Daughter And Symptoms...

:( I was just diagnosed with celiac disease - saw the nutritionist today. Anyway, we are awaiting the blood screening on my 11-year-old daughter. I am seriously wondering if she has celiac too. She has always had a funny tummy - lots of spitting up as a baby. She also will sometimes vomit after a meal - no real reason; she's certainly not sick.

Anyway, here are other concerns we have with her... acne (pretty severe for one so young; nothing works on it), mood problems (we're talking severe), ADHD-like symptoms, unexplained hives/rashes, asthma, allergies, nosebleeds... That's just what I can think of right now.

Has anyone else seen anything like this in their children or themselves? Thanks!

Sounds like classis gluten responses to me. For me, my acne only goes away if I stay away from dairy. They say acne isn't caused by food, but staying away from dairy has been a miracle for my skin. I also use Toms of Maine soap and even though I have dry skin, it doesn't irritate it. Good luck!

Sure have, myself and both my kids. I would give her a good try on the diet no matter what the testing reveals. You may find yourself with a completely different kid in a relatively short time.

      Gluten Free Sugar or Starch known to increase gas?

      I noticed when eating some gluten-free foods I get increase of gas. I read it can be due to starches or sugar. But is there a particular name of the sugar or starch known to cause increase of gas to look in the ingredients to avoid. Thanks

Having good and bad days but recently having a bout of lower back pain, bloating, some abdominal discomfort with a feeling of pressure. She’s doing her best with gluten free and finally has an appointment with the dietitian this week, also waiting to have several blood tests done. Have told her it takes time for things to settle but she’s worried it might be recurrence of an ovarian cyst from 2/3 years ago.

      Sugar intolerance 10 years into gluten-free diet

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @science enthusiast Christi! I don't have a problem with disaccharides but I do with polysaccharides and complex carbohydrates which are so common in many gluten free processed foods. Gar gum, xanthan gum, pea fiber, chicory root, inulin etc. All those "prebiotics".
