My one year old had her biopsy yesterday..she was pretty sleepy most of the day..you could tell her throat was sore since her cry was hoarse sounding...last night you could hear her breathing it didn't sound like she was having trouble but it was loud breathing..this morning she woke up covered in very watery stool..it was all over..and she is coughing quite a lot..her discharge papers just say that vomiting is common up to 24 hours but not anything about this....im waiting to call the dr when the office opens but im pretty concerned..is this common???

Glad your calling the doctor this morning. I think a bit of a sore throat is common but the D needs to be asked about. Wonder if they somehow glutened her during or after the procedure?

I hope she is feeling better soon and the doctor is able to help or set your mind at ease.

I never did a biopsy so I have no personal experience there... I just wanted to send her my best wishes. I hope she is feeling better as the day goes on.

Thank you! Still waiting on a dr call back but still not feeling so great :(

Her Dr called me back he doesn't seem to think its related to the procedure its self but maybe she had a bit for a nasty reaction to the medication they gave to to go to sleep..we will monitor it and call back if it gets worse ect..

      If you were off gluten for two months that would have been long enough to invalidate the celiac blood antibody testing. Many people make the same mistake. They experiment with the gluten free diet before seeking formal testing. Once you remove gluten from the diet the antibodies stop being produced and those that are already in circulation begin to be removed and often drop below detectable levels. To pursue valid testing for celiac disease you would need to resume gluten consumption equivalent to the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread daily for at least two weeks, preferably longer. These are the most recent guidelines for the "gluten challenge". Without formal testing there is no way to distinguish between celiac disease and gluten sensitivity since their symptoms overlap. However, celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the small bowel lining, not true of gluten sensitivity. There is no test available for gluten sensitivity so celiac disease must first be ruled out. By the way, elevated liver enzymes was what led to my celiac diagnosis almost 25 years ago.

      Then it does not seem to me that a gluten-related disorder is at the heart of your problems, unless that is, you have refractory celiac disease. But you did not answer my question about how long you had been eating gluten free before you had the blood antibody test for celiac disease done.

      My genetic test results have arrived - I’m homozygous for DQB1*02, meaning I have HLA-DQ2. I’ve read that this is one of the genes most strongly associated with celiac disease, and my symptoms are very clear. I’m relieved that the results finally arrived, as I was getting quite worried since my symptoms have been getting worse. Next step, blood test. What do these results imply? What should I tell my family? I’m concerned that this genetic predisposition might also affect other family members.

      Two months. In extreme situations like this where it’s clearly a smoking gun? I’m in LA so went to a very big hospital for pcp and gi and nutritionist

      So far 3 months in - worsening symptoms. I have had the worst constipation in my life and I am primarily eating naturally gluten-free foods like potatoes, eggs, salad with homemade dressing, corn tortillas, etc. I hate gluten-free bread and pasta so I don't eat it. Occasionally I eat gluten-free almond flour crackers. As stated in the post, I don't have any vitamin deficiency. I was already tested.
