Was My Son Glutened

Yesterday, my son had to take an pie to school for math class, cause they were discussing pi, i told him he would not be able to eat the banana cream pie. Well him being the teenager that he is, he ate some of the pie, but said i didnt touch the crust so i thought i would be ok. The other day he ate an breakfast burritoe and didnt eat the tortialla and said he thought he would be ok to, but it only hurt a tiny bit that day. he came home last night in tears from the pain.

But now i sit here and wonder, is he gluten intolerant or lactose intolerant. Since it was the cream in the pie that made him so sick.

We dont have an diagnoses for him yet, so i am still confused. I just know that I and his teacher saw an improvement when he was eatling less gluten and drinking soy milk.

What would you all think, gluten or lactose, or maybe a little bit of both? What do u think i should do next. Im thinking maybe seeing an allergy dr, or how do u test for lactose intolerant. Our appt with the ped Gi isnt til april 11.

He also said his poop is floating and very stinky

any help i would appreciate

Eating the pie filling and not the crust, to me is the same as eating gluten. You may have heard many here say that you just can't take the croutons off the salad - a new clean salad is a must.

I suspect that you step son glutened himself. I am sorry for for his distress. :(

Also, in addition the lactose is absorbed on the tips of the villi, if he had damage to his villi, he could very well be reacting to the lactose.

That is what i told him, even if it is by each other, u can get sick. But he is still having a hard time with this all. I am so happy he starts spring break after today, I can keep an eye on him and have time to sit down and have an long talk with him, I even bought him the cleiacs for dummy book, and i bought me the Dr Green book, they should be both in next week. I think if he reads more about it, he will finally start to listen to me. And I am so happy he will be home to watch The View on wednesday, i think that will help to.

He was sick this morning, but he wanted to go to school today, he has an wrestling meet after school. I am so happy i will be at the meet tonight to make sure he is ok.

      Celiac getting dentures

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      Fighting for a name

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.
