New diagnosis for 3 year old. Help!
The EMA is an older test that isn't run so often any more. I think it was the original test developed to detect celiac disease. It's fairly expensive to run because, if I recall correctly, it requires mammalian organ tissue to execute. But when it is positive, it's a pretty safe bet that there is celiac disease. I would suggest discussing your options... -

There is a growing tendency for physicians to forego the endoscopy... -

Also she has a vitamin d deficiency in addition to the anemia. She also has the rash. It's been a rough road the last year and a half with her behavior and health and I'm relieved to... -

Headaches / Migraines and Hypoglycaemia
If I may put my two cents in here . . . Coffee (caffeine) is a double-edged sword when it comes to headaches. It can relieve them (that's why caffeine is put in many over the counter pain relievers) but it can also cause them - particularly if you consume coffee/tea/soda often and regularly and then are in a situation where you have to go without it...
