Hi! Welcome to the board. I'm also 15, and I've been on here for what feels like forever (more like 2 1/2 years). I was diagnosed in February 2004, after being sick for a long time, as well. If you've been doing this for six months, you probably don't have many questions, but if you have any or just want to talk, ask away. :)

This board draws 15 year-olds. :lol: I'm 15 too, at least for only two more months. You'll love it here, it's a really helpful place. Dxed for over a year and it gets easier along the way. If you need anything, you know what to do. :) This a good place to learn, and possible rant if you're down and out.

Welcome Kassie!

I'm Danielle and I'm 21. I was diagnosed around the same time as you, and I'm glad that your feeling better! I remember reading your mom's posts about you and your sister. BTW, how's Tianna doing? I hope she's improving.

Anyways, you have joined a great group of people, and if you have any questions, don't be afraid to ask.

Danielle

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      Is there a digestive enzyme that helps build a healthier gut? I see people taking them but not sure what really works

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped".

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong. yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped". Your Serum IGA 01 (aka, "total IGA") at 245 mg/dl is within normal range, indicating you are not IGA deficient. But I also think it would be wise to take your doctor's advice about the sucraid diet and avoiding dairy . . . at least until you experience healing and your gut has had a chance to heal, which can take around two years. After that, you can experiment with adding dairy back in and monitor symptoms. By the way, if you want the protein afforded by dairy but need to avoid casein, you can do so with whey protein powder. Whey is the other major protein in dairy.
