Enterolab

Hi. I've some of the Enterolab tests for my son. He's been gluten-free for about 9 months, was doing great but is now having stomachaches again. Also having leg pains again. This had resolved after a few weeks going gluten-free, but now ??? I'm 100% sure he's eating gluten-free (he's terrified of getting glutened). Out of desperation, I've ordered the tests that can tell me about possible gluten in his system, malapsorption and dairy intolerance. Are these accurate tests, or did I just throw away $500? <_< Any advice on what we can expect? Thanks!

I haven't tried Enterolab, but have only heard good things about it.

After initially feeling a lot better, and all my pains going away, I started having a lot of pain again after being gluten free for four months. That is when my other intolerances showed up! Now that my villi had healed quite a bit, my intestines weren't just absorbing the things I could tolerate again, but also the ones I was intolerant to. When I figured out all my intolerances and started avoiding the offending foods, I got better.

So, my guess is, that he might be gluten free, but has other intolerances that cause these problems. Dairy is a likely culprit, but there are many other things that are common problem foods (especially soy).

I have done Enterolab. Just started on the recommended diet 9 days ago. Tests showed gluten and casien intolerance (soy, eggas and yeast were negative), both genes for celiac disease, and no damage done to intestines. I too was warry of the tests but a lot of people have nothing but good things to say about it

I just got results back from Enterlab and basically it just tells you if you are gluten intolerent which if you were sick before a gluten-free diet and now after a gluten-free diet you are not sick...you may have concluded that. I was eagerly waiting for the results and managed to get on a phone with a woman who know Dr. Fine and also know Dr. Peter Greene? who just wrote a comprehensive book on Celica Diease (the Hidden Epidemic). She likes Dr. Fine but had indicated tha there was just not solid scientific backing on stool testing. (meaning: Is everyone who is tested diagnoised with gluten intolerence?) IS there anyone you have heard of that has gotten a negative result back from the lab?

Sorry if I sound negative...I am a bit frustarated now! I am having the same issues with actually KNOWING whether it is an intolerence or Celiac...for insurance reasons and my child's pediatrican questioning me, doubting me.

I am bravely or stupidly going back to a GI that did and endoscopy on me with negative results 3 years ago, hopefully I can question him without going "Hey, buddy! Did you do that endoscopy right?"

Yea, there was an earlier thread about if anyone tested negative from Enterolabs. I have heard of a couple so far.

      Have Tru Joy Sweets Choco Chews been discontinued??

      But M&M's contain milk, and would not be at all like a Tootsie Roll.

      I appreciate you validating me because medical is an issue and it's not ok at all they they do this. Some days I just want to call the news media and just call out these doctors especially when they are supposed to be specialist Downplaying when gluten-free when they should know gluten-free is false negative. Now dealing with other issues and still crickets...

      I see it everyday on my feeds. They go out and buy gluten-free processed products and wonder why they can't heal their guts. I don't think they take it as a serious immune disease. They pick up things off the internet which is so far out in left field. Some days I would just like to scream. So much better when we had support groups and being able to teach...

While I get heartburn at night from commercial dairy milk, I do not from 'grassmilk'.

I just had an EMA blood test because I haven't had one since my Doctor moved away.  Got test results today, doctor ordered a D3 vitamin test.  Now you know what  type of doctors we have.  Now I will have to pay for this test because she just tested my D3 end of December, and still have no idea about my EMA.
