That she needed to be tested for other automimmune disorders?!? Her pedi said he would do some research and figre out the next step...whatever that means! Gah so aggravating I don't know what to think or do! Her igg was greater then 100...anyone have any ideas whats in store as far as more testing

Tell the ped to contact the univ of Chicago celiac Center. They have an email on the site? Or call.the head is a ped GI. Let him fax them your info to look at. I think they would help.

All I can say is, it happens.  There are a bunch of people on this board alone who are positive in one test and not in another when it comes to celiac disease. It hits everyone different with different test results and different symptoms. Some have nerves affected, some have skin affected, some have growth affected, some have intestines badly damaged and some don't...It's just the way it is.

 

Have her go gluten-free. It can't hurt except for the extra hassle it will cause you in food preparation. Gluten isn't good for anyone. It's just a food of convenience with a tasty texture. She's so young now that if you switched her over now, she'll never develop a taste for it. Make her gluten-free now. Keep a journal of food and symptoms. By all means keep looking into other causes, like the high TSH, but treat her for the positive tests that she's had.... The doctors don't know everything - in my experience they are correct barely half of the time.

 

Best wishes.

      The Happy Tart review

      Was the card itself lost or just the record or both?

      The Happy Tart review

      We were flabergasted that the owner would not acknowledge a $50 e-gift card I purchased for my celiac wife. My wife tried to open it in the store and was informed there had been a system change and they could not find the record. No worries, she was told, just talk to management. Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally...

      Ibuprofen

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can...

      Ibuprofen

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce.

Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally informs me there have been "bad actors", so she can't make good on this lost gift card. In other words, she accused me of lying and committing fraud... over $50! Please be careful with your orders and purchases here.

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can damage the stomach lining if you eat it too often. Especially if your stomach lining is already compromised. Ibuprofen inhibits the body's ability to rebuild the stomach's protective mucosal lining. That's why it can cause peptic ulcers. As strange as it may sound, low level irritation/inflammation stimulates the body to rebuild the stomach lining. There are two steps in this rebuilding process known as COX 1 and COX 2. Ibuprofen represses both COX 1 and COX 2. Celecoxcib, a prescription anti inflammatory, inhibits only COX 2, making it less likely to cause damage to the gut lining.

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen  I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce.   Something is making my pain so much worse  I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs.  Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever would do. I'm fairly new to this. Whatever is going on seems to be worsening  Do people get a withdrawal effect from gluten?  It's extremely painful 😖  I'll post that question or research on the site  Thank you everyone for responding
