Nicole may also hasve Periodic fever also along with the celiac.

Her rheumatologist told me to write down her fevers and if she has any symptoms with them.

So far here are a few,What do you think:

6-9-06 fever 102-105

8-8-06 fever 103-105

10-9-06 fever 101-103

Thanks for any advfice. She doesn't have another appt there until the middle of december so she should have at least 1 more fever if it follows the order.

I know this is far fetched, but I was wondering if the fevers might be triggered by some sort of allergy. Is something happening periodically that might be missed - Like the exterminator coming or something? I tend to run a low fever when my allergies are really bad. Just trying to help you think of things!

I have tried to figure it out. But I know the season doesn't matter because it is year round. And they started when we live in our old place.

I posted somewhere else in her that her IgE levels are very high for some unknown reason and it is not Celiac related.

Her IgE is 272 and the norm is <30

Thanks for the help I will keep you updated.

      Sorry, I think I got you mixed up with another poster.

      I hadn't been eating gluten free before having the antibody test done. I started eating gluten free after having the test done because the gastro PA told me to eat gluten-free for 6 months. I'm now 3 months in.

      I tend to agree with RMJ. Your doc took the reasonable and practical approach to diagnosis. All things considered, it was the right way to go. However, if you have first degree relatives that show signs of possible celiac disease, urge them to get formally tested before they start the gluten free diet.

      It sounds like you have a very reasonable GI doctor, who diagnosed you based on family history and symptoms after eating gluten. I would consider you lucky! The other option would be to make yourself very sick by doing weeks of a gluten challenge prior to an endoscopy.
