Stool Question


KayJay

Recommended Posts

My dd just turned 3 and doesn't really have any symptoms of Celiac. I'm the one in the family with it. Recently her stools have looked like they have big clumps of steak fat in them. I know that is TMI sorry about that. But I was wondering if any of your kids have had that and it turned out to be a sign of celiac. She is growing right on track and all that.

Thanks

I am a big newbie here, I have never seen that, but it is my understanding that celiac often leads to fatty stools. I have never heard it described like that though. I am sure others will have more info.

Along the same lines as the fatty stool, I have been finding blood in my stools, and was wondering if anyone else is having this problem? And/or if anyone knows what is causing it, or what is wrong with my body! Thanks!

I was reading about aspartame and it said aspartame can cause blood to be in the stools...and a huge list of other symptoms <_<

Since you have it, I would talk to her peditrician about whether she should be tested if she has not been yet. My dd did not show most of her obvious signs until she was closer to 5 yrs old, although she did have strange things going on with her and since we are unaware of any celiac's in the family, we were not looking for the signs. I too have heard of the fatty stool issue with celiac. My dd has what I considered to be fatty but it's not like you describe.

Before my son was diagnosed this year , His BM did have those same signs.. It was almost always constant.. And smelly.. I would tell your child's Ped. The disease is genetic. And its always better to find out now then later.. Good luck.

      No! Do not start the gluten free diet until you know whether or not you will be having an endoscopy/biopsy to verify the blood antibody test results. Starting gluten free eating ahead of either form of diagnostic testing can invalidate the results. You don't want to allow the villous lining of the small bowel to experience healing ahead of testing by removing gluten.

      We offer a ton of recipes here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/ and have done some articles on fast food places, but keep in mind that eating out is a common source of gluten contamination: https://www.celiac.com/search/?q=fast food&quick=1&type=cms_records2 Many colleges now offer allergen-friendly, and sometimes gluten-free options in their student cafeterias: https://www.celiac.com/search/?&q=colleges&type=cms_records2&quick=1&search_and_or=and&sortby=relevancy PS - Look into GliadinX, which is a sponsor here, but many studies have been done on it which show that it may break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines.

      Thank you! What do you recommend in the next 7 weeks until I see my Doctor?  Just start my Gluten free diet?

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.
