Yes, I have seen a gastroenterologist. They confirmed I have celiac disease but it feels like it is much more than just that. I think I may go for a second opinion. It just feels like there is more going on than just that.

@cmdavis88 It never hurts to get a second opinion, and it can be very reassuring to know you are on the right track. Make sure that the second opinion is from a really excellent gastroenterologist.

I know very little about celiac overall, just that it is caused by wheat. My son had it when he was a toddler getting his second-year teeth. At that time we were pre-internet so I researched everywhere I could to find info and sure enough, some children do get a form of celiac when teething. The poor little thing, if I didn't get to his diaper right away he would end up with raw skin, and the stench would knock you over.
