He told me to go ahead and set up a doctor appointment, and he wants me to email him some information. I need the most useful, simple, and accurate information from the most reputable sources. Any suggestions?

Oh yeah, and his girlfriend is a nurse and he says they have a friend whose a doctor who he wants to talk to about this. He'll most likely show them whatever I give him, and if they try to discredit it, he'll be much much more likely to accept whatever his girlfriend and the doctor tell him than any information I give him, so reputability/credibility of the source is extremely important.

I'm not exactly sure what a doctor would take seriously. My GI recommended this site. But, my only doctor friend scoffs at most websites that have "medical" information on them. I wonder if it would be best to take the father to a consultation with your son's doctor?

Thanks. :)

Here's what I have so far:

Here are some links to information about Celiac Disease. An important thing to note about the symptom lists is that people with Celiac Disease won't have all of the symptoms (in fact, there are people with Celiac Disease who don't have any symptoms).

      Other symptoms that Celiac Disease can cause but resemble other diseases so the cause may be misdiagnosed. What Are the Symptoms of Celiac Disease?

      Thanks Scott. They are gluten-free but cross contaminated.

      Hi there @MCAyr I have a small umbilical hernia which came about during my second pregnancy.   I can just about see it, and feel it, when I stand or sit, but it is far less noticeable when I lie down.  I always know when I am putting on weight because I can get pain and burning near the site, funnily enough not on the hernia itself but either side!  I would imagine bloating could cause the same effect as weight gain. In my case I don't think it is my bowel protruding but a bit of fat  - sorry,  I realise this isn't painting a very pretty picture.  But in truth it is scarcely noticeable.  It has never really got bigger in size. I was rather hoping that it could be operated on but here in the UK they don't seem to operate on every hernia anymore.  My GP isn't remotely worried about it. In a way, I should be thankful - it is like an early warning system that I need to go on a diet! Cristiana

      The hernia description would likely be unrelated to celiac disease, but you'd need to get it checked out by your doctor to be sure it's a hernia.
