Awsome news! I know how excited you are!!! When my youngest finally started to gain weight I was so excited I told everybody I know. MOst of them thought I was nuts, and even after explaining celiacs and food allergies and all the issues, most of the people think I am slightly touched in the head! hahahaha i don't care. Just great to see your kids make a change in a positive direction for health!!

That's awesome!! I'd love to see my daughter gain some weight. Was it all from the gluten-free diet?

Yes she was on just the gluten free diet. Its amazing to see that just taking out the gluten did great things. she had bad stomic pains, reflux from birth, constipation and throw up at less once a week and all that is gone now. she is healthy and a great kid. :P

      yes, i told my brother that, but he’s fine with never getting an official diagnosis he says! he doesn’t often take my advice LOL

      I'm 63 and was diagnosed in 2010. Prior to diagnosis I was suspected of having to strokes and medicated according each time. A neurologist called me in to discuss my scan. From that discussion I had a camera down and celiac disease was confirmed. I suffered continued pain and numbness down my left side and was offered amitriptyline, and antidepressants that was also diagnosed for nerve pain. I said no as I didn't want the stigma of being on antidepressants. Seven years later I begged my GP to prescribe them and my life was changed almost immediately. If I'm glutened accidentally whilst eating out then my nerves pain/symptoms get worse but it's nothing compared to taking the medication and feeling a little drowsy every now and then.  The best of luck for the future.

      @jenniber, it would be pointless for your brother to get tested for celiac disease if he has already gone gluten free. Doing so invalidates the testing. He would need to undergo a "gluten challenge". That is, he would need to go back to consuming generous amounts of gluten (at least 10g daily, or the amount found in about 4-6 slices of wheat-based bread) for several weeks leading up to the day of the blood draw.
