Hi Heinrish,

If you plan to get tested for celiac disease you need to keep eating gluten until all the testing is done.  They do a blood antibodies test first and then later  a endoscopy.  It's important to keep eating gluten each day or the tests won't be accurate.

Your symptoms could be caused by celiac disease IMHO.  One thing that may help right now is to stop eating all dairy and remove sugar and carbs from your diet.  Except for say 1 slice of wheat bread daily to keep the antibodies active.

Ask for the full celiac disease antibodies test panel.  Often the doctors do only the ttg screening tests and it doesn't catch all cases.  If you search for celiac and doctor and your area name you may find a doctor who knows about celiac disease testing.  It helps to find a doctor who has some experience.

the greasy yellow stool is called steatorrhea and that's when your intestines aren't absorbing the fats from your food FYI. That's the number one way parents catch it in their babies

      Thank you both for your input! trents: yes I completely agree, it's simple anatomy. The walk-in doctor I saw even said to me, "you cannot get exposure or get sick if it only got in your respiratory system" to which I replied, "If I inhaled it, it's in the mucous I swallow that leads to my gut." I was honestly baffled I had to explain that to her. Thanks for your comments! Scott Adams: Thanks for your advice, yes I agree I think that's ultimately what I have to do especially while times are getting tougher in this current economy! Hopefully I find something new and equitable or better, in a quick manner! Please send prayers and best wishes for me to find a new job quickly, I wore the N95 masks today...

      Parent-to-parent, I hear your exhaustion and worry loud and clear – what you’re describing goes far beyond typical toddler troubles. Your daughter’s screaming night pain, terrible bloating, stalled growth, and constant infections are textbook red flags for celiac disease or another serious gluten-related condition. While her blood test came back negative, there are critical reasons not to rule it out yet. First, celiac tests are notoriously unreliable in kids under 3 – their tiny immune systems often don’t produce enough antibodies to register on standard blood work, especially if she wasn’t eating consistent gluten beforehand (which you mentioned was a struggle). Her iron deficiency alone is...

      Can you post what blood tests were done specifically for celiac disease, the results and reference ranges if available? If her gluten intake was reduced prior to the blood draw it certainly could result in false negatives on some tests. There is also the possibility that she has NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity).
