19 Month Old Vomits From Rice

My son tried eating rice cereal around four months old and started to vomit about two hours later.... this would last for about six hours (until we got to the bile) and then he would be fine (other then really tired). We tried oatmeal cereal with the same results. This is still going on, but he can now eat some breads. Does he have celiac disease? He is about to go through tests, but I just want to get some feed back from you all (please). About your experience, especially in babies.

He is healthy... I have been feeding him Pediasure two times a day, juice, and milk. He associates eating with vomiting so he is somewhat sceptical of eating. I still encourage him to eat veggies and fruit.

I appreciate any help you all can give.

Thank you Thank you!!!

Just to let you know then if you are having the testing then make sure he is hving gluten for at least 3 weeks in advance

Ok dont mind me but I am going to be blunt here. How old is your son now? And why did you try feeding him cereal at 4 months old... Now this is in a way the pot calling the kettle black, but you should probably wait till 6 months to start solids... A lot of the time it is not so much an allergy as the childs body just is not developed enough to handle solids. We started our son on solids at just over 2 months because he was drinking almost 40oz of breastmilk/formula a day but even then we didn't push solids it was only if he wanted them and he didn't start eating them regularily till 6 months or so... Our daughter started at about 6 months but didn't realy get into eating till about 9 months... She could care less.

I would check for things like a dairy allergy. Because it seems odd that he woudl react to rice and oatmeal both if it was Celiac. Rice can be hard to digest though for really young babies so maybe that isn't an allergy as he's just not ready. There are also problems like piloric stinosis (not sure if that is spelled right) it is an abnormality where they have something wrong with thier intestines and it causes babies to vomit everything, it is more common in boys then it girls. I would check that option also...

I'm no expert but I have been through a lot with both my kids and it has taken a long time to get diagnosis on both of them for being sick, but that has given me a lot fo information. lol

Good luck! Hope you get an easy answer!

      Daughter has started gluten free diet this week as per gastroenterologists suggestion. However says she feels more tired and like she’s been hit by a train. I suggested it could be the change to gluten free or just stress from the endoscopy last week catching up with her. Just wondering if feeling more tired is a normal reaction at this stage. I suppose it’s possible some gluten might have been present without realising. Have tried to reassure her it’s not going to resolve symptoms overnight

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.
