      I am glad to hear you are not taking acid blocking meds as they increase gut PH which inhibits mineral absorption which, in turn, often causes the body to rob it's own bones of the calcium it needs for various metabolic processes. I was asking about that because acid reflux is very common in the celiac community.
