Guest guest Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 Hi,I am rejoining this group.Currently I am l looking for an AMA Medicaid approved doctor familiar and good at testing for dermatitus herpetiformis for my mother. She is with Kaiser, however I am uncertain on how up on things her doctor is--and would like a second opinion. If we could find a good DH Kaiser specialist, so much the better if that is possible.We took her off most gluten this last two months and both her skin and memory has improved immensely. However my sister the nurse doesn't accept that gluten could be a problem for our mother.Now Mom's psychiatrist wants her to do a gluten challenge to check for celiac. I think however the DH skin test is more likely to show what she's got since DH people often don't show with the blood test or the endoscopy.Thanks for your help ahead of time! We are here in Los Gatos by the way...Bea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
