Are These The Right Tests?

[NewtoGF]

Tissue Transglutaminase Ab IgA

Endomysial Ab IgA Titer not done because other test was neg.

Gliadin Peptide Ab IgA

Gliadin Peptide Ab IgG

So, looks like Doc only did three tests and not full panel. Soooo irritating.

All tests came back neg.

I'm not going to bother with Docs or blood tests unless someone has a convincing reason to continue with medical diagnosis. I took him off gluten last Thur. and we'll see how it goes. I told my son that we would give it two months. He is desperately hoping the diet won't work. Poor thing!

Thanks for everyones posts. I have been trying new recipes and searching out foods that you all suggest. I bought Gifts of Nature, Inc.'s Certified Gluten-Free Rolled Oats for 12.99 for 2.75 lb at Wild Oats today. He was excited to be able to have oatmeal for breakfast.

I took him off of soy milk months ago because I didn't realize how much estrogen is in soy. The breast bud that was developing is practically gone. He won't try other milk (cow, rice etc....) Not sure what to do about that one. He was diagnosed with milk and egg allergy -triggers for his asthma at age 1. Now they say he has outgrown that, so I have tried cows milk, but won't budge. I feel bad for him. I'm trying to make our search for good food fun for him. He has helped make quite a few things, but not eaten many of them.

Anyway- thanks for reading
