Does anyone else have a child with soy, dairy,egg white,citrus (=tomato),nut,bean,honey allergies? My son eats about 5 different foods. Have him on a childs medical food shake for extra nutrients. He eats 5 meals a day and is ALWAYS HUNGRY. I am suppose to rotate food but that is really hard. Now the Dr. thinks he might also have a rice sensitivity...

I am really sorry to hear what you are going through. My son has always just had a peanut allergy, and recently he was positive for an initial screening for gluten intolerence. I'm sorry, I don't have much advice, just compassion and a hope that things get better for you and your child.

Actually our 15-month old son seems to be suffering from the same things (peas, soy, eggs, gluten, lactose, etc...) and to top it off he was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes three weeks ago so it is a real challenge to figure out what to feed him. Feel free to email me to swap suggestions and ideas. Best, Alex

The only thing I can suggest is trying to write down ALL the foods you can think of (apples, bananas, millet, corn, avocados, coconut, chicken, fish... walk through the grocery store with a notebook if it helps) that don't violate the intolerances, and try them on him - and again after a few months if he balks the first time.

(BTW, I'm curious about your citrus(=tomatoes) statement... tomatoes and citrus are not in the same family, so that statement surprises me... Can you help me understand?)

You know, even though they aren't in the same family, I group citrus and tomato together too. DS reacts the same to both of them. :unsure:

;) i can help there too---tomatoes are a vegetable, but also considered a fruit--they are acid as are so many of the fruits--there is acid in many of the citrus fruits--so therefore, you could classify them in the same way :rolleyes: now--did that make sense, i'm not sure it does to me :lol: deb

I wouldn't group them as they're different botanically, though I'm not disputing that someone can have problems with both. ;-) Tomatoes are a different family - acid content isn't necessarily the common factor - many other fruits/vegetables are acidic and related to neither of those. (For example, apples and apricots have a lower pH than tomatoes.) But I would note that since tomatoes are part of the nightshade family, it's worth being careful about potatoes, eggplant, cherries, sweet peppers, and petunias, as they're in the same botanical family.

My 4.5 year old has had severe food allergies to all protein (legumes, all meats, nuts, dairy, egg, soy, etc.) since he was 4 months old and he was diagnosed with Celiac on top of it in September. It has been a hard road and some days are better than others. He eats lots of corn/rice pasta, potato in all shapes and forms and tons of fruits and veggies. It's hard and I feel for you but it can be done! My son has also been on Neocate formula since 2 years old. It's expensive but so worth it because he has been in the 97th % in weight since birth. He's a big boy and nobody would guess that he has all of these problems. Good luck.

      Welcome to the forum, @SuzanneL! Which tTG was that? tTG-IGA? tTG-IGG? Were there other celiac antibody tests run from that blood draw? Was total IGA measured? By some chance were you already cutting back on gluten by the time the blood draw was taken or just not eating much? For the celiac antibody tests to be accurate a person needs to be eating about 10g of gluten daily which is about 4-6 pieces of bread.

      I've recently received a weak positive tTG, 6. For about six years, I've been sick almost everyday. I was told it was just my IBS. I have constant nausea. Sometimes after I eat, I have sharp, upper pain in my abdomen. I sometimes feel or vomit (bile) after eating. The doctor wanted me to try a stronger anti acid before doing an endoscopy. I'm just curious if these symptoms are pointing towards Celiac Disease?

      I'm sorry to hear about what you're going through. It must be really frustrating and uncomfortable. Have you talked to your healthcare provider about these sudden sweating episodes? It might be helpful to discuss this with them to rule out any other underlying issues or to see if there are specific strategies or treatments that can help manage this symptom. Additionally, staying hydrated and wearing breathable clothing may provide some relief.

      I am not sure where you are going, but we have articles in this section which may be helpful: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-travel/ 
    • trents
      There are supplements available that can help breakdown minor amounts of gluten such as you might experience with cross contamination when dining out and you order gluten free items from a menu. But they will not help when larger amounts of gluten are consumed. One such product that many on this forum attest to as having helped them in this regard is GliadinX. The inventor of GlidinX is one our forum sponsors so you should know that.
