I Glutened My Daughter :-(

i thought that the Delimex Taquitos were ok as long as they were the ones in corn tortillas, obviously.....but after my daughter started complaining of being nauseated i read the box and found out tonight that the beef and cheese kind are not ok. im sure this is old news to most everyone else on here but we are still fairly new to this. it was totally my fault for not reading the box before i gave them to her. they use wheat flour in the seasoning, ugh!!! i feel just awful! I've got her drinking decaf chamomile tea right now to settle her tummy...any other suggestions??

My daughter dehydrates fast so watch for that (leg tenderness is her first sign of dehydration). We give her pedialyte and it helps quickly.

We do peppermint tea but I bet chamomile is just as good!

Don't beat yourself up about it. Everyone makes mistakes. I put a new sunblock on my daughter the other day without checking it. She turned bright red and bumpy in minutes. Darn stuff had oats in it. Ugh. :(

It happens to the best of us. But I understand that you feel much worse having glutened your child than glutening yourself.

The chamomile tea is a great idea, as it is very soothing. There really isn't much you can do other than be there for her and waiting it out. And reading ALL ingredients lists from now on! :rolleyes:

You know I don't think the chicken ones are any better. I did the same thing to my daughter. Sick Sick Sick. I also bought the wrong kind of Dorritos once. She'll forgive you. Don't worry, things happen and now you know.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
    • Scott Adams
      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.    
    • Scott Adams
      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?
