Hi, I am new, my 17 year old daughter has suffered from all kinds of GI issues and no energy. we finally determined she has Celiacs thru testing. shes relieved we have answers but now shes scared as well.
anyone with guidance on newly diagnosed Celiac would be helpful.

Thank you Sharks 41 for joining us, and we will do our best to provide answers and resources to help your daughter adjust to her new lifestyle. I am sure it is a relief to finally have a diagnosis to work with, and she is definitely not alone! Dr Brad West who commented above, and his wife Lauren who is a well established nutritionist and author, are a great resource!

do u think seeing a gastro is needed right now?
sounds like the best treatment is removing gluten totally. reading about hidden gluten in everything.
got this Gluten free app for me and her to scan barcodes.-
Check out Dr. Lisa shaver in Portland Oregon who is an expert on celiac, gluten sensitivity and wheat allergies. Also Labs such as Cyrex in Phoenix and resources for how to stay gluten-free. There are many hidden exposures and problems such as cutting boards, toasters, knives, shampoo etc.. Gastroenterologist Are needed occasionally if there has not been a positive biopsy yet, especially.

My sister was recently diagnosed and she’s currently struggling with low hemoglobin and chronic vomiting, she just had a procedure (cauterize) of a small laceration of the small intestine and hernia of esophagus- procedure was done 6 days ago and she continues vomiting. Does anyone experience this?

Hello Ruthana I am very sorry to hear about your sister and the trouble she is having! These symptoms are not uncommon in Scleroderma patients but the surgeon should be following her closely and managing these symptoms. Can I ask where your sister is located? Different states have different laws with regard to plant based natural medications which could be very helpful in relieving her symptoms.

Hello Eric, thank you for replying to my post. My sister is located in Los Angeles, Ca what natural medication could be helpful in relieving her symptoms??
-
One option that may give her relief is medical cannabis. In California, Cannabis based medications are legal, and we actually work with a group of licensed pharmacists who provide free consultations to patients. I don’t know if they can service Los Angeles area, but they can definitely consult her on her options. Their information is available here https://services.weheal.org/medone/

It can definitely help with the nausea and vomiting!
