Hi I'm new to this site. My 5 year old son, Ryan, is in the process of being diagnosed with Celiac. He had a blood test 3 months ago, and we found out today when we saw the GI doctor that it was inconclusive. That 2 of the tests were not valid b/c he has some protien in his blood that is on the low side and can effect the test. However, the 3rd one showed high levels and needed to be looked into. He did another blood test today and if the numbers are still high, he is going to do an Endoscopy and find out for sure if he has it or not.

So, when I was googling info about this disease I found this website. I decided to join to find out some info, so if he does end up having it, I can be prepared. Hope to meet other moms who have kids with it. :)

      Yes, if you are convinced gluten is causing you problems then it would seem to come down to NCGS but you may also have other intolerances.

      There are huge categories of gluten-free foods, are there any particular types of foods that you are trying to find?

      Ended up demanding HLA and I’m negative for both. So assuming this is NCGs now? PCP seems unsure and GI is referring to genetics which I don’t get.  about to lose my mind

      You are definitely not alone aftertastes and denser interiors are really common with gluten-free baking. Oat and tigernut flours are great choices, and tweaks like extra egg or adjusting hydration are exactly the kind of trial and error that usually leads to better texture over time.
